Korg Pa3X Oriental comes with locked functions!!

[fResH_]

I hope and wish from KORG to make an unlock of style edit/quick record/midi for this unit. I have hoped for so long.

[Synthesizerplayer]

That is so sad. That is why one should be careful of the local versions especially if they are so expensive. As the programmers or owners of that business will put locks in place for pure business reasons.

Synthesizerplayer: Thanks for your input.. The thing is that they dont want to refund or take back the keyboard either. They got the money, and no way to get them back.. What a ripp off. Not cool. KORG should not accept this, and make a UNLOCK of all pa3x ORIENTAL keyboards. Never use lock functions on a advance keyboard like this and as expensive as this. Lebanese team should stick to casio keyboards instead, or go back to KETRON VEGA series and keep on their monopol game.

KORG instead of using the wrong method of milking their own technology
why not just make an optional customised USB key for each market.

as I believe that there is not only oriental and musikant need.

If the expected Direct From Disk of Korg Japan method will be followed by KorgPa developers team in next flagship
arranger then Kronos EXs Libraries of them or third-party developers method will also be adopted to fulfill user needs !
It's rather crystal clear that the arranger company that will follow DFD sample method will conquer the 80% of arrangers market !

Antonyyyy,, thanks finnaly!! Thats what Im trying to say all the time in all my posts........... wait what?

You talk to advance, do you have a manual for dummies? Does that have something to do with the locked issue we have.. yassaa

My reference was strictly about the right form of future customized external resources of next arranger !
In the case you're talking about , the solution is only one , not to buy this product witch is not a KorgPa anymore
Don't you understand that you focus only at a tree and missing the whole forest in front of you ?
Your problem seem to be the locked functions when the entire software and interface has been messed up and paradoxically modified !
This product is no longer a PaSeries but a Lebanon toy and not worth further discussion , only a silly consumer would
invest on something like that , and obviously nobody else is responsible !

Hello back again,

I mainly play Arabic music and about 6month ago I purchased Yamaha PSR A 2000

I am liking it, but looking and listening on YouTube to the oriental Korg Pa3x i am looking to purchase one ( you may read my latest post ref to PA3X OR!

What advise can you give me

Regards
Khalid

Khalid,

There is no need to buy the Pa3X OR because you cab purchase many of those special sounds and styles and load them on a regular Pa3X.

And - with the Pa3X you are not locked out of adding even more sounds that will become available in the future - with the OR version, what you get out of the box is all you will ever have - no way to load more sounds or make and save your own work.

I'm just sayin', from all I've read about it, but I have never laid hands on the OR.

Hey Khalid and BillyHank..

As Billyhank said, you could purchase a set with arabic stuff. I have the most. And load it to your keyboard. No need for a locked keyboard.

And billyhank, just to make little better clarification..
You still have 128/256mb free RAM SLOT, that you can load your set. the ORIENTAL stuff comes with the ROM on the keyboard. Their own styles are all locked of edit. As MUSIKANT once was.

100% true words .. The company must find a solution to this problem and to prosecute manipulators legally .. Otherwise, it will lead to the collapse of the reputation of Korg ..

[musicrazy]

If someone changed and customized the pa3x os on pa3xOR was certainly with korg knowledge because they had to provide the tools to do that otherwise would be impossible.

[Giner]

Exactly. Either this was done with Korg's knowledge, or it was an 'inside job' by someone within Korg. Either way it doesn't look good on the company and if it was an inside job, then Korg needs to root this guy out, prosecute him/her and be a bit more careful in who they employ in future.
