Has anyone stopped by the Korg booth at NAMM to check out the Pa5x and give some much needed feedback to the Product Mangaers?

YES, We tried, Believe me or not, No one did know much about What and IF any news will be there, This is very bad.
We expected some information about OS update, but instead, they told us that there will be new stuff, and just changed the discussion .

Not much to say.

IF anyone from KORG could be helpful and just told us anything , that would be really nice.

No, not at Namm 2024, but my experience so far gives me reason to conclude that Korg employees generally across the globe have been instructed to ovoid any in-depth conversation over the well-known embarrassing start from Korgs PA5X introduction, including the slow progress coming from the PA5X development team, seen so far...

I think Korg employees have been encouraged to only talk in the language of "Damage limitation Overtones" when approached or worse, just plain ignore any difficult questions, something i hear repeatedly from others world wide in the industry and customer based...

This would seem to be the best Korg can do in way of any public relations while we Assume (Assumption is the mother of all f#*@ ups) they scrabble behind the scenes to figure out how they are going to recover from the bad press they themselves have managed to create internationally so far...

Well, We did not seen anything! It,s like 5 X is not exsisting !

I hope this will be solved soon.

This is not a normal thing for a Brand like KORG!

It is what you would expect from a company that is quietly putting aside a bad news loser product .
