Yes Don M has been on top of me for a while & thru the years he has always been right wink ....and as many well know I was a big KORG man for a long time having almost all the KORG arranger KBs in the past since their first one in the early 80'smy old KORG SAS 20 Personal arranger. I am quiet well versed in their OS
And before that many Synths too like the M1, T2, etc,..I've had a love/hate relationship with KORG thru the years.
But at this time with a few recording projects coming up, I felt that the PA4x and all of it's New improvements over my Pa3x that it would do just what I needed and beyond in a KB arranger workstation scenario for my needs now musically and vocally, although there are a few other ways I could go but I'll start with this for now,... Let me also say that the S970 is no slouch by any means and has been very good to me the last 6 months. But now it's time to move on & I want to find her a very good home, I Know someone will be very happy with this Mint S970.

You could play a "washboard" and still bring out the best....You do have the talent to work with any media with authority !!!

I was honored to be the first, to bestow:
Don Mason, from now on, to be known as the "Southern Gentleman" ,
travlin'easy, from now on, to be known as "Chairman of the Board"
and now Dnj, the "Hardest working man in show business"

And let me be the first of many to say that, this Forum is very grateful and fortunate for these three Musicians to share their knowledge with us.

Bravo, Bravo, Bravo

Congratulations Donny,
Don's shown you the light. Haha

Seriously, though, I wouldn't have thought Korg could improve much on the pa3x, but they did.

Everyone kept saying what an improvement the pa4x was over the pa3x, anyway, all that pleading with hubby to allow me to get one, ( actually grovelling is the better term haha) was worth it, it sounds great and I luv it.

Hope it won't be too long till you get yours.

Still got my S970 but truth be known, it's gathering dust since I started using my PA 4X at gigs.

FWIW, I think Yamaha is playing catch up to Korg.

Yes, it will probably be called Genos and arive in late 2017...
It will probably have a lot of the tech of the Montage... Like a huge step in DSP
Also will see the new things of the psrs970 like the knobs and the deejay styles
And then some fresh new things. Probably the piano room feature of the cvp709 too..
With the new processor maybe even more audio in styles then Ketron now, Yamaha has the tech patented, its only a matter of time till we see it..

The Genos might not look much like the Tyros, probably a big touchscreen, and less realtime buttons ... I personally think it will be more of a true arranger WORKSTATION as thats where the Montage left room for growth with their move towards performance synth.

Only time will tell.... But seems like Genos might be a step as huge as from MOTIF to MONTAGE and even more.... Once a decade or so, Yamaha realises it needs to make a huge step...
