Any chance we will see a 1.3 or 1.5 patch any time soon?

Yes of course.
And the Кorg team is asking the same question.

I spot some sarcasm in the comments here. But why exactly? I think 90% of the Pa5X OS is fine, and 10% still needs improvement. For Pro users, this may disrupt his or her work. But overall I think a practically new OS is doing well and Korg has done a good job. Other brands really don't do better.

I think it's the lack of communication from Korg that is irritating people.

On the KORG PA5X page I read the following FAQ's, so there will be future updates and big ones too. The OS is totally new and will take some time for the developers to redesign and refactor everything. And that is normal in the software industry.

USB Key and microSD-Protected Data
Q: Will it be possible to load encrypted data coming from older PaX models into Pa5X?
A: Only data that is made specifically for the Pa5X will be loadable into the Pa5X. SNO. You cannot load any data or use any microSD card from any other Korg Pa Series arranger. Only data that is made specifically for the Pa5X will be loadable into the Pa5X. Since the Pa5X runs on a completely new system, there is a new system for encrypted data and this new system cannot support Pa4X encryption. Details will be available very soon about localization possibilities.

Vocal processor preset compatibility
Q: Are the vocal processor presets from Pa4X compatible with Pa5X?
A: : Since the Pa5X contains a completely new vocal processor from Shift-Audio (the Pa4X vocal processing was handled by TC) the presets are not compatible. However, the effect modules inside the Shift-Audio vocal processor are similar, so you can rebuild the presets easily. In addition, the new SongBook conversion used in version 1.2.0 will automatically remap to the most similar presets in the Pa5X. .

Copy Keyboard Set
Q: Will the Pa5X have a feature like Copy KBD Set for SongBook entries and Styles?
A: Yes. The Pa5X will have new features to handle copying and even swapping of Keyboard Sets and SongBook entries. We are targeting this to be available in the next OS update, date TBA.

Style Creator Bot
Q: Will a Style Creator Bot be available in future updates?
A: Yes. A tool similar to the Style Creator Bot will be implemented. Since the Pa5X is a completely new product, the instrument offers a lot of possibilities for tweaking Style-data in new ways to be explored in the future OS updates. We are targeting this to be available in the next OS update, date TBA.

Quick Recording
Q: Will recording tools such as Quick Record be present in upcoming OS releases?
A: Yes. We are working on a new design of the Quick Record engine as part of a future OS release that will take full advantage of the powerful new Pa5X engine. We are targeting this to be available in the next OS update, date TBA.

KAOSS Pad
Q: With the KAOSS on-screen FX feature currently found on other Pa Series models make its way to Pa5X?
Yes. We are targeting this to be available in the next OS update, date TBA.

Hardware Options
Q: Will there be a replacement for the EC5 foot switch?
A: The EC5 footswitch has been negatively affected by the component shortages affecting so many industries around the world. We have to redesign it using alternative components but still delivering the same controls. Unfortunately, the production date is still uncertain.

Q: When will PaAS be available? 
A: The PaAs has been negatively affected by the component shortages affecting so many industries around the world. We have to redesign it using alternative components but still delivering the same high-quality sound. We are targeting availability in late 2023.

PLEASE NOTE: all details and dates are subject to change without notice.
