KORG Liano Metallic Red - 88-Key Portable Digital Piano
Discover the KORG Liano digital piano, a perfect blend of portability, design, and functionality in a striking Metallic Red finish. With an incredibly slim profile of just 7.3 cm and weighing only 6 kg, the Liano redefines what it means to be a portable piano without sacrificing the feel of an authentic instrument. It's the ideal solution for musicians who need an instrument that's easy to transport for rehearsals, live performances, or simply for playing at home without taking up much space.
At the heart of the Liano is its 88-key semi-weighted LS keyboard, a feature inherited from high-end workstations like the KRONOS LS, providing an expressive and natural touch response. Adjustable to three sensitivity levels, it adapts perfectly to any playing style. The simplicity of its control panel lets you focus on what matters most: the music. With just the turn of a dial, you can access its eight high-quality sounds, including an acclaimed Italian grand piano, electric pianos, organs, and strings, all enhanced by a maximum polyphony of 120 voices that ensures no note is lost, even in the most complex passages.
The sound is projected clearly and directly thanks to its integrated 8W x 2 speakers, strategically placed on the front panel. The built-in Bass Reflex system ensures rich and dynamic low-frequency reproduction, exceptional in such a compact chassis. And for moments requiring silence, the headphone jack allows for immersive and private practice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to buy additional accessories to start playing?
No, the KORG Liano includes everything you need to get started: the power adapter, a sustain pedal (model PS-3) and a music stand.
Can I connect the Liano to my computer?
Yes, you can connect it to a computer (PC/Mac) via its USB Type-B port to send and receive MIDI data. This allows you to use it with recording software, virtual instruments, and music applications. A USB cable is required (sold separately).
What type of batteries does it use and how long do they last?
The piano can be powered by 6 AA batteries, either alkaline or NiMH (not included). With alkaline batteries, the approximate battery life is 8 hours of continuous use.
