"Challenging economic situation" is putting it lightly! Smaller manufacturers are all facing huge headwinds in their attempts to remain solvent in this world economy. let's hope some clarity presents itself sooner rather than later. [-o< Indeed, I hope Korg learns quickly from past mistakes and ...

5 months over from NAAM show, and still the update 1.4.0 has not shown up 😬 I am getting used to this hide and seek game. 😅 As it's written in the post above: "As you know, the upcoming update is going tob e a pretty big one with a whole lot of new functions and improvements (as it was shown at NAMM ...

Not possible (yet). A workaround is to create 2 entries with about the same name, but with an addition, for instance: songname-p1, songname-p2. So you can load them quickly. Not ideal, but it can be done. I think Adam did a tutorial on this on his Scan channel on YT. A highly recommended channel by ...

There’s so much available and with some tweaking you can get very nice results. And it’s fun to do! I agree with your observation. If one has enough free time then there are many free and factory styles and sounds that can be tweaked for customization. However if someone is using the styles for gig ...

All my performances are with Korg factory styles and sounds. Edited of course to my liking and stored in the SongBook, the best PA5X feature. I hope some of you will get inspired. The settings are explained for each performance, just tick More…. https://youtube.com/@fransv2010?si=LgMzIaIlWRTAU8kJ I ...

Hi Keith, That is the only non-factory sound I have used on my entire YT channel. :-) Funny that you picked that one out. It’s used in my Apache performance. It’s such a nice Shadows sound! I think it was originally created/sampled & shared by Pete Karmathanever? Still one of the best guitar sounds f ...

Thanks for sharing. I’ve listened to the sound demos and a lot of the styles are really good. I’m not a fan of song specific styles, but there are a lot of good universal styles in this collection as well. When I get bored with the factory styles… maybe… ;-) On my YT channel I only use factory styles ...

Hi Rocco, Actually, every Factory Style comes with 4 Keyboard Sets. Not all of them are in the Keyboard Set library. The Korg programmers edited them with sounds, FX, volumes etcetera to fit the Style. You can easily save a KS that you like to the user area, so you can use it with other styles. It’s ...

March 23, still very sluggish (I use an Ipad).
Btw the Korg US website is also sluggish from time to time.

Edit: it’s not my Ipad or internet connection, because other websites work fine.

Note: you don’t have to edit a style for this.
In the songbook you can use a style over and over again with different KS’s, FX, tempo, pads, tracks muted/unmuted etcetera.
The SongBook is the powerhouse of your PA5X.
It’s the core of my workflow.

It’s quite an easy thing to do in the SongBook. You just have to resave the SongBook entry. You can manage which KS you want to save in which of the 4 KS slots of the SongBook entry. See the manual or some YT demos. I think Qui Robinez covered this in one of his excellent tutorials on YouTube. And A ...

Veeeeery sloooooooow.

From Ipad, it takes more than 30 seconds or much longer before the forum OS reacts. It can even be several minutes.
My internet connection works fine with other programs. The forums are the exception here.
Let’s hope it can be fixed soon.

Yes, this can be done. In fact you can migrate a .set to a .kst quite easily from the keyboard. There’s a special conversion tool in the PA5X (under File button/menu). See the manual or some YT demos. For instance: https://youtu.be/lDzo3kdaotU?si=uky92a0bdedA9mYi Don’t forget to turn off the ins ...

Thanks Pete, I really appreciate your kind words. :D Maybe PA5X has some styles and sounds that are not available for PA4X, but I’m not sure. PA4X of course is a very, very nice and professional instrument as well, so if you’re happy with it stick to it. I don’t want to start a “which instrument is b ...
