I bought the PA 800 as a replacement for the Tyros 2 - I know I am going to get slammed by Yamaha lovers everywhere - the PA800 was agraet deal and sounded really nice - great sounds and styles, easy to use and play - menu easy to use (Easy mode/Expert mode) and just overall a nice board - apart from ridiculous blue colour!
Really happy with it - just need to get a non cryptic list for the songbook feature!
The Styles on the Korg are excellent - all nicely done and well balanced - better than MS at the moment, but as I keep on saying with LS4 coming soon on the MS and the ability to create Giga styles the MS will soon be as good if not better - we will have to wait and see!
If anyone can help on the songbook feature -please let me know.
Regards
Mark!

you got the korg pa800 as well as the MS Jonesyboy ? How do the two compare next to each other in terms of styles, sounds ease of use ? If you have any giga sounds please use them in the styles on your MS and tell us if they really sound any better than the proprietory sounds in the korg as a complete mix ? Do all that you can to balance the styles and EQ them appropriately.All this should already have been done on the Korg.
I believe this is key to establishing the reality of the benefit of having an "open system" based arranger keyboard
