Reading the pa800 manual and the pa500 one i see that the pa800 has a grandpiano Rx instead on the pa500 it talks of a simple "grandpiano". Are these different?

The pa500 take the most of technology from pa800 what i don't know is if the samples in ROM are really the same

i'm not an expert but i think a big problem is the compression algorithm korg uses to store their samples. If you get a way to read and write on the E2PROM still you haven't the algorithm to store your samples in the same format kord does.

At present i've a korg x50 and i'd like to buy an arranger keyboard. Since i like modern music and rock i think a korg pa500/800 could be a good instrument. The question i have is: do x50 (TRITON ROM) and pa800 share something as preset and samples?
