..I'm a PA900 user... in my opinion I prefer it way better than my Tyros 4... sounds more 'alive' and real to me..especially when gigging...
Would I get any benefit from 'upgrading' to one of the many PA3x's out there due to those that have P/exed for the the PA4x.....

I'm not into midi'ing or synth effects...just get a style..modify it to my taste and then play.... simple as that...

Your opinions would be welcome...

i am only answering cause of the way you said you just get a style , change it a little 7 ur ready to play …thats me too ...don't no about the pa900 but i contemplated going from the 800 to either the 900 or 3x ,,well , i haven't been disappoint at any point since i got my 3x ,,after so many pro & cons from a zillion people ,every one always said the same thing ,if the $$$ aren't a problem go for the 3x … its an amazing machine,the styles are sooo real sounding ..OH & the prices are going down …wait for one of those deals where you get an extra % off , free shipping & 18 month no interest .. feel free to contact me with any questions ,although i am not one of those technical wizards
ps if you like go to soundcloud.com/urezzio-al you can listen to my live recordings

Have to reply al. You are right. the 3x is a amazing machine.Wouldn't part with it no matter what they say about the 4x.
I looked on soundcloud. Very good music. My congrats. Is that a shure you are using. It's what I use.

thanks for given a listen , yup ,my mic is a sure sm58 …its great for recordings & live too … might as well ask ..do you create your own custom styles ??? i don't & I'm always l,poking for new one to write my original songs to .. the styles everyone posts i can never get to save to a thumb drive …i only have success when they are in a ZIP file ..well again thanks for the listen , will give you a shout out when i listen to your music

It's possible the thumbdrive is formatted wrong or you are trying to use usb3.Korg doesn't like that. There are many styles on create song styles site
so go have a look.
I sometimes use styles to do a song but mostly I just turn midis(good ones)
into audio. I never understand why people turn their noses up and say "you should use styles"
The pa3x is perfect for doing all these and more.

first off thanks for the replies , any & all really help …i just found a you tube for creating styles ,gonna give it a shot ,thanks …now for the question i don't understand ..when i get a style from the download page ,its usual a zip file ,tgoing to my usb drive , i click on it and it opens ,,,when they are not zip files they just load but don't register on the 3x ,, how do i check my drive 7 whats the right one to use ..???also you mentioned something about midi files , these are grooves i can load into my 3x ??? how do i do this ??? can i find a you tube about midi files ??? thanks for all your help

forgot to mention i got a chance to listen to your page , really enjoyed your tunes ,great grooves & sounds

Al You might be misunderstanding the way the files system works. The zip files should contain a favorites folder which has PCM,Pad,sound, style.
These are the ones on this site and CSS site. Open the style,you will get favoite. Open favorite and the 4 styles will appear.Touch any one and load.
Press select to put the style where you want(rename is also available)
Pess favorite user on the board under style select. The style should be where you put it. Select style and play.
If this is of any help then good.
I think this is what you are asking for.

PS the pearl drums are also worth saving.

As a Pa3x owner, I love it. Now with the Pa4x out, buy it! Although, I was kind of disappointed in the screen. I use my Ipad for my songbook, no problem with connection. But you need the midi to Bluetooth adapter. Only thing this uses up your midi ports for this purpose only. PA1X had two sets of Midi in/out.
Why not Korg do away with the screen and have Bluetooth connection to Ipad or PC pad? If you want a larger screen get the ipad pro and read in almost page size. I think Roland is doing some Bluetooth stuff on there pianos????

Does anyone know if Korg has some units that have bluetooth feature?????

Cheers!
