On my last update, I forget which one I used. In the event of another update, how can I tell, or , does it make a difference?

Your PA4X will only recognise the one it needs - so even if you put both UPD and PKG files on the USB your keyboard will only detect what it needs.

1- Any direct download link for Pa4X v2?
1- Can I update directly from v1.2.1 to v2?
I want to upgrade this week end from v1.2.1 to v2.

You can upgrade from 1.2.1 OK....

http://www.korg.com/au/news/2017/0630/ MUST install 2.0.0 FIRST!!!!!
http://www.korg.com/au/news/2017/0801/ (2.0.1)

If you are unsure about UPD vs PGK then download both - your PA4X will only use the correct one.

Hi ebuzer52,
The reason for upgrading was to have more UDK slots, more functions in Style Recording
and compatibility with Korg Pa Manager software for merging styles built in v.os 2.0.1.
