For this PA1000 OS 1.5.2, after update the screen shows Dec 13 2024, but the release was May 13 2025. !!!

In PA900, all of these are possible. I bought a PA1000 and see that all these functions are gone. Only Songbook can save the transpose!!!
It is shame that they took this functionality away in PA1000.

That is a big problem.
In PA900, you could savevthe transpose in both Performance (KB-Set) and style itself. In PA1000 you can't unfortunately.

Hi Duby2, Thanks for your response. Here is more explanation of the issues, at least compare to PA900. 1- PA900 had a select button in the songbook so you could browse while you are still playing without selecting a new song abruptly. Now, as soon as you touch a song it selects it. 2- I know ...

Hi Everyone, I have a PA900. I bought the PA1000 in 2018 and had issues so i got rid of it. I was waiting for a PA1000 replacement but no luck. Fast forwarding 6 years later, I just bought a new PA1000 again. I see that the sample memory has been expanded to 1 Gig compressed, which is nice. There ...

Just a note that on PA900, when you repeat the variation, it does bring back the corresponding STS if the auto-fill is on. It is a bummer that they changed that in PA1000.

Hi Siebenhirter, Thank you for your reply. I will test it again on the PA1000. But after 8 years with PA900, I am very intimately familiar with all the buttons and features and functions. Here is what is not working: 1- Turn on the style to KBD set to blinking mode 2- start playing a style 3- click ...

On the PA1000 I have noticed that once the STS/Variation link button is on,
Let's say you are on Variation 1, and you touch another sts, if you press the Variation 1 button again it does not change the sts back to the corresponding variation again. PA900 does this with no problem. Any idea?

Is it possible to change the screen color of the PA1000 like the PA900?

I hope so. The pa1000 was released in 2017. Maybe a successor this year. If they do this, the promissed updates for pa5x will take even longer, its not like they have a sepperate team that develops the pa1000, those are the same people supposed to be working on the pa5x upgrades. You got the 1.2.1 ...

Has anyone heard if there will be a baby-5X, a successor to PA1000 soon?
Thanks

Has anyone heard if there will be a baby-5X, a successor to PA1000 soon?
Thanks

I wonder, if a new replacement for PA1000 would be coming next year such as PA1500 or PA3000? I am stuck on a PA900. I had the PA1000 when it was introduced but sold it and was waiting for a new baby 5X!

Hello All,
I know this subject might have already come up in the past but does anyone know anything about the PA1000 successor. Pa5x is just too heavy to log around.

Thank you and best regards,
Shawn

Duby2, I have a Pa900 not a PA1000. I tried looking through the link you have provided but I don't see anything related to my issue. I did install the factory reset package. It did a format and install. Although it was very fast , like it took 2 minutes only but it did allow me to use the format and ...
