After some very "fast" investigation it seems to me that the slowness is due to the protocol. Actually the PX-5S does not send a single packet of bulk data, but a huge amount of packets and some handshaking is needed so possibly the Casio send a packet, the PC receive dat packet and confirm to the Casio the reception so that the Casio can send another packet. This happens for hundred of time per tone, so probaly the slowness is due to this protocol. So, to me the slowness is not due to the Qt (which is however slow ***and ugly***) but to the complicated protocol, which, however, has the advantage to be quite solid. It is not trivial to make another editor unless more information regarding the protocol are provided. I will try to ask Casio if it is possible to have more details regarding this. Luigi

Well, actually I don't like the user interface. I have to scroll the windows to access all the controls which is unnecessary because the amount of parameters to change can fit well in the main window. Also some speed-up buttons to easily create spli/layes or to copy/paste programs. Finally I'm unable to find how to modify waveforms in tones. Probably waveforms are accessible somewhere in the editor, but I cannot find it. I've puchased the piano few days ago and I haven't used the editor very much, so I'm interested in having opinions from other users. As for the USB port it may be that the 1.1 speed is due to PX limitations, not to the editor: maybe the Casio USB port is a 1.1 USB port.... Luigi

I've just purchased a PX-5S and I'm not impressed by the editor too. Maybe I'll try to do it by myself, I've already done one for the Novation A-Station and a Waldorf microQ. What do you think it should do that the actual one is not able to do?
