Crunch Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I've been having so much fun constructing and recreating tunes that I haven't taken the time to WOW! and thank Mike and others for the very hard work they do answering questions, and making new sounds and sequences. I couldn't live without my P1. I've been retired for two years and done little but make music. Am currently notating and programming Miles Davis' "In a Silent Way" and using the P1 almost exclusively, and it sounds excellent. I'm substituting a flute in the P1 for a trumpet but I'll get the horn player down the block to do the trumpet parts. I've got a Roland Fantom XR sound module with an orchestra board in it that gives me all my violins. Again and again though I return to the P1. And all for $500! Such a deal. I was a CZ 101 lover in the 70's and 80's but gave that to somebody who fell in love with it. I Knew when Casio came out with this new series that I was going to have to have one. It does fall a bit short in number of usable sounds but what keyboard doesn't for the price range. My Roland is full of sounds I'll never use but a realistic trumpet and flute, no naye never. I guess trumpets are very difficult to recreate. I wish I knew how to program sounds but I don't, so I don't want to whine too loud. Let it be said I'm very happy with the P1. Just a note, that I bought Jamstix and it has blown me out of the water. Set it in motion and it's like having a real drummer in the corner. But I use the P! too for electronic drums. The two can easily be made to play together, adding the P1 drums to Jamstix drums via midi. Salute to all and hope you are having as much fun with your P1 as I am.

dekatran Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I trade by mistake my KORG DDD1 Drum machine with the Casio XW-P1. After an afternoon with it I Love it!!!! It has lots of analog/digital style sounds which are very nostalgic. It is the best trade that I've ever made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
