I'm trying to use KMA now, portable copy of PA 50:) but the interface differs too much from Yamaha/Roland so I need time to study it well.

I have a good friend who still uses his PA80 on every job. I actually miss the 2 separate inputs with effects. It was great for singing guitar-playing keyboardists.

I have the KMA and like it a lot for it's sounds, styles, and portability. I too have not gotten my head around the OS properly.

I have the Pa50sd. The interface does take a bit of getting used to. Are you all using internal styles or third party ones.

I currently use a Korg PA3X and will soon receive a PA600. A Korg arranger keyboard is hard to beat. I find one of the handiest features is the "touch screen". Korg arrangers are very easy to get around on and sound great. Lots of realistic sounds and spot on rhythm patterns.

Even the lower end keyboards sound good.

I've been using KORG arrangers ever since the FIRST one the SAS20 personal arranger around 1983, and before that most of my Synths were KORG also....and almost everyone since then up to the Pa3x....yes, I drifted with other Brands thru the years but always returned to KORG.

Korg should create tutorials for lower end keyboards not just top of the Range. The downloads section on Korg Forums hasn't be updated for ages for The pa50/80 when most of the will work with the KMA.

As often as Donny has changed arranger allegiance, I doubt a tattoo is a good idea!
