Effortlessly create accompaniments and songs
You can easily and quickly create back-up accompaniments and songs on the Korg microARRANGER thanks to its 304 styles. Enter the chords to your composition and tell the microARRANGER to add a style to it. You can choose styles such as jazz, ballad, Latin, rock, pop, and many more. The microARRANGER analyzes your chords and generates parts following your chords. There are four variations to each style to choose from, and you can edit the style to be exactly what you want and save it to use later.

Create rich backing tracks for live performances

With the Jukebox function you can set up your playlist and let it roll all night long without having to touch the keyboard again. The life-like drums, bass, keyboards, horns, and more give your gig a professional touch that regular MIDI accompaniment doesn't. Via the SD card you can transport tons of songs and load them into your microARRANGER at the gig to make sure you have appropriate songs no matter what the situation. With Korg's XDS Dual Sequencer, one can load as the other plays, and a DJ-style cross fader can blend between them, providing a seamless, continuous musical performance.
