@ £4249 for the Ketron Event No way on the planet. In the UK there is effectively Zero distribution, Zero network, Zero Music Stores that stock it. Then there is the price, the 5X is stupid money especially for a Beta product so who in their right mind would pay £4k for an arranger. The comparing o ...

Think he’s planning on selling it. Wonder who would feel safe buying secondhand, unless warranties are transferable?? I don’t know . . They are NOT transferrable I have understood with Bonners, but I will double check with them. Korg state the following so I suspect that is correct: This warranty is ...

Re: "Bad noisy rattling keybed on Korg Pa5X 88??"

What do you like about Pa5x 88 keybed? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mys3xzQhSnQ I like mine because it feels fine and plays well. And it doesn't rattle. He did send it back by the way. Which, in my opinion, he could have just done without all the fuss. Cheers Chris What fuss? I didn't send it ...

Thanks Kleant. Yes I was surprised it was removed as I tried to be quite respectful towards Korg and also saying "i really tried to like the keyboard". I'm glad people saw it though. The YouTube video is staying up! I hope everyone considering a PA5X 88 sees it. The fact I can get a top of the range ...

FYI. An Admin from the official Korg PA5X facebook group deleted my post in which I shared my video showing the rattling keys. All the comments are of course gone as well. Note that this group is ran by Korg as far as I am aware since it is always mentioned in the official PA5X software update ...

thank you for the interesting article and the video. here in this post it says that it should be a Fatar TP/40. https://yamahamusicians.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11929 http://www.fatar.com/Pages/TP_40_GH_ES.htm Hi Ruben, very interesting reading that list. I’ve never really paid any attention to w ...

For arranger material I don't think this is suitable. You have to play hard to get good sound and cut through the mix with a style. This is the first time owning a keyboard where family members have commented on "what is all that loud clunking coming from the music room. Hi , did you consider ...

The fact that Fatar has such a poor official website is maybe telling about the quality of their products. Holy hell. :shock: I see many people quite happy with the NI S88 master keyboards. In fact the only people I see slate Fatar are real pianists on pianoworld. Maybe I should have listened to ...

I am disappointed with the PA5X 88. The keybed is too noisy for me. I was probably fooling myself initially thinking things were fine, but they were not. It is the worst weighted action I've owned in terms of loudness. (Have owned Yamaha / Casio / Roland / Nord and Kawai weighted actions) Sorry if I ...

In Australia, you can buy any of the Pa5x models at discount of about 20% off recommended retail price. But they are all pre-orders, no stock available. The RRP's in the UK and Europe seem to be about 20% lower than in Australia and US. :lol: I'm actually surprised about that considering the pound ...

With inflation in many countries running at 10%, supply problems and many currencies devaluing against the dollar I don't think you are going to see many discounts soon. Maybe a couple of hundred bucks towards Christmas but that would be it. Maybe in 4-5 years like what's happened with the Genos ...

There ISN'T a delay with the 88 key version. The keybed feels somewhat soft to me which I'm glad about. No idea which one it is. I traded in my Roland RD2000. I hated that keybed and glad to see the back of it. The worst "weighted" keybed I have owned. Far too hard and nothing like a real piano ...

There ISN'T a delay with the 88 key version. Bonners sold out of theirs straight away on launch day and I got the last one. It's in my music room now. Delivered this morning. The keybed feels somewhat soft to me which I'm glad about. No idea which one it is. I traded in my Roland RD2000. I hated ...

Re: NativeInstruments Komplete Series don't work on Midi

i had the (bad) idea to connect the korg pa4x with a native instruments komplete s88. I had to realise that this is not possible. Native Instruments has cut all connection possibilities with other keyboards with the latest firmware. There is only the Native Instruments system and they don't want to ...
