Display Name Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Here's the press release:http://www.casio-usa.com/news/content/Casio_Showcases_Four_New_Sampling_Keyboards_at_Summer_Namm_2014/ I got some hands-on time at NAMM.. they are really fun. For those of you who remember the Casio SK-1, it works very much the same way except you can do so much more with the samples, like effects and turning them into percussion tracks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Null Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Color me disappointed to see the sampling on low end keyboards. Now if Casio were to release a PX-6S with sampling, THEN my tail would wag :D Gary 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Arend Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 When i heard casio was doing something with sampling i was excited, but when i saw those keyboard's it was a bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Arend Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 If they would have gave us SD card storage, and old school midi port's i would have been very interested.Guess i will have to hope i can find a good deal on an XW-G1 someday.Of course it could take a while.

Grasspike Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I wish really wish Casio would make a new modern SK style sampler with 12 voice polyphony, mini keys, real MIDI in and out jacks, SD card storage and built in speakers. Rather than add sampling to a low end Rompler make sampling it's primary function. Allow it to be able to easily sample things that could then be played back polyphonically Make a simple PC editor for it that turns WAV files into samples that could be played in the instrument. No need for USB just have the editor save to SD You also don't need to load it up with a bunch of rompler sounds either, just include an SD card with some cool samples loaded on it Korg was very close to this with the Microsampler.
