Found out my Pa4x 76 Key is now on route to me, so getting somewhat excited to take delivery and start working my way through it. Looks like UK stock is now becoming available for anyone interested

| Yes indeed. My 76 note PA4X is due to arrive on Friday this week. The Tyros 4 is all packed up and ready to be swapped out. Let's hope I can get to grips with this new beast! |

My Pa4x arrived with me today and most of the day I have been just playing it, pushing buttons, auditioning sounds and styles.loading midi files and mp3's and my overall first impressions are that there is a lot of depth to this instrument and my view that this is a live performance product built for that task. I was hoping that the delay in shipments might have signalled this batch being shipped with a OS update, but alias that is not the case, this shipment is being sold with OS 1.02 dated 27th August 2015.
On the positive side the build quality is great the 76 key looks as good as any professional board I have ever seen, the negative remarks regarding the screen are in my view spurious, the screen is clear, bright and always informative and in a workmanlike way allows adjustments to be made at all levels.
Sound Quality ? WOW
The coming weeks and over the festive period should allow much more time to get to grips with the many pathways the Pa4x offers and I estimate it will be a at least three months before my Pa4x sees any live action by which time I hope to be in control of it.
For anyone sitting on the fence regards the Pa4x to my ears and imho it is the live players choice for an arranger and I am glad I gave the T5 its marching orders. As regards the two keyboard versions the 76 wins over the 61 note which seems almost toylike to to its shortspan but then again I am used to 88 note boards and the 76 will be just fine.

Hi, No never owned any arranger before the Pa4x is my first, having said that I have owned loads of boards over the years and the Pa4x is a additional keyboard to my band rig. I have played the Pa3x, T5 and the Roland G70 and BK5. Because I have nothing to migrate from a previous Pa series arranger I am starting of with a clean slate, I hold the view that the Pa4x sound is far more dynamic than the Pa3x, when compared to the T5 the Pa4x has a real live sound by which I mean it sounds real in a band/duo/solo setting especially through the right gear.

There is a new OS available for download (V 1.11) Keep well in mind folks that if you buy a Tyros 5 76 note its enormous and will NOT fit across
the back seat of a car.
