Skyscrapersax Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Hey, Before I drop the bread on a new PX5S (which I'm about ready to do), does anybody know if Casio is ready to unleash its successor anytime soon? Like at Summer NAMM? Mike Martin, can you even utter such a thing? Thanks, - Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Go buy your PX-5s. It's still fresh in the world of keyboards, so it's a safe bet it's going to be around for while. Besides, we are still discovering new things it can do. The book is far from written on the PX-5s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jokeyman123 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Anybody looking to unload theirs cheap, let me know...I can use a stage version of my PX350-I'll find room here somewhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Ha! Good luck on that. I let a friend sit in on my PX-5s for a song or two the other day. I had a hard time getting my PX-5s back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esh Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 New keyboards are closely guarded secrets because existing stock on dealer shelves devaluates as soon as announcements are made. You won't hear about it until we all hear about it. However I would speculate that we could see some step-up model of the PX5s (PX7s?) at 2016 WNAMM next January. But then again, as long as the PX-5s is selling well there is nothing to keep Casio from delaying the release of a newer model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I don't like speculation myself. The PX-5s is only 2 years old. That is still a baby yet in the world of keyboards. I am not looking for a replacement since the current model has so much left in it to explore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like at Summer NAMM? Mike Martin, can you even utter such a thing? Thanks, - Jeff No, I can't comment about future product development. I'll say that the PX-5S continues to sell at a very steady pace. [/End Speculation] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like at Summer NAMM? Mike Martin, can you even utter such a thing? Thanks, - Jeff Jeff, go buy it. We're about to conclude Musikmesse 2015 without any fanfare, and if you wait until Summer NAMM, by then you'll want to wait for NAMM 2016 in January ... and by then, you'll want to wait until Musikmesse 2016 ... and then you'll want to wait until Summer NAMM 2016 ... and with all that inertia in waiting, you might as well wait for NAMM 2017 ... and then 2018 ... and why not wait for a new decade in 2020? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyscrapersax Posted April 18, 2015 Author Share Posted April 18, 2015 Hey, thanks for all the replies! I'm in Detroit, Michigan, so the U.K. is a little far away, but thanks... Putting it all together, it's still selling well, and being two years old, a successor is in the works, but not imminent (i.e., not at Summer NAMM 21015). These puppies aren't like saxophones - I've been playing my Selmer Mark VI tenor for 42+ years! Still the best in the world... Then a gain, they're not like cell phones, either ("the next big thing has just been replaced by the next big thing")... My guess is Summer NAMM 2016 (not 2015). Placing my order during the week.... Thanks, - Jeff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gmul Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I have checked my local ebay, adverts done deal ( last two regional small ads websites) and not one px for sale. I guess when people buy this board, they keep it. It's a truly unbelievable piece of kit. I would NEVER sell mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea4023 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Hi Guys, It's 16 months since this thread was started, and the silence is deafening !!! I will admit that over the last forty years I have spent vast sums of money on keyboards (arrangers in particular) and I honestly do not think I have ever been so happy with a purchase than my current PX5-S. It's an astonishing keyboard in my opinion, at the time of launch over three years ago a statement from Casio. The PX5-S is backed up by a pro-active group of users that are happy to post their creations free of charge on the Forums for all to download and enjoy along with Casio's own contributions. Mike Martin is undoubtedly the star of the show with his Youtube videos and teach-ins, and also a genuinely nice man. I look forward to meeting him one day. I would like to see a replacement for the PX5-S for purely selfish reasons..............Because I want to buy one. Chris p.s. Currently using a Korg PA4X alongside my Casio PX5-S.
