Well, to be fair - the program patches are so easy to call up, and they won't change a drum style unless you tell it to, so in effect, the list is much larger than just the 5 on the front panel. With the touchscreen open to the program page, you have a full load of tones in an instant, plus the dedicated buttons on the face of the unit. I'd be hard pressed to need more than 5 sounds in any ONE song, but if the need arises, it's really not hard to execute.

Now that I think of it - Korg even lets you tell the program bank to load the first sound instantly, if you choose, so really - you have every sound bank available as a "Favorite" patch too. That's about 20 favs at your fingertips.
