Very well spoken. I bet it took you more than a week to figure out and get tuned-up to the Pa600. I am glad you like what you got. I am.

I've had my PA600 for a year now and I'm still learning new tricks. I am SO happy this puppy doesn't have a steel case. I can't imagine trying to lug that weight around. High impact resistant plastic does have its uses, ask any US footballer. ;-) There are only a couple features that I miss on my PA600; Second touch, Sampling and Digital Drawbars. I will add a PA900 to my 'stack' later this summer. The more keys the merrier if you're an 'organist' ;-)

The Pa900 is basically an upgrade of Pa600. The Pa800 is still superior over Pa900 in many ways.
Here's a quote directly from Korg ....

"Pa900 is the new intermediate model. Sharing many of the technical innovations with Pa3X, and the minimalistic design with Pa600, it is at the same time a worthy successor of the legendary and best selling Pa800 and a massive leap forward to a new generaton of professional arrangers."

I am glad you love your Pa600. I looked at the 600 also. The only reason I bought a Pa900 was. becasue of a couple of features you already mentioned. Everyday I find new features on this machine. Sometimes it's like a kid in a candy store.
The platic case is perfect for me, carrying it around. The lighter the better.
The features are astounding. So many features are not even listed in the spec sheet.

Well Mr Snorkum I'm back to let you know you were right, this 900 is great, everyday something new amazes me, and with help from Rueben I'm definitely impressed with the features that makes performing with it a real treat. ( I still think black would have been more impressive).

I see. First you trash talk the Pa900, calling it a toy from Toys'R'Us, critisize some of the features and sound, than come back and telling me it's great and that something new amazes you every day. And you calling me a qualified Ahole. LMAO.
