That's really quite a fantastic improvement to the feature, Dennis. I didn't really dig in too hard to this aspect of the PA3X while I had my friend's one at the house (too busy trying to get his Roland styles into it!).

Mind you, it still doesn't quite address the issue of a PC# (or whatever) being in the middle of the previous section, but you wanting to start at the beginning of the next. But hopefully, there is some kind of back-scanning going on (as most DAW's do automatically), and as long as you can place to the tick where they get played, you should be good to go.

I guess the only issue remains that, don't Korg's still cut off the sound of one Tone when you call up another?

Hopefully, Korg might realize that whatever they are doing with the Kronos engine to prevent sounds from cutting off as you change them would be a boon to ANY keyboard, arranger or WS, and this will soon no longer be an issue.

I would also hope that Korg might realize that the BEST place to have the Markers displayed is on the Lyrics and Score pages, as these are the only pages you are likely to need in SMF mode... and that operating them from your FEET would be a darn good idea (wish Roland had added this!).

That PA3X certainly seems to be slowly getting quite a leg up on some pretty important ideas than the competition. There is much about it I am quite jealous of!

Has there been any accurate leak of what's coming in the new PA3X OS yet?
