We'll be doing live artist interviews, demonstrations, and taking questions as we go. Thank in advance and looking forward to seeing you there. -

@Executor I understand exactly what you're saying and we're always looking to improve in that regard. -

Mike Martin replied to Akshansh - Alex's topic in General Casio Discussion
It depends on what part of the world you're in. PX-5S, PX-560 and MZ-X product are still available in the USA. One of products that is the topic of this thread will definitely be added to the synthesizer section. -

All the time I spend on Facebook groups and answering questions on this forum are outside of my job. I can also say my opinion for free and as I've already done throughout this thread. You're hung up on the name of a product rather than what it does as an instrument - an instrument haven't even heard it yet. -

O'Neil. No one is forcing anyone to buy anything. Your objection to the product seems to be the name. These new models take some of the features of CT-X and improves them. If that doesn't interest you then don't buy one. Like CT-X these are not beginner instruments. -

There is nothing about the upcoming instruments that is a downgrade. As you've seen from the pictures there real-time controls and much more that has yet to be unveiled. These also aren't replacements for CTX instruments. The Casiotone line provides a different solution. -

It's not the wand, it's the wizard. How many examples of hit songs that were written and recorded on Casio / Casiotone keyboards does it take for you to understand? I'll try another analogy. "The Best camera is the one you have with you" and for many people these days that is their phone. The latest iPhone and Samsung "phones" are incredible cameras. Can they do what a modern Canon / Sony / Nikon mirrorless can do? No, but does that make them toys? Absolutely not. Casio / Casiotone keyboards represent a solution for so much musicians, of every skill and budget level. Larry Goldings - pianist for James Taylor was on tour last year and bought himself a used Casiotone for working songs in the hotel room at night. Later he got himself a new Casiotone CT-S1. These aren't toys to him, they're instruments. There are countless other professional musicians that use Casiotone keyboards in similar situations. Jordan Rudess, Steve Weingart, Larry Dunn, John Mayer, Steve Lukather to name a few. (Money) Mark Nishita has over 70 Casio keyboards! Casio instruments are often designed to fit a very specific price and market. Sometimes that means the instruments don't do "everything" perhaps they way all customers wants. What some people call limitations, others will call opportunities which inspire creativity. In the process of working on the release of these products one of the artists working with one of the new instruments texted me this: "Seriously , this is the most fun I’ve had making / discovering music in a very long time". In my career, I've worked for Kurzweil, Yamaha and several music software and music hardware companies. I can say without hesitation that my job at Casio has been the most rewarding. I've seen these instruments change peoples lives. If you think these instruments are toys, the problem isn't with the Casio it's with the user.- 145 replies

Play Logic Pro MIDI output through CTX-5000's speakers
Mike Martin replied to Bradley's topic in CT-X3000 / CT-X5000
The CTX-5000 is not an audio interface. It isn't possible so send Audio over USB to this instrument. -

Mike Martin replied to Akshansh - Alex's topic in General Casio Discussion
I'm not exactly sure what you're saying. It is as simple as this. Casio makes instruments for musicians at a variety of skill levels. Some may suit your needs, some may not. Luckily you have choices of many brands. With products Casio introduced earlier this year like the CT-S1 they've managed hit a magical spot where both beginners and professionals are buying it - it is a fun, affordable and inspiring instrument. These upcoming products will meet and exceed the requests of many users since the CT-S1 and other Casiotone products were released. It has MIDI clock capabilities and much more you won't expect. Since you don't have the product obviously you don't know what you're talking about. -

All music in this video clip from the upcoming product. -
1. Not currently possible 2. To add songs, they would need to be MIDI files (.MID format). There are many sites with free MIDI files or files to purchase. 3. Not sure what you're asking here. There will be some Casio App updates soon. I'll post info here as soon as I am able.

I can't speak for Casio Europe specifically but the CDP-S360 won't be available here in the USA until late February, early March. I would guess that Casio Europe is on a similar schedule.

Bluetooth Audio & MIDI for Casio GP-510
Mike Martin replied to Findus's topic in Celviano Grand Hybrid Series
Get a third party wireless MIDI adapter from CME or other company. For around $50 you can add BT MIDI. For even less you can add BT Audio to the Aux input. -

USB Midi driver for Windows 10
Mike Martin replied to jirka's topic in General CTK / WK / LK Discussion
Your CDP-230R does not not require a driver. It is class-compliant. No drivers are needed. -
Velocity issue on 1 key on my PX-S3000
Mike Martin replied to ahutnick's topic in Privia PX-S Series
99% of the time this is caused by dust / dirt. Give the compressed air a shot. If you gig outdoors, the other culprit is small bugs. 😝 -
Check https://www.cme-pro.com - they have a Bluetooth MIDI product coming that should work on class-compliant products like the CT-X series.
