Ditto, took me 10 years to realise I was playing wrong brand of keyboard.
Happy with my SX now.


P.s, I did enjoy those 10 years, but, didn’t do much actual playing.



Agreed. Even with hours of editing, Korg styles may not be smooth/ natural in comparison since the original style/fills/transitions- programming is busy/overwritten ( plus lack of 3rd party styles) compared to Yamaha and takes away playing time.

Again we are not taking about the Korg’s “ editing power”/ “ sequencer”, “ sound/ program editing”, “hardware”, “keys”, built quality”, “ functions”, “VH”,” bang for the buck”, etc.We are talking about simple unbusy 4/4 styles. Having simple 8 beat/ 16 beats styles with simple / natural bass lines which is a must for western ( non middle eastern/non Eastern European /Balkan) music player especially your gig depends on arranger function.

SMF’ers, Sequence replayers and , LH bass players who use arranger as drum machine will say they have no issues with Korg.
