You can also make sure the STS Mode button is OFF. This doesn't change any Upper or Lower sounds or volumes or effects when you load a different style.

Hello Sam and pipuzzo ! Hope you guys are well. I am re-birthing this thread due to now having a mirriad of issues with style recording in Cubase. I upgraded to Cubase 9 Pro from 8. And Cubase 9 hates my PA3X, and my PA3X hates Cubase 9 ! The MIDI language is not common between these two for some ...

Sounds fantastic.
I use my 3X for something similar. I rig it up in A. Live using mostly Spire from Reveal sound as the main synth and the possibilities are endless.

Apart from the LED button lights issue on the pa2x and the battery recall on the pa3x, i am not aware of any general issues on the PA series of Korg.
I know many people who gig and put their Korgs through hell and back every weekends and still have no issues.

I have used the BKM7 with my MIDI accordion for a long time. It is awesome, for a accordion player and others such as for a guitar player... Great unit. However. I don't see how it would benefit hooking it up to the pa3x. Sound for sound comparo is just not there. The PA3X sounds are worlds away ...

Thanks. Just went and grabbed all the bits.
Just need to solder everything now.

Easily done. I'm good with solder etc... But what are those end plugs called?
Simple 6 pin MIDI plugs ?

Hi All. Is there an equivalent cable for this that can me purchased and/or modded a little bit to suit ??? Or even buy a cable and suitable plug ends and make the cable my self? I have an EC5, but I have no cable. And to get cable from Europe to Australia is more $$$ than it is to buy the whole pack ...

Very easy. As Reuben said, keys on the side first, then flip the keyboard upside down. Undo screws, underneath then the back. Slowly turn the keyboard the right way up again, and if all correct screws were undone, the top should open easy, leaving only the keybed screwed to the bottom. I have photos ...

I'll believe it when it's sitting in my studio beside the pa3x.

HI mate. It is relatively easy to open the board up and tighten stuff. Opened mine recently. The most important part is remembering where each screw goes, as there is a few different sizes. I believe Kronos had loose keys issues... And they become loose. Tightened from beneath they come good again ...

Hi Dimitris I have changed it with an SSD 120GB Thought about doing this to mine but couldn't figure what the benefit would be. Did you notice any difference? Cheers Pete :D Massive difference Pete. The drive it comes with is a slow 5200rpm economy unit. SSD uses less power and is 50x faster. The ...

You can, but highly not recommended. Considering the attitude of most baggage handlers, good luck with your pa3x arriving in one pieces, on the other end with this.
As previous post. You need a hard case for a flight.

I can make my PA3X do exactly the same, when I load a set file from a previous arranger. Sometimes, even from my previous PA2X. And a few of these sets are 100% factory sets, no samples or custom sounds. If I get a moment I will record a video, and show you. Note: This may or may not be your problem ...

I believe this would have something to do with Midi-Thru connection on the Kronos.
