Thanks a lot , Producer Edition has a lot of native & ambient DKs , Timur already confirmed that , and as I've described
contents that can be found there seem to be impossible for any developer to fit them in 500 Mb PCM container
(original resources were 10 Gb) , with no quality loss ... that's my main innovation there , that only a few customers
have remarked that , the development level was always high for granted !
There are many - many reasons there to discover and finally categorize this product as "cheap" ! :D

Offcourse there's gonna be some technical loss, when compressing 10Gb Down to 500 Mb. But that's just being narrow-headed. Nobody hear that when the music playes... However, I do love what you did with version 2 studio set drums - truly sounds amazing and more snappy and alive. "You got game player"! :!:

I might just make an order on this full set, also might I add - I'm loving the Steinway (DEMO) you gracially shared some time ago.. Thanks alot! Can't wait to get my hands on the "Whole body"! :P

I'll PM you Antony, if that's okay!??

Yeah Asena, we both been requesting live sounds with.. Drums and Bass is ESSENTIAL, That's the "Heart & Soul" in any music genre. Your experience must have been very funny, I'm sure you had a big smile on your face when hitting the pillow that night! ;)

Pa3XDK , there was no compression of 10 Gb , I made some very sophisticated ADSR tricks & sample modeling with natural
big duration samples like pianos to be heard equally with 20 time longer samples :lol: (that's the best I can tell) !
This technique is not necessary in Kronos development products !
If 2015 flagship PaSeries arranger would use streaming from disk technology then a rave international pack will be created !

If you liked free Steinway then you'd love shareware one and it's only one of three GRD Pianos contained there !
But if your basic needs in your Pa3X are Drums then the wiser and very cheaper option might be only Bass & Drums pack
'cause note that you can't have both Producer edition & Studio Bass & Drums in Pa3X !

Antony; Oh no, I also am very interested in the rest of the sample Collection, especially GUITARS. As I think those are lacking in factory sounds to. And additionally the drums set up to Work with superior drummer, and addictive drums. Since I already own both of those.

So this would make my order "all or nothing", but is a shame though that the studio drums can not be fitted together with producer edition 14 as well. would have been "a sweet side-order". However, think I'd go with the producer edition. ;)

well , I have to clarify that Producer Edition includes Bass & ambient Kit of Studio Drums but not the Jazz Kit ,
but also contains Guitars for styles ... so in that case you can feel happy :lol:

For years now I've tried to avoid purchasing a PA3x, now PA4x, by routing my PA500 MIDI outs to a pretty comprehensive DAW. It works well but, it's a lot of work.

Watching and listening to the YouTube videos has sold me. Did I not own an SY77 and PK6, I would not believe these high quality samples could be compressed this effectively without degradation. Being of an age that I was impressed with the memory of the first Commodore 64 I purchased, I appreciate MEMORY!

It takes a TRUE AUDIO ENGINEER to accomplish what has been done with the "Platinum 512" Update. I guess I'm going to fold and purchase a PA4x as soon as the budget permits.

You really should get a commission from Korg!
