In some cases with two styles playing and synchronised, with Pads + Upper 1,2,3 and Lower active when using ENSEMBLE feature you get note robbing with in the ENSEMBLE Chords (Right Hand)...

To allow the ENSEMBLE to function correctly muting some parts in Styles or Pads seems to allow ENSEMBLE to recover from this note robbing issue which is not ideal.

I have told this 100 times!
There is no meaning of having 2 separate players like it is now.

THIS IS NOT OK for 5,000 euro Keyboard from a huge Company like KORG!

Please solve this, In the list in Korg.com for the PA5X it says High end premium Quality and Elegant Design!

Headphones and external speakers, switching sound between

Post by johnsculp »

Is it possible to leave the headphones plugged in to the jack socket but be able to switch sound from headphones to speakers without unplugging the head phones? It is some thing I often want to do, play quietly via headphones but then switch temporarily to hear via loud speakers, so on my Yamaha digital you can do this by pressing two buttons together so the sound output switches between headphones output over to loudspeakers output without having to unplug the headphones.

Is this possible on the Pa5x? Could it be? Maybe there is a solution already on the Pa5x but I have not come across it.

Yep I am doing that way at the moment. Not sure if it can be altered...but I can confirm the audio out and headphones are both working.

Display the title of the selected song somewhere on the screen.

Displaying just the style name is not sufficient since a single style can be used for multiple songs. After selecting a song from the songbook, you don’t currently see the song name.[/list]

Load audio files to the matrix, not just pads.

Allow a slight quantization when RECORDING chord sequences ... currently when recording a chord sequence, it has to be EXACTLY on time, otherwise it displays the silly "NC" ...

When you load second style from SongBook during playing first style from SongBook , the second is loaded to Player 1 consecutively.
Idea. That second style should be loaded to the free (unused) Player. Exactly the same manner how it works with SMF files in korg pa4x

Agreed. There should be an option to adjust the LED brightness of the entire keyboard, similar to what is available for the LCD. Need not be 10% to 100%, but there have to be some steps.

Search option should include not only title but an artist column as data to be found.
