A genuinely authentic accordion experience
Korg's team, based in Italy and deeply rooted in the world of accordion music, has expertly crafted every detailâfrom button sizes & positions, correct angles and layouts to the overall feel of the instrument. This profound understanding of what accordionists truly need ensures that the FISA SUPREMA delivers an authentic and unparalleled playing experience for accordion players of every taste and style, all while honoring the legacy of KORGâs co-founder, Tadashi Osanai, an accordionist himself. Korg's commitment to authenticity and precision is reflected in every aspect of the FISA SUPREMA.
Unparalleled versatility
With 45 meticulously crafted accordion types covering accordions from all around the world, FISA SUPREMA has an authenticity that rivals the finest traditional instruments, removing the need for multiple accordions. FISA SUPREMA even allows you to customize your instrument to create your perfect accordion. Choose the type and combination of reeds, decide whether the reed is placed inside or outside the cassotto (tone chamber), select the type of growl and mechanical noises, decide your tuning, and configure the bass layout to your preference. You can even selectively "age" the sound of the instrument, creating a truly personalized accordion tailored to your personal taste and style.
Dynamic realism
Central to the FISA SUPREMAâs realism is Korg's unique Natural Bellows Response technology. This advanced system succeeds where others have failed, in replicating the feel and response of an acoustic accordion with remarkable precision. Korg's exclusive technology continuously monitors and adjusts to the bellows' movement and pressure, capturing every subtle nuance of your performance in real-time. This provides an unmatched feel and response, offering a dynamic range that allows you to seamlessly transition between delicate passages and powerful sections.
Unmatched digital power with Cutting-edge control
The FISA SUPREMAâs digital prowess opens a world of possibilities, offering a level of versatility and control that other accordions simply cannot achieve. The FISA SUPREMA provides an incredible selection of sounds and performance capabilities that go beyond the realm of the traditional accordion. Layer sounds, create scenes for quick recall, and customize every aspect of your performance with programmable buttons, multiple registers, and assignable controls. The FISA SUPREMA includes chin switches, a fully-assignable master bar switch, touch sensors for horizontal note control, and aftertouch for control over your sound beyond an initial key press. In addition, a 2-axis accelerometer uniquely allows you to affect your sound through movements of the accordion forwards and to the right. FISA SUPREMA provides an expressive potential that allows you to shape your sound and performance intuitively and naturally.
Intuitive and simple operation
Navigating the extensive features of the FISA SUPREMA is made simple with its full-color screen and user-friendly menus. The physical controls and shortcuts are designed for ease of use, allowing you to focus on your performance without any technical distractions. To help with live performance, the FISA SUPREMA also provides the choice of an âeasyâ or an âadvancedâ mode. âEasyâ mode gives you the simplicity of a simple acoustic accordion, while âadvancedâ mode unlocks huge creative possibilities.
The full power of Korg
Appearances can be deceiving. The FISA SUPREMA goes far beyond the sounds of dozens of different accordions, also offering a diverse sound library that includes orchestral instruments and five distinct organ types: TW1, TW2, FARF, VX, and PIPE. These sounds are enhanced by the unique, specially developed Advanced Proportional Bellows Behavior technology (patent pending by KORG), and provide lifelike expressiveness that can be seamlessly combined with accordion tones. Additionally, the Hyper-Real Sound Cluster (HSC) technology delivers realistic band-like experiences, while the Hyper-Real Drum Sounds Cluster draws on specially recorded drum kits. This extensive sound palette allows you to explore new genres and styles, ensuring your performances are always rich, versatile, and compelling.
Lightweight & portable
The FISA SUPREMA weighs just 10.3 kg for the button version and 10.6 kg for the piano version, making it very comfortable to play and ideal for transporting to gigs, rehearsals, and travel. It boasts a 9-hour battery life (including performance) and can be charged while performing without interrupting the sound, allowing you to perform and not worry about power sources or glitches to your sound. This long-lasting battery ensures you can play extended sessions at home, on stage, or in the studio, without sacrificing the unique portability of an acoustic accordion.
