Keyboard World Korg Pa5x Software

Post by MyKorgPa5x »

Anyone have experience to share for Keyboard World's two Korg Pa5x software?

Can these be merged into an existing user set with Pa Manager?

Are there samples/demos available to listen to?

Hi,
My suggestion would be to speak to Steve at Keysounds or Paul Carmen at Keyboard Academy as they both know about this software. I would think the answer is yes because the software would come as a .KST file and PA Manager enables you to create your own custom .KST file by merging other .KST files together.

Hi, Fellas, Be careful dealing with Keyboard World. Tried contacting them by phone and email, with NO success. I went to their website to purchase Ultimate Pa5x software. Cant even do that. Maybe they're closed for good.

Hi,
Keyboard World is run by Keysounds who have a large Store in Hinckley (Near Leicester) in the Midlands U.K. and definitely not 'Closed for good'.

The owner Steve will answer any questions you have regarding the software.
I have purchased several keyboards from them with no problems.

Hi, i purchased the software, and it's just fantastic. Good value for that price.
I'm also subscribed to their online magazine and webinars.

Paul is also a great musician.

Greetings,

Dirk
I don't use MP3 or midi-files. Just styles from my keyboard.

Hi Chelsea, Thanks for the site. I made the purchase. Do you have any info about the "Ultimate Tool Kit"? If you have the link I'd appreciate it.

A couple of comments about this demo and the Keyboard World website in general:

First of all, if you'd like to skip the genial "How are you?" stuff, the actual demo starts at 12:37.

Oddly, there doesn't appear to be a link to this demo on the Keyboard World website itself.

I suspect that fjs714 is - like me - running some sort of privacy protection extensions in his browser. I do this, and it rendered much of the KW website inaccessible or inoperative, including any attempt to purchase this software. Based on my experience, visitors should turn off all privacy protection if you want the site to work as it should.

Hi,

I recently purchased the Toolkit software from Keyboard Academy for U.K.£99.
No problems loading as full instructions are included in the zip file.
I'm slowly working through the keyboard sets and I'm quite happy with the selection given. They are good templates to work with and obviously you can make adjustments and re-save to your own personal taste.

Below is Paul Carmen's Demo video of the software.

Hi,
Yesterday I posted a link to the Key Academy Toolkit software that comes in at under £100 U.K. I purchased it myself a few days ago and have not had enough time with it yet, but so far I'm enjoying it. The video explains a lot of what's in the software. As I am aware, there are no new samples added, just a reworking and edits of existing sounds. There are however, quite a few new and re-worked styles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPlWBNLTOMc

What I have decided already is than in comparison to other software being sold for the PA5X is that it is great value. I believe one Forum Member paid over £170 U.K. for a single piano sound and the Global Sound software for the pA5X is over £220 U.K. All three sets of of software are of the highest quality, which does bode well for the PA5X.
Even if you have no interest in the Toolkit software, the video is worth a watch as its quite entertaining.

Hi Fellas, I was able to purchase the software styles for the Pa5x. They were very nice. However, I am totally unable to purchase the Ultimate Tool Kit. I've written emails but to no avail. I even called Key Sound from the U.S. They said they would forward my request to Keyboard World---No response. I've never had such a difficult time spending money in my life. If any one has a copy I am happy to send money to your PayPal account.
Thanks,
Frank
