I pondered over a year on what to buy, either a Tyros or the Korg. After reading the forums and watching videos I decided that the KorgPa3x61 would best suit my needs. I have had various Technics keyboards and still have the KN7000. The Korg will do what I want it to do. Since there were no keyboards, in my area, for me to try I bought it without trying it. I was not disappointed. I checked all over the internet and the best price that I found was Audio Works in Ct. I would recomend Frank, The owner, to anyone who is thinking of purchasing one in the United States. I see Frank post and belongs to this form. I don't usualLy post that often but I thought other readers might be interested.
