Hi guys! I enjoy with my new CT-X5000 and really love the gear. Now trying to make it work with the PC (I use Sonar Home Studio). Everything is great, and I even attached my Novation Launchkey MINI MIDI controller's knobs to edit CT-X5000 sounds on the fly (filter, vibrato, EG, portamento etc). But there is a problem. The manual indicates, that sounds, controlled by external MIDI source, use their own separate block of effects (Reverb/Chorus/Delay) - a so called System Effects 2. So I can only change depth of these effects (CC#91,#93, #94), but I can't change effects' type. When I enter into a [SET] menu on the CT-X5000, it changes only System Effects 1 (used for keyboard/style playing, but not for external MIDI). Any ideas how to reach System Effects 2 block and switch there Rev/Cho/Delay type for external MIDI? System Exclusives? NRPNs? Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to save PX-560 MIDI settings? I hate hi-res MIDI always ON -
Hello all, I have a very old Casio CTK 611 with midi outputs. I have a midi cable to USB. When I plug it in the midi cable lights up, and my Win 10 computer does indicate that a USB2.0 midi device is connected, and my music program (Sibelius 7.5) sees that device, but I can not get Sibelius to receive midi input from my keyboard (the test fails). I am assuming that my keyboard is way too old to work with Win 10 and there probably are not any compatible drivers. I just want to be sure before I sink money in a replacement keyboard. The midi cable that I have is a Sanoxy USB MIDI Cable Converter and has a dual in/out 5-pin DIN and a USB on the other end. I have searched the internet for possible answers, and have not had success. Any ideas?

I have an old casio wk-1630 keyboard that I have had my entire life that I was wanting to do some music production with using FL Studio 10. I recently bought a MIDI to USB cable off of amazon and was told that it was plug and play. I sort of expected that I would have to jump through some hurdles because it's an older model keyboard, but I have seen people online use that keyboard to record things into their programs. At first I thought that it would be a driver issue, but I was told by casio themselves that the keyboard didn't have a driver I had to install on my computer. Has anyone ever used this keyboard to record and had the same issues as I have? If someone could shed some light on what I'm doing that would be great. I have attached some pictures of my keyboard so you guys can get a better understanding of what I'm working with. Thanks.

Hi! I have a problem because I have created a MIDI performance and I want to move it to my CTK-6200 Keyboard, but I dont want to move it to the SD card, I want to move it into the Keyboard memory, but the Keyboard only accepts CMS files. The Casio software SMF convertor only can convert to CM2 files so it does not function in my case. Is it some tool or It is some way to convert that midi file to CMS?.The software that I used to create the MIDI performance allowed me to make the song compatible with my Keyboard Instruments. The problem is that I need it in CMS.

This is my second question for the day so please bear with me. I will give a break down of how I went about layering different midi recordings. 1. Tone: Grand piano, I made a recording for about 30 seconds. 2. Once I was done with the 'first recording' I pressed the record button again but this time I chose a different 'system track'. (Tone being drums now) I pressed onto the play button and the piano piece I recorded started to play and along this I started adding some beats. 3. I stopped and listened to the recording, the piano was playing along with the beats. And I found this to be great. The issue that I found out was that, when I transferred the 'midi recording (with the beats)' onto my pen-drive and tried to use it on my FL studio. The keys played for the beats were coming up as piano keys and the piano piece that I 'first (initially)' recorded doesn't even play. So I'm quite confused as to what I should do in order to layer piano keys and beats (basically different tones) and make it sound the same when I transfer it as a file. Please help me out. Thanks :))

Hi ! After I've made my recording on midi, and when I save (or transfer) it to my pen-drive , it gets saved as ".ZMF" Due to this, I cannot import this recorded midi file into the software I use as it requires a ".MID" and several other types which do not include the ".ZMF" Please provide assistance on how to overcome this issue Thank you :)) FIRST.ZMF

I have a CTK-6250 and I'm curious... While I have midi notes coming to the keyboard from my computer, I can change the voice using my software. I understand banks and programs etc. Everything works fine. But is there a way to change the voice from the Casio keyboard? It seems the voice on the display only corresponds to the local keyboard input, not to external midi notes. It would be easier to audition different sounds locally rather than fiddling with menus on my computer. Any ideas?

Hi. As the new owner of a Px560 (coming from a Yamaha MOX8 I want to use an Organ simulator on my iPad controlled via the 560. Iwant to be able to control the volume of the iPad and , for example, turn the piano volume to zero on the Privia whilst I assign a control knob to turn up the iPad organ whilst I use it.i thought it was a simple matter of assigning one of the control knobs to MIDI volume but it doesn’t seem to work. Does anyone have any ideas on how I could do this? It seems so simple in principle but I just can’t seem to nail it! Any help appreciated. (I connect via a Korg key to the iPad rig). Thanks in advance.

Hi, this is my first enquiry on the Casio board. I am considering buying a PX560M but I need it to do the following via MIDI. I play bass pedals and I'd like to be able to trigger the onboard bass sounds on the 560 via MIDI-In (probably on a different MIDI Channel Number) while playing other sounds on the keyboard itself. Is this possible ? At present I use a separate 'old' Boss sound module for the Acoustic Bass and i would like to reduce my set-up times and the wiring nightmare by just plugging the pedals into the 560 and getting access to more bass sounds. Thanks in advance.

I've been going in circles for months trying to get reaper to send MIDI bank/program changes to my xwp1. Anyone successfully had theirs receive changes while in performance mode? I could use some help.

Hi all - I dig my PX 560 and enjoy lurking around this forum. I've got a Yamaha Motif Rack MIDI'd to my PX-560, but every time I change presets on the PX, it also arbitrarily changes presets on the Yamaha. Anyone know how to bypass those midi commands? Thanks! Phil

Hello there I am recording my new stuff with Privia and doing it first time using MIDI recording section. Since I have no satisfactory VSTs on my PC, I'd rather use Privia's interface and then work on it further. I like to work on some tones but later I often change them, when all paths and items are recorded and put together to change overall sound and blend. So my questio is: Is there a way to CHANGE TONE OF ALREADY RECORDED 'solo track' in Privia's MIDI interface? It would be helpful as hell. I even hoped for changing in 'on fly' to hear how the tone changes the piece. But I cannot find answer in internet or manual :/ Thanks in advance -
I could swear I remember there is a way to play all the MIDI files on an SD Card sequentially but don't recall how? Maybe I'm thinking of a different keyboard? Anyone know? I know you can press the PLAY/STOP & PART/SELECT BUTTONS together for a playback of a sequence of demos** I thought there was also a way to get that to happen with the midi contents of the external SD Card? TIA -
When I save a multi-track MIDI recording as SMF, it doesn't seem to included the system track & rhythm accomp. when I load the file into MusicEditor 3.1 on my Windows 10 laptop. Tracks 1-16 show up fine. I suspect the system track is 17 and therefore not recognized. Is there a way to either move the system track or otherwise have it show up in a MIDI editor?

Hey guys I have been wanting to expand my rig a bit and am having some issues. I am using a 2012 macbook pro running mac OS high sierra and using a usb cord to connect my px-5s to the macbook pro via usb 2.0 however my mac is not showing my px-5s at all. I have tried a few different things such as replacing my usb cord as it was a bit old and restarting my mac.I am also running the latest version of the px-5s firmware v1.13 I am still however having this same issue. It seems as if the two are not communicating at all. Is this a compatability issue? Am I doing something incorrectly? Would the midi in/out to usb be the way to fix this? Please help.

So I use a Roland pk-5a as a midi pedal board with my Px5s. Is there anyway to trigger phrases with the pedal board? I know the pk-5a is a little outdated and of course its Roland so I'm not sure if that limits my capabilities. I do use it to play low tones to fill in the low end when switching from bass guitar to keys, so the pedals definitely communicate with the keyboard.. However you can only play one zone through the pedals which kind of bums me out. Anyways I haven't found a way to trigger phrases through the pedals yet so I'm hoping this is possible. Really wish Casio made some sort of version of Taurus pedals that could play all 4 zones.. That would be amazing lol

Hello, I have a CASIO LK-45 keyboard with a MIDI in/out port. I am pretty tired of the pre-loaded songs in the song bank. I was wondering if I could load MIDI songs onto the keyboard to save to play from the song bank and have the keyboard lights light up, so I can follow along? Or do they have something where I can hook up my laptop to the keyboard and have the keyboard light up to follow along to play a MIDI song without downloading to the keyboard? Would I need a music software program to do this and which one is good? Or could I just go to a website and buy or get a MIDI song that will light up the keys once I have my MIDI cable all hooked up? Sorry for all the quetions, but just would like to learn to play a few new songs from the lighted keyboard. Thanks, Steve
