Korg PA-700 Oriental

I needed this for good quality sounds for playing Arabic Music (I was playing VST+MIDI), this is the cheapest option I found.
The styles and sound included sounds better than I expected, and they sound incredible and even punchier through a PA system.
This is my first Synth (after only MIDI+VST usage), so I have been learning to use the features and they are awesome. The sequencer, the karaoke feature, using songbook, etc.
I still have to dig into sound editing and create styles from scratch, but I'm totally satisfied with this at the moment.
Maybe the only limitation is that PRO players go directly to PA4x or KRONOS so the best resources are avaliable for those models, but I was not considering spending that much for a synth at this moment.

Now I have been having a lot of fun creating Songbook entries for songs I like.

So for the price level, I would totally buy the same again if mine somehow got broke or stealed.

Just got it yesterday so still got a lot to learn with the controls, first impression is very good, lots of features that I didn’t have in my older Yamaha, keys feel ok, touch screen is very clear and east to navigate.
As for Thomann service with handling and communication, 0/5 stars this time, I started my keyboard buying journey with them about 5-6 months ago, the pa600 was “arriving 1-2 weeks” if I remember, so I bought it, months passed and they kept saying next week, next month, on the 22ns on the 29th… etc during these months I purchased other gear that didn’t ship on time either so I canceled these orders and when I found the pa700 in stock… I bought it, this time it finally got shipped on time with minor bumps on the road,… I was so very impressed when I started buying gear from Thomann but now their email replay rate and speed has declined and they are not as helpful as they used to be, I’m looking for other music stores, I might Porsches one more thing here since I have some customer credit left but that will be it, disappointed
