Hi Bachus,
some of the stuff they're talking about is a bit too technical for me.
A lot of these guys use their Korg's to the full extent. They sample, they create styles from scratch etc etc

My main concern was that that whatever was going onwith Korg, was holding up EMC being able to "read" the pa800/PA2x styles format, which was the main reason I upgraded. The new import/export function of individual style tracks in XT is really handy for me, because I mix n match style tracks from various sources, & I can build up a style phrase library.
If I was only into straight converting, I would have just saved them as PA1X files & used them in the PA800 as such.

Don't let what's going on, put you off Korg totally. If deep down you're after a Wersi, sometimes, one is better off waiting. It took me 4 years to find a replacement for my KN7. 4 years spent with OMB software & softsynths, during that time I also ended up with an SD1+ & psr1500. Neither keyboard totally did what I really wanted, & happily I was able to afford to keep them.

I've found I can do most of the stuff I do, in the keyboard itself ( I'm a bit of a style junkie). If users or companies come up with 3rd party software , for organizing files or what ever it is they require, then great, if not, so far for my addiction I'm managing fine with a combination of pc sequencers (xg works & pt12) BIAB, OMB software & EMC & my laptops, very basic, wav editor for editing some of my drum audio loops that I've created (groove files).

Hopefully you get the right keyboard for your needs, can be stressful trying to decide. haahaa though so much fun.

best wishes
Rikki
