Styles
When you reprogram any style with new sounds on your PA1x you have to save it as a new user style, otherwise you would need to change the sounds every time you selected it. The only difference with the VST is that the mapping for the VST would be saved in the style instead of an internal sound.
The same applies to one touch settings etc.
Dynamics, volume, etc
You would set the global parameters of the VST to match your keyboard settings, and then save it as the default setting in the VST.
You would save the sounds of the VST in banks for instant recall, just as you do with your PA1x.
Yes there will be work, in exactly the same way as you have to work when creating something new on your PA1x.
Remember if you upgraded to a PA3x you would also have to change all your current settings to make use of the new features and sounds or it would still sound like PA1x
Hope this clarifies things.
Bill

Hi Spalding Computer: (I’m assuming its Windows) You will need an ASIO driver, (If it is a quality sound card in your computer it will already come with ASIO drivers) if you don’t have one then download ASIO4all here http://www.asio4all.com/You will need an audio cable to connect the audio output of your computer to the audio input of your keyboard. A USB cable to connect the keyboard to the computer (If your keyboard doesn’t allow USB Midi connections (It’s been common to use USB for Midi for a number of years) you will need to use a Midi cable and interface to transfer the Midi data from the keyboard to the computer) Kontakt Player VST (The best free one to go for) If you have Windows 7 you can download the Kontakt 5 Player and Factory Selection here http://www.native-instruments.com/#/en/products/producer/kontakt-5-player/ if you have an older OS( XP/Vista) you can download Kontakt 4 from here http://download.cnet.com/windows/ (Type Kontakt 4 into the search box) and then download the Factory Selection from here http://www.native-instruments.com/#/en/products/producer/kontakt-player/?page=781 NOTE: You will need to register an email address to get the Kontakt 5 & Factory Selection download links and also to activate them. They are quite large files to download and install so allow time to do it. NOTE: Accept all the default settings when loading the software in. Install and connect up the above, and you are ready to start and set up the default settings on the computer. Let me know when you have all software installed and I will post how to set up the audio and Midi. NOTE: You will need your Korg Manual Bill

Bill For what it's worth, I am lurking with great interest. I finally got an Asus i7/7200 laptop that can handle Kontakt4, which I am following along with.
I am not horning into your tutorial, but wanted you to know that I too am very interested.

That is very nice of you. I sent a request from Skype. Maybe we can get a video call going. Bernie
