SeriesKorg Pa

The Korg Pa3X is a 61 key professional keyboard workstation and arranger that I used to complete many full songs/projects right on the keyboard without even having to work in my DAW. There is one thing that you can guarantee that you will get while working with the Korg Pa3X and that is a sound that you will never forget. The sound engine is great from the drums to the pianos, the Pa3X has it all. UTILIZATION This keyboard can be purchased in the 76 key version which I have not used, but the keys on the 61 key version are very good with velocity and after touch. The Pa3X 76 key version has a motorized tilted display screen that is one feature that the 61 key versions does not have. Both versions do have the well known chord sequencer function; this function allowed me to record my chord progressions quickly and on the go. OVERALL OPINION They keys are non weighted and that is a disadvantage of the 61 key version but it is pretty light and easy to gig with. It does allow sampling and has some really good effects built into it. I would prefer the 76 key version though because of the keys and the motorized display screen. The price difference between the 61 and the 76 version is not too bad and it is well worth the extra money to get those features. The 61 key version is built very well though with all of the sliders and buttons being made out of good materials. It has held up great for more over the time that I have used it for. I do not regret my decision at all.

The Korg Pa2x keyboard arranger is one of my favorite ones to this day. I have been using it for years and it never gets old and I never get tired of using any of the sounds or patches that come with it. You can control all parameters of any sound that you want pretty easy without having any knowledge of sound design like me you can just start messing with stuff until you get what you like. UTILIZATION I have a digital manual that I downloaded from the website from korg. It is easy to navigate through and understand. But most everything with this keyboard is easy to understand once you get the hang of the menus and how to navigate through the sounds and everything you will be on your way to creating great music in no time. OVERALL OPINION Sounds are great, the brass is my favorite its nice and thick and real sounding brass. You don’t need to do a lot of eq to it as you do with a lot of other boards. There are so many different sounds you will spends hours on hours and days on days just going through all of the sounds and seeing what you can do with them. I am very happy that I purchased this a few years ago, another neat thing is that the screen tilts up to the way you want it so no more hurting your neck looking down on board or moving around to get a good view of it, you can simply stay put or wherever you feel comfortable and move the screen to you. You can really compose a full song right on the board and even do your mixing there too if you want, even though I don’t mix on it because I like to take everything through pro tools because that Is what I am use to doing.
