Nice find well I know who won this battle...

Thanks Telmo, nice and interesting find.
Wondering about if both Y and K is played as it is right out off the box?

Who?


Here’s my simple take, both are great arrangers there’s a seat for every butt. Some days I like playing my Korg other days my Yamaha. It’s like that with food too, sometimes I want a steak other days a nice pasta dish is more to my liking.

So think we all agree this time around it not about sounds and styles but ALL ABOUT THE FEATURES?

Two very nice Keyboards...I did not see where anyone stated who won or Did I miss something? Nice Video from AC Hamilton Music. I'm with Steven...What ever shoe fits... Very Simple Buy the one You like. Harold

And for Steve, some days he has BOTH ...

You do ?

Only recently I remarked in another thread as regards these two arrangers how virtually all KORGS sound crappy out of the box and this is definitely as good as out the box and still imho it sounds better than the Yamaha. Yamaha again highlighting old stuff like the Shadows guitar sound ( already there in Tyros 2 etc.)
I will add some demo one day highlighting how the PA1000 can sound after decent tweaking.

A much more interesting point is this:
Apart from the gigging artists here like Don,Donny, Deane, Dave, etc. who set great store by only using one keyboard and preferably a lightweight one , any home user would imho benefit much more by a combination like the following two, which would be cheaper than one PA4X or one Genos, even without monitors.

Yamaha SX900 + Korg PA700
Korg PA1000 + Yamaha SX700

both sets would cost approx. 2900 euros in Europe, I would say :take your pick !!!

Listening under good quality headphones...The Yamaha blows the Korg away...as it should being a newer board.
