Re: Korg still have not included WAV files for players...

hi all , here we are in 2025 and the PA5x doesn't record or play .wav .alac .flac or even .ogg files, and maximum .mp3 bitrate is 256 . I agree with experts on here the difference between ,wav and mp3 is very clear IF you have good audio equipment; if none of your speakers are bigger than 4 or 5 ...

Re: better quality audio

hi keys fla, thanks for the video but it exactly shows my problem it is a simple tune but even it has no depth , no breadth no nuance all the subtleties that I am looking for the audio rate is 250 kbps which is the PA5x limit anyway so only a sixth of the audio data a cd quality recording would have ...

Re: better quality audio

yes , just pressing rec/edit highest resolution( only 256kbps one seventh of the basic resolution) and recording what is recorded is clearly not anywhere near the live original as listened to on speakers or headphones and much thinner than some recordings done on the computer to .wav format it seems ...

Re: better quality audio

Re: better quality audio

hi I posted a reply thanking you for your advice but it has disappeared so thanks , there is a demo on yt demonstrating the difference between the 4x and the 5x and in it the 5x sounds are described as " rich" exactly what I don't like , I hear them as fuzzy the 4x has " edge" which suits my musical ...

better quality audio

hello all what is the easiest way to get high quality recordings with the PA5x the mp3 just doesn't do it, connecting up audio cables seems so last century plus I can't lug everything around. the mp3 even at top quality does not sound right with high power ( 3 x 120watt) wav files sound fine can ...

Re: Can't Record since getting this warning

are you changing the name before saving or recording? what you post is a normal warning to prevent over-writing , is this mp3 which you can't overwrite or midi?

Re: PA5x - suggested changes & enhancements OS 1.3.0 only

now that the pA5X has a 1Tb drive and a similar drive could be fitted to the PA4x or even 3x couldn't korg partition the drive so users don't lose all their data in an update a 2Tb drive would be even better or even an external sata or other interface socket for an extra drive. Or has something like ...

I understand some multisamples don ...

hi , very helpful article , clearly making it a factory job to replace a common £1.50 lithium battery is a nonsense , has anyone here returned their keyboard to korg for the 2032 battery replacement ? how much did it cost , with carriage charges I would think it could be £100+ and if you get stopped ...
