Yes... CS saved with the Songbook, and the ability to edit it easily in the Sequencer (to quantize it or do a little editing if you made one flub) would be handy.

The 'Third Hand'... Maybe someone needs a snappy name for the feature? Chord Sequencer really doesn't describe what it does. There's no 'sequencing' in the sense that anyone currently uses the term. It's a LIVE third hand..!

Quote from spec:

Compatibility for Sound Data

"i-Series": Styles only

"Pa series": Style, Performance, Sound, PCM, Song, SongBook and Pad

Pa3x styles etc ?

Looking better all the time

Looking forward to it very soon..gonna put it thru it's paces going into my very busy Holiday Gig season soon..just picked up a SanDisk 32G Cruzer "FIT" shortie USB for it also..

Any dealers get a Pa600 in to try yet?

I picked up the 16gb version of the exact same drive a couple of months ago & am very happy with it, although because it's so small, sometimes I'm afraid I might misplace or loose it.

Just now I came across a couple of dealer in-stock listings for the Pa600 in the U.K.

First one was on eBay UK showing 2 available and 2 sold and in stock for next day delivery. When I checked this company's own webpage it shows 3 in-stock. Check http://www.instruments2go.co.uk/Korg-PA600-Arranger-Keyboard-p-5104.html

I'm hoping this is real and heralds the delivery of the Pa600 to other dealers too!!

A local dealer told me November - we will see.

I hope they are shipping exp-2 pedals with the 600's- nobody's got any. some websites say it is discontinued. Is there a new volume/expression pedal other than the current stereo $149 one? I did see one on ebay, and another for $99 that seems to be a Yamaha FC7 with the Korg name on it...

Since I posted their stock for the Pa600 has gone from 3 to 1.

EDIT: A second different UK retailer is also indicating 3 in stock.

Just ordered the PA600QT...
I have to wait January 2013 to get it....
After having added Ketron, Yamaha and Roland styles to vArranger.
I have to try a Korg arranger
