thing is bill if you wanted to do BOTH arranger style and true worstation work your only real choice is the Korg PA products and thats precisely why i dont own a pure workstation. You cant instantly remix an original piece of music and change up the style immediately or experiment with new material in different styles without doing a whole lot of work first on a workstation only to scrap it later if it doesnt work out favourably ,whereas with an arranger you can flesh out a song in minutes and then re record the same song substituting different chords etc . When you are happy with the structure you can then put your personal stamp the finished product . Thats pretty much impossible with a pure workstation although the Motif range are the closest workstations that have borrowed some arranger creative attributes .

I doubt there is anything you could not do in this example of Brian Culberston song on a workstation that has not been done on this korg PA1X. The idea is prouce great music and thats exactly what this guy is doing using the Korg PA1X instrument. Whether he could have done somnething even more incredible is not a function of the instrument he uses but of his ceativity. this is the mistake that is made time and time again when we get caught up in comparing features of great keyboard workstations......
