Anyone have one of these? I am interested as I mainly do German music, but the PA800 is more my speed and it is not offered in this version. Any one know if there is a "musikant" package for the 800?

Just found out there is a USB Musikant stick available from Korg in Germany for 166- 178 euros. For PA800 and PA2x. So that takes care of my question. The Musikant version of the PA500 looks good sold in black in stead of blue...

Sparky the Black PA500 does look good...

I asked Korg if the usb stick for the pa800/pa2x would work with the pa500 and they said no. Can any pa800 styles be converted for the pa500? I understand they are trying to sell the full keyboard version but why not sell the stick for the US/UK market?

Hi Sparky,

May I ask what you do when you say you do German music? I also specialize in German, wearing the Leiderhosen and playing and singing in German.

If you want to trade notes? Though playing German music is pretty straight-forward.

You can use all the PA800 and PA2x styles on the PA500 without converting.

Here's what they said_

Thank you for your e-Mail.

The USB MUSIKANT Stick only works with a Pa800 and Pa2Xpro.




With kind regards
