Funny, I find the 800 easiest to use vs anything else. I've had the Yammy too, but the ease of creating, saving, quick changing and overall sound quality is unsurpassed. As Lee said, send all to the Songbook and fly fast in live play (at least I can do it)

As I said "FOR MY NEEDS" everyone plays and performs totally different....KORG arrangers are out of the question for me at this time until changes are made if any to suit my criteria and style of playing...enjoy what you play I know I do .. ..it's Yamaha for me at this time but who knows what the future will bring?

I think our lobal parts are all different. I had a really hard time with Yamaha OS and an easy time with Korg. I'm working every night on new tunes and the 800 OS is just such a snap.

But we will probably talk about new things in 2015 and these days will pass.

Donny, enjoy - you're the man............I love the 330 too

Good luck with the Roland BA330 ....
it really is fexible & fits MANY needs for the gigging musician like a Stereo Swiss Army Knife!!

I really wanted to LOVE the Pa800 but after a few months on the road I knew it wasn't a keeper for me. I look forward to whats next from KORG, Yamaha, & Roland....I've given up on Ketron for now...some of the demos on my website were recorded using the PA800 also....besides my Tyros. I will have to say KORG is #2 in my choice list....don't get me wrong I enjoyed many of the features on the PA800 but not enough to keep.

have fun.

Good to see that Korg is getting some kudos here. Maybe some of the folks over on the Korg forum need to hear some of this. There's been some less than stellar comments on Korg service on there lately.

Hi Zuki,
you did well.
My PA800 screen went dark. Still worked, but I couldn't see what I was pressing. Whole screen had to be replaced & cost me over $600.
Unfortunately mine was well out of warranty.
Anyway I've got it back, & I must admit it's nice to have it back home again.

best wishes
Rikki

KorgUSA took care of both boards for me at their expense. I have to say this is customer service at its finest. Try that with another brand
