fair call but i have say I highly dis agree with u where u say "The synth sounds especially the pads are much better on the Korg".
i particularly play trance and electro music and the synth voices on the PA 800 lacked punch and variety.
the pads were pretty good but still nothing compared to what u get on a synth and from what i have heard the GW8.
GW 8 has standard editing functionality. the Korg PA 800 had a far more in depth editing engine but at the end of the day it doesnt matter how good the sound editing capability is, if the sounds arent up to scratch out of the box, you arent going to get much better.
I tried extensively to edit synth sounds and pads to bring them much more punchier and alive on the korg and got no where.
i feel that I myself as well as the majority of keyboard players like to buy a keybaord and be able to enjoy the sound straight away with only minimal editing some of the sounds...
Nick I don't know about the Korg PA800 but for the PA50 there are many extra sounds available (
