Korg Forums

Using the EK50 arranger there is no way to simply manage imported style sets.

I just want to be able to sort individual styles into suitable sets of 6x16 to load to user. ( the ONLY permutation that is allowed on an EK ) and its compatible with styles suitable for PA50/80 and microarranger ....so there is no shortage of styles available!

Other than buying 'style manager' which performs lots of other things ... there is no way of doing this single simple task.....well as far as I am aware?

I just wondered if there was anything out there available to buy or a way around this ??

Korg have recently launched 3 other models with the same OS as the EK50 with no way of on-board style management, so I am sure there will be a market for this.

Any advice and help would be much app. from one non. tech. arranger player.

Thanks Keith

In fact does anyone on the Forum use the Pa Manager ?

Yes I use it with my pa1000. You have to go beyond the PA style manager and get them listed in excel spreadsheet. There is several ways to sort them, eliminate duplicates, etc. I just put out a video on this for duplicates below.

One of my favorite use for pa manager:
1. open up a set
2, click on “merge” To open another Set.
Then copy paste from the merge pa manager window to the original set. I do this to get all the bonusware found on the Korg.com site compacted to one set.

No easy solution but lately it has been quite a learning experience in discovering new ways and tricks. Let us share, but would like to here ways outside pressing the buttons on the PA...which many do...Which is ok too...
