Kurzweil‘s history has had its share of drama, including buyouts by Young Chang and Hyundai, but in more recent years company has regained quite a bit of momentum (and newfound popularity). We previewed the original PC3 at NAMM a few years ago and were blown away by its sound, as well as Kurzweil’s “everything is included” approach to designing a modern workstation.
The latest version is the PC3 LE. Taking many of the best features of the PC3, the PC3 LE adds real drum pads, multiple knobs for real-time control, and even some new sounds. The focus is heavily on real-time performance control, with many new features that help the keyboard to excel in a stage rig.
