Hi scott,
I have ask the manager of Korg (in the netherlands) to see for the arranging mode (like yamaha does) for the rootless-voicings in the left part.
He will ask it to the technical people or korg.
For the rest:
You have two fills and one break on different buttons, you can also link the one touch settings to the four variation-sections of the arranger(ex. var1 grand piano, var2 bandoneon,....)
Every custom style you can change the drum-track to a other mood (i think 6 different mappings!!!) this feature is not changing the drumkit like from standard to fusion kit, korg has factory include some other mappings that can change the drumkit. ex. you have on variation 1 a bad sound in the drum-kit you can go to the drummapping and you here 6 different drumarrangements you can choose for this variation (sometimes with other percusion instruments like conga's cymbals...and this for all variations you can choose a different mood!!! save it in the global style prefference and the next time you have this new style conversion!!!
About the harmonizer, I don't sing and use it not very much (only at home and not so much, but i think it's really good) I have tried the vocoder mode and this make a great modern sound you can modify to your mood. (i working now on a file of one note samba with the vocoder mode and he follow all the tensions i play on the right part !!!
About the retriggering of fill's:
You must know the just time for tapping the buttons of the fill for correct respons to the break or fills, one minus some styles will give 2 measure's on the break hitting knob while i want 1 measure !! but you can change that and save it (global style prefence)
You can also change the style preference menu: every time you choose another variation it wil start with a fill you choose (like fill 1 fill 2 or break)
I hope this information helps you to understand some feature of the pa1x/pa1x-pro
