Ha hahaha... Confucius say luv your asian woman, not spar her. Only way to win . damn right about the SY... Yes powerful until now... Wow u have the 350 too well aren't u set for real.!! Imagine Daisy chaining 32 tracks and wallow in what....500 poliphony!!! Now u'll never leave your studio .... No wonder Bitsy beat the crap out of u. U aren't fulfilling her needs ...! Go get dinner bring flowers and valentine with her now . That's an order... hahaha

i wish so too neth. these makers they give it to u little by little even if the technology is already there. i mean regardless whether 3k or 560 or WK or XW, why only two hours using battery when u can have it all night using solar power. charge it all day while in transport and play it all night. casio had already perfected solar gadgetry 40 years ago. why not a solar piano 40 years later. i wish so too buddy. until then id have to park my off roader way close to the shoreline and use the cigarette lighter ( through an inverter ) , to play anything 110w in a beach bonfire setting . well at least with a car lighter i can play all night. or give me those wallet sized power banks that double as an auto jump-starter and come with standard AC outlets. get that and u can follow any tribesman into his tiki hut for some lasting remote jungle jamming. 😄

560 is way more bang for your buck. how could u live with a 3 track sequencer , you'll need another device again or a pc again or another app or rig or studio gear again and each new device u connect to your keyboard will be an additional point of failure. So much potential headache even before you can start to play your first note, let alone record. with an all - in- one like the 560 ther are no more setup nightmares. With all the features, and power too, like with 250 polyphony, why carry a second keyboard? WITH 17 tracks and i mean 17 midi 17 audio and 17 mixer tracks who needs to carry all your Pro tools hardware ? That's why I chose the 560 I can go to the mountains with nothing but just a keyboard on my back . No more cable no computers no tablets no apps no lags no nothing just the 560 Workstation. and no point of failure either ! anywhere. at sea in the middle of nowhere i can finish a complete project with orchestral proportions and produce professional quality material and submit to clients. with still all the power and polyphony to create or record more sounds. That's not even using the hex layer which isnt available in d 3k . sso now u understand why I still think the 3k is overpriced for a lot of 560 power it doesn't have. and never get insecure about sounds. it's the least of your worry there are gazillion sounds out there for free that your midi piano can control and play at any time . plus it's a known fact even with Yamaha of Roland or Korg , that not all sounds sound better with newer engines. There are rhodes sounds from pre-privia days that still sound better than AIR or AIX rhodes. ther are AHL sounds that arguably are less sterile than their newer counterparts. Yamaha's old P45 fm awm synthesis piano sound is still favored over the P85 P95 and P105 of newer sound sampling technologies and they were forced to re engineer the P115 last minute in case it suffered the same comparison. Sometimes newer technology only means that. something newer but not better. and from the commercial standpoint , it's usually just a cheaper for more efficient way to make things. And if you’re worried about a lighter or heavier touch on the keybed just assess yourself. Unless you’re a frail asian female less than 5 ft tall with thin small hands suffering from arthritis, go for the standard heavy touch. Always makes you a better pianist in the long run. U also make less mistakes when you record with a heavier feel. Have you seen the 560 kbed up close? Grand piano galore it shames the Korg and Yamaha counterparts. U could charge serious rent for something that heavy feeling and that royal looking In your studio. OTOH the 3K is small and cute and if you’re a juvie still practising mostly go ahead go for its sexy looks why not. Make it your babe magnet. i would if it were around during my days. easy carry. too. but now im done with all that . now I need a serious machine to do serious work. I cant do it with only 3 tracks in a compact toy with no screen and a laggy app. So for those reasons I choose the 560. There is no wrong choice. Just hope to be happy with yours. Good luck with that!

thank u brad for your welcome. thanks again jokey. i will look into the mz 500 like it still matters coz i already bought the 560. and what s the point otherwise if ive been waiting decades to graduate from 61 keys and have those same power on the 88. and to jokeyman i am making my feelings known to the Casio world including japan if they log in here. but isnt that the whole point of forums, in aid of after sales legislation, improvement efforts and fixes and add ons especially software ones like in this case where the latest AIR tech is already in the physical infrastructure of this flagship model and requires nothing else but code. . why would they turn u down the first time? if u want we can make a concerted effort to reiterate this request making reference to your great contribution of a previous fix by your initiative that spawned the piano's enhancement after all and redounded to Casio's benefit even more than yours, uplifting consumer confidence where Casio's support reputation and instrument quality shines further. imagine unleashing a fresh lease in life for the 560 now that it's aging, and catapulting sales of re-issued 560's with this fix shifting all eyes back to it with even more sales potential. thats new income again for casio. and im willing to pay for this firmware. id rather pay more to convert to it and be a happy 560 owner, than die slowly everyday each time i look at this power synth and yet feel powerless, remembering the painful sacrifice of two great keyboards my sy and xp80 for it, that by now either would have made me finish my medley. im appealing to u brad to echo these sentiments up the corporate since youre admin. and jokeyman u can jump in anytime. thanks again guys.

thank u very much jockeyman. thats some shattering news, but u must be mistaken. any engineer that would put all those powerful features together all obviously pointing to the objective of creating a workstation to break records would not have been this stupid to leave out the most important aspect of production. no it must be somewhere there. i hev 250 polyphony but I can't enjoy them because some dimwit engineer after putting in all the muscle and high tech suddenly had a wet dream about linear recording casting the poor 560 back to the Dark Ages of tape recording because that is essentially what it has been reduced to . I'm sorry I can't believe it. for all that engineer's genius Casio would not have approved it. Not while the company was already hot on the trail of proving itself as the new force to blow the competition along technology and innovation. My God what did I do ? I disposed of precious competent vintage for something supposedly new and revolutionary just to discover it's less capable. a bunch of bells and whistles but still unusable. im stuck with a toy. i cant finish any serious work and i own this flagship model. 250 polyphony tri sensor hex layer audio recording 17 track sequencer it's all there. how i fell for it!. and yet who would have thought it will force you to re-record a 23 minute medley again from the top all because one note could not be step edited. Jockey you're a good person u took the time to answer me and explain exhaustively and i truly appreciate it. But unless i hear it straight from the horse's mouth i think you're mistaken. Let's see what Mike Martin and rich formidoni say. I mean the remiss is so stupid’ it’’s unbelievable.. Its almost saying “ i'm a complete and capable machine”.. And In the same breath also saying “nah, just kidding”. You are dead right If they realize this by now the firmware update should at least follow. Pray for the firmware it should be an intelligent easy fix. Otherwise they really shamed the 560 and rendered its gallant attempt to be the perfect all in one self contained production keyboard Casio's greatest unfulfilled destiny.

hello im new here. For a long time i managed on my own and was oblivious to forums. But now ive given up trying to figure out a mystery, so i discovered this community of problem solvers and would truly appreciate any help and response. i just sold my yamaha sy77 and roland xp80 synths from the nineties so i could invest in the px560m which has all the sensation of a full featured production synth far exceeding all the features of those two ( even combined ) i traded up for her, especially in terms of powerful tone generation and midi editing songs, on top of new audio and usb capabilities, and surely it will take me years to explore all of this privia’s powers. but i need help trying to locate the simple step edit functions and single note corrections that were the staple of my production work until now. They also spared me all this time from the intricacies of pc recording and saved me untold studio expense and labor having allowed me to correct mistakes to perfection without re-recording those otherwise perfect takes. who can help me find this basic old school edit in this impressive 17 track synth powerhouse thats now decades more advanced in this mystifying flagship beast that is the pride of Casio?
