Don, try taking the SN Jazz Guitar, then feed it into a few of the amp sims. Keep the input level low-ish (that's how you don't overload the amp sim, and you get a more expressive gradual break-up as you play harder). EQ out some bottom, maybe boost some upper mids, it's total blues guitar heaven!

Add some delay by re-tasking the main chorus send, but send to it from the MFX, NOT the main mixer, set it to a tempo-linked setting... OMG!

The main thing is, the SN guitar takes care of all that solo/chording stuff, makes the chords riff better, then the amp sim gives it the crunch. I have it set up so the swell pedal controls the guitar volume, and it goes from a nice semi-clean rhythm sound to a nice creamy lead sound, simply by bringing up the swell pedal. And, just like an amp, the sim stops it getting too loud at the top, so BOTH sounds sit in the mix quite nicely.

Experiment, have fun, rock on..!

I will try that asap.
I'm spending a LOT of time with it, trying to decide if it is for me. Lots of things to like for sure!

I think you went through much the same process with the PA3X.

I hope it works out for you, as it is quite a light instrument, but still packs a great sound.

How are the guitars so far...have you tried more?

Are they as good or nearly as good as your Korg's?

going through the manual for 2nd time. Dnj: you can "specify to reserve the audio file that should be played next". So I hope I can be able to record different chords, arps, whatever and match them up to live play. make sense, but fast changes might inhibit.
