Shame .... Pa1xpro

I read the manual of pa1x, it does not have
punch in and loop recording function in its
sequencer.I am realy shocked that it could
have soooo poor squencer.Do u agree?

I haven't been able to read the Manual because the one posted over at the German site is corrupted. shakeel, if you know of a URL link that has a good copy of the Pa1XPro Manual we would all appreciate it if you could post the link. The URL that was posted by James Tubbritt is the one that has the corrupted PDF file. It was posted under this thread: "Korg pa1x A question for George Kaye". Thanks shakeel.

Best regards,
Mike

Manual download at bottom of page.

Do you know if it uses a standard Compact Flash card for sampling or is it the expensive proprietary Korg card? I think it only supports 16MB, which is a shame in my opinion.

Anyone compared PA80 to PA1X, is it really worth the upgrade?

Sorry to inform you but that is the very URL link that has the corrupted PDF file. I am using Adobe Acrobat 6 to try to open it and it won't open.......................... Unless Korg.de has fixed it from 2 days ago I won't waste my time downloading it again only to find out it is still corrupted.

I downloaded the manual from there - works fine!

I'd be happy to email it to you.

My email is BlazeVB@aol.com

In fact, I want you to have the manual!
I'm very interested in your impressions and any comments you may have...

Sincerely, Blaze

Keybplayer,
I think the problem comes from acrobat 6.0

I had the same problem.

Try with acrobat 5.0 and you will see that the files are ok.

The Manual is 23 Mb. AOL has a 16 Mb limit so I will not be able to email it...

Give the link another try!

Best wishes, Blaze

Hmmm.. If this is like the PA80 was when it was released, then it is possible that some of the important features may come in later OS releases. I hope that I'm wrong though and that korg does not make this mistake again.

On the other hand, if this thing is as good as it sounds from the demo, I probably won't care all that much anyway. Any serious work in my studio is almost alwasy done in a software sequencer. I almost never use the PA80's sequencer to record my work, but I have used the pattern seqeuncer quite a bit to record my real time playing to style parts.

Hello,
It is coorupted, if you d/l it as zip file !!! You must give it opens himself to
Acrobat Reader and therefore SAVE on there.
But not before it is downloaded himself fully to Adobe. That SAVE is on there Adobe
Reader's top menu.

I tried d/l it 3 times by using that .zip
format, but each time it was corrupted.
However works fine when you allowe its d/l
first to Adobe Reader and after that save it.

Ha! It looks like Korg has taken the PDF Manual download off the site - "for repair I hope." If I right click the link either a .gif file or HTML file is in the save box NOT the PDF file. If I click on the Demo downloads link or the 'Song Filer' download link it works fine. Anybody else notice the same thing?

PS: Word gets around fast I guess... Korg people are in our audience and apparently they notified KorgPA.de of the problem. A professional Company like Korg needs to keep on top of these petty things or before you know it they're thought of as a sub-par Company known for producing sub-par products imo. So I'm glad they got on top to this corrupted PDF file situation. Hopefully they won't wait until the Pa1xpro is released to give us a workable copy PDF file. Or we could be waiting a lonnggggggggggggg time.

Best regards,
Mike
