The description for this keyboard says it has "Eight faders perfect for adjusting volume or synth parameters". I only see one. Is that a misprint?

I think they may be referring to the 8 knobs on the top of the controller, there is one fader on the top left of the controller.

No faders as in sliders. there are knobs at the top. in the middle this keepboard is not cheap. its good quality

I'm on the road at the moment without it but I'm sure that no, it doesn't. It has a fair number of temperaments available, while unfortunately 1/4 comma meantone is not one of them. Only 1/6 comma E- or D#. I seem to be playing more and more in 1/4 comma so that's a bit of a downer. I'm not even sure that Just Intonation is a temperament, as the pure intervals move with the chords being played through all keys in just. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a tuner that can do it, maybe an iPhone app, but I think the only way the Korg would be able to do it is to use the temperament closest to pure for the notes you want to check and then know how much to add or subtract when you are reading the meter. Good question though. It makes me think.... It's been a great tuner for me other than the 1/4 comma problem, where I've had to set the frets with a ruler and then make small adjustments to whatever keyboard instrument is there. It's survived several drops from the music stand and the batteries seem to last forever.

I'm not sure, as I am unfamiliar with with the synthesizers you have. The smallest keyboard that I have pkaced on the stand is 49 keys (Akai MPK49).

Yes. The crossfader has options to switch to the kind of curve settings you want. Its a good mixer. Moreover the faders are smooth like butter since its a fully digital midi enabled mixer.

It works BEST live, since you can't sequence any of its knobs/sliders.You can sync the built-in sequencer to an external source (MIDI or CV/Trigger) to control what notes play and when, but you're tweaking the knobs in realtime.The keys are not weighted, but the synth doesn't respond to velocity so I don't think you'll miss the weight.

Keys are full-size. Unfortunately if I play more than 2 keys at once, i.e. a simple 3 note chord, I get a very ugly sounding 4th note. Can't figure out if its a defect in the unit or if it's supposed to do that. I use it to practice choral music so I'm mostly a one note at time musician but sure would be nice to hear a chord without it sounding dissident.

Don't believe everything you read... Both statements are completely untrue. Sounds like someone who doesn't own or operate an SR-18 with the brain of a Hamster must have written that review you read. There is a button for BASS and a button for OFF... That's how you turn the bass off on a preset beat pattern. The "Transpose" button is how you change the bass key. Also check out Youtube demos on whatever product you are considering buying... They're all out there. Even the Hamsters with very bad advice should try this method... Amazon will refund your money if you're not happy with the machine... It's a win/win in my book. Don't believe everything you read... Both statements are completely untrue.

The keyboard does not have sounds or effects built in. Its purpose is to control computer software that makes the sounds. It DOES come with software (Pro Tools Express), and it should have reverb, delay, distortion, and phaser. But again, this keyboard only works with a computer. Chances are, you're looking for a "workstation" or "synthesizer".

This mixer does not have sufficient mono channels for your application. Channels 2-3 and 4-5 are stereo inputs (meaning they are contolled with the same fader). Some of the larger Xenyx mixers will get you the inputs you need.... something with at least 5 distinct faders to control each instrument's mix individually. Hope this helps. :-)

As DS-1H is Korg, it should work without any extra configuration. I have a different model of keyboard, but I think, your piano must have a Global settings or something similar. There you can find the damper pedal configuration. Select the right polarity to have the correct response. I hope it helps.

The only thing that mine does is to change from stereo to mono and it only does this when in FM mode. The manual states there are 11 presets, but it does not seem to be so. At least there are separate buttons for treble and bass anyway, which is good to have the control.

Maybe there are less expensive higher-function keyboards out there, but I have not found them. I used my first digital keyboard (61 keys) for 15 years.... the only reason I moved up earlier last year was to get a 77-key model. As I recall, most sounds and ryhthms were the same. The biggest change was a shift from a MIDI interface to a USB. I think this model is good for another dozen years.

hello! well i do recommend this for beginners in synthezizers, this one is of ´the simple ones`, but attention! this is not a toy, is a very powerfull machine, with wich you can do a lot of things. so if you are looking for a simple keyboard this is not for you. instead if you want to experiment with sounds and start to understand synthtezizers, this is a good start. this instrument will fit very well beginners but also experts who know how to train this little monster!

To be honest I use the keyboard as part of my band. I have never use it for what you are inquiring about. Cannot give any advice.

No not at all. It's a MIDI controller keyboard, not a standalone synth. The sound source is typically software-based running on a computer.

It works great in flstudio 10 and above, out of the box. the keys are not weighted but have a great response time and the pads are pretty amazing for a low budget piece of gear.http://d19ulaff0trnck.cloudfront.net/sites/default/files/novation/downloads/4647/launchkey-daw-setup-guide.pdf

250 different "sounds" or instruments, but it excels at the piano sound. I am not crazy about the others. It has 128 notes of polyphony, which is good, but somewhere around 200 would be ideal for advanced players if you don't want some sustained notes to drop out during complex pieces. As far as key noise, there is a little, but not noticeable unless you have on headphones, and others are just listening to "key noise". Not really a problem. Overall I give it a 7 of 10, but if I were to do it again, would probably spend more on a more advanced keyboard without all the superfluous bells and whistles. 250 different "sounds" or instruments, but it excels at the piano sound.
