i guess beauty will always be in the eyes or in this case the ears of the beholder. I posted this demo here because i thought it sounded as fresh and as funky as anything i have heard from any other arranger including the Audya. Incidentally on the korg forum there are a few people who own the PA2X who are lusting after this distorted guitar sound which is a stock performance sound on the PA1X http://www.youtube.com/user/jimlefreak#p/u/13/n9o6uA9ejJ0

I have to smile a little when i hear comments about this 'old Workhorse' sounding dated. I respect the comments never the less. Its just a keyboard but a particularly great one. Each to their own but there is something ballsy and authentic about the sound of the Pa1X that i have not found elsewhere.

Make great music folks. :-)

Can't disagree with you there, spalding. I'm the proud owner of a Pa1XPro myself. It's a great board.
