Okay, so I take it everybody is able to view the pic. Fine and Dandy!!! Now, as I was saying:

The Pa1XPro's button functions are finally revealed to the masses! We can actually see the buttons and what each is assigned to, and to what feature its assignment has.

Look at the Octave Switch on the right side of the Keyboard if you will. How neat that Korg included an Octave Switch on their "76 Key" version. Kudos! Korg. UD should also like the Manual Bass function.

I was saying in my previous post, that I haven't given up all hopes of owning the Pa1X. If Polyphony issues are minor or nonexistent there is a strong possibility I still might go ahead and purchase it. Besides, when playing with my Band I don't use Arranger Functions anyway, ie., Auto Accompaniment, Multi-Pads etc, so Polyphony should not be as much of a concern. (In the Studio is where I can foresee problems with Polyphony because I would be using ALL types of the Arranger Functions on the Pa1X "61 Key version with internal speakers." But playing with my Band I shouldn't run into any problems especially if the Pa1X has excellent Polyphony allocation.

PS: George Kaye said that his Korg Rep told him there would be no Pa1X "61 Key version" sold in the USA, ie., (Korg said they have NO plans to do so at the present time). I find that hard to believe really. The PA60/80 has been a relatively good seller in the USA so you would think that Korg would extend the Pa1X into the USA market as well. I very much expect Korg to do so and I would be very surprised- read: (Jaw Dropping surprised) if they didn't sell (import) the Pa1X into the US Market.

Any way, enjoy the pic.

Best regards,
Mike
