I found this link to a short video of the PA 500 at the Namm show. The sound quality of the video isn't very good there is to much background noise.

The Guitar Mode at this price point makes this quite the bargain, IMO...

Very nice.

Yes, looks like it has a bunch of features. Can the guitar mode be played in arranger mode?

Just from what I'm reading here at the SZ, it sounds like Korg has come up with a very good product line with their newest PA arrangers. I enjoyed my iX300 years ago, and now feel I would seriously consider another Korg if I were considering another keyboard. All they need now is a 76-note version of the 800 or 500. I would think they are more likely to do so than Y.

Cass, they have just released for sale( 2 weeks ago) in the US the PA2XPro. 76 Keys with a great keybed and action, more sliders, built mp3 player recorder and hard drive. Hmmm, I wonder.........ah never mind.

I think Cassp was more looking to find a MOTL 76 than the TOTL...

Korg would definitely find a market for a 76 PA500, particularly as it has such a playable Grand sound...

BTW, as the video showed, yes, the Guitar Mode DOES operate in arranger mode, unlike Roland
