Thank you Donny for your kind words and I will keep you lot posted.

Adimatis, I was not trying to belittle the Korg PA50, far from it.My latest Youtube entry goes to show that I was very pleased with this keyboard. It has made me peak artistically (within the confines of my own home that is) and has brought me more pleasure and satisfaction than any other keyboard I ever owned previously.

Having said that I must admit that the potential of the PA500 is vast, and I can only repeat what I said of the PA50 six years ago now in relation to the PA500:
"by far the best bang for the buck !!!".
( I bought mine brand in the shop for 895 euros, that is 1200 dollars .......)
