Hi everyone:
Malcolm is a good guy, he understands the arrangers, he works in Korg USA, but for what I know, he is not in the arranger division.
I know he makes his best efforts to demo with a unit that probably he has never seen. Malcolm was instrumental for us (Juan Miguel Zarate and I) to get us involved to make the Real Mexican-South-American Styles for Korg USA with Jerry K, and Chris Anthony overlooking the project.
I wish Korg will put some interest and someone in the Arranger section, I do understand the Kronos is a AWESOME workstation, but, why develop a PA3X if is not going to be promoted?....
I hope Korg could consider an "embasador" or local Demonstrator for certain regions, working in coordination with the Korg Rep. I said this, because 99% of the music stores have kids that are clueless about arrangers, "if you don't show, you don't sell".
Think about it, is like Korg have made the Kronos and have nobody to show it, it is wonderful, but if we did not heard it, how would we know it? better, How it would sell if no one knew or heard it?
