A Piano to Fit Your Life
With its matte black finish and minimalist flat-top design, the E1 Air quietly conceals its identity as a digital piano. Echoing the form of a contemporary console table, it brings understated refinement to any room without commanding attention. Every element has been carefully considered, even the pedals are finished in matching black, creating a seamless and premium impression.
At just 35cm deep, the E1 Air is thoughtfully designed to fit comfortably in smaller spaces, whether in a living room, bedroom, or studio. Wherever it’s placed, it enhances the environment not only with its sound, but through its refined design.
Beneath its slim profile, the E1 Air features a strong, stable structure that supports confident playing, even during more dynamic passages. This internal design also enhances the acoustic response, allowing the speakers to deliver clear, focused sound with remarkable depth and clarity.
Made in Japan – Premium Quality You Can Trust
From the keyboard to the cabinet, every E1 Air is crafted in Japan with meticulous attention to detail and expert craftsmanship. This commitment to quality ensures lasting reliability, giving you an instrument built to be enjoyed for years.
The Sound of Two Italian Concert Grands
Piano 1 offers a bright, transparent tone that suits a wide range of genres, from classical to pop. Its balanced sound makes it perfectly suited for daily practice, composition, and recording.
Piano 2 is a newly sampled full concert grand with a spacious, expressive tone. Rich in nuance and natural ambience, it captures the feeling of performing in a concert hall. From delicate pianissimo to powerful fortissimo, it responds with the full emotional range of an acoustic grand, making it especially well-suited for expressive solo playing or performance preparation.
Enjoy 30 high-quality instrument sounds and studio effects
In addition to its stunning Italian grand piano voices, the E1 Air offers a versatile selection of 30 high-quality sounds, including electric pianos, organs, clavinet, vibraphone, acoustic guitar, strings, and more. Each sound is richly expressive and thoughtfully crafted. To enhance your performance, three studio-grade effects are available: brilliance, reverb, and chorus. Every preset is carefully matched with ideal effect settings, so you can simply select a sound and start playing with confidence.
Authentic Acoustic Piano Feel
Damper Resonance
The Italian grand piano, Classic piano, Jazz piano, Hall piano, and Ballad piano sounds faithfully recreate the “damper resonance” effect – the subtle, sympathetic vibrations of the strings that occur when the damper pedal is pressed. This detail brings added depth and realism to the playing experience, capturing the nuanced behavior of an acoustic piano.
Key-off Simulation
Key-off simulation reproduces the subtle sounds produced when fingers release the keys, adding another layer of realism to the playing experience. Together with damper resonance, it brings greater depth and authenticity to every performance.
RH3 Keyboard
The E1 Air features Korg’s Real Weighted Hammer Action 3 (RH3) keyboard, designed to replicate the nuanced feel of a grand piano. The key weight is graded across the range, offering a heavier touch in the lower register that becomes lighter toward the top – just like an acoustic instrument. Highly responsive to fast repetition and subtle dynamics, the RH3 accurately captures the full expression of your performance. Key touch control offers five selectable sensitivity levels (light, normal, heavy, stable, fixed), allowing you to tailor the response to your personal playing style.
Full 3-Pedal System with Half-Pedal Support
E1 Air includes a full three-pedal system – damper, soft, and sostenuto – just like a traditional piano. Both the damper and soft pedals support half-pedaling, enabling greater nuance and control over your expression. The pedal positioning has also been carefully refined to provide a more natural and comfortable playing experience.
Stereo Sound Optimizer
The Stereo Sound Optimizer creates a sense of natural acoustic presence when playing with headphones. It enhances spatial depth and realism, ensuring a more immersive and comfortable listening experience, even during longer sessions.
Seamless Connectivity
Bluetooth audio support
Connect your smartphone or other Bluetooth device to the E1 Air and play along with your favorite songs or backing tracks. When not in use as a piano, the E1 Air doubles as a high-quality Bluetooth speaker system, adding even more versatility to your space.
USB MIDI/AUDIO
Using a standard USB cable*, the E1 Air connects to your smartphone, tablet, or computer for expanded creative possibilities. Use it as a MIDI controller to trigger external sound modules, record your performance as MIDI data, or play audio from your device directly through the E1 Air’s built-in speakers. *A USB cable (sold separately) is required to connect to a PC, smartphone, or tablet. For iPhone or iPad, a Lightning-USB camera adapter (sold separately) may be needed, depending on the device.
EvoTone: A New Chapter in Sound Evolution
Great sound is about more than high-quality samples. It depends on every part of the signal path, including how power is delivered. EvoTone is Korg’s dedicated internal power system, developed specifically for digital pianos. Unlike the standard AC adapters used by many brands, EvoTone provides clean, consistent power that reduces noise, minimizes distortion under dynamic load, and allows the full tonal range of the instrument to shine through. It marks a first for Korg digital pianos and is a significant advancement in sound design. EvoTone improves attack response, enhances dynamic expression, and preserves even the subtlest musical details with exceptional clarity, especially in gentle passages and more nuanced performances.
Precision Speaker Design for a True Piano Experience
The E1 Air features a meticulously tuned speaker system that faithfully reproduces the depth and brilliance of an acoustic piano. The result is sparkling highs, warm lows, and a balanced midrange delivered with clarity and presence. Every detail, from materials and mounting structure to enclosure design, has been refined for maximum musicality.
Form Meets Function: An Acoustically Tuned Cabinet
The new cabinet is more than just a visual statement. It plays a key role in shaping the instrument’s sound. Its rigid and tightly sealed construction helps control speaker resonance and improves definition across the frequency range. To ensure direct, clear projection, the speakers are positioned at the front of the unit, preventing muffling even when placed against a wall. With a built-in power supply, the E1 Air eliminates the need for an external adapter, keeping your setup clean and unobtrusive – ideal for smaller spaces.
Smart Features for Learning & Creativity
Two-track song recorder to instantly record your performance
The E1 Air includes a two-track digital recorder, making it easy to capture your playing at any moment. You can record each hand separately. With adjustable playback tempo and space for up to 99 user songs, it’s a powerful tool for practice, review, and creative exploration.
A variety of keyboard layout options
– Split Mode
Assign a different sound to each hand (e.g. bass in the left, piano in the right for jazz)
– Layer Mode
Combine two sounds, such as piano and strings, for a rich orchestral combination.
– Partner Mode
Divide the keyboard into two identical ranges, each with its own damper pedal. This mode is ideal for teacher-student lessons, allowing both players to perform in the same register side by side.
Forty piano songs with helpful features for practicing
Alongside 10 demonstration songs that showcase the different sounds of the E1 Air, there are also 40 built-in piano songs. Practice at your own pace with adjustable tempo, separate playback for left- and right-hand parts, and A-B repeat for focused repetition of challenging sections.
Built-in metronome for precise practice
The E1 Air includes an essential metronome function to support accurate timing during practice. It can be turned on or off with a single touch.
