One thing, I wish Korg HAD put in the "Chord Generator" ability of the Rolands - now THAT would've been handy, as it is, I don't understand why the showing chords thing (if they're embedded in the file) is a *new* feature as, as far as I'm aware, my PA1-X already has the ability to do that...
100% correct Hellboy.. It could do that from OS 1.5 on the PA1xPro...Provided they were in the correct format
And you know, if you do a search on the Korg forums, not ONE person asked for score reading/display...ever!! So where did that one come from?
They would be far better off fixing how it displays text lyrics (an issue since OS 1.1 on the original PA1)..In fact, imo, they should change it so you can load .RTF files,or even .BMP files.
The software system they are using is quite capable of dealing with those formats, Korg just won't program them in.
At least that way chord symbols above the line would stay above the correct lyric instead of being all squashed to the left when it's loaded!!! (There is a workaround, but it's ugly!)
Anyway, I had a look at the update sheet and it seems like a decent upgrade apart from all that, so owners should be happy overall.
Now if Korg can only admit to and fix hardware issues with early release PA2xPros....but THAT, is another story
