I would agree with the points that you have made Miden which is why i did not upgarde. Actually thats not true. There is so much going on with the PA1X even after 2.5 years ownership that i reckon there is still tons more i can get out of it and still have not learned.

But my question is this.

Did you increase the Sample ram memory to the max 256 mb and did you amnage to test the loading time for samples ? Also although the PA1X handles the 62 note polyphony well, did you find the 120 note polyhony to be very much better ?
