So its been a few weeks since I purchased my PA 800 and I have been having a lot of fun!

here are two recordings I have made to give examples of the styles and sound quality of the PA 800 with OS 2.0

please excuse some wrong chords or rough pattern changing.

All this music has been played in arranger moed in realtime. i use full fingered chord recognition.

the style used for Canon is the new 8 beat which came with OS 2.0

the trance style is from the PA1x and i have done a bit of editing to make it more customised to my liking...

any comments negative or positive are welcome. (not too negative? hehe )

Thanks for listening

Nick

Please don't use that rapidshare crap, after trying to download the file it got only part of it and therafter "You reached the limit... please get a premium account..."

Hi Nick

Not too keen on the piano used, but overall I like them.

Downside, well compared to hearing the board live, the mp3 does rob the sound of its aliveness, but then that’s the downsides of mp3, and has nothing to do with your playing or the board.

Thanks for posting and hope to hear some more in the future.

Regards

Bill

I had no problem downloading & listening to these tunes.....I wasn't impressed at all with the sound of OS2 vs the previous OS....to me it's the typical Korg PA sound judging by this demo.
I enjoyed the songs & playing, but the empty overall sounding drums especialy the hallow snare left me wanting more unless they need some EQ'ing.
Hope to hear more soon.

Only listened to the first song. I thought the piano sounded great - different ears I suppose. Thanks for sharing.

That particular OS2 style is about the most bare bones styles you can imagine. You should hear some of the others - wow!

How long do you have to gush over apiece of gear before you are willing to post anything yourself, Zuki?

You've had the thing AGES longer than this guy, but he beats you to the punch making demos, and you criticize him for not demoing the best styles?

Wouldn't posting a demo of the styles you DO consider better have been a MUCH more useful comment?
