PAULD

I bought my CTK-7200 five years ago chiefly due to a review that called it a "poor man's Hammond". I've enjoyed playing it every day and enjoyed making adjustments to all the effects available to the rotary speakers and drawbars. I truly appreciate all the work the members have done to give me a work around but I find it to complicated for me to put together so I am returning my CT-X3000 today and continue being a happy CTK-7200 player. Again my sincere thanks for all the input. Regards, Paul

Thank you Brad, I appreciate your time and effort. Paul

Ok Chandler, I appreciate your time and effort. Paul

Example: I have a user tone in 810 and I make changes to the 810 tone, how do I save the changes and over write tone 810 and not create a new tone in 811? Thank you you for your time and consideration. Paul

Thank you, you've been a great help, Paul

So where do you set the Casio WK7500 (and probably on other Casio's) rotary speeds to duplicate the Leslie. A SLow speed setting (37) matches up nicely with the aprox 40 RPM's the actual horn speed of the Leslie. Low notes on the Casio seem to rotate in the opposite direction from high notes as what actually happens in the Leslie. A Casio Fast Speed setting of (115) gives the 300+ RPM of the actual Leslie but the sound results for most upper notes played sounds like you are in front of a window fan! A setting of (97) gives a more natural Leslie sound. Edited text from a Leslie Service Manual. Adjust the SLOW SPEED Trimmer of the HORN to the standard value of 40 RPM. Turn the FAST SPEED Trimmer of the HORN to the standard value of 400 RPM. From the table below you can match Leslie speeds to the approximate CASIO RPM value. So, Fast on the Casio would equate to approximately 70 RPM and the slow would be 30 RPM. The time setting from slow to fast speeds should be 8 to 10 seconds. The comparison speed table was put together by a Forum member VORBIS five years ago. Copy of Rotary Table.pdf

I used this forum five years ago and you folks were kind enough to get me started on the joy of playing my CTK-7200. Now after one week I find the learning curve on the CTX-3000 to be as steep. What I'd like to know is: 1) Get into the DSP and adjust all aspects of the rotary function and save those settings so that they apply to all tones that emulate a drawbar organ tone. Also save Chorus 2 to be applied to all organ tones as well or at least apply to tone 80 ElecOrg 3. 2) Have the sustain pedal used as a switch between fast and slow rotary speeds. 3) Save these setting so that when powered on the keyboard loads them automatically along with tone 80 ElecOrg 3. 4) Which combination of tones and effects can I set that could possibly make the 3000 sound like the baddest pipe organ it can be? My many thanks in advance for any and all help, Paul

I have been using Jubilee Cleaner for cleaning the grime off the the keys on organs and keyboards since the 60's. It was made by Johnson's Wax. Johnson discontinues Jubilee in 1984 and now Jubilee is made by Malco Products under license from Johnson's Wax. Use sparingly to restore slipperiness to keys making the keys feel wonderful. One bottle will last a couple of lifetimes. Enjoy! https://www.amazon.com/Jubilee-Kitchen-Cleaning-Wax-Appliances/dp/B00WZSRXSM/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1BSZWTLNFKW0H&keywords=jubilee+kitchen+wax+and+cleaner&qid=1561172934&s=gateway&sprefix=Jub%2Caps%2C199&sr=8-3

on CTK7200 I have found rotary speeds of 40 for slow and 88 for fast best matches the Leslie tone cabinet

Thanks, Ted: I'll suffer through as I am not inclined to purchase a higher end product. Have a great 2018. Paul

CTK7200 I notice that the piano hammer sound varies among piano voice settings ie Stereo Grand and Dance Piano. I tried adjusting the DSP comp with no luck. Is there a way to lower/soften the hammer sound for a particular Piano voice? Thanks

Hi Ted, thanks for your input on this topic. Two and a half years ago you helped me a great deal on the in's and outs of configuring the various settings on the 7200 which I still use and play today. Newbies would be lost without. Good to see your name again. Stay well and healthy. Regards, Paul

Found a video proving instructions for setting up a sweet sounding Stereo Grand Piano. Here you go, enjoy!

On the CTK 7200, I play from sheet music, tunes from the 40's and 50's. I can't play without sheet music. Can someone direct me in how/when to use the arpeggios when playing from sheet music? Or, is the arpeggio used only in an arranger/composition application? Thank you for your time and consideration. Paul
