Just couldn't pass up a great deal on a PA4x w/soundbar too.
don't know if SX900 is enough for my needs,
the pre-order delay was a great advantage in the thinking, comparison, and reviews made me realize whats best for me
...thank you all.

Welcome back ...

PA4x is a great choice for sure! Congrats Donny!

Donny,

Can’t go wrong with a Pa4x I know i enjoy mine! Enjoy!

Thanx fellas...
It's my 3rd one..

I always come back to it...
Pro arranger kb in every way...
And too many must have features to pass up.

Good choice Donny. Good luck with it. Third times a charm
JM

The pa4x is an incredible keyboard..
Top of the line from Korg, atleast untill later this year when the pa5x is expected to launch..

Not that a new keyboard makes the pa4x any less then it allready is..

Thank you Bachus.... I agree,...having 2 previously
I was silly to switch out and explore.
It checks all the boxes for this singer/player
in so many ways vs the Sx900.

Beat me to it



Beat me to it.

Way to go Donny. It is certainly my go to keyboard.

Thanx Bernie I appreciate that a whole bunch..

Great sounds, styles, a big tilt screen, and the best VH on the market. What more could you ever need?

Thanx Paul when I weighed all the options vs the Sx900
and all the features for MY needs I think I made the right choice.

Donny, when I tried it once at a local store, I remember thinking how great the keys were! The sounds were very good as well. Congrats! You're search is over.

Mike thanx you are so right the Pa4x keybed is excellent,....
slider control amazing TC helicon VH, chord sequencer, tilt up display, smf to style converter, song book, dual mp3 player, and so much more.

It will make you sound your best!

i had pax4 and i enjoid it .
but than Genos came and i felt that for my taste it was a dream come true , and after a year i still feel the same.

It's all about personal taste.

OK, you made your decision ... FOR NOW
(to be continued) BTW - it wasn't mine that he bought.

No dave you had your chance

lololololol

AMEN !!!

Nice one Donny, it was always what you really wanted and where your heart was. I would love to see a PA4x, it looks and sounds incredible.

Luckily for me, Bonners Music (which is also where I got my SX900 from) are opening up a third store fairly close to my town soon which will finally enable me to visit a music store and try out all these lovely boards.

Thanx Fran.... Who knows a couple of tradeins and you take home a Pa4x.

Given that you are a professional musician, I find it natural that you need a high grade instrument. Other units can be useful too and everyone needs changes, but as a primary unit, I think, an advanced machine like PA4X is a right choice. Obviously, later there will be better deals on SX900 and a variety of smaller units will come out that can be used as an addition to PA4X.

Glad your happy and settled Donny. The indecision can be daunting. If I were in the market for a new board the PA4X would be my choice too. Bueatiful instrument.
Just as a sidebar I sat in with a band the other night and the BK9 really shined being played as a straight synth. Especially the Hammond sounds. The guys were blown away with it.

Thanx Bill so much..

Good Choice DNG...Let's hear you shine. HAVE FUN!

Good for you, Bill ...

Congratulations Donny,
Enjoy.

Rikki... Much appreciated Thanx

As I have said, I feel the PA4x is best for my needs, except the keys. The older I get, the harder it is to make four hours without my fingers and wrists aching afterwards.
I'm finding the EA7 more than adequate right now.

Don, did you sell yours?

Thank you to all for the congrats & support....
I didn't know there were so many dedicated "Korgies" out there..

KORG Pa4X NEXT V3

Wish I had that "Mood Swing" style on my Pa900 ... Great intro and ending ...
Enjoy it, Donny ...


PS:my Kn6000 has a very good style for that also ... different,- more for "Chattanooga Choo Choo", but still very good ...

Thanx Tony yes love the jazz styles ......common fedex

Gunnar oh yes love when this guy demonstrates KORG products....
I have V3.10 ready to load when it arrives if needed also thanx

Sounds great Donny! Beautiful song.

Proper job, Col

Don coming from a pro like you I thank you buddy..

Col..so appreciated...I shortened it a bit for copyright purposes
thanx for the listen..

Beautifully done, Donny ...
A great Steve Lawrence song which I haven't thought about in a looong time ...
Thank you

PS ... I'm sorry you shortened it ... If you are not profiting from it does violate a copyright?

Tony Gracie my good friend ...
I know this song will stick in your mind all week lol....
maybe we can hear a version of yours sometime also..
have a great weekend.

Hi Don, I put 2+2 together and came up with 3. Haha

I suppose in your studio , you just play for as long as you feel comfortable, Work, different situation.

Profit has nothing to do with copyrights. It is all about the permission to make, and/or distribute a copy. I'm no choir boy in this area, but the laws are far from perfect or fair to the composers, and artists.

Donny, it's a lovely melody and very nice vocal. Voice smooth like velvet.

🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵 👍

Lovely Donny, I've listened to it a few times and it's really lovely.

Gunnar mucho Gracias.. Thank you for listening

Wow Danny more then once? Thanx

I can't wait to play it with the new OS..

Splendid! Great voice, thanks Donny for sharing.

Yes, Donny, you are a great singer and it is a very beautiful song.

Enjoyed that....

Thank you sir..... Love your new logo pic also..
Appreciate the listen..

Just got Home...I listened and Wow!....I'm feeling better already...Beautiful. I wished You lived near...We would love to Invite You to do a set at "Music by the Lake" You would pack the House Brother...If Fran is reading this, Kick his But if He's sells the 4X Ok?...On the serious side LOVE your Vocals and style...You are Blessed.....Harold

Thanx Harold so much...

Hi Donny,
Beyond my comprehension why buy then sell the PA4X’s . You’re a match made in heaven.
Really enjoyed the song.

Donny,

Plenty of good things have been said, all I can say is ditto to all. My favorite that you have done on the Korg is “ A Lovely Way to Spend An Evening.” Nice job paesan.

Steve... Luv you man... Thanx!

Rikki I'm a very fickle man I guess.. Lol

Super job Donny! Excellent vocal, recording and playing all around! Thanks for sharing!

Randy so kind of you.... Thanx

My previous Pa4x only had V2....
I look forward to this new V3.10 version update

Great vocal and arrangement! I hope we get to hear a lot more coming from your new acquisition

Thank you Paul.....I will surly try to accommodate ..
once I get re-familiarized.

Good stuff Donnie. With those quality backing sounds why would you need anything else.
Good luck with your new keyboard and it looks like you made a good decision going back to the Korg again.

Donny, I just awoke after 36 hours of listening to whining inmates. This song made me realize the finer things in life. Thanks for making me feel good this morning.
JM

Sorry I just got around to listening, Donny - great vocals on that song and excellent backing tracks.

Gary

Thanx Gary for the listen its a KORG 3rd party ballad style ..

Compliments from Holland Donny.
May we assume you will now finally lay your head to rest with Korg ? a Pro needs a Pro tool, which you have now and in moments of slight mental perturbance you decided to flog twice, but I am glad you have seen the light again. The song you posted is
"meraviglioso" !!!!!

John

P.S. you can always add a used PSR yamaha to the rig, just for the hell of it

Thank you John.... Third time is the charm!

... now I don't feel so bad having been married 3 times.

I'm a member of that club! Lesson learned, I'm not marrying ANY MORE 18-year-old girls.
Three is more than enough.

I am a member too, but Anneliese and I have been married twenty five years. I think she is going to keep me.

Susan and I celebrated our 39th anniversary this month. Seven, Three and Thirty-nine for me!

Three, Nineteen, and (gulp) SEVEN MONTHS .... never again. My kids have forbid me, unless they approve the whole thing.I shoulda bought that sports car!

Mine are eleven, 6 months, and twenty five. The second was the accordion player who needed a daddy to discipline her teenage delinquents. You can guess the chances of that succeeding.

Five, seventeen, and TBD if I do it again. Someone told me "Never say never"...

I was about to listen to this recording again, but had to find out that it’s no longer there. That’s a pity!
