It took me a little while to figure out how this works, but essentially one of the "Items" you can configure when creating a new User Tone on the CT-X5000 is a DSP setup. But you can't create them from scratch, you have to "copy" one that is already built into the system, and you can edit its internal parameters from there (maybe that's a feature available on Workstations?). You can copy a DSP either from one of the built-in Tones (not all of them have a DSP, though), or from a set of 100 DSP "standard" setups (not associated with any Tone) that are outlined in the Appendix document. But as you are trying to select a DSP to use, it's not always easy to tell what you're getting. So just to have all the information in one place as a handy reference, I created this document that shows all of the possible DSPs you can copy into a new User Tone, and which DSP sub-Modules (up to 4) that each contains, and in what order. For more information, see my additional notes on the last page of the document. Comments, questions, and suggestions welcome!

CT-X3000 with firmware 1.09 When will this firmware be available for the CT-X3000/5000 on the Casio website?

I managed to add the DSP effect on tone 764 EX Standard Kit.

I have just created a audio track by using Casio CT-X5000, MZ-X500, PX-5S, XW-G1 and other models that are Pa4X and Genos. All the Tones and Rhythms are played by using Casio keyboards. Then I put all the things in daw and remixed and mastered it to make the sound experience bit high as much as possible. Now, Kick is used by Pa4X and MZ-X's Dance Kick which is also used in Old 1st gen Electropop rhythm. Marimba tone is used by Genos and rest all the things are played and selected by Casio Keyboards. Like, Rhythm is fully played by MZ-X500 Plucks are selected from CT-X5000 Pads are Played from XW-G1 And Last but not the least... Piano is played from PX-5S... Also, Vocals are selected and played from MZ-X500 All the functions are one-by-one recorded on MZ-X500 by connect the keyboard one-by-one via Insert In Stereo Terminals... As Wave is more pure then MP3, that's why MZ-X did a best job on every recording scenario. And my personal experience of recording on MZ-X500 is better the even Pa4X or Genos! After recording all the things I got 93 TAKES of wave file, and I puts it on the daw then remixed and mastered it. And here is the final result: This the the link of the video Also, Please Subscribe the channel and Like the video. 🙂

Casio Key - CT-X5000.mp3

EP and drum.mp3

All instruments were played in real time, except the drums and percussion instruments which were edited in the rhythm editor and recorded in the CT-X5000's sequencer. The vibraphone is recorded on Phrase Pad 1. Sorry for the audio quality. Piano, strings, violin, drums, brazilian pandeiro, triangle, timpani, vibraphone and percussions. Rhythm Maracatu.m4a

I want to synchronize Phrase playback with rhythm by pressing the Start button, but it is not stored in the registration bank.

I want to change the banks and tones of the VST KORG Triton or Triton Extreme via the CT-X5000 registration buttons.

Depois que formatei o teclado para as configurações de fábrica, todos os timbres que contém o piano tem um som estranho, nada parecido com o timbre em si. Mas queria saber se isso é erro de fábrica ou algo que se pode concertar?

I used a simple rhythm that I created, just variation 1. Chords and melodies: Upper 1: 029 Upper 2: 035 Synth: 267 Bass: User Tone Drums: 771 4a

Just got my CT-X3000 and have been in the forums grabbing tones, software and other support docs. I stumbled on this post which included a downloadable PDF "song book". But the PDF is password protected. Is this an error? And if not, how is the password attainable? (e.g.: is it a purchase? and, if so, where can I buy it?) I noted that in the comments, UK users had this problem in the past. But I'm in the States.

Does the CASIO PX-S3000 have the same sound quality of the same tones as the CASIO CT-X5000?

Does the CASIO CT-X5000 have the same sound quality of the same tones as the CASIO PX-S3000?

Hello everyone, I was listening to some music of Ennio Morricone the other day, I whistle and love a lot of his music and am looking to reproduce the electric guitar he uses, linked to the piece with the timestamp: like this (linked to the timestamp) : I do not know a lot about guitars, so I need some help Identifying the kind of guitar it is, and chosing a tone and what parameters I'll have to edit to replicate that guitar. Thanks a lot!

I really wanted to see CASIO add the 4 basic parameters of tone editing, attack time, release time, cutoff and resonance in the first four rhythm category buttons as a shortcut to those parameters and use the dial to change those 4 parameters in real time, without having to enter the sound editing menu to use those parameters. It would be like that, in the settings there would be a way to change the function of the buttons of the rhythmic category. For example, when pressing the first button in the rhythm category, the word "Atk.Time" was already displayed on the screen for a few seconds, then just use the dial to change the Attack Time in real time on the tone. Pops = Attack Time Rock = Cutoff Jazz / Trad = Release World / Country = Resonance

Recently, @Chandler Holloway uploaded an archive with all the original, non-edited rhythms of the CT-X3000. Today, just for fun, I decided to upload some of these rhythms to the CT-X800. I thought that they would not sound good at all or at least, that they would behave stangely, since the mapping of voices is different. Well, the result is interesting, to say the least. Actually these CT-X3000 rhythms sound perfectly fine on the CT-X800 - they don’t need any conversion at all. I thus decided to make a little experiment. I choose a rhythm which is present BOTH on the CT-X3000 and the CT-X800, DancePop (rhythm no 34 on the CT-X800). I pressed the « rhythm » button to get the default settings which go together with this rhythm (tempo at 122). I then stored all the settings in Slot 1 of Memory Bank 8. I copied these settings a second time in Slot 2 of the same bank. The following thing I did was uploading the CT-X3000 version of DancePop (labelled Dance Pop X3000 in Chandler’s archive) to one of the 10 user rhythm slots of the CT-X800 and I selected that rhythm and stored it in slot no 2 of bank 8. I then played successively both versions of the rhythm at the same tempo. I started with slot 1 and played Intro, Variation 1, fill 1, Variation 2, fill 2, Variation 2, ending. I then switched to slot 2 and did the same thing. Both versions of the rhythm sounded exactly the same, excepted that variation 2 and fill 2 were a bit different in both versions. Actually, when the rhythm controller is set to variation 1, switching from slot 1 to slot 2 and back, both rhythms are sounding totally identical. I then repeated this process with a few other rhythms, (e.g. DiscoPop, no 36 on the CT-X800, DiscoPop X3000 in Chandler’s archive) which are present both on the CT-X3000 and the CT-X800. Each time, I got the same result: when played at the same tempo, the intro, ending, variation 1 and fill 1 sounded exactly the same in both versions of the rhythm, but fill 2 and variation 2 were somewhat different (the second variation of the CT-X800 seems to be more complex than the second variation of the CT-X3000 version of the rhythm). Now, what does this mean??? 1) Most probably, ALL rhythms from the CT-X3000/5000 are fully readable by the CT-X700/800 without any tweaking. This will probably also be true for all user-programmed rhythms, such as the BradShuffle rhythm programmed for themCT-X5000 by @Brad Saucier, which my CT-X800 could read without further ado. 2) Variation 2 on the CT-X700/800 is probably variation 4 on the CT-X3000/5000. It means that all CT-X700/800 owners now have access to three fills and three variations of the 4-variations, 4-fills CT-X3000/5000 rhythms: variation 1 and fill 1, which are the same on all four keyboards ; variation 2 and fill 2 of the CT-X3000/5000 version of the rhythm ; and variation 4 and Fill 4 of the CT-X3000/5000 version, which are actually variation 2 and fill 2 on the CT-X700/800. Are you still following me, guys?... 3) Thus, the only missing rhythm parts are variation 3 and Fill 3 of the CT-X3000 version. If someone were willing to save all the CT-X3000/5000 rhythms after having swapped variations and fills 1 and 2 with variations and fills 3 and 4, CT-X700/800 users would actually have access to all four variations and fills of all the CT-X rhythms! They would only have to store one permutation in one register memory slot, and the other permutation in an adjacent slot, and they could use all parts of the rhythm instead of being limited to one intro, two variations, two fills, one ending. 4) I cannot try this out because I do not own this keyboard, but I strongly suspect that all the aforementioned will also be applicable to the CDP-S350 as a bonus! This is be great because this would effectively mean that this cheap 88 arranger piano would actually have access to 4-variation rhythms I stead of 2-variation rhytms now. 5) I am strongly suspecting that the AiX chip found in all four keyboards (and the CDP-S350) is actually the one and same chip, it is only the UI of each keyboard and the control panel which is different. Someone having both keyboard at home could test this even further: playing some CT-X3000/5000 rhythms on the bigger keyboard, then on the smaller keyboard, to listen whether there are any differences. If the rhythms sound perfectly similar on both the CT-X3000/5000 and the CT-X700/800, it means that both chips are exactly the same! Further, this would also mean that the sound set is the same on both keyboards, but that on the CT-X700/800, some of the sounds are not accessible from the control panel. Or else, it would mean that for maximal compatibility, the rhythms on both keyboards are using the smaller sound set, that of the CT-X700/800. Or, last possibility, that when a rhythm uses a sound which is not present on the CT-X700/800, this keyboard is programmed to replace the missing sound by the nearest sound instead. This would seem fairly logical: in this fashion, when a programmer at Casio is producing a new rhythm for the CT-X series of keyboards, she/he would need to program it once and it would be perfectly usable for all 4 keyboards without any conversion needed. So convenient, so simple. So guys what are you thinking of all this? Has anybody made further experiments in this matter? And what about the localised versions (Indian, Chinese, ...j of these keyboards? I am really curious to know. Regards.

Just new here, wanted to know the basics functions of this keyboard. 1. How to save a tone (or layered tone) on a "Bank" or in a slot of the 16 slots sequencer (that has Casio CT-X5000) ? => i have thought, that u could save it on Registry, but Presets (Piano, Organ etc) were already registered ! So, how to delete the Registry 2 (Organ), and Create your own preset instrument on it ? 2. For creating a song, i dont understand how u should proceed ? a) does a song consists of many "Phrases" that you add in a sequently order ? b) does "Phrase" is a part of song where u can record the Left hand, then come back for the Right hand ? Like, u can create, then modify those parts as long as u want ? Or is it recorded just once ? 3. When u created your song, can u record/save somewhere in the Keyboard ? a) how to proceed for that ? (coz got many ideas, and want to save them, so i can freed my mind for new ideas and keep working safely) 3. For layered-tones, how many banks can u use simultaneously while you are playing ? coz was thinking of using (Piano+string) Bank 1, (Guitar+Bass) Bank 2 and (Vocals+Saxophone) Bank 3 Is it possible ? and ofc, could i just use Bank 1 & 2, then switch to 3, and do just Bank 1 & 3 ? ====> Just asking those for Banks, coz in my Old Yamaha, u had 16 Bank Slots, ( 8 dedicated for Drum kits Accomp, and the other remaining 8 Banks where for your USE ). Then within those 8 banks offered, u could only select a maximum of 3 Banks simultaneoustly All u had to do, is simply press the 3 Bank (sequencer main panel) and just play. So, was wandering if you could have a similar system with the Casio CT-X5000 Need your Help, and just feel free to post useful advices, THANKS !

So I found this gooey glue like substance that's wet under my keybed, I got my x9000IN just two days ago, but noticed this only today, it was visible in the gap between the keys and the fabric under it. Theres some drops of it undet the 5th octave keys. Is it normal or is it something the store did to it before selling it to me? Should I send it back? VID_20210118_121946.mp4

Just got my CT-X9000IN ! The key action blew me away when I tried it at the store, I've played ctk-7200s and ctk-3200s at my music school, but this feels much softer. I hope the keys don't get noisy with time (welp). The voices are pretty amazing too, as I upgraded from a 4-octave keyboard. The aix chip does make a huge difference I guess, the grand (001)'s lowest octaves sound so much more... complete than the ctks. Started reading the user manual :), is there I way I can set the touch sensitivity level and some other functions so that it doesn't go to default when I turn the keyboard off and on? I saved in onto a registeration, but it would be nice if I could switch the default setting.

I am trying to experiment with Rhythm Editing on my CT-X5000, and have hit a roadblock that I hope someone can help me with. In the manual on page EN-76, there is an illustration (bottom in the right column) that essentially says an Accompaniment Pattern can be copied from another Rhythm into the User Area (one of the User Rhythm slots, 294-343) and then edited, including the ability to "add and delete unwanted notes in real time". But the snag that I'm running into is this - I'm able to copy a Pattern just fine, but when I try to edit it, it always says "Fixed" and will not let me into Edit mode. I should point out that this is the case when I copy from one of the built-in rhythms. If I copy a Pattern from a User Rhythm that I created myself, it does instead show "Recorded", and lets me edit it. But even if I copy from a built-in rhythm to a User rhythm, then copy that User rhythm to another User rhythm, that Part still shows as "Fixed". I do realize that I can create additional drum and/or accompaniment notes in that Pattern, by adding them to another Part (percussion, chords), as long as that part is empty. And of course, I can choose to copy only specific Parts, leaving other Parts empty and editable. So, despite the implication in the manual, is it the case that you cannot edit (notewise) any Part (percussion/drum/bass/chords) that was originally sourced from a built-in accompaniment rhythm? There's no way to make an "editable" copy? The only option is to use them "as is", and add things "on top" of them in other Parts? As I finish writing this, it occurs to me that I haven't tried copying into a User Rhythm, saving that User Rhythm to USB, and then reloading it. I'm not sure if that would make any difference?
