Chord Sequencer - Korg Pa5X Masterclass

In the first part of our keyboard masterclasses, our Keyboard specialist Adam Whittle (who you might remember from the excellent Korg microKAST podcast) demonstrates how to use the Chord Sequencer on Pa5X.

Excellent tutorial. Thanks so much for showing so clearly how to use the chord sequencer. I thought it was worth mentioning to other viewers here that with Korg's release of the 1.3 operating system for the PA5X, Korg now makes it possible to assign chord sequences to the 16 matrix pads. This opens up the possibility to change the chord sequence in real time, say for instance if the bridge of a song uses a different chord progression. That capability makes it really easy now to have the PA5X automatically play an entire song's chord progression, freeing you up to concentrate on your own performance. A really powerful and IMHO much needed improvement!

Great point! I have gone through this on another video, as when I filmed this 1.3 wasn't available as it was filmed sometime ago.

Adam - I really enjoyed the tutorial. You really know this Korg Pa5x. I immediately went over to mine and started using what I learned from you. Thank you! I hope you do more! It's a fabulous arranger but there is so much to it!

Thank you so much for another great tutorial on the Pa5x.
I have watched many many tuts since I got my Pa5x and I must say that yours have helped me the most. You have a clear way of presenting the complex features of this wonderful instrument that just seems to help the information sink in.
If I may ask, a Masterclass on creating ones own User Mode sounds from the Pa5x sound engine would be so very helpful to many like myself.
Thanks again for a great tutorial.
Best regards from down under.

Greetings from Sweden. Your tutorial was really useful and gave me even more joy to play on my pa5x. Thank you Adam🎶🤗

[@user-uy2qf7hq4e]

I think you're great thanks for sharing please keep these vids coming thankyou

[@peteratkinson8957]

Hi Adam, good to see you back showing Korg. When it comes to PA's you da man. I'm off now to practice the chord sequencer on my Pa-5x88. Thanks and greetings from Sydney Australia. 😊

Hi Adam. Good to see you back. With some interesting tutorials.

[@jimthatcher2335]

I love this feature. Yes it is not cheating to use the Chord Sequencer. There are so many other things to keep you busy and your hands are not just a slave to the chords. I’m finding if you’re playing with other people they get to count on the consistency of the song. Thanks Adam. -Jim

[@MarkL-q5m]

Thanks for the video, really useful to see how to mix up chord sequences for different styles

[@MrGazzauk4]

Thanks Adam.. Great to see you back.. Miss the webinars from both you and Luke.. Hope you will do more?

[@ScanKeyboards]

More is coming hit the bell so you won't miss out!

[@marcThysebaert]

Thanks Adam for this demo

[@Cornish_Maid]

I just wish I was close to your store, as where I am in deep west Cornwall there isn’t anywhere to go to try out this pa5x, which I’m looking to buy in the near future. It looks to be an amazing keyboard. Thanks for all your videos. Melissa

[@ScanKeyboards]

Happy to a video demonstration anytime for you

[@globalsoundsweden5900]

Great video THANK YOU.

[@aguerojulio]

exelent thanks

[@MrMartinStark]

Hi Adam, thanks for your Tutorials. Nobody can answer me this question: ( maybe you)Is it possible to save the dual player setting ( like at the end, first player style, second player audio) in one! Songbook register? This would be a big help. greetings from Switzerland

[@ScanKeyboards]

In a word...no but you can cheat it.. check out the video going live later today!

[@serkans]

Thanks for the video but I can not believe that Step Backing Sequence option is not available on PA5X

[@ScanKeyboards]

Cannot wait for v1.40 won't be long!

[@1mataleo1]

Is there a quick way to transpose the chord sequence into a different key without globally transposing the entire keyboard? Or do you have to actually edit the chord sequence and transpose each chord by manually entering the appropriate root for each chord in the desired key?

[@ScanKeyboards]

Unfortunately not the chord sequence will only play what you have physically recorded in to the Pa5X.

[@1mataleo1]

Thank you my friend

[@jansmit4628]

Isn't this what Yamaha called Chord Looper?

[@ScanKeyboards]

Very similar yes
