theocyanur « A treat! »
Published on 08/19/11 at 11:58I just give my opinion on the Korg PA500 Arranger.
Lomtemps I hesitated between the PA500, the mox6 of yamaha, yamaha psr and S710. Jai listen to demo a lot.
PRECISION: The purpose of my purchase is to produce film music, especially orchestral. I judge a lot about the ability of PA500 in this area.
The PA500 is a keyboard 5octaves with a double sequencer 16pistes and regulation of a large number of sounds, has to get lost!
UTILIZATION
I havent needed the manual.
The few problems are solved by the manual integrated into the arranger himself, a real plus!
The touch screen is really handy, if not just indispensable.
The sequencer is really a plus!
So now the sounds:
Orchestra level is very good, exellent strings! Especially when performance or lon orchestra mixes several different octaves!
The flutes are good, the extra saxes, harp is very beautiful, pizzicattos too!
The guitars are nice, pianos passable.
The drums are more than drinking and sfx to create environments are very real!
So what sounds are back?
In after me, the choirs. Very bad, no illusions as possible with a real choir. The grounds have over the mox6 xs / xf will be superior.
In short genial
OVERALL OPINION
I do not regret mo choice but a little less for voice and the fact that in the 16-track sequencer, only one performance (assembly of several sounds) can be saved, it will then make the sounds when you ... shame see the quality of performance ropes.
I havent used the styles, quick even when it sounds good, bravo korg!
