Yeah, I was going to consider it, but at over $300 AUD, it's gonna stay on the shelf haha!

Not saying you don't deserve it, it's just too much for me...especially as a lot of the functions CAN be done on the PA itself, albeit a little more awkwardly.

Has anyone used PA Manager on a MAC?
I know it is not supported but it also says that you can try to use “Boot Camp” and I’m curious to know if anyone has tried this successfully.

Thank you.

I just upgraded to V5. Tried to load a .kst and it said some files are missing. Need to contact them.
With the Korg 1.2 update, the conversion from .set to .kst seems to work the same as I see it.
I may not be using it as I do not need the extra features of time slicing.
Will report on this in future.

Not sure about today (V5), but in the past, this did not work due to the way it handles licenses

BOOT CAMP ROCKS

YES worked before and Works now also.

Best is if you have an Older PC to install it on, Some one in your near must have something, Not 12 year old but maybe 2016 model. Its something that is not so expensive to fix anyway, Used PC 2018 cost here 150/200 euros only!
Its a great tool.

I have version 4 and it was very good program until today.

When I click on it to open it, a message pops up and asking to download and try version 5.
When I click on No, the message closes but it does not lunch the old version 4.
That's weird.

I have my Pa4X not the Pa5X. Why should I download and try Korg Pa Manager 5?!

You don't have to try new version.
Go to website, download latest version of KPM (4.1), reinstall and then will work without trying ver. 5.

Thanks Nemik for the tip.
I have already KPM 4.1 installed in my pc and worked without any problem until yesterday.

Is not a tip, is only one solution.

Same happen to me and I contacted them.
They responded to me: Get latest version.

That's why I pass this to you.
Reinstall to latest version 4.1.5301 and problem solve.

P.S. Is must be latest version !!!

I tried installing the Demo V5 from the link you emailed me but after install it said "Demo Period has expired" so I uninstalled it.

That was the first time I had installed it so I don't know how the Demo period could possibly have expired.

I also tried installing it, wanted to see how it will convert Triton drum kits into pa format.... but it keeps saying: Unable to establish connection, antivirus or firewall blocking the Internet.
I disabled both the antivirus and firewall, and it didn't help. I also tried pa4 version, but the same results... very annoying.

Hi,
I have had PA Manager the whole time I have had Korg arrangers. I just upgraded to Version 5 but have never really used the program (even when I had Version 4 for my PA4X). I find the lack of a manual a bit strange, but Korg could learn from the writers of PA Manager. It's very well supported with regular software updates and you can easily contact them on the Website if you have a question and they normally respond in a few hours.
