I wonder if Korg will use the new PA5x technology in an update to the PA-1000 which I currently use and would vastly appreciate better grand piano sounds...

The OS update to the Pa5X to remove some of the many bugs is supposedly due December 2022.

There have not been any significant updates to the other Pa models despite rumours been a plenty back in 2019 that the Pa4X Next OS would be released in versions for the 700 and 1000.

Any updates on when the Pa5x will be released in the US?... Seems that every other country now has them. I had issues with the Korg Nautilus I bought so sold it about 3 months ago but I just got another. Instead of buying a Pa5x 88, I am now going to get the 76.

 

[Biggles]

No idea, but I suggest you hold off buying until early next year.

The released OS is flaky and really only a Beta, and an update has been indicated by Korg is to be released in December.

Stores here in the UK are only showing PreOrder so it may be a moot point anyway.

Thanks, Biggles, I really appreciate your input. Are you saying it will be an update or a new board entirely?...

Same board updated OS.

I would expect the first update just to be bug fixes.

The missing 5X features v the 4X will probably come at some stage but goodness knows when, it took over four years with the 4X OS before it got the major OS update.

Hmm, that's pretty depressing... I really don't want to have to get a Pa4x or a Genos
