I30 Interactive Music Workstation
Featuring 488 new sound programs and 176 new styles, KORG's latest interactive music workstation is more powerful than ever, with a gigantic selection of high-quality sounds and music data. The i30 features an even wider range of musical Styles and with 64-voice capability, the i30 gives you more power for realtime performance, entertainment, or music production.
A Multitude Of New Sound
With a gigantic 18 Mbytes of PCM data, the i30 is packed with high-quality sounds covering all instruments and musical needs. New piano sounds, drums, percussion, brass and guitar have been added to make the i30 the best-sounding of our i-Series keyboards. The 320 programs + 32 drum programs in the i30 include GM (General MIDI) compatible sound programs.The User area is RAM, allowing you to store 128 programs + 8 drum programs that include your favorite edits to sounds and drum kits along with your own programming efforts. Plus, two completely independent digital multi-effect units are built-in, offering 47 effects variations (24 types).
A Versatile, Musical Database
The i30's database of musical Styles equips you with an easy way to create professional-level backing parts. The i30 provides a maximum of 176 Styles. Its internal memory can contain a staggering 1760 different Style Elements, covering a wide variety of musical genres, from the latest musical trends such as techno, club, rock, and pop, to traditional music.
The i30 includes ten preset keyboard scales, including Arabic and Kirnberger, to match any style of music, and you can even create and store 32 user scales.
The I30’s Arrangements Back You Up
The i30's backing part "Arrangements" make it easy for you to enjoy automatic accompaniment and speedy music production. While the Style specifies the musical genre and performance, an Arrangement is the equivalent of a band ensemble, specifying the sound played by each part, and volume, pan and effects settings. In addition to the 128 built-in Arrangements, you can create and store 128 Arrangements of your own.
The i30 lets you divide the keyboard into three parts (Main, Sub and Lower), and control each independently. The Chord Sound function allows the chordal sound and the bass note to continue playing even when the automatic accompaniment is stopped. In addition to its fade-in/out and ritardando/accelerando features, the i30 has an Ensemble function which automatically adds an appropriate harmony to your single-note melodic playing.
Speed Up Music Production
The i30's musically revolutionary Backing Sequence mode can be found only on KORG's interactive music workstations. Simply by playing a chord sequence, you can record a performance of up to six parts while switching variations and adding fill-ins when desired. Counter-melodies and other parts can be recorded on the five extra tracks. Data that is created using the Backing Sequence function can be saved to disk in SMF format. Since the i30 also contains a full-fledged 16-track sequence, this SMF data can be edited in greater detail using the internal sequencer or an external sequencer.
Superb Operation Advantages
In addition to its large and easy-to-use TouchView Graphical User Interface,the front panel provides nine sliders for adjusting the output volume balance. In conjunction with the Play/Mute keys, these sliders give you instant control of the melody and backing volumes even during a performance. Dedicated switches are also provided for Fade In/Out, Ritardando, Ensemble, and KBD Lock.
Plus, the i30's TO HOST (PC I/F) connector lets you connect it directly to your computer. (A separately sold cable and MIDI driver software AG-001/002 is required.)
You can also have an optional I30-HDD internal 1 GB hard disk installed for storage of internal data such as SMF data, Styles, and Arrangements. (For details and installation, please contact an authorized KORG dealer.)

Keysound reviews
Yamaha Genos 2 Keyboard
From start to finish, my experience with Keysound was nothing short of exceptional. Delivery was easy, with my keyboard arriving as promised on time and in perfect condition. A good explanation of the Genos 2 was given to me on delivery and everything was setup ready to go. The USB they provided was helpful in exploring the capabilities of my new keyboard.
Any enquiries I had were met with prompt and friendly responses, and they went above and beyond to ensure that I had all the information I needed.
Overall, based on my experience, I would recommend Keysound for their combination of knowledge, reliability, and excellent customer service.
Korg EK50L Keyboard
Cannot find fault on service and prices. Will never use any other dealer.
Yamaha CSP295-PE Piano
Keysound are the most knowledgeable And helpful people ever I cannot rate them high enough. Our Piano was delivered on time and the guys told me at the time that the packaging was damaged when they unpacked the piano they found it to be damaged and told me before I even seen it. I had the choice to send it back then or keep it until the replacement was found. I kept it within two weeks. I’ve got a Piano. First rate service all around. I would highly recommend them
Yamaha PSRSX600 Keyboard
Absolutely fantastic service from Steve at Keysound. Expert advice, really friendly and helpful. Will be going back to store for some add ons very soon!
Korg PA5X Bonus USB Accessories
The service was extreme good in the item was downloaded to me almost immediate after my payment had been cleared into a USB stick.
No problem in transferring the information form the USN to the Pa5c
Yamaha CSP275-WH Piano
Couldn't fault it the delivery team took the old piano away and set up the new one in half an hour.
Yamaha PS500P-B Piano
Excellent service. Knowledgeable staff who are very helpful. No high pressure sales tactics. Straight forward and honest.
Installation team also excellent.
Yamaha YDP165-R Piano
Great service from knowledgeable people well worth a visit to see your purchasing, Staff first clay
Roland Fantom 06 Keyboard
I have purchased several keyboards from Keysound , and you always get a good service. You get a more personal experience, and they are always willing to take time to find you the best keyboard which suits your needs. After sales is also good, as they will help you with your new keyboard should you get stuck on anything.
Yamaha Pre-Owned Genos XL Keyboard
Nothing too much trouble and great after sales support and assistance.
Korg PA5X61 Keyboard
Great personalised friendly service, extremely knowledgeable of the products. I would recommend Keysound, especially to those who require additional support or aftercare with the products they purchase.
Casio CTX5000 Keyboard
Keysound were excellent. Other music shops take a generic approach about what people want and they have limited experience across multiple types of instruments. Keysound were interested in me and exacty what I wanted. They interpreted that and gave me invaluable advice. It was friendly, focused and specific. I would definitely recommend them and buy from then again. I also really like their view that buying a keyboard from them is just the start of the journey. They are there for in-person and online/on phone advice and help. I am extremely pleased with my purchase - which is not what I thought I'd be buying when I entered their shop.
Kawai CN301-B Piano
Very knowledgeable and helpful to make sure we got the correct piano for us
Yamaha Genos 2XL Keyboard
Steve and his staff were excellent. They spent a lot of time explaining and demonstrating various digital pianos and keyboards. After a few days deliberating I chose a different option to what I had set out to buy. The knowledge and service was second to none and inspired me to become a better player. I am very pleased with my purchase and looking forward to many hours of keyboard playing. Thank you
Roland HP702-CH Piano
I am so pleased I chose to visit Keysound Hinckley and purchase my new piano from them!!
I went in store to browse as I haven't bought a new piano in about 15 years, and the person who helped me (Sorry, I didn't get his name!) was so so helpful and knowledgable. I purchased my piano and within a week got the call to arrange delivery the following weekend!
The piano is amazing, but unfortunately has an issue with one of the keys. And rather than sending someone over to fix it, the manager called me yesterday to say they'll arrange for the piano to be replaced with a new one!! He said he would be happy if a brand new piano already had an issue, so he'd rather I have a brand new one. Honestly, couldn't ask for better service and nicer people :) Thank you so so much.
Roland HP704-DR Piano
Good customer service from staff who knew their product. Plenty of time given for testing each instrument and making up mind.
Yamaha Pre-Owned P515-B Piano
Keysounds service was absolutely Fantastic, I can not rate them highly enough. The Piano I really wanted was unfortunately discontinued, they called me to explain in person and then managed not only find a preowned one that was in brand new condition but they found all the correct packaging so when I received it I thought it was actually brand new! That showed a level of care and customer service I haven’t seen for years! They also immediately refunded a portion of the cost which was a bonus as I could then buy the stool l wanted ( not from Keysounds )
If all companies delivered care & Service like Keysounds it would be a far better Country for everyone! Well done
Yamaha Genos2 Keyboard
Excellent service would highly recommend. I have purchased several keyboards from keysounds. All staff are very knowledgeable and very helpful. Will talk you through any problems in finding things in a new keyboard and lots of patience.. would not shop anywhere else.
Roland HP704-DR Piano
There was no pressure, neither did we feel pushed to buy the most expensive choice.
The sa;salesman was also knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
We felt listened to and in safe hands.
Yamaha CLP775-B Piano
Very helpful visit to the store allowed the chance to play digital pianos from all leading manufacturers, as well as discussions with staff. When we settled on a product delivery was quick and full installation carried out by Keysound's team. Very happy to support a local retailer that provides such excellent service.
