That little rig sounds very impressive...it does sound quite a bit like the old PA-50, but the styles are definitely improved.
It's a little weak in the guitar sounds (the trumpet is very good), but overall, a formidable sound from such a cheap arranger.
It's a pity about the small keys, although one can get used to them eventually (making going back to a standard size a bit of a problem) so if I was to use one, I'd probably midi it to a Yamaha P-95, or even an NP-31.
Nice playing as well, Donny...it's nice to hear someone using styles, which is my preferred method of using an arranger.
Best of luck with your new toy.
Ian
PS...what did you use for recording...it sounds great?

Montunoman, there are other Korg instruments that use the same keyboard, at varying lengths...your local music store might possibly have one of these in stock for you to try.
The microKORG XL SYNTHESIZER/VOCODER, the microSTATION, the microKEY USB POWERED KEYBOARD should give you a rough idea of how you will get along with the smaller keys.
I have rather large hands and these sized keys took a bit of adjustment for me, but they were manageable. The dynamics, especially on piano voices, aren't the best for more subtle expression while playing.
