SHAME ON YOU GERMANY KORG TEAM!!!

Post by mile »

On my Pa3X 76 musikant, when I press RECORD in Style mode on preset styles, appear "The current style is not editable"!? Why!?!?!? :cry:
When I buy the Korg Pa3X 76 Musikant, I buy the Factory styles also, and really don't understand the "copyright-protection" on all factory styles (also styles from International version and Pa2XPro!?).
I wanna use factory styles like I use them on the previous keyboard (Pa2XPro, Pa800, i30...) that mine to edit him, save edited in favorite/user bank, use the section of it.....

It is the same as if you bought a car and factory installed some "copyright-protection" on it, that you can not drive faster than 120km/h, seats go down only half way, and the hood can't open??
It's nonsense!!

Korg.de is not distributed her styles for pa2x for free, but you could still edit and distribute them to other Korg users around the world.
Now, with PA3X, maybe they have obtained a copy protection feature from new OS writers.
Mile, can you save a factory style of your PA3X76 Musikant? And this style can be loaded into a "standard" PA3X or not?

Yes
thats correct. Korg protected all factory-styles in the
Musikant-Version. All other banks are editable.
But you can load all styles from the international-version into the
pa3 musikant and than you can edit this styles completely.
You also can load the pa500 musikant-styles into the PA3xM.

I'm sure Musikant users are not so happy about this. It makes no sense at all from customer's perspective. The keyboard is loaded with features that you CANNOT use to edit the styles!!!? The fact that you CAN edit other banks is not relevant, because if those users were interested in "Other Banks" or " international styles", they would've bought just that. I mean who would buy the Musikant version really? I'd say only an Austrian/German musician, right? If they can't edit those styles to suit their needs, then what good other banks are going to do for them? Trying to edit regular styles in other banks would totally defeat the purpose of buying the Musikant version in my opinion.

But where I can find and download factory styles from Pa3X international, to import in to the Pa3X musikant and edit them!?!?

Hi mile
ask a PA3xi-User here in the forum.
When he will send a style.set, you have them very quick.
