The instrument features a sound bank of extremely realistic V.A.S.T. PC4 piano engine sounds. For synthesizer lovers, there's the Kore 64 bank, which also includes electric guitar, drum and percussion sounds. These will greatly expand your sound palette.
Another equally famous bank is KB3 ToneReal Organs. This builds on the classic Hammond, Vox and Farfisa organs. You can fine-tune these instruments to your exact liking with nine physical drawbars.
All of the sounds mentioned are neatly divided into 16 categories, each of which has its own button to instantly bring up the category: Piano 1 and 2, El. Piano 1 and 2, Pop Keys, Clavier, Organ, Brass, Strings, Voices, Synths, Pads, Guitar, Bass, Drums and Percussion.
The effects engine also offers plenty of possibilities. You will find hundreds of reverbs, choruses, flangers, delays, phasers, distortions, rotating speakers and much more. Also included is a Master Equalizer and Multiband Compressor.
Kurzweil PC4 allows you to layer and split different combinations of settings: 16 independently assigned sound zones and 16 assignable arpeggiators. The number of programmable physical controls is also interesting. One sustain/switch pedal and a USB cable are included.
On the back we also find a USB output for external memory storage and a USB interface for connecting to a PC/Mac for firmware updates or use as MIDI keys. In addition, the software editor allows you to edit all the functionality of the instrument.
The Kurzweil PC4 is a professional instrument for demanding musicians who do not intend to compromise on their sonic capabilities.
