Model overview
The KORG C1 Air WBK is created for those who value the feel of real keys and want each chord to sound as natural and expressive as possible. It features the RH-3 mechanism, replicating the response of an acoustic piano with heavier action in the lower register and lighter keys in the higher, while also responding dynamically to your touch. This makes it instantly clear to beginners how different it feels from a simple keyboard, and gives skilled players the freedom to rehearse any repertoire in comfort.
The piano voices were sampled from renowned German and Japanese grand pianos, bringing you the essence of a live concert instrument in your home—without the need for regular professional tuning. To widen your creative palette, it offers 30 different sounds, ranging from classic pianos to atmospheric tones, strings, and organs. Reverb and chorus effects are also included to add richness and depth to your playing.
Equally important is how easily it integrates into daily life. Its sleek, modern cabinet fits seamlessly into any room, and the soft-closing key cover ensures lasting protection. Inside, two 25-watt speakers deliver a detailed and full-bodied sound. Whether you’re practising with the built-in recorder, using the metronome, or taking advantage of the twin piano mode for lessons, the instrument is designed to fit both study and performance.
KORG have also ensured the C1 Air WBK is up to date with today’s needs: Bluetooth Audio lets you stream music directly from your phone or tablet, so you can play along with your favourite tracks. For learners, it’s a fun way to pick up new songs, and for professionals, it can be a source of inspiration for fresh arrangements.
Who is this model for?
The KORG C1 Air WBK is designed to appeal to a broad audience, which is among its strongest qualities. If you’re just starting your musical journey, the instrument will help you develop proper technique and give your hands the feel of a true grand piano.

Meanwhile, professionals will appreciate the high sound quality and excellent keyboard response. It’s a reliable choice for home practice, demo recording, or even small performances.
