Well it's not a MediaStation, though that would be cool to have. I suspect many will think I am nuts, not for the brand but for the weight. But it will make my set-up/tear-down a little faster, I'll have fewer things to carry, and it will sound very good. My plan is to record a short video and post it once my new toy arrives.

Nope, I wanted something with some programmability; real sequencer, style creation, real sound editing, etc.

I'm betting it's a Korg PA-588.

And the winner is

PA588 it is. I just unpacked it 10 minutes ago and man does the keyboard feel good. I've only played around with the default style so far and it sounds very good. I think I have a long (but fun) night ahead of me.

I'll give an update after I spend some time with it.

Haven't you heard? No-one will be interested in it if it is over 25 lbs.

I know, and I didn't even stop at a 76 note heavy piece, I went for the whole 88. The specs say 67.24 lbs but maybe that's including the stand and box because it it really wasn't any worse than my RD-700GX to put on the stand, in fact because it is a little more normal in shape it may be a bit easier.

And did I mention how great the action is? And ya gotta love a real metal chassis.

Hi Dave,
congratulations.
An internet buddy of mine bought one a few weeks ago.
Welcome to the wonderful world of Korg.

Style creation/editing is brilliant. Luv Guitar Mode recording. Being able to import & export styles as midifiles etc etc

Enjoy.
best wishes
Rikki
