Horns and Strings

[Pete Tanis]

Can anyone suggest a "not too expensive" keyboard that has decent horns and strings - used in rock and funk.

Korg X50. Triton based sound set. Very nicely tweaked strings and brass and in the ballpark for your budget I'd think.

Thank you. I mostly play piano and organ. We have a sax in the band - but I like to add other horns on top for some songs.

If you want an idea how the horns sound on Korgs here's a tune I did a couple of years ago on my Korg TR76 which is also based on the Triton sound set.

I can't remember exactly which horn patch I used but it'll give you an idea anyway.

Here's another tune of mine that features strings. It's a bit busy but I think you can make them out pretty clearly.
