Bill, I upgraded the synth and have not noticed any difference whatsoever. That is not to say there is none, only that I could not tell any difference since I could not do any A/B comparisons. I am very skeptical of those who claim to have noticed a difference without having done an actual A/B comparisons. Far too many factors at play. The K3 is a truly exceptional performer. For your uses, you would not notice any difference either, IMHO. 73, Bob/AA6VB
