I'M NOT ALONE ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE

Here's what Google says about the poor quality of the Pa5X's buttons:


AI Overview

Users have reported recurring problems with bad button contact and unreliable performance on Korg PA5X keyboards, with some users experiencing multiple button failures within a short timeframe. 
Korg has been slow to resolve this widespread manufacturing issue, with some users having their buttons replaced multiple times without a lasting fix. If you are experiencing this problem, you should contact Korg support or your point of purchase to get the issue resolved, especially if your device is still under warranty.


The Problem

* Recurring Failures: Many PA5X users report that buttons, particularly LED buttons, develop bad contacts and fail to work reliably, requiring repeated replacements.

* Widespread Issue: The problem is not isolated to a few devices; it appears to be a common issue affecting many PA5X keyboards.

* Korg's Response: Users express frustration with Korg's handling of the issue, noting slow response times and a lack of effective, permanent solutions.
