I'm very excited about the arranger that Korg will make in ten years time from now..! I mean, why waste your time getting all wet below the waist at an arranger you have NO IDEA what will be on it that is JUST about to come out (maybe, possibly, as far as you guess), when you can get all worked up about something that will leave you gasping for a good ten years..?! Plus, you have the advantage that, there MIGHT be a slight possibility that some of your wishlist be achieved by then. It DEFINITELY isn't going to happen on the NEXT PA series, that's a fact! Not to mention that, if they actually DID fill your wishlist, it would be three times the price of an Audya! So, let's just remain moist for things so far in the future, we don't have to worry about being disappointed within a few months... Let's defer that disappointment for at least a decade or so, eh..?!

Interestingly, the PA2X pro is not in the list of products German Site, so may not need to wait that long to see the newby, I doubt Korg will let Yamaha and ketron take sales if they can avoid it, I mean its not like we are talking a couple of bucks here, every sale is a potential large transaction lost, and not necessarilly one you get back very quickly. All I hope is that, 1. they don't have that LED problem again, and 2. considering the lack of additional styles for PA2X they better have a large armanent to bring to the market

Quite honestly, if the Tyros 4 had been a 76 key instrument, or the Audya didn't scare the crap out of me with all the bug issues, I wouldn't be waiting for anything at all from Korg. But right now, there is nothing available that I'm willing to buy, so I really wish they would just crap or get off the pot. Wouldn't be the first time I got all excited about something but the bloom went off the rose before I found what I wanted to buy, and I went on to some other interest instead. Oh, I actually went and ordered a drum machine, since my old Ensoniq doesn't have anything that even sounds like percussion. Saw some YouTube videos on the Boss DR-880 and it looked like a lot of fun to play with. Plus I got a killer deal on it that I couldn't pass up. I'm planning on dragging one of my computers over to my new "music" room, so maybe I'll wind up doing most stuff from the computer anyway. Ah, well, maybe for the best. The wife just saw the credit card bill and I'm probably grounded for a while anyway. That new transmission and differential for one of my cars took a BIG bite out of my spending money. So heck, Korg, take your time. Get all the bugs worked out, because I certainly wouldn't want to get thrown into Audya hell like some people did.

I would definitely miss the chord reads of SMF's a measure before hand , besides the current measure...also the "smart" harmonizer that analyzes the chord for harmonies from the SMF without designating a midi channel Yes, very clever stuff there. The draw bar organ , although not perfect..is sure a better system than anyone else is offering.. There are many sounds that are not surpassed by the other brands..I still take the pianos over other brands, and the Scat and vocals are still better than competitors... Have you ever considered sampling them? When I move to a new KORG keyboard I sometimes have to take a few sounds with me. I've got about 22 sounds on my OASYS at this stage that come from 4 different KORG's I've owned and sold over the years. There's no sense in being without our favourites. I would also hope that Korg addresses the OS, that seems to be so outdated.. Other than merging sample sets which everyone moans about, do you have any other specific issues about the OS? Korg already has a decent key bed (only the Pro model..not the Pa800 and 500)...and the quality built (again only the Pro model).. The Korg PA2x and the Audya are the only keyboards that I would consider..but either of them have the things I need and use...the G70 still delivers.
Yeah, that's a safe bet. The FATAR beds they use on the pro models are very good. Regards James [This message has been edited by Irishacts (edited 10-31-2010).]
