 Posted: Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:36 pm Post subject: How many factory preset styles does the pa3x actually have? |
 |
|
The Korg website and online store descriptions say the pa3x has "over 400 styles" but saw a Korg demo video where the the rep said it has "over 500 styles". Can anyone check their style bank and tell me the actual total of original factory styles available? Tyros always said over 500 but all but one Korg source said over 400. That's a big difference. Thanks.

Thanks a lot for sharing that info. The video demonstrator I had seen, mentioning over 500 styles, threw me off. I guess it was wishful thinking. Hopefully, the pa3x will make up the difference in the quality of the styles. I'd rather have 400 I could use than have 500 with half not being good.

They seem to be selling Oriental versions in Lebanon and Turkey. Check out YouTube. "Korg PA3X Oriental"

I think you'll find that the ability to edit factory styles is a MAJOR plus for all Korg PA keyboards. If a factory style is not quite what you need, a quick edit can usually do the trick. If that doesn't get it you can of course create your own custom styles from scratch. (Not as hard as it may sound)
