Definitely a glitch when Korg set up this style but easily fixed in about a minute:-

For lazy users: here you can download fixed version of styles Shape Dance and Moving Forward. Simply copy styles over original versions or, if you afraid, you can load them into empty user locations.

Layer Detuning

Post by Yammo »

I use a few performances with layering, specifically brass. After the keyboard is on for 1.5 hours or so, the layers are playing different pitches and there's nothing I can do to fix it. Never had this with previous version. Really horrible in live serrings!

STS settings loses sounds and initializes to piano. I often lose sts performances while playing live.

That sounds like a fault rather than a bug.
Can you easily reproduce it? Might be worth getting it to your Korg service centre

I don't know. it was OK before ver 2.0. Maybe I need to reformat everything and starting to install things from zero.

I can confirm that with 2.01,even if i did a factory restore and reload again me set,still looses STS.....only way is to resave the STS. Os2 also sometimes switched the sts3 and sts 4 names,but not sounds...

Something new that came up,
during songbook search with filter,the instrument freezes....i have to power off and on again...

No, i cant cause i am not talking about factory styles or sounds.
I use my custom set,which i alredy had since pa800.
It worked fine on pa4x with 1.2.4 Version,i even think it was ok with V2.0 as well.
With 2.01 many songbook entries i already had and they were working fine before,now they dont recall right their STS.
What i noticed that was common in all entries, is that the first two Sts ,STS1 and STS2 worked fine as normal...
STS3 and STS4 usually have their names exchanged and in some cases even wrong sounds.....

and yes,i loose all STS in these entries when i choose another STS from factory,user or direct libraries.

Also,
while renaming some songbook entries,
I chose an entry for example,i edit tags and save it....do again the normal procedure with other entries as well,no matter if they are factory entries or some new i created myself...suddenly sometimes the screen freezes and doesnt let me chose another entry,here is how it happens :

During using songbook's filter search,after the search is complete,touch screen doesnt respond when i try to select an entry from the shown ''results'' .
I can go back and do another filter research if i wish thought,that shows that the software is not stucked , but am not able to chose any entry even if i go out of ''filter'' mode.once happens it remains like that.
Don't know if that has something to do with Upper and Lower letters while renaming the previous style entry, i will have to look for it deeper i guess...

I think there's a bug in style rec mode. I modified a style, made fills etc, in style rec mode is sounds great. When I swich to style play mode all my changes are lost. Any suggestions?

I have to refer the obvious , 'cause there is not such a bug there except the loss of Style preset intro :
- Did you wrote style from upper screen menu before exiting "Record" ?

Suddenly I ran into this video ,and on 1.48 and 1.54 can be clearly heard consequences of my reported bug ( this is a link to described bug https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8H7u2ir9KM&t=2s ) ...and this what happens on some programs after on gig (listen at marked time - be free to listen from 1.45-1.55 ) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCEJ7xei5Ss

Mono programs affected only.

I don't care if this is a compatibility issue with earlier PA arrangers or whatever, the fact is - something is happening here and annoys me- 1st with knowledge of this, and 2nd when I play keyboard and hear this stuff that shouldn't be heard.

Also don't care if you people from western countries do not use mono programs or similar like we on the east.

Korg should take look into it.
