Den ultimate performance kontrolleren
Nytt design, og med et arsenal av Kurzweils siste
grensesprengende chipteknologi under panseret, gjør den 88 tangenters PC3X til
en kraftig workstation, med hele 128 stemmer med de beste lydene fra en av
verdens beste synthprodusenter. PC3X er Kurzweils ultimate performance
kontrollerkeyboard, med et enormt utvalg av fantastiske lyder, som er kombinert
med dagens krav til sanntids kontrollerfunksjoner.
I tilegg til den kjente Triple Strike Grand Piano, har PC3X hundrevis av
nye lyder; basser, trommer, gitarer, og synther, som alle er perfekt til enhver
stil og smak. Sammen med en stor samling vintage keyboardemuleringer, KB3 orgel
og over 250 orkestrale og strengeinstrumenter, kan alle og enhver finne det de
trenger til produksjonen. For å toppe det hele, er det også en 16 spors
sequencer og mer effektprosessering enn i den anerkjente KSP8 prosessoren, noe
som gjør PC3X til en fullblods workstation. Legg til USB, flash card port,
nydesignet vektet klaviatur, og nytt brukersnitt, og du har Kurzweils seneste
generasjon instrument.
Kurzweil designer, i motsetning til mange av konkurrentene, sine egne unike
chips-sett (ASICs) for alle produktene. De er ganske enkelt optimale for
maksimal audio opplevelse. Mange av konkurrentene bruker alminnelige DSP
chips-sett, som finnes i alt fra mobiltelefoner, klokker og Tv-er. Dette betyr
at all prosesseringskraften i Kurzweils chips-sett er dedikert til lyd, med null
forsinkelse (latency).
The Kurzweil Sound...
PC3X har mer enn 800 programmer, som virkelig hever listen for både
audiokvalitet og variasjon. Med de beste samplene i industrien, og kraftfull,
responsiv synthmotor som blåser liv i dem, føler man at man spiller på et ekte
instrument, og ikke bare samples.
Det er også inkludert den Classic Keys ROM- chipen, som gir et uvanlig stor
bibliotek av vintage keyboard under fingrene. De lett gjenkjennelige lydene til
disse klassiske elektromekaniske instrumentene, med alle sine karakteristiske
ujevnheter, er nøye reprodusert sammen med pedaler, forsterkere og høytalere.
Mellotroner, distede elektriske pianoer, og funky Clavinetter er der alle ved et
knappetrykk.
For ytterligere vintage følelse har PC3X også en meget avansert utgave av
Kurzweils kjente KB3 Mode tonehjuls orgelsimulator, som låter akkurat slik de
gode gamle orglene gjorde. I tilegg til nyutviklede Leslie effekter, og en ny
bank med B3 programmer, er det også nye klassiske Vox og Farfisa combo orgel.
PC3X har også 9 fadere som kan brukes som sanntids drawbarkontroller.
PC3X har også en egen ROM bank med orckestrale lyder i verdensklasse,
inkludert den nye String Section ROM banken, noe som gjør keyboardet ideelt til
å lage filmmusikk og soundtracks. Enhver artikulasjon og nyanse er med i
samplene med fiolin, viola, chello, og double bass.
Brukersnitt:
Selv om brukersnittet er kjent for de fleste Kurzweil-veteraner, er det
store forbedringer som er blitt gjort med bla. utvidelse av V.A.S.T.
arkitekturen. PC3Xs nye UI består blant annet av et bakgrunnsbelyst 240 x 64
segmenters display som gir all informasjon som trengs, i tilegg til de fysiske
knappene og faderne.
Alle programmer og oppsett vises sammen med hjelpemenyer som kan nåes ved å
trykke på en "Info" knapp. Disse hjelp beskjedene kan også inneholde
kontrollerrutinger, eller annen relevant informasjon; for eksempel, hvis lyden
er hentet fra en klassisk lyd eller plate.
Man kan også bevege på en kontroller mens man holder inne Cancel knappen,
og displayet vil fortelle hva den spesifikke kontrolleren gjør.
Effekter:
Med opp til 12 inserteffekter og to auxiliary sends, er PC3X mer enn
dobbelt så kraftig som den kjente KDFX motoren. Effekter kan kjedes sammen i
serier, eller distribueres via PC3X 16 multitimbrale kanaler. Dette er ganske
enkelt de beste effektene i bransjen, og består av alt fra råe vreng-effekter,
kompressorer, phasere, choruseffekter og reverb, til alt fra vintage emuleringer
til konserthaller med decay til komplett stillhet. Alle parameterne kan rutes
til hvilken som helst av PC3Xs sanntidskontrollere, det være seg fadere, pedaler
hjul og lignende.
Sequencer og arpeggiator:
PC3X har en 16 spors sequencer som er basert på K2 seriens sequencer.
Det er også fire uavhengige arpeggiatorer så vel som hundrevis av ferdig
innspilte beats og loops.

The Ultimate Performance Controller Keyboard
With a sleek new look on the outside, and an arsenal of Kurzweil's latest cutting edge chip technology under its hood, the 61-note PC361 delivers 128 voices of incredible sound quality along with a host of powerful, easy to use features. The PC361 is Kurzweil's ultimate performance controller keyboard, with an enormous collection of stunning sounds combined with comprehensive real-time controller functions.
In addition to our renowned Triple Strike Grand Piano, the PC361 features hundreds of new sounds; basses, drums, guitars, and synths suited for every style and taste, along with a collection of flawless vintage keyboard emulations, KB3 Mode and over 250 orchestral and string section programs.
The PC361's new Dynamic V.A.S.T. architecture is a huge step forward in synthesis, the fruit of several major strides we've made in improving processing power, flexibility and user-friendliness. Good news for synth enthusiasts - we've seamlessly integrated our legendary VA-1 Virtual Analog Synthesizer into the new system!
For good measure we include an unlimited-track sequencer with 960 PPQ resolution and more effects processing power than our acclaimed KSP8 processor, making the PC361 a full blown music production workstation. Add in USB, flash xD card port, a newly designed keyboard action, and a new intuitive user interface, and you've got the next generation of Kurzweil instruments.
It's a performance controller. It's a synthesizer. It's a workstation.
What's Inside...
One thing which clearly sets Kurzweil apart from the competition is the fact that we design our own chips (called ASICs) for all Kurzweil products. Simply put, our chips are customized for optimum audio performance. What does this mean for the end user? It means that all of the processing power in a Kurzweil chip is devoted exclusively to sound. It means no noticeable latency - the performance is always lightning fast. And most importantly, it translates into that rich, full, glitch-free sound for which Kurzweil has become famous. Yes developing our own chips is more expensive and more time consuming. We think it's well worth it. Once you've heard the PC361, we think you'll agree.
The Kurzweil Sound...
The PC361 offers an enormous sound set of over 850 programs, raising the bar once again for both audio quality and variety. With the best samples in the industry, and a powerful, responsive synth engine breathing life into them, you'll feel like you're playing an actual instrument, not just playing samples. Of course there's the famous Kurzweil Triple Strike Piano, with dozens of variations to accommodate every kind of player. All of the basic sounds - basses, guitars, drums, horns and synths - have been painstakingly programmed to reflect the needs of today's professional players, representing a broad selection of styles and flavors from the '60s, '70s, '80s, '90s and today.
Also included is our Classic Keys ROM, which puts an impossibly large vintage keyboard rig at your fingertips. These are vintage emulations which actually sound like vintage instruments and classic recordings. The recognizable sounds of those classic electromechanical instruments, with all of their characteristic imperfections, have been faithfully re-created, along with pedals, amps and speakers. Lush Mellotrons, growling electric pianos, and punchy Clavinets are all there at the touch of a button, programmed to sound just like those classic albums.
For more vintage firepower, the PC361 is equipped with the most advanced version of Kurzweil's widely lauded KB3 Mode tonewheel organ simulator, which screams, sputters and sizzles just like the original. In addition to newly developed Leslie effects, and a new bank of B3 programs, we've also included sounds from the classic Vox and Farfisa combo organs. The PC361's 9 sliders provide real-time drawbar control.
The PC361 offers a full range of world class orchestral sounds, including our new String Section ROM bank, making it ideal for film-scoring and soundtrack projects. Every type of articulation, every nuance has been captured, with samples of full and divisi sections of violins, violas, cellos, and double bass. The details, the warm swells, animated pizzicatos and the sound of scraping rosin all add to the breathtaking effect of these string sections. You can plug and play with sounds worthy of a finished production - instant gratification with uncompromising sound quality.
Dynamic V.A.S.T...
Under the hood of the PC361 is simply the most powerful synthesis engine ever created by Kurzweil. Dynamic V.A.S.T. picks up where the K series left off. Having up to 32 layers per program means that emulations of real instruments can be extremely detailed and accurate, while the synthesized sounds can be extraordinarily large and complex.
Expanding upon our V.A.S.T. architecture, the PC361's new architecture delivers more power and flexibility combined with unprecedented ease of use. Users can now create and store their own DSP algorithms, with nearly limitless possibilities for routing.
In another huge development, we've resurrected the VA-1 Virtual Analog Synthesizer, having built it's synthesis engine right into the new system. Hear the VA-1's power-shaped, anti-aliasing oscillators (including supersaw, triplesaw, and hard sync oscillators) combined with a newer, larger set of V.A.S.T. filters (like the classic-style 4pole low pass w/ resonance) and non-linear processors and you'll understand why the internet is buzzing about this feature.
Cascade Mode...
Every layer in a program can be routed through the DSP of any other layer, in series or blended together, with up to 32 layers. It's the same concept as Triple Mode on our K26 series, without the 3 layer limit. You can run your sound through literally dozens of filters (which can all move independently in real-time) in addition to Kurzweil's signature DSP processors like Shaper, Wrap and Distortion, allowing for some truly dazzling results. This is one more feature which makes the PC361's synth engine so powerful and so different than anything else on the market.
User Interface...
While the PC361's user interface may look familiar to veteran Kurzweil users, major improvements have been made, allowing for a much more user friendly experience. The PC361's backlit 240 x 64 display conveys all the information you'll need, when you need it, in an elegant, easy to navigate environment.
Programs are categorized and can be selected by scrolling or by using bank and program select buttons. Further, user favorites can be organized into convenient "Quick Access" banks for easy one touch recall.
In addition to fast navigation, each preset sound is accompanied by an "Info" screen which can be accessed at the touch of a button. As every sound can have its own customized set of real-time, physical controllers (sliders, modwheel, switches, CC Pedals, mono pressure, etc.) , the Info button makes viewing the current assignments effortless.
Complimenting the PC361's killer soundset is the the Easy Audition feature, where every one of the PC361's presets is linked to a bank of "riffs", recorded sequences which demonstrate each sound in an appropriate context. Just hit the "play" button on the front panel and get a quick musical preview of the current selection. Program selection and navigation, fast and easy.
Helping to tap the system's full potential, the PC3 also sports a feature-laden software-based Desktop Editor with comprehensive, easy to use features. (free download- both Mac & PC platforms available)
Effects...
With up to 16 insert effects, two available auxiliary sends, PLUS a global Master FX section, the PC361 offers more than twice the processing power of our acclaimed KDFX engine. Effects can be chained together in series, or distributed among the PC361's 16 multitimbral channels. And these are simply the best effects in the business - burning distortions, transparent compressors, warm phaser and chorus effects, perfect reverbs - everything from flawless vintage emulations to concert halls which decay into complete silence. All parameters are assignable to any of the PC361's real time controllers - sliders, pedals, wheels, etc.
Sequencer...
The PC361 features a newly designed sequencer, with unlimited tracks and 960 PPQ resolution. Combining a set of powerful song editing functions like event editing, swing, and controller scaling with a new friendlier interface, the PC361 truly excels as a song writing/arranging workstation, ideal for music production on the fly. Chasing controls, input quantizing and a global "set song length" function are just a couple of the features we've incorporated.
Arpeggiators & Riffs...
The PC361 sports sixteen (yes, 16!) independent, fully programmable arpeggiators featuring 48-step programmable, pattern generators with both pitch and velocity controls - per zone (allowing for up to 16 patterns to playback simultaneously). These are accompanied by a thorough collection of modes, scales and pre-programmed patterns to get your juices flowing.
If that wasn't enough, the PC3 offers sixteen unique "Riff" generators, which permit the triggering of MIDI sequenced phrases, beats, or even complete multi-track arrangments from notes on the keyboard and/or any on-board physical controller.
