  1. Wait until you come across the grid view on the home page. It's full of Casio eye candy now. Mike hooked us up.
  2. I love the dark theme. I'll keep mine set on that.
  3. I "google" things to find them in this site too. It's just easier that way. šŸ˜œ
  4. Do you have more than 1 pair of headphones to try? I've found that the plugs on different headphones can vary in size, sometimes leading to less than stellar fitment whenever connected.
  5. You can always use your CT-X as a MIDI controller for software virtual instruments on a computer or mobile device.
  6. CT-X series models with tone editing cannot import new sample data. It is not possible to create new tones from scratch. It is only possible to do some basic editing of preset tones, all of which is easily accomplished on the keyboard itself.
  7. It is covered by a 3 year warranty. Sweetwater should be able to guide you. They have excellent customer service. In addition, here is a list of some service centers that can help. https://www.casio.com/support/musicservicecenters
  8. Factory reset is done by holding down both tempo buttons while powering on. Unfortunately I think you will need to have it serviced. When did you purchase the unit? Was it new or used?
  9. Most preset piano sounds are panned left and right, with bass notes left, and treble notes right. That is probably why you heard a difference.
  10. Have you been able to use the USB cable with a computer successfully? And the camera adapter with another device successfully?
  11. 24 volts is common on Casio models with higher wattage speaker systems. CT-X5000, MZ-X series, CGP-700, and many Privia and Celviano console digital pianos.
  12. Are you using a standard USB printer cable combined with an official Apple brand camera adapter?
  13. Just a heads up, promoting items for sale is not allowed on this site, Casio or otherwise. Such posts will be removed.
  14. 1 tone with DSP can be recorded. DSP becomes disabled for any other tones that are recorded.
  15. Deleting the file is the only way. Once a recording starts or is in record standby, the file is already created.
  16. Yes, it's mainly synth sounds designed to emulate the classic monophonic synths. Casio has featured a mono mode on many recent models. The MZ-X500 has a mono mode in it's synth engine. The XW series synths have an entire category of sounds dedicated to mono synth, called the "solo synth" tones.
  17. Hi Owen! Welcome to the forums. Sorry to hear about this. First, you can try to blow some air between the keys. If that fails to solve it, it is covered under warranty. You can send it for repair. Let's hope the air works.
  18. Preset tones with delay use DSP to create the effect. This can be system delay, or a DSP insert effect. Casio calls insert effects "DSP", but both system effects and insert effects are technically using DSP (digital signal processing) to generate sound. None of this uses polyphony.
  19. Polyphony is the total number of samples the sound engine can playback at any given moment. It does not matter wether those samples are sustained from a previously played note or not. DSP does not use polyphony to create effects. DSP and polyphony are not related.
  20. Not at all. Monophonic tones are intentionally designed for a particular style of music, style of playing. They're useful as solo synth lead tones and more.
  21. If you know the sound of the MZ-X500, I can compare that 40 watts to the 30 watts of the CT-X5000. MZ-X500 vent ports face the rear, so you may hear more mid bass on the CT-X5000 since the vent ports are on top. I'd say the MZ is definitely louder, but it's a pretty close race between the two. I often play the CT-X5000 in bed or on the sofa, although I'm sure the lighter and slimmer CT-X700 is more comfy over a longer period. The X5000 can get heavy after a while.
  22. The CT-X series cannot import MIDI files from a flash drive. WAV files and MIDI files stored on a flash can be played back however. The methods Chandler Holloway outlined in the pinned post can can convert MIDI files to Casio rhythms that the CTX series can import, however I'm not aware of a process to convert MIDI files to phrase files.
  23. That is not possible. MIDI IN is for use as a sound source only. The input does not internally route to the sequencers.
