  1. Simply use the mixer. You can adjust volume, pan, and effects for each part. Save your settings to a registration.
  2. I reread your last post. You have an Apple phone with a lightning port? For that, you will need an Apple camera adapter kit plus a standard USB printer cable to connect your piano.
  3. Usually when we see this, the issue comes down to the cable being used. Are you using an Apple brand cable? Is it USB-C to USB-B? The flash drive port on the piano won't work for the app.
  4. Here is a Youtube playlist of many excellent tutorial videos on the PX-5S. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOjemuASmXoMwo9rCtfKTOK_KJx3HV9g0
  5. User tone files are only compatible with the model they are created with. Conversion is not possible.
  6. The Apple camera adapter kit and a standard USB printer cable is needed for the app.
  7. I would send it in for repair. Warranty for PX models is 3 years for the original owner when registered online.
  8. PX-730 was released in 2011. Parts for older models are often discontinued after so many years. This is not something specific to any manufacturer. Yamaha also discontinues parts for older models. The automotive industry has the same practice. It sucks, but that's the way things are. Sometimes we have to get a little creative to keep things going. I always say, where there's a will, there's a way. As others have suggested, try contacting a local repair shop. You may also find some NOS (new old stock - a common automotive term) parts somewhere.
  9. Those are great suggestions. I have faith that when the time is right, Casio will once again bring out some awesome new synths and arrangers in the high end range.
  10. Overdubbing is not possible using the PX-560 audio recorder. But you can playback a MIDI recorder song while recording it as audio to the flash drive.
  11. It is there as ZPF file. Click the view file button in the first post here. That will take you to the download page, then click the download button. It will download NOIRE_GR.ZPF.
  12. Actually my instructions came from the MZ-X500, so that's where the difference comes in.
  13. https://www.casiomusicforums.com/index.php?/topic/12507-pop-presets/
  14. Press edit>advanced>layer>choose a layer>pitch>course tune, adjust until the layer reaches a 4th.
  15. Keep an eye out for used ones on the internet marketplaces. Some pop up occasionally. Now this is purely an educated guess, but the SP-32 pedal unit should have all of the parts used in the PX-730. That might be an option to get parts.
  16. The negative measure is not actually part of the recording. It is added by the system in real time. This is why it's a negative value.
  17. Precount gives you a 1 measure click track before the song starts playing. This is normal. Try turning precount off.
  18. You should send the unit in to a Casio service center.
  19. I'll try to clarify what is happening some more. What you are hearing (amp envelope change in the synth wave layer on the stereo strings tone) is simply a side effect of altering the attack time, which alters the amp envelope of the tone. Attack time is not equally affecting all layers because that preset tone was not designed with a slow attack in mind. Note that attack time editing is available for all preset tones, although it may not be useful on all tones. This is the nature of editing preset tones. Some parameters are not effective on all tones equally, or have a limit to their effective range. When selecting tones for editing, it is common practice to start with a tone that is similar to the desired result. A slow stereo strings preset is available, which comes with a slow attack. This is where I would start, rather than increase attack time on the first stereo strings tone. Casio allows some pretty incredible editing of preset tones in the PX-S3000, while some manufacturers in this price range don't offer that option at all. I'm not surprised that some interesting results can be found when digging in deep with editing. The DSP system is also incredible, and can really create some wild sounds that you wouldn't expect. It's pretty fun to see what the limits are. 😁
  20. Did you try using slow stereo strings instead? That tone is designed to do what you're looking for.
  21. Welcome to the forums. To be clear, exactly which Casio model is the question about?
  22. Here's my take on this, what it sounds like, and looks like to me. I suspect that strings tone is actually a carefully crafted layered blend of string samples and a synth wave, to add richness to the tone. If this is the case, altering attack time can cause an unexpected change in the amp envelope of the synth layer. If so, the abrupt change in the amp envelope isn't totally unexpected. As far as what sounds like aliasing, is that heard directly from the speakers of the keyboard or through headphones connected directly to the keyboard? I suspect whatever audio interface you're using is causing the aliasing.
