Pretty powerful keyboard.
The Korg Krome is a pretty compact and powerful keyboard workstation. There are many possibilities with the Combi section. Decent piano and EP sounds. The keyboard action isn't that great and the texture of the keys leave a lot to be desired. The keys on my Krome just have this nasty greasy feeling, ever since I opened it out of the box.

Great sounds, lousy construction
This was to be my go to single board for duo/trio work; however less than one year in I had to replace a a key bank on the left side of the keyboard, and subsequently have other keys that are wobbly. Poorly made for the live musician though for studio use the sounds are great for a workstation at the mid price point.
