Nice work James, There is no doubt that Korg’s editing capabilities are at a high level (probably the best, compared to other keyboard companies). They have great sounds, especially the layered pianos, Rhodes & my fav was the i3 strings. (JMO)

But I see the Korg, especially PA2X more of a studio arranger, than a gigging arranger, not that it can’t be used as one. I know many people use them and before everyone jumps down my neck. I find with all those great Korg sounds (and they are great), Korg does not do enough to produce better quality styles. This all subjectable and based on different tastes, Yamaha has really improved with the mega voices and the guitars really bring a nice touch to their styles. Ketron (pre-audya)!! Drums and bass are in your face and styles just come alive like a band (remember pre-audya) Audya is a whole other discussion. Roland…(hasn’t released anything new to compare too) plus I’m bias ( I hated my g1000).

I wish Korg with all these great sounds would only produce better styles. Just my thoughts….

PS I'm not trying to start a mine is better than yours but as James opinion of Ketron and the audya (which I respect) is his. But I also would like to add korg keyboard to my giggs but I find 'others' better suited for my playing style than what Korg has release at this moment.
