  1. Thank you again J'man! Actually I bought it as a B-stock from thomann.de since it was nicely discounted. They have mentioned it might present "slight traces of use" and they are guaranteeing for it for 3 years. My guess was that particular piano have been heavily used, and not just "slightly", prior of being returned to the shop, maybe as a demo piano or so, so I asked Thomann. They have replied that it has been returned in the "30 days return" policy, only once, and they (oddly) added that, indeed, the CDP keyboard is much sturdy and firm than PX-150's (although the price difference is significant...). But that was Thomann, not Casio :-) (They haven't mentioned the reason for being returned but it's worthless asking since their return policy doesn't require a reason for products to be sent back). Now I think in less than a month 30 days it can't be worn out so severely... I am considering to return it to be changed (it will cost me something...) but I said to ask some other owners/users first, maybe this is how it is! The more annoying is not the sound - passable if I turn the volume up - but the bounce in the upper register keys. If I press the key and depress it rapidly, it bounces two times before resting. So or it's not properly dampered or that's the "key feedback" as Casio thinks it should be. (The supplimentary noise is an effect of this bounce). Cheers! Cristian
  2. I'll do! (Wow, a lot of work! And courage ) Thank you!
  3. Hello! I've recently bought a Casio PX150 (from Thomann.de) I have a question about. Contrary to what I have read online (all excellent reviews) the key action on my piano is a bit odd: the keys feels kind of weak and have some lateral movement. Once firmly pressed and released the keys bounces and vibrate (kind of an exagerated key feedback) and they are very noisy as well. The sound and response is good, but the feel is... quite far from a real upright piano. The general state (aspect is OK - as new) and is functioning as expected. Is this how PX-150 keyboard is?! I am wondering since I have bought the PX-150 instead of the cheaper CDP-130 especially for the keyboard and key response, advertised as the one of the best from Casio. I haven't tested the PX-150 before but I had the opportunity to try the CDP-120 in a local store and the keys felt excellent, very firm and solid, much better than what I am experiencing now. Any opinion?Thank you very much!Cristian
  4. Hello, back again! Thank you all very much for your inputs. I have tried again, this time with my rooted phone (Galaxy S+) with no result, again. However, the problem is somehow layered, being tricky to connect any device to an Android phone with an OTG cable on the first hand. Once general mounting/connecting problem is solved comes the MIDI device connection challenge. Tried different drivers/methos yet but - as someone mentioned somewhere - the solution is architecture dependent so it's not easy. There's not an universal "pnp"-style solution... I'll keep trying, however and, as Scott said, I am sure the solution from Android devs is around the corner. Cheers!
  5. Tkank you very much J'man :-) I will keep trying/searching for and I will repost if any progress. Best, C.
  6. Hello! Does anyone connected the PX-150 or similar to an Android tablet?! I have tried with Walkband app and Pianist with no soccess. Theoretically it should work, but the tablet/app doesn't recognize the keyboard. My tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab3 running Android 4.2, not rooted. Thank you!
  7. Hello! You may/should turn the local control off (see the manual) and you will disable the keyboard sound, so it will functions as a remote midi kb. Regards,
