Good stuff.

Always good to explore something new. If I do make the jump, I'll have to order as no one I can find in Minn carries the PA4X.

Tx all

Stephen,
In the mid 1970's I was part of a group of photographers that started a studio. We did weddings, portraits, and sports photography. All of us shot with Hasselblad film cameras. Knowledge of lighting techniques and how to get the best shot was essential for success. I doubt any of us would foot the bill for the Blads today but that is how it was back then. The last wedding I shot cost me a fortune. After shooting the wedding I sent the film off for processing and that was the last I ever saw of it. I had to pay for the entire wedding to be redone just to get the pictures again. After that I stuck to sports and shot for newspapers - Dallas Cowboy games and later the Maveric games. The basketball games were really a challenge because from under the basket we were not allowed to shoot with a flash.

Anyway, didn't mean to steal the thread. By the way, I too have played with the idea of buying the Korg PA4X. I have had the PA1X and the PA2X Pro plus the MicroArranger and did enjoy them. Right now I am busy with my Ketron SD7 and my Tyros 4 and that is enough for now. One word of caution about the Korgs - make sure you register them with Korg. I had one of mine go bad - the motherboard went bad and it was outside the one year warranty period. Had I registered it I would have gotten a 2nd year and would have been covered.

I'm going to guess we have some company in that department.

Deane,

Great story on your background with photography and the Hasselblads. Very cool too on the Cowboys and Mavericks. YUP, it's all about the "light" with photography.

Sounds like you've got plenty to keep you going with the SD7 and T4.
