Yeah I agree Spalding, totally...I have a suspicion that having this (PA3) at NAMM was sorta kinda forced upon Korg USA..

Not to mention they also maybe got wind of the Tyros 4 being extensively demo'd, and by an expert as well!! And maybe thought if they at least had the PA3 at NAMM it MAY persuade dealers to hold back a bit on orders, and also to sway any buyers from choosing the Yammie to soon??? MM is not that far away.

Hence the quickly slapped together demo by a Korg guy who really didn't know his way around the keyboard.

Why they would even think that with the quality of the demos it would generate hype is beyond me... But I guess they were trying to make it's presence known.

Only time will tell if it was a mistake or not. MKost importantly with US sales later in the year.
