Korg PA1000 worth to buy...its more cheaper than yamaha SX900

[@nickbeqiri2289]

@@wan-hb1dh cheaper yes.. but has more to offer because of a higher price "Like newer engine/sound card & it also has Arpegios which Korg doesn't" - the SX900 has really become the perfect all around keyboard (or Genos the Bigger brother), nothing compares to them since this new Update 2.0 (Korg has the OS3.0 update which is the maximum 600mb for voices which is preety good, but Yamaha with the 2.0 update took it further and more effects and so on, and just wait for the next big update in the next 8-10-12 months which will go even further), if Korg don't come out with a new Pro5X or something, they're done just like Roland! Yamaha really surpassed everyone right now.. but this Korg Pa1000 isn't bad at all for the money, tons of features and very rich in sound, but very bad KEYBED, the worst I've seen.. just can't play on it and that's where they messed up BIG TIME! Woudn't mind paying extra $100-150 to have a really good keybed, it's horrible what they put in there some cheap $50 plastic!

[@nachiketajeyaraman5674]

@@wan-hb1dh in India the yamaha is cheaper

[@Ipaqalypse]

@@nickbeqiri2289 There are Arpeggios in Korg PA1000 and the Sound engines in both are pretty comparable. I own over 20 keyboard and i can personally say it comes down to preference on what the type of sound it is that your looking for. I have been on the Yamaha side for a while, but now tend to go more with Korg because of quality and sound. In defense of both keyboards there are unique sound signatures you get with each brand. Personally i find the Korg one better because of feel and size (but also ease of customization of sound quality). Korg also offersTC-Helicon and Defined Nuance Controls which make the Korg experience very realistic and personal. Don't get me wrong neither one are perfect, and no keyboard ever is (hence my growing collection over the years lol). Overall it really comes down to preference and what sound your are looking for and what interface you are most familiar with (not a factor if you are new to both thought). If you are into nice sounding pianos then definitely korg, but Other instruments sound better on Yamaha - But in all honesty both are capable of some pretty amazing sounds with the right amount of tweaking.

[@HubertEtAlice]

The Yamaha sounds way more modern to my ears. Two drawbacks: 1. Way too much reverb is being applied by default to the samples. 2. Some of the samples have been around for decades literally, for instance the tenor and the soprano saxophone. Also it must be noted that on the Korg everything is fully tweakable. Not everyone is aware that there is a fully-fledged synth hiding behind every PA arranger which is certainly a great plus for Korg.

[@JoeBearPA]

Thank you for this information... I was trying to decide between the Yamaha, and the Korg to purchase (although considering the PA4X 76)..I want Vocal features... and this Yamaha had them... but having been an old Yamaha owner PSR-600, I was impressed, but always had that "Too Modern" feeling left in me. I am a trained musician and like a sound more closely related to "analog".

[@Talia.777]

Very well said, but in general, drums, percussion and acoustic sounds of Yamaha has always been superior to korg (in Arranger keyboard I mean)

[@solentflyerparagliding]

Great comparison although as arranger keyboards, you also need to think about ease of use and user interface - how easy is it to operate either at home recording or arranging or live when gigging...ease of use and ability to actually operate it is also important - for me the Yamaha seems to offer the best combination of sound quality, versatility and ease of use...

[@michaelsmith697]

I played the Yamaha in a music shop yesterday and i found the violin and cello voices to be extremely realistic! Also the various Church organs were very good. The Korg full cathedral organ is also good. I have the Korg, i find the keyboard touch to be difficult to play - it’s too spongy and you need to play on the edge of the keys, or they are hard to press. The Yamaha action is easier to control. I’m a pianist with a grand. Weighted it better of course but i want the keyboard for realistic sounds and sequencing

[@martinj.a6602]

[@DJAsianNugget]

I'm a big Korg fan, and my opinion is: I like the Korg PA1000, because is has this: Easy style creating adjustable screen video output easy recording on the keyboard Adjust brightness That's all I have to explain. Although I have a Pa700, but that is similar. easy to set volume for each sample User style bank names are easy to find.

[@netzoomer]

Firstly compliments to the performer. Great job in playing al the different styles and showcasing various musical instrument sounds. Lots of setting up must have been necessary to make this live comparison go so smoothly. Both instruments are superb in their own way. I prefer the piano sounds of the Korg. The guitar of the Yamaha was more to my liking. The flute sounded better on the Korg. The Yamaha would be a better pick for a big hall. Love its brassy big band sounds. The Korg would sound better in a club environment. It had a more warm feeling. They were both superb but if I had to pick one it would be the Korg. EddieB

@Branko Jerbic I own a PSR SX 700. For the past few month I was desperately finding a way to load the CFX piano on my keyboard too. Would be great if you could share how you were able to do that. Thank you in advance.

[@amusic9825]

SX900 has no CFX grand samples like on MODX or Genos which should be included in the SX900. They are always putting shitty dated crappy piano sample in their PSR keyboards. Genos has C7 so it wouldn't hurt to have CFX grand in the SX700, 900.

[@tkarlmann]

How is the CFX Piano voice working for you? How much memory did it take? How happy are you with it compared to the Grand Piano already in the SX? Did you put the CFX into the SX900 directly, a Memory Stick, or a computer? Current price at Sweetwater is $159. Worth it?

When it comes to acoustic sounds like Guitar or Brass/Trumpet, Yamaha is still state of the Art, but KORG managed to get some very modern, innovative Features even in their mid price range instruments, while Yamaha still sticks by it´s old roots. I still prefer rhodes and organs from KORG, they are not sterile and Hi-Fi trimmed as Yamaha did

[@jwillis35]

Both boards are fantastic. I'd take either. I think the Yamaha has the better drums and bass to go along with its strengths in acoustic instruments. The styles seems so balanced and nicely mixed. The Korg is extremely strong in areas as well. Love the interface, the synth sounds, strings, etc. Both have massive capabilities, so with tweaking and editing/mixing you should be able to do some incredible things.

The Yamaha uses more FX with its samples. I've been a Yamaha die hard for 25 yrs and they dont like you messing around with what THEY think you should sound like. You need a masters degree in particle science to edit the Korg and the forum rooms are empty of people who know how to edit. The manuals are written assuming you have that masters degree (which I have but not in Korg science) - but the hours drift away as I learn all the tweaks I can do to get the sound I want not what the manufacturer wants. Yamaha uses samples in the T5 I had in the Pro 9000 I had 18 years of cheating isn't on. Korg just seems to give you better samples, DSP, styles etc and trades up. In the end, it comes down to personal preference I think, just now I'm with Korg. With the Yamaha T5 you had these huge galactic big band intros which went into quite a bland style real night and day.

This comment section nearly turned into fanboy wars.. While we can agree that it's all just a matter of taste, preferences and what you actually needed... In fact for example, I prefer the looks and overall sound of Yamaha because it sounds "cleaner & polished" but I have so many bad experiences playing live with Yamaha keyboards because it couldn't cut through the mix in a full band context. Unlike Korg which fits better into the mix when playing with a full band especially for live use. I know that arrangers meant to be played as a one-man band in the first place but I play with a band and I need the features & practicality of Arrangers _(built-in speakers, auto-accompaniment, etc..)_ because I often do silent practice in my bedroom or just bringing my keyboard to jam at the office or outdoor when I'm hanging out with my friends. So I kinda look for the best of both worlds which is an Arranger that also suited for playing live with a band, and Korg wins in a slightly higher position than Yamaha for me in almost all of those contexts. Also despite that, Yamaha looks great, so much cooler looking than Korg which looks somehow outdated. But that's it, I have to choose according to my needs.

@@vividazzle04 based on price and features, Genos would go against the Pa4X, Krome would go against the MODX.

[@vividazzle04]

@Scott H I see thankyou

[@vimalkumarjariwala8092]

Both keyboards company is very good I have Yamaha Psr a2000 and Korg pa1000, But Yamaha very good in Monsoon Sesson to play after 5:00pm Like evening soul, Korg More good on somtime on church or temple Music and Rock and Pop etc. Overall both is very good, Depends on players MOOD.

[@ubanoskrap5738]

i like both sounds, but to be honest when i used yamaha sx900 in a real band, it compressed the sound i don't know why. I'm a korg user before but i want to use this korg pa1000 in a real full band too i hope it will be suit for me. thanks for posting this video.

I've heard the best performance I'm learning a lot because of it He's always healthy and happy and come to my channel Thank you.

[@GenosGlory]

Yamaha wins all the way. As an ex korg pa4x and Genos owner I know what both can do.

[@christopherthomas37]

Come on Sir. Give me your 4x pleassse and keep the genos with you and I'll show what it can do. Really telling!

[@GenosGlory]

Christopher Thomas There is nothing you can do with the korg pa4x to surpas the Genos trust me. I wouldn’t say it if it isn’t true. Only good thing about the korg pa4x was the keys weight balance and you could edit the styles. Other than that on sound quality the Genos is the deserving winner. I dont have the Korg anymore so I cant give it to you lol. Wait for Korg PA5X instead as it will be revolutionary technology.

[@bojanstanisic85]

After using korg for years(from pa80 to pa3x) I bought Ketron Audya, regarding sound quality Ketron is just in another league.

[@RITA-RNT]

I’m about to buy one but which one of this both brand I should go for? Please help me, I will Purchase the one which’ll got more recommend. Thank in advance guys.

[@25musicmaker]

For me it's the Yamaha.

[@danielnavaraj191]

The advantage of using Yamaha in live us the easy acess like Registration memory, where as in korg we can acess only one kind of menu through touch

[@4thesakeofitname]

korg doesn't have register memory one button feature ??

[@danielnavaraj191]

@@4thesakeofitname Yes, you need to get into the voice selection page and select that time you can't access any other section like style track mute like that

[@germanshepherdlover2613]

What is the keybed action like on either? I hate cheap bad action. Both these sound good

[@michaelsmith697]

The Yamaha keyboard action is far better and easier to control than the Korg, which has a short area of playability. The Korg action gets too stiff towards the inner parts, whereas the Yamaha is more easier to press and play near the black keys area

[@klovismarc5493]

Yamaha is my winner ... I love it

[@mosesngatiah6365]

I'll have both.

[@cipriandiac]

And you brag? 😂

[@jorgecarrillo3054]

If i have the money , i Will go for both.

[@shabbirjdana]

How much now does korgpa1000 cost now?

[@ssdj383]

Prefiero el Korg por ser mucho más realista, y en cuanto a sus sintetizadores eso es editable tanto el reverb entre otros efectos que puedes poner a tus sonidos a tu gusto, Yamaha me gusta también, me encanta sus sintetizadores sonidos samples excelentes
