aron Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Are most of you gigging with the PX-5S? Has it been reliable? Have any of you had an S90ES? If so, wondering how it compares...Hoping to get mine shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep owned an s90es and apart from the arps, PX is a better beast in pretty much every other way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Display Name Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Hi Aron and welcome to the Casio Music Forums. When you consider the PX-5S is half the price and half the weight and performs very comparably the S90, it becomes a very attractive gigging stage piano. The S90 does have more outputs, but for most people it's not a deal breaker, esp. when you consider you could buy 2 PX-5S for the price of a S90 (and have $400 to left over). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aron Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 Thanks. I never used the outputs on mine. I really need to get back to playing weighted keys so the PX-5S should be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aron Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 One last question. How does it sound in mono as a lot of gigs, I have to monitor in mono. Is the piano still good in mono? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 The PX-5s grand piano sounds excellent in mono. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Display Name Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 There is a preset stage setting optimized for mono live use (9-0 MonoLiveGrnd). It sounds great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aron Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 The deed has been done. Just waiting for the PX-5S and then the programming begins!From what I have read, everything should be easy and doable except mono lead sounds. Will see what happens with those sounds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aron Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Got a call today for a gig. Person asked if I mind carrying my keyboard for a half hour gig. I said no problem, my keyboard is 24 pounds and 88 keys!!!!Of course I could have really bragged and said my other one is 9 pounds and runs on batteries too! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
