Frankie,

Can you do a mini review of the Micro-Arranger?

I know several people who are interested.

It is exactly the Korg PA50SD, except minature and black.

Same sounds, same styles, same OS system.

Speakers are a tad bit tinny but what can you expect from that size.

the PA50SD is a great board for the price, now at a quarter of the size, it's the perfect back-up board, or second board for the additional Korg ish type sounds

Only issue I see is its using the 2002 stripped down LE Triton version of Korg's HI synthesis (Hyper Integrated synthesis system) sound engine as opposed to the latest Synthesis technology.

Hi Cass et al. I just purchased a Korg MicroArranger from our buddy Frank too, and it's already on it's way to me here in California.
Cass, I look forward to comparing notes with you and other Korg MicroArranger owners once we receive our units. smile

I purchased my Tyros 4 from Frank @ AudioWorks last year. Not only are Frank's prices terrific, but his friendly & attentive service is unsurpassed too. More importantly Frank's active participation & friendhsip here for so many years even BEFORE he became an arranger keyboard dealer show how dedicated and loyal he is to fellow synthzone members.

Initially, I primarily plan to utilize the MicroArranger for personal on the go entertainment fun and to take along on weekend getaways & for smaller casual parties. At a mere 9 lbs (including speakers) there'll be no excuse to leave home without it. I'll post a review soon after it arrives next week.

Scott cool

Hell,

Look Bill, even though the Korg has built in speakers, when played it can be hooked up to a set of external speakers, it does
help to have speakers connected, know what I mean. And hell it sounds good. Rock on Scott.

Happy New Year All
