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
The E1 Air offers two distinct Italian concert grand piano voices, each meticulously sampled to preserve its individual character.
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.
