I have to agree not to mention the KORG is much better suited for a pro live performer also so many kool features ..

There are some great styles aboard for sure.
Here's one I recorded on the job Saturday night. WAY less than perfect, but it will give you an idea of the style.
I normally don't use factory intros or long endings, but they seemed to fit here. Lead sounds are what the style pulled up.

Both have strengths..

Dont forget about the Tyros 5 pro features..
-Ensemble voices
-Organs a step beyound just the B3
-More (memmory) and better expansions
-The vast user libraries with styles


Both are awesome arrangers, and PA4x definately has some great strengths, I also love my Kronos..

Wish Kronos, would combine the Kronos and pa4x into a stagepiano. Its still beyound me, why these pro Kronos players still cant see the usefullness of arranger styles..

We want dynamic drums, audio drums are not dynamic at all, its just a loop that sounds the same each and every time you loop it... Tough if you make longer loops, the imperfections will make it feel more vibrant...

The drums of the pa4x are best in any arranger keyboard.. Bar none..

Don ... nice take on a song that means a lot to us as it was Lydia's and my first dance at our wedding - and I picked it !!!
That's a really nice style, and the intro sounds perfect for the song "(We'll Have) Manhattan" ...

WOW !!! those jazz styles sound great ... one style I have been hoping for is a Jazz style with a 'double time' variation, and there it is ...

Don, if you have the time, could you just record the "Dual Temp Swing" style, starting at a slower tempo, say around 80BPM and then hit the 'double time' variation?
thanks much in advance ...

BTW, I also love how they set up the video so that the viewer can choose the next style to hear ... very cool ...

Tony, here is the Dual Tempo style. I used intro one, then went through the variations as I played the default STS voices, Vibes, Oct Jazz Guitar, Piano and Flugel Horn.
