It just seems to be 'Here you go... you guys deal with it how you feel like'!

We saw the initial reports seem to burst out in no official order, the demos and videos seem haphazard, varying qualities (even some that were blatant miming), no structure, no fanfare, no proud rollout. Almost as if it had leaked out unofficially.

This isn't the way Yamaha do it, or even how Korg USED to do it. It just feels so.... cheap and amateurish. :cry:
Also, the PA series is designed in Italy not Japan so japan probably don't have much control

My main concern on this PA3x: Made in Italy or China?

Post by byme88 »

I wonder if the PA3X still made in Italy? Anyone can confirm this? Thanks!

I am unsure if the PA3X is still in production - I would imagine that production has ceased but I am reasonably sure that its production remained in Italy.

I can't imagine that Korg is still building PA3X's. Would be nice to know. I'd guess that 900/600/300/3xle will still be available and built but let's face it the PA4X is a complete replacement for the PA3X.

Cheers

Yeah, I get that there are differences and not all of them known to us yet - all I meant was that it replaces the TOTL PA - PA4X will be flagship - PA3X discontinued.

Pa4x Screen

Post by ecca »

Bearing in mind that there has only been one 4x in the country for
a few days duration last week I am surprised that any judgement can
be made before we know more.
From the person trusted with the one model involved I understand the
new screen is as sensitive and quick as any Apple I pod.
A lot more things have been changed and the wait and see time is here
the Pa3 has been good and from what I have heard this is a major step
forward.
