Sure start your own poll. I'm not really interested in the number of folks who are not interested in the PA4X. I know there are LOTS of folks in that category so it's a meaningless number to me.Vex wrote:Maybe others want answers to that ones ? You're not only one here... Or I must start my own poll???

Instead upgrade from Pa600 to Pa4x I'm going to stay with Pa600 and buy Kronos 2.
Maybe later after sort things up, upgrade OS and more positive opinion I will think about Pa4x.

Come on Vex, poll's are in the hands of their authors - don't have a go at Rick because you don't like his poll - either don't be involved in the poll or create your own - it's that easyThoraldus wrote:This poll was for my interests, KORG is quite capable of creating their own polls if they so choose.

I thought about going that route myself, but in the end the new features of the PA4X swayed me. I may still get a Kronos though, maybe next year.
By the way, I think those less than positive opinions are expressed mostly by those folks who seem to come out of the woodwork when ever a new KORG product is released. I'll go out on a limb with a prediction that the PA4X will become the most popular TOTL arranger KORG has ever produced.

Rick, don't get me wrong, I am positive about new products from Korg, but I'm just not so impress yet.Thoraldus wrote:Nemik,Nemik wrote:Instead upgrade from Pa600 to Pa4x I'm going to stay with Pa600 and buy Kronos 2.![]()

I believe after first OS update Pa4x will rocking.
For my needs PA600 is good enough, maybe more that I need it...well except missing Aftertouch.
Kronos is more useful for me now, and is a little bit cheaper

Pa4x 76 --> $4000 and Kronos2 88 --> $3700.
Edit:
BTW, I'm not performing live, I like to have in my Studio Arranger + Kronos, if I trade in my Pa600 (don't need 2 Arrangers) and get Pa4x, then I have Arranger+ not enough money for Kronos.
