On my Pa3X 76 musikant, when I press RECORD in Style mode on preset styles, appear "The current style is not editable"!? Why!?!?!?
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!!

Copyright ....

are you sure about that? you mean you can't export the style in midi format either? It sounds very strange...

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?

When i press RECORD on any factory style, "This current style is not editable" message is show up, and in any USER (favorite) style in record mode, in the "copy from style" section, if the any factory style is the source, "Selected style can't be copied" message show up!?!
Werry disapointning from korg germany team!!
For what I need factory styles, if it's not editable, or not eable to copy any section of it, even replace them on favorite/user bank!?!?!

brrrrr....
Bad news from Korg Germany.. DRM in arranger world, oh my god! It seems to me a silly war: how much this will cost to Korg and how much they will earn with this move? Million of euros? Bah...

you may have factory data protection activated. you can de-activate this . Don't remember where is it and because i'm on holydays i can't see on my pa3x but i think it's somewhere on media menu.

Yes, i know for that protect, but it's not solve the problem.
Germany Korg Team protected all factory styles on Pa3X - Musikant and it's not editable at all.

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.

This circumstances are also in germany a big issue.
Some users are frustated.

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.

Hi @ALL-PA3-Musikant-Users

when you want to have the PA3 i-Styles for editing in your
musikant-version, you have to register on the german
korg-software-center. (SWC)
There you will find an official downlaod of all PA3-i-Styles for
editing in your musikant.

If the registration (from out of germny) is not possible, please
contact the german support for help. support@korg.de

Looks like you found your fix. That is a good thing.
