Product Overview
The Korg Group Education Controller 5 (GEC5) features an easy-to-use software user interface, multiple practice and instruction modes, fully-digital stereo sound and the option of wireless tablet integration. Suitable for any teaching level and any combination of electronic instruments, (MIDI keyboards, guitars, sound modules, computer soundcards, etc.) the GEC5 allows teachers to interact with as many as 32 different student stations and up to 64 students, since each student station can accommodate two students.
Korg GEC5 Features:
- Software Interface and Tablet Integration: The powerful and intuitive group instruction system is compatible with both Windows and Apple operating systems. Educators can control the audio in the room by customizing classroom layouts, and monitor student's progress with a few simple clicks.
- Multiple Interactive Modes
- Lecture Mode: This mode is used to present material in a lecture format. All students hear the teacher’s microphone and instrument or computer allowing for a captive and quiet audience.
- Practice Mode: This mode is used when the students are working independently. Each student hears only his or her own instrument or computer. In Practice Mode, the teacher has the option of “eavesdropping” on the student and initiating two-way communication with the student.
- Group Mode: This mode is used when students are working together in groups (two or more student workstations in any conceivable configuration). Each student in a group can hear his or her own instrument as well as the instruments or computer and microphone of the other members of their group.
