Thanks AJ,
I'm wondering if maybe the PA800 pad system has improved since the pa80?

They have some really great pad creation functions like midifile to pad, style track to pad (& vice versa)etcetc

I beleive you can also play more than 1 pad at a time ( a bit like the psr system) except that you have the option of a looping pad syncing from the next bar or from anywhere within the bar immediately.

I beleive you can also trigger a pad via a foot pedal? not an option I have on my psr, or at least not that I've found in the settings.

I suppose the only way I'll satisfy myself as to whether it suits, would be to try & check one out. The manual makes it sound perfect for someone like me, for likes to delve into a keyboards functions. haa haa

Might try & get a hold of a pa80 manual & do a comparison on the pad functions.

thanks AJ

best wishes
Rikki

The PA80's multipads are good for use as on / off controllers, not much else,
