My learned coleague, DonM, hit the nail on the head. I have an enormous amount of time invested in my Yamaha keyboards, and I have thousands upon thousands of custom, tweaked, stle files that really do a fantastic job. They sound great, and they're tailor made for the songs I perform.

Now, I have NOT heard the PA-600, but did play several earlier models. They were OK at best, IMO. I'm sure that in the hands of a seasoned veteran Korg player they would sound much better.

Today, I performed at an art festival, just a 3-hour performance, outdoors, but in the shade of a Tiki Bar. I used the PSR-3000, kept the crowd the entire time, had a ball, booked a couple jobs, made some tip money, and was back aboard the boat by 4 p.m.. Life is good down here in the Florida Keys, but the payscale sucks. The side benefits, though, made up for the low pay. I got flashed by young gals at least 4 times while performing Hot Hot Hot. I love my job.

Cheers,

Gary
