Zuki, I would love to try the PA-800, especially with all the style programming options it offers.

Unfortunately, my local dealer will not carry Korg arrangers...only their synths and digital pianos.

After my surgery, and eventual recovery, I'll be able to travel again, and hopefully try out the PA-800 and several more elusive instruments.

I'm glad you like it...obviously it's a good partner to the S900.

Ian

Lets face it, its one AWESOME Keyboard that is quality built and has so many
Pro Features........I wish I wasn't so fickle but thats something I guess I was born with.The great G70's key-feel haunts me in the back of my mind every time I play something substandard to it. I also miss the great sounds/styles, organs & draw-bars & touch screen & the makeup tools are so effective in the editing department it ain't funny..

"Sigh"... decisions decisions



Donny, it's a trick of the ear & brain.
If you're continually playing your own KB you get attuned to it and while it may still sound good to great you get somewhat jaded with it and the Wow might not be so noticeable.
Then when you go to play a different KB, providing it's not a dog, it sounds by contrast WOW!

It's another version of familiarity & the grass is always greener.........

It happens with me if I play Ty2 "too much".
Ignore it for a few days,I come back and get wowed all over again.

So suggest you take a week off from your existing KB, then when you come back the enthusiasm will return.
But if it doesn't, dump it !!!!

Donnie,
What about this space-age beauty.
Don't worry about the weight, you'll have roadies/groupies everywhere you go with this baby.
