The EK-50, KORG’s popular and approachable bread-and-butter keyboard with automatic accompaniment, is now available in a specialized model. It's equipped with high-volume speakers that can meet the needs of performing in a café or a small event on its own, without relying on a PA system.

In addition to the wealth of sounds from the EK-50 which support a wide range of musical genres, we've taken full advantage of the large speakers by adding sounds and backing styles for the latest dance music. The chassis now features a black rubberized finish that is not only sleek, but durable and wear-resistant.

The EK-50 L delivers limitless enjoyment and best-in-class sound with immediacy and ease.
