PRESS RELEASE
Korg Releases Pa1X OS Version 3.0
February 13, 2007
Operating System Version 3.0 for the Pa1X, Pa1X Pro and Pa1X Elite, Korg's flagship arranger keyboards, is now available.
The new operating system includes:
- Support for long file names. You are no longer limited to the classic format 8.3, all capitals. Now names can be as long as you like, and mix upper and lower case characters. Names of files trasferred via USB or CD from a personal computer will not be cut into shorter names, and will look exactly as the original
- Easier way to start recording Songs from any measure. Go on recording your Song. If you want to do second-pass recording, starting from a measure different than the first one, you are no longer asked to move to that measure using the Fast Forward command. Just choose the new starting measure with the Start Measure parameter, and go on recording from there
- Up to 16 oscillators per Sound. Create Sounds as sophisticate as you like. In the Pa1X, each oscillator is a different sound at all. You can either create very rich sounds, or add as many dynamic layers as you like, for the highest degree of nuance in a single sound
- Smarter pre-selection of Style Elements. You can now select a different Variation just before jumping to a different Style. The Variation you choose will overtake the one memorized in the Style Performance
- Faster SongBook operations. Huge SongBook files are now loaded and saved much quicker
- Ending 3. A new, shorter ending is included. For those of you who prefer to cut short in the end
- Revised user interface, with bigger buttons, bigger fonts and colored sliders
- Enhanced Lyrics and Select pages, for better readibility
- Revised Musical Resources, with various improvements and the new Ending 3 for Styles
- Smarter Solo Mode, to be activated with Shift + Touch
- Tempo Lock in Song Play mode, to quickly freeze Tempo and keep it the same in subsequent Songs
- Contextual Help now available also in Dutch and Russian languages
The new OS is released together with a new set of piano sounds, featuring pedal resonance and RX noises, based on the same technology used in the recent C-Series of digital pianos and Pa800. Also, a set of 64 new Styles is included.
