The mixing of two styles facility, will open a new era of music playing and creativity. Your demonstration is highly professional Tony; for a very sophisticated keyboard arranger. Please keep up with the very good work, greetings from Egypt.
I say this: if musician plays good it be sound good on any keaboard, especially higher end. Encourage you to teach children while they young to play it be easier when get older to handle complicated arrangers or workstations
This is a brilliant demo of the PA5X. The best so far. I was disappointed with the Official launch, but this demo shows the potential of the keyboard. Well done Tony.
❤🎉Thank you for the nice, concise and useful explanation of the pa5x masterpiece, which is an ocean of unknowns for people like me who have bought this wonderful device for a few months now. If you can continue to provide series of explanations for this device in your channel, surely many people like me will benefit from it. Best wishes ❤️ Jakob from Austria 🇦🇹
Thank you for a very nice video. I am Japanese. KORG is a Japanese musical instrument maker, but since arranger keyboards are not popular in Japan, there are few opportunities to see them at musical instrument stores, and only Pa1000 is sold. Unfortunately, PA5x is not available domestically. I was surprised at the high-class appearance, high sound quality, and high functionality of the KRONOS2 and Pa series. Currently, the yen is depreciating, and it is difficult for individuals to import high-priced products from overseas (though they are Japanese products, they are not distributed). I envy those who live in the UK and enjoy PA5x.
@@abohsukampret YAMAHA Genos has not been released in Japan. KORG is an affiliated company invested by YAMAHA. YAMAHA is focusing on the music classroom business, and its main business is Electone. If the arranger keyboard becomes widespread, it will not be possible to do the music classroom business that has greatly grown YAMAHA. Because of that, we can predict that it will not be released in Japan in the future. Genos is only on display at the corporate museum on the premises of Yamaha headquarters. Arranger keyboards are little known to Japanese musicians and music lovers.
@@hiro_taka it’s interesting you mention Electone because that is only available in Japan. But on the surface it looks like the Electone and Genos/PSR series have common technology under the hood. With Korg, as far as I know the PA series is developed in Italy so it is kind of a European product.
@@mudi2000a not really electone is also well known in other countries like the Philippines. I used to play on the electone before I got my korg M1 paired with a Roland MC50 sequencer. Thank you!
@@DynamteKid316 yes well in the 80s it was also sold in Europe. I had ( actually still have, still works after 40 years) an entry level model back then.
Tony always brings it. Other reviews, except Korg's own stuff, I've seen today have been poor so far, focusing more on getting stuff out soon rather than uploading something good. The first review to really demonstrate the excellent sound of different instruments thoroughly.
Those round robin drums really sealed the deal for me. I was programing drums an realized how annoying it was having the snare sound exactly the same for ever hit even when I modified it and layered each hit with a different snare. I knew i had to grab this keyboard
Another brilliant demo. Thanks very much for showcasing this machine. Currently own a brilliant Genos (which I bought from Bonners). I do like the look and sound of this korg. Would I swap....NO....would I add to.....definitely. Call it greed 🙂
Takes me back working at Dawsons Music decades ago. When doing a keyboard demo, you need to learn loads of short bits of music you can use for all the different sounds. Once mastered I could sell to virtually every customer that was interested. Happy days.
Great demo. The only drawback(if you can call it that) is that there are so many more mechanical buttons & sliders that there is more chances of them giving way over a period of time with dust & humidity!
@@Ahmad-vw5uw Well, this is the arranger keyboards are all about, is taking them out to live performance in dusty gigs. They're not meant to be indoors lol. Manufacturers should've always considered that.
You don't think manufacturers consider that. I have 3 Korg keyboards from the mid 80s that are still functioning like new and they were definitely gigged hard!
@@hienvu1714 Yes, the manufacturers do consider this but obviously, the conditions are not the same everywhere. In the 80s I had a Korg M1 & those buttons gave me a lot of trouble. I finally had to get rid of it. No matter how well the buttons/sliders are built they are most prone to dust.
This is the best Performance on You Tube. You show in a very professional Way this fantastic Keyboard. Perfect filmed, very good explained and a good Sound Quality. Great Job. If I live in Great Britain I will buy one in your Shop. But I am from Germany and will buy it from a Local Dealer - Sorry :-) You are also one of the Best Performer! Very sympatic (sorry for my bad English)
Thanks so much Tony for this excellent demonstration. The sounds and features are outstanding. My only problem is with the keyboard stand . . . it is not stable. Perhaps another stand would solve that problem. Best wishes, Jerry.
Has KORG PA5X in the search function also to find chords instead sound, styles etc, in YAMAHA TYROS and GENOS it has always a list of chords examples in the search function. thank you 👌for example: how you can easily take a chord F#7(b5)
Im still deciding should i go for PA5x or Yamaha Genos... but i think at the end it will be Korg. Main reason is that Yamaha lacks sampler and for me having to fiddle with files and to transfer them using USB is not quite elegant solution.
I like it. Too pricey for me, but I like it. The feature of blending/mixing two styles was actually done 20 years ago by Roland on their VA-76 using the Style Orchestrator and Style Morphing functions which let you seamlessly blend one style into another. What's old is new again.
Big Korg fan, starting with the 800, 3X and current 4X. Always have been disappointed with the acoustic pianos, but this model sounds promising in that department.
Looks great big Touch screen with lifting options 👍 hopefuly not a dull LCD green but sound voices seem to be very articulate we can hear 👌👏👏from but only Just 600 styles that's weird may be few Indian styles on it , we need great Indian professional atleast 50 to 75 styles to buy this for the price we pay ☹️🇨🇦
BR how many Indian styles and voices are in this PA5X also combined two styles to play alone which is superb 👍👍but I think some styles may not play with right tempo which may sound very odd🤔 also I saw one WARNING from other video with screen shots this particular model has so much bugs and firmware updates with error which gives freeze is that true have you faced any ?? Also I have a experience with Korg customer service which is one of the world worst care service 😯 Let me know Thank you
enjoyed your detailed demo on this new arranger model very much. Always a pleasure watching and listening. But if I get one I'll never get anything else done because it's way too much fun...and that would be a problem:). What does the PA5x look like in the dark? Take care...
I've expected more polyphony.... 256. but looks great. I have nautilus 88 just because pa5x was not released. So should I change it? I need the same quality of sounds as in Nautilus...
24 (48 mono) stereo oscillators. No keyboard ever has that many oscillators for a single sound. So given that, I think 160 is pretty decent. Plus they've programmed the patches to not eat polyphony so that's good.
KORG, why havent you released a vst with all the sounds of these keyboards? especially the oriental ones? We dont want to carry around a big ass keyboard.
THIS IS IT !!!!!🤩 I have ROLAND E-500 from 90' , hmmmm. I can't imagine how I can learn to play and use the capabilities of this equipment ? Maybe I save the money and buy this, but what next ? I will need the teacher anyway. And the money invested must be returned 🤑 Best regards
I have a Korg Pa 3X. I don’t have the manual book for how to save the whole data in the usb?…I will appreciate if you can teach me how to to do the saving!🙏. Thank you. Raffi Nazarian.
Nice demo. I'm really new to the keyboard industry. What is the difference between a synth and an arranger? I just got one of these Pa5X and I have no clue how to use it. I really want to make orchestra music with choral singing in it. I wonder if I can do that with this. Or is there something else I need.
I just happened to watch this video and your Legend 70's demo, back to back. They are of course very different animals in regards to their use cases and functionality, but I was struck by how, IMO, the instrument sound quality on the Legend was leagues better!
Nautilus is a temporary product designed to hold a market spot until Korg can finish working on their next-gen synth. It is sort of like the FA from Roland.
Terrific demonstration...thank you!! What is your opinion of the sound quality vs. the Yamaha DGX 67O? Is this one worth 5 - 6 times the cost of the Yamaha?
Most of the sounds of this synthesizer in this demo are really unimpressive. Electric guitars are bad, Organ sounds are horrible, brass sounds are bad, orchestral sounds are bad. Some good piano sounds and synth layer sounds but nothing more. At this price no thank you.
the Pa5x is like the time they came out with the Oasys I liked the Oasys pad setup more convenient under the screen better than the way over to the right pads
I own a Kronos 2 with 88 keys. I own a Fantom 7. I own an Integra 7 that I drive with an Arturia Keylab 61 MkII (as well as using that controller for my Arturia V Collection 9 and Cherry Audio’s Modular Synthsoftsynth) I don’t know whether to jump in now with buying the Korg Pa5 . . . Or wait and see if Korg comes out with a new flagship workstation that they announce at NAMM 2023 to replace the now-discontinued Kronos. I love my Kronos, but the 11 year old user interface is a nightmare compared to my Fantom 7. So, with a new Apple 14” iPad Pro coming out this fall, I can’t afford both the Pa5x and the hopefully new anticipated Kronos replacement. If you were me, would you dive in now, or wait 10 months for a possible Korg announcement? Geez, the Nautilous doesn’t even have aftertouch, it can’t be a standing workstation.
instead of buying and buying new stuff again and again....improve your playing style..i change kb only about every 8 to 10 years only. most improvements are way to small to deserve to costs. ofcourse shops will tetl you different, they need to sell !!
Thanks for this very good demo :-) Do you know if the PA5x can send the auto created accompagnement notes out on the midi out so that these can be recorded in a DAW? Best regards Thomas Heder
Hallo Herr Bonners Danke für das schöne Video. Eigentlich bin ich Yamaha Tyros 2 User aber da meine Yamaha nicht das macht was ich mir wünsche steht jetzt die neue Korg pa5x auf meinem Wunschzettel. Die Frage die ich habe, 88er Hammermechanik oder als 61er. Mein Set bestand bis jetzt aus doepfer pk88 und tyros 2. Die Anbindung mit der doepfer PK 88 an die Yamaha war nicht so dolle.Vielleicht will das Yamaha auch nicht. Beim leichten Druck auf die Tasten der doepfer hörte man schon einen Ton und das ist nicht richtig. Beim echten Klavier ist es ja so ,wenn Sie eine Taste leicht drücken dann legt sich das Hämmerchen an die Saite erzeugt aber kein Ton. Vielleicht geht das ja besser bei Korg. Danke noch mal für das Video 👍✌️
@@aadu0096 ruclips.net/video/TYxp9oW6Q_0/видео.html just compare your indian music with Balkans and tell who have more fuller tone and who use more function of keyboard (drums,perc,bass,efects...) and finally who is more skilled virtuoso :)
honestly i feel like most balkan musicians will stick to their pa4x keyboards, cause half a year in and i dont think i know a single person in serbia that has one, online or offline (some people may have them but basically most of us still have a pa4x or older models)
As a Genos professional user, there are, unsurprisingly many unanswered questions. Fr me, the genos is o/s sonically but the OS is as the norm with Yamaha, absolutely rubbish, unintuitive, overly complex and the panel button layout ill thought out for live use. Korg are usually far better in that area as seems here. Having invested many hundreds of hours into genos specific voicing, midi files, sing sets etc, I hope most would be transferable. I find the genos inspiring and demoralising in equal amounts and korg tend to get the performance and user interface better which for me is actually just as important because being honest they all sound amazing.
You are so right. Song writing changed for me when I bought a PA 1000, the styles and sequencer were so easy to use. But as you said, I would use the PA 1000 for song creation and my Yamaha Keyboards for lead or pianos sounds (Motif61 SPEX90). But that changed when I bought a Nautilus 61 & 76. So... If this Pa5x has the sounds and key bed of the Nautilus and an improved arranger capability... Then I think the King (Genos) might have some competition.
That arranger keyboard is one power house when it comes to features and quality. I can only dream of having one as the price is way out of my league. Nothing wrong with dreaming they say. Anyways I really like your reviews and in depth analysis of all products you demo.
I have a couple questions on the styles... Are all of them geared towards specific songs like Lovely Day, Billy Jean, Hey Jude, Get Lucky, etc. Or are there generic ones like 6/8 Blues, Bossa, Reggae, 4/4 Pop etc. that aren't obviously styled for specific songs, like they are generic backing tracks of whatever genre/style. Does the full keyboard work to auto-change the chords as you play along with the style or is it restricted for a couple notes in the bass? For example will it auto-change the chord if you use arpeggiated chords in the base with full chords in the treble? Not sure if I'm explaining that correctly to make sense.
I really enjoyed this excellent demo of an impressive keyboard but why, oh why, are you using a wobbly keyboard stand? All that jiggling about would drive me nuts!!!!!
Hey Korg Akai MPC 61 key has enetered the market n raised d bar ....Isn't it time for Korg to upgrade d Pa series to be able to do more professional studio grade work by incorporating a fully functional editable high quality audio recording section instead of mp3? Kronos has 16track audio which can be added to d Pa5x or Pa6x. If u scared adding fully functional audio cost may increase d cost of d workstation ...you can revive one of Korg previous audio workstation (Korg D 8 or 16, D 24 etc) exclusive audio mixer workstation with special sync functionality to be sold separately. Those who prefer could buy separately. That if Korg wants to b on top of this competition.
This is an arranger, not a workstation like the Nautilus or Kronos. And from the software pov, Nautilus is an upgrade to the Kronos. From the design and front panel control section, it is a downgrade.
I'm looking for a workstation that can emulate real instruments really well. This one sounds great. I'm only using it in a studio, so I have access to great sounding plugins, but I like the idea of having an all in one workstation. I already have some really nice synths, but I'm looking to be able to emulate pretty much every kind of real acoustic, electric, wind, string, brass, percussion, etc.. instrument on the planet. This one is up there in price, so if I did get one, it would more than likely be B Stock or used.
Why get a workstation if you are in a studio? VI's will serve you way better (in terms of sound and control) than a dedicated keyboard arranger or workstation. The purpose of hardware multi-timbral keyboards such as these are primarily focused on live performance rather than studio arrangements.
The mixing of two styles facility, will open a new era of music playing and creativity. Your demonstration is highly professional Tony; for a very sophisticated keyboard arranger. Please keep up with the very good work, greetings from Egypt.
I say this: if musician plays good it be sound good on any keaboard, especially higher end. Encourage you to teach children while they young to play it be easier when get older to handle complicated arrangers or workstations

Great work on the demo. Hope you get the business. I wish I had seen this last week. I bought a Roland. Nice, but this is an awesome arranger.
awesome. I have a PA1000 which I haven't fully exploited yet, but the PA5x looks like a major upgrade to the PA1000...
In a year or two, you may have a sucessor to your Pa1000.
Inspirational...many thanks Tony!

Yes

Fr me, the genos is o/s sonically but the OS is as the norm with Yamaha, absolutely rubbish, unintuitive, overly complex and the panel button layout ill thought out for live use. Korg are usually far better in that area as seems here. Having invested many hundreds of hours into genos specific voicing, midi files, sing sets etc, I hope most would be transferable. I find the genos inspiring and demoralising in equal amounts and korg tend to get the performance and user interface better which for me is actually just as important because being honest they all sound amazing.
You are so right. Song writing changed for me when I bought a PA 1000, the styles and sequencer were so easy to use. But as you said, I would use the PA 1000 for song creation and my Yamaha Keyboards for lead or pianos sounds (Motif61 SPEX90). But that changed when I bought a Nautilus 61 & 76.
So... If this Pa5x has the sounds and key bed of the Nautilus and an improved arranger capability... Then I think the King (Genos) might have some competition.
please, where do we distinguish between korg pa5x international and korg pa5x musikant
That arranger keyboard is one power house when it comes to features and quality. I can only dream of having one as the price is way out of my league. Nothing wrong with dreaming they say. Anyways I really like your reviews and in depth analysis of all products you demo.
I have a couple questions on the styles... Are all of them geared towards specific songs like Lovely Day, Billy Jean, Hey Jude, Get Lucky, etc. Or are there generic ones like 6/8 Blues, Bossa, Reggae, 4/4 Pop etc. that aren't obviously styled for specific songs, like they are generic backing tracks of whatever genre/style. Does the full keyboard work to auto-change the chords as you play along with the style or is it restricted for a couple notes in the bass? For example will it auto-change the chord if you use arpeggiated chords in the base with full chords in the treble? Not sure if I'm explaining that correctly to make sense.
WELL PRESENTED!!
Yes. But please, use a better stand next time, to me the wobbling was quite distracting :)
I really enjoyed this excellent demo of an impressive keyboard but why, oh why, are you using a wobbly keyboard stand? All that jiggling about would drive me nuts!!!!!
Oh didn't I see it already for sale? And who knows how much it costs please tell me?
Hey Korg Akai MPC 61 key has enetered the market n raised d bar ....Isn't it time for Korg to upgrade d Pa series to be able to do more professional studio grade work by incorporating a fully functional editable high quality audio recording section instead of mp3? Kronos has 16track audio which can be added to d Pa5x or Pa6x.
If u scared adding fully functional audio cost may increase d cost of d workstation ...you can revive one of Korg previous audio workstation (Korg D 8 or 16, D 24 etc) exclusive audio mixer workstation with special sync functionality to be sold separately. Those who prefer could buy separately. That if Korg wants to b on top of this competition.
Video thật sự bổ ích 😘 Thanks
Bluey groove chord sequence surely not dm7, it's dmaj7.
WE NEED THE " QUICK RECORD IN THIS KEYBOARD ,, WE NEED THE " QUICK RECORD IN THIS KEYBOARD ,, WE NEED THE " QUICK RECORD IN THIS KEYBOARD
Really wish i knew this was coming only a couple months after I settled for the Nautilus not wanting to invest the the obsolete Kronos
This is an arranger, not a workstation like the Nautilus or Kronos. And from the software pov, Nautilus is an upgrade to the Kronos. From the design and front panel control section, it is a downgrade.
Why i cant on uper1 ,,,Mode,,, Ext,,, type midi n umber for external sound 127.064.003 or other
I'm looking for a workstation that can emulate real instruments really well. This one sounds great. I'm only using it in a studio, so I have access to great sounding plugins, but I like the idea of having an all in one workstation. I already have some really nice synths, but I'm looking to be able to emulate pretty much every kind of real acoustic, electric, wind, string, brass, percussion, etc.. instrument on the planet. This one is up there in price, so if I did get one, it would more than likely be B Stock or used.
Why get a workstation if you are in a studio? VI's will serve you way better (in terms of sound and control) than a dedicated keyboard arranger or workstation. The purpose of hardware multi-timbral keyboards such as these are primarily focused on live performance rather than studio arrangements.
VI's buddy! VI's !!
