Jose,

Even though the Korg is nice keyboard, one of the biggest downfall of the Korg is the latin style section. There latin styles are very poor quality compared to even the older ketrons. If your judging a keyboard for just its sounds and styles, I do not prefer for the latin styles on the korg. I've owned many ketrons and the Korg pa80. I've gone through the pa2x and I found many recycled styles, especially the latin section, which was very poor on the PA80.

Also if your playing for crowd that will dance to latin music but are not hispanic, you may be able to get away with a Korg. If your playing for latin ethnic crowd from various latin countries. The korg is a joke.

If others want to touch on the jazz & funk to compare, it would help, since I don't play that type of styles.

good luck.
