The Korg SV-2 88 combines a beautifully crafted 88-key RH3 keyboard with an exceptionally large sound library and effects section. Thanks to the ten-fold increase in sample memory, every instrument—from subtle acoustic pianos to modular synths—sounds lifelike and dynamic. The operation is deliberately kept simple: turn a knob, choose a sound and play. Everything is immediately accessible without a screen or sub-menus, allowing you to stay fully focused in the moment.

A modern classic

Thanks to its RH3 keybed, the SV-2 88 feels like a real acoustic piano, with heavier keys in the lower registers and a lighter action in the upper range. The 128-voice polyphony and the extensive RX layer (Real eXperience) ensure an authentic response. You can both hear and feel it: every keystroke brings the instrument to life.

Unparalleled sound possibilities for studio and stage

The SV-2 88 offers 72 stunning sounds: American and German electric pianos, analogue and digital EPs, various types of organs (tonewheel, transistor, church organs), tape strings, pads, bass sounds and two beautifully crafted harpsichords. The acoustic piano sounds are sourced from leading makers in Germany, Italy, Austria and Japan—warm, clear and expressive.

With the free SV-2 Editor, you can create your own splits, layers and presets (up to three sounds at once), ideal for live sets or studio work.

The built-in effects section includes compressor, U-Vibe, tremolo, chorus, rotary, plate reverb and Korg’s renowned Valve Reactor tube-amplification using a 12AX7A valve for extra warmth. Thanks to XLR outputs, MIDI, USB and three pedal inputs, the SV-2 88 fits seamlessly into any setup.

Included accessories

The Korg SV-2 88 comes with the DS-2H half-damper pedal, allowing you to take full advantage of the instrument’s expressive capabilities. You also receive a power cable for direct connection and a clear user manual so you can get started without worry.

Optional accessories

If you want to expand your SV-2 88, an expression pedal, additional sustain pedal, keyboard stand or sturdy keyboard cover are recommended. These accessories are also available from Joh. de Heer.
