Christian styles for the Pa800 Korg - 04/10/13 06:13 PM

I’m looking for some Korg Pa800 Gospel styles. There some styles on my keyboard that might pass for Christian music but if anyone has any styles that will give more of an authentic Christian sound they will be appreciated.
Thank you, John C.

There is no such thing as Christian music or a gospel style . There is only music that can be used to convey the gospel . Can you be a bit more specific or point to a YouTube example of the kind of style you are looking for ?

I am afraid you'll have to create that "christian" sound... I haven't seen many styles available for this particular music. You'll have to modify and adjust to create what you'll find most suitable.

Hi John,

If you're looking for that authentic "Black Gospel" sound, there are a few of those on the PA600 (which I think are also on the 800).

If you're wanting to play standard hymns in a more orchestral setting, check out "Soft 8 Ballad", "Love Movie", and "Love Ballad".

Then for the even wider range of Christian music, such as current worship songs and contemporary Christian music, these styles are adaptable: "Serenade", "Unplugged Ballad 2", "Slow Mood", "Groove Ballad", "Slow Beat", "8 Beat Analog", "Take Beat", and "Pop Ballad".

Yamaha has specific styles dedicated to worship and gospel - and I believe Rikki has converted some of those to Korg. You might want to check with her.

Spalding and Adimatis thanks for taking time to help.

Tim, it’s always good hearing from you. I will use some of your suggestions they sound like what I’m looking for.

Thanks again, John C.
