But did not complete the registration procedure since I made the purchase from a computer different from the one I will use for the software.

Thats correct. It's about double what I expected. Should have said not cheap for some people...

Having a keyboard of $3000+, and playing on crappy PA, not appreciating knowledge and time of style/set/software developers, and on the end telling something it is expensive?!

Does it make a sense??

Guys, buy yourself Casio from Costco, style/sound manager comes for FREE!

I suppose it could be seen as 'expensive' by some, but if you can afford a TOTL arranger ($4200 in this neck of the woods), then $70 shouldn't present too much of a problem. A bit like buying a Ferrari and then moaning about having to put premium gas in the tank.

If it functions properly, It's actually very cheap!

Just bought my copy this morning. As soon as I get a chance, I'll run some tests and will share my personal feedback.

Thats the point, paying some 3000-4000$ for a keyboard, than having to pay for .SET manager separately is a bit harsh. Having that said, 70$ is cheap considering the time you save with the software.

I've been combining SET's one week after I got the keyboard, no need for a casio, and what does crappy PA have to do with the software?

You do realize that this software is NOT an official release from KORG, right? This is a 3rd party software developed by another user just like you! Many tried to come up with something and ALL failed. This is the first time ever that's someone managed to come up with something interesting and promising.

In other word, you don't have to pay for this at all if you don't need it! It's completely optional.

I already know for fact this software let's you see inside a SET. It gives you a very detailed look. That alone is a huge time saver for me. As far as other features go, I don't even know if it works as advertised just yet but I'm about to find out.

Again, this is not a GPS or Angry Birds app! Those apps deal with millions of potential buyers around the world and the profit is just unbelievable. These small user specific programs are not like that at all.

Well your comment certainly doesn't make sense.
So please don't tell me you actually paid $3000+ for your Casio!!!
Don't get me wrong, I like Casio - and they make awesome calculators.

You clearly have no idea about this topic, the Korg PA3X, or the excellent 3rd party software we are talking about.
