Details like the wooden chassis, aluminum knobs, and double core DSP circuitry deliver both tactile luxury and future-ready power—this platform adapts as your musical ambitions grow.

Ultimate Playability—Hammer Action and Polyphony

For pianists, tactile response is everything. The LEGEND '70s MKII Artist W delivers with an 88-key, velocity-sensitive hammer action keyboard using real wood keys. Triple-sensor detection ensures nuanced velocity and dynamic control, closely matching the feel of a concert grand. High polyphony (128 voices for the acoustic piano module) guarantees full chordal expression and complex arrangements without note-stealing or dropouts.

• Keys Number: 88 — full piano range for repertoire flexibility
• With hammer action and velocity sensitivity, you get authentic touch and expressive detail for advanced technique
• Polyphony: 128 — supports dense passages and complex layering without compromise

Advanced Sound Engines and Expansion

Sound is generated using both physical modeling (for electric piano and clavi modules) and high-definition sampling (for acoustic piano and collection modules). The dual-DSP main circuit offers expanded processing power, enabling richer, more detailed sounds and supporting future module releases. Modular architecture gives each engine dedicated processing, maintaining consistent performance regardless of module count.

• Keyboard Technology: Hammer Action — professional feel for demanding techniques
• Physical modeling and HD sampling deliver dynamic vintage and modern sounds with remarkable realism
• Triple-sensor key detection: enables precise velocity response for expressive phrasing

Connectivity and Effects for the Stage and Studio

Comprehensive I/O includes dual stereo main and aux outputs, MIDI in/out and USB to host, four pedal inputs, pitch/modulation wheels, and a 3.5mm audio input for playback. The built-in effects engine offers reverb (room, hall, plate, spring, tape), tremolo, vibrato, chorus, flanger, phaser, wah-wah, amp simulators, rotary, delay, EQ, and compressor. Players can store up to 384 programs and manage setlists for live convenience.
