Crossing the Arranger name off a PA3x doesn’t make it into a Kronos.
No one said it did, Bill.

A Kronos uses completely different voice architecture.
However, the Korg PA3XPro has editing on par with other Korg workstations...n'est-ce pas?
It has
full arranger functions...with me so far?
Does it lack some workstation features? Maybe, depending on which workstation you compare it to, but
it still can be used as one.
Does a workstation lack features the PA3XPro has? Yep.
No auto-accompaniment for starters.
You see Bill, my analogy was simply to point out that arrangers (especially in the PA3Xpro's case) are probably
closer to workstations, than one likes to believe.
I don't have a problem with that, and apparently, neither does Spalding or many more on this forum.
