  1. ah, OK, thank you. I will try it in the evening at home. And will report success.
  2. well thanks for answering ... I never updated so far. Even if I found the video from Mike Martin on youtube - long time before I bought the piano. Because I'm not so famous with flashing firmware (also same problem on PC - never flashed anything), I thought it would run without any changings, too. But I just downloaded the file and copied the update.bin to root of a stick. (but will need to backup all files and videos on that stick first. Will I need to press any key or button to proceed the update? Because so far it does not react on any key/button press, wenn booted. And homepage says: "4. Press the "POWER" button and execute "Update Firmware" in the System Setting Menu. " and a paragraph above: "After the update, you need to run the “Initialize All”."
  3. Hi, I have bought my PX 5S now 2 years ago (~ 14 month) for only 1100,- € in my instrument shop. Everytime I had time, I played (1/2 hour, 5 - 3 times a week or less, after work) For year ago, sometimes a boot ended with: Error - no media. Ok, I pressed start button again and switched it off, and pressed start button again - then it worked fine again. But today I get this message every time as I want to start it. It shows the PRIVIA logo on LCD fist, counts on the left side through all tones while showing: Please wait! on LCD and ends in: Error - no media, while flashing with blue LEDs on the right side (stage setting)I made i video of this. What can I do, to play again? Many thanks 20170328_105656_1.mp4 ~14 MB, mp4 video
  4. yamaha 609 not comparable [ >price!!!, ], and there are some kinkydinky sounds at the beginning. but can the casio reach a nearly warm, saturated grand piano sound, too? here is another. at minute 10:57 or; at min 11:35 (M. Jackson) or at 12:26 (Vangelis) [yes, I know some sounds are typical for yamaha] and here are the organs and Guitars mentioning (which sound here more realistic and not so agressive as on the casio): (from minute 2 to 5) here is a Roland: ▶ Roland F-130R Digitale Piano | Sound demo - YouTube ( )such a warm, saturated sound like at 0:32 or 1:49 - 1:59 or ▶ Kraft Music - Roland DP-90Se Digital Piano Demo with James Day - YouTube ( )at 0:59 and here I found ▶ Casio Privia Pro PX-5S -- PIANO Sound Bank Demo - YouTube ▶ Casio Privia PX-350 SoundBank 1 Demo - Grand Pianos - YouTube and .. mhh, I have to say that casio sounds more harder, rougher and not so deep (it sounds that it does not come so low down as the keys would go and there is so less warm resonance ...). compared to yamaha or roland it sounds poor If you press down a lower left hand C on Roland or yamaha you geht thrown backwards ... but on casio it nearly sounds as twittering - compared to those :/ Do you know what I mean? and if you close your eyes you can't here a difference to all the grand pianos except the mellow one which nearly sounds a bit squeezed like a bontempi organ Mhh, anyway also on keyboards I never understood the usage of sounds like these. Here it sounds that you want to avoid to use them in any music peace. ▶ Casio Privia Pro PX-5S -- SYNTH / VARIOUS Sound Bank Demo - YouTube ▶ Casio Privia Pro PX-5S -- GUITAR / BASS Sound Bank Demo - YouTube where I find that I can't imagine a real usage those instruments/voices In addition I repeat: I can't help me: I don't want to say anything bad about the casio, because I really want to buy and to love it! [the keys feel wonderful good for a digital] And when searching for sound examples I only found that above. That is why I am so tired and sad.
  5. Hi, ===================================================== I do not want to amke somebody angry or disturb. Please excuse - that is not my intent - these are just my current impressions. All I want is to really love this piano !!! I hope you can understand me. ===================================================== earlier I tended to buy a lower cost digital piano. my favourite until December was Yamaha DGX 650 which not had the best sounds too, but was affordable without having stress with my girlfriend. But then I played the PX 5s in a shop. Several times now. At first I was impressed by the really phat sound of the Grand piano. But pressing some keys without knowledge (first time, no shop assistant in the near to ask) I felt it was very difficult just to change instruments. After pressing + and - together (on the stage side) I was able to change to Mellow Grand and other. But. mmh, well that was not so convincing. Also the simple layering function (strings over piano ) was not fulfilling. - I have a 80€ keyboard, which as more powerful PainoStringsLayering function. But I further was impressed of the keys itself. The play feeling and sensivity. Then at home I searched for videos on youtube. There are some about WahahaWhahaah, didididididpBididididid, and jadadaddadad sounds,some from trade shows and exhibitions where it was praised as the new tool to create weeeehwehhhwehheee sounds. [in my eyes that sounds like a 30 yr old Bentompi-Orgun]). But I miss some from private users they play famous pieces (classical [beethoven, Mozart, etc.] or Pirates of Carribean, etc.) to compare. Because I want to play classical (as above), romantic (Clayderman,etc.) but I am interested in J.M.Jarre as well and would like to play some jazz or movie themes. And I have a real wooden piano at home. All videos I find are about the built in synthesizer - but less only about the grand piano and common sounds. I further found http://sc3900.wix.com/px-5s? where are some videos posted that I already know. Most about weewee and earlier mentioned. Even the charriots of fire has no so phat piano sound :/ the pice of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaPtWWjpsb4#t als sounds like a child organ. Very light. Not so impressing. Does one know that I mean? I played a roland digital piano and it had a more saturated sound. Can I set this in this instruement anyhow, too? (I hope! - because the key pressure, keys ivory feeling and buying price are very interesting. But I can't imagine what is playable with this that is well to listen?. can one help me? I do not want to amke somebody angry or disturb. Please excuse. All I want is to really love this piano !!! I hope you can understand me. many Thanks
