2 styles at once? Reminding me to the Roland VA-series I used to play Latin Rock with Dangdut. Good, now we can have this function again after gone for how many years. Keroncong and Cha2 may be interesting. Thank you for showing to us before we get one.
So many options with 2 players… like selecting few tracks from both styles to create a new style… or just using a style and a song, you could have them run at the same time and mute all song tracks while using the score and chords in the score track to play a song you don’t know from your head .. On top of that, you can use the 16 pads to trigger audio effects and even loops, i talked to the Belgium korg product manager and he said that korg will be adding more tools to synchronize audio and midi.. The interface is allmost everything an arranger players dreamed about.. it adds to the freedom and musicallity
Hi Leigh, thanks for your very in depth tutorials and information on the Pa5x. I have a Pa4x and love it, it’s such a great all round keyboard. I use it extensively for backing shows with singers using midi files and mp3’s. As well as using midi files on their own, I use them to create a hybrid band by muting the parts to be played live, and send a click to the live musicians via output 1. With mp3’s this has not been possible as I can’t find a way to assign seq 2 with the click on it to output 1 or 2. My question is, can the pa5x now do this?
Hello, when 2 styles and pads are playing together and when you press the ending, does that end both the styles or just one? I saw that the second style was still Playing after the ending. Could you confirm please. Thanks.
Great Explanation , my question is Can one of the players be used to play an audio file wave or Mp3 as a backing groove sample in sync with the style tempo ?
Hello, great videos, very informative :-) I have a couple of questions on the pa5x that the internet is not answering! I have a Genos and are familiar with what is known as 'single fingered' chords or 'easy' on my Roland ie to play a C major, I press C I assume this function is still available, seems to be? Also, I love the multipads on the Genos, are there a similar amount of assignable options on the Korg? Thanks! :-)
Nice video! Please let me know how many of user sound slot 5x have. I have read Pa5X specs on website say that it have 768 user sound slot and 384 drumkit slot like the Pa4X. Does this true? Thank you and so sorry for my bad english!
Please, Can you make a video about all Settings/ Menu pages? We want to know about all functions available Like Midi settings Style Elements lock Velocity curve Sustain/ Expression pedal calibration .... Etc.... PA5x PDF manual is not available until now.
Thank you for your video ! I wonder.. how can i save to songbook ”two engine” song entry ? I tried save, but only player 1 saved, not player 2. The instrument is new for me, but i dont find answer for that in manuals. Sorry my english 😊. Matti
…so the intros and endings have chord changes built into the style. The chords would definitely conflict with each other. How does the PA5x handle this?
Without even reading the manual of this machine and by following logic, I don't think it's possible because rhythmically speaking it would be a MESS! And I think they both activate the same time signature by default
Is it worth exchanging my 4 for a 5. Are the sounds and styles much improved to quantify my outlay. The two style engines alone isn’t worth it for me. Thanks
I’ve owned a Korg pa4x for years, use it at my gigs. It looks like Korg took away the ec5 foot switch option???? I sure hope not! I use the ec5 to control the drums and fills in real time at ALL my gigs! Is there another option for control of stops, start, fills, a b c d sections with a foot switch of any kind? Man, I sure hope so, or I can’t buy this amazing new PA5!
@@LeighWilbraham thanks for the response…how are we suppose to control the different sections of each style in real time if both hands are always on the keyboard?
No it didn’t you need your hearing checked - look at the tempo bars - both perfectly in sync. If you don't know what you're talking about - best say nothing and not make yourself look like an idiot.
Can you load the two styles from different Sets or KSTs in Pa5x's case? what would be amazing is if the keyboard load the styles from two different Sets.
Very good demonstration. The Pa5x seems, and sounds very good. Looks like, i’m going to buy it. Thank you! 👍🏻

I can think of one song off the top of my head that this would really work well on, 'On Green Dolphin Street', switching from jazz to Bossa and back.
Very well done thank u very much from usa
Very useful information..hope very soon to see this keyboard in our church

Mind blowing
Thank you man
i think you can use Tempo lock button to sync style 1 & two directly.

I have got play 1 song in 4/4 ballad, and change to 3/4 ballad on Refrain...
It's a nice song.

yes you can
Please, Can you make a video about all Settings/ Menu pages? We want to know about all functions available
Like Midi settings
Style Elements lock
Velocity curve
Sustain/ Expression pedal calibration .... Etc....

No sorry
@@LeighWilbraham No promlem.

Hi matti - sorry but I can’t help as I don’t have the 5x any longer I got too frustrated with it.
Thank you for your answer !
…so the intros and endings have chord changes built into the style. The chords would definitely conflict with each other. How does the PA5x handle this?
It uses the dominant - first choice style ending
How does it handle a style in 3/4 layered with one in 4/4? Could be very interesting!
Without even reading the manual of this machine and by following logic, I don't think it's possible because rhythmically speaking it would be a MESS! And I think they both activate the same time signature by default
I don't think a 3/4 would work with a 4/4, but you SHOULD be able to use a 2/4 and 4/4, or a 3/4 and 6/8 together.
Can you change the lead instruments of each style?
yes you can.
Is it worth exchanging my 4 for a 5. Are the sounds and styles much improved to quantify my outlay. The two style engines alone isn’t worth it for me. Thanks
Hi Keith - It's an instrument you have to play and see for yourself.

This will of course be on the G2
Hope not it’s utterly useless
So after making a video demonstrating and raving about the feature, now it's utterly useless?@@LeighWilbraham
@@prby78 yup. It’s a silly design and has no musical purpose

🎵🎵🎵👍
Good demo ,but buying only one ..Genos or 5x
Great tutorial but Im even more confused now
Your keyboard played 1/2 step out of tune throughout your video. Maybe you had a transpose switch engaged the whole time ?
No it didn’t you need your hearing checked - look at the tempo bars - both perfectly in sync.
If you don't know what you're talking about - best say nothing and not make yourself look like an idiot.

It’s a gimmick
What does that mean?
@@anamraficorp.7343 it’s a useless feature that most won’t use.
