Korg LP-380 review: What is it?
Positioned at the more affordable end of the digital console piano market, Korg’s LP-380U pairs the company’s fully-weighted hammer action RH3 keyboard with a selection of 30 onboard sounds. In case you were wondering about that extra ‘U’ in the name, it stands for USB connectivity, which was added to the original LP-380 model in 2021. Aimed at beginners with a sense of style, the LP-380U seeks to focus on great sounds and playability, rather than things like sequencers, song recorders and auto-accompaniment, giving you an instrument that’s extremely approachable and simple to use. Korg are keen to point out that the LP-380U is made in Japan by master craftsmen - and has a sticker on the top ‘C’ key of the keyboard to confirm this.
