Thanks for the input.  I turned up the master volume in the stage setting that helped.

I too have never had issues with hot weather.  It doesn't get to 100+ in southern New England very often but the Px-5s has never faltered.

I have a follow up. I'm running my Casio PX-5S with both line outs to a Behringer Europower Mixer.  Both line outs go into channel 15/16 which allows me to control the whole sound with one knob.  I think go from the Mixer to a Bose L1.

Electric pianos and organs sound amazing through headphones but are quiet and not as warm/vibrant through this set up.  It's also very quiet.  Any suggestions?

Thank you - that was much better.  Lag was significantly less and I was able to add a bass line and then slightly adjust all the notes at once for timing.

Much appreciated!

Is there a way to record a song or a phrase to a midi file?  And is there a way to transfer it to the thumb drive?

What I'm trying to do is record bass lines to go with a beatbuddy drum loop within reaper.  When I tried to record directly from the PX-5S to reaper on my PC, the lag was too much.

I've had my PX5s for 4+ years.  I don't have any issues with key noise either.

Sounds great - keep us posted on your progress!

Thanks so much.  I set it up and can see why the bar is needed.  As Rowboat pointed out, it's not ideal for ease of transporting but it only adds a few minutes to packing up.

Morning,

I just purchased the Casio CS-67 stand for my PX-5S for my home.  Fits perfectly and looks a lot nicer than the x stand I was previously using.

One question - what is the purpose of the metal bar that attaches across the bottom of the PX-5S when using the CS-67?   It doesn't seem to support the keyboard much.

I use a table top stand when gigging and I don't really want to take the bar off each time I pack the PX-5S away.

Thanks for your help.

No internal straps.  Fits but I wouldn't call it snug.  There's a little wiggle room compared to what I've had in the past.  Nothing to worry about though.

Yes to straps.  I use the shoulder strap mostly.

I use the Casio Privia case.  Works perfectly for me but I only bag it up from home to the car.  Padding is perfect for this purpose, very similar to the gator cases I've had.  If I were to take it on a train, I'd probably want a hard case.

I have two ON STAGE KS 7150 stands (road/home-studio)

...good option for a single board (street price $80 US)

I also have this adapter that I use occaionally: .On Stage KSA7575

..a Mic Attachment bar that work with these stands.

..add a gooseneck, and you don't need a floor stand for a mic.

Do you have a picture of where it attaches? I have the attachment bar on my x-stand and it goes through one of the support bar holes (also one for the iPad that goes over the hole).  I don't see where that would fit in the table stand.

Following....curious about single keyboard stands too.  For home and gigs...

Thanks so much - I've been very impressed with the PX-5S so far.  If the weather cooperates, I'll try it out live tonight!

Again, I appreciate your help and will join the facebook group too!

Greetings - I purchased the px-5s last week and am really enjoying "breaking it in".  I forgot how much work can go into adjusting to a new keyboard!

I know I'll have lots more questions but I'm trying to get things ready for a gig on Saturday so any help will be appreciated. 

I've d/l installed Mike Martin's updated stage settings.  The problem I'm having is that the damper pedal doesn;t sustain with some organ sounds.  Is there a way to fix this?

In addition, this happens with some clavs too - I know that the pedal operates as a wah pedal but wasn't sure if when using two pedals, one can be the wah and one can be the sustain.

Thanks for any help.
