i am looking for a korg pa1x mp3 expansion board (EXBP-MP3). i wouldn't mind if it is a second hand one, as long as it is in good working condition.
please contact me if you have one.
I am also looking for the mp3 expansion board for my PA1X Pro. All the vendors I have contacted say they are obsolete and have been discontinued. There are many PA1X Pro's out there, some still in the box and there is still a demand for this board. I contacted Korg USA and was informed that I was out of luck.
I need to record and this seems the best way to do it. I would appreciate any responses.
I was unable to locate an expansion board for my PA1X Pro and received the same answer from Korg USA. The solution I found was to purchase the Edirol R-09 24/48 kHz bit WAVE/MP3 recorder from a vendor on Amazon.com.
The unit is made by Roland and is more expensive than the expansion board, but it has some advantages. It can be used as an outboard recorder with high quality built-in mics or you can patch it to the right and left outputs of the PA1X with two standard microphone lines feeding into an adapter stereo mini-plug. I found the cables at Radio Shack. The unit can record MP3's at 320 Kbps or even better can make CD and studio quality 24 bit/48 kHz recordings which you can feed to a PC via USB.
I found this to be a very satisfactory alternative since the Korg board cannot make Wave files at the higher bit rate. The sound quality is superb.
Hi everybody.
I have just purchased a PA 1X in Italy and I would like to upgrade it with the MP3 board. Is there anybody willing to sell it or able to give me hints on where I may find one?? Thank you very much,
Francesco
