Casiokid Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 Does anyone know what songs the Casio arrangers had in mind with some the POP Presets? I've guessed at a few, here's my attempt but please comment and let's help fill-in my queries and for everyone. Someone in Casio Tokyo must know all these, but perhaps they're 'gagged' for copyright reasons? POP Presets: 001 Soft Pop ??? 002 Winter Pop ??? 003 Oldies Pop ??? 004 Alpine Flora = Edelweiss 005 Gypsy =We've got to get you a woman ? 006 Rain Pop= Rain drops keep falling on my head 007 Movie Waltz Lara's theme Dr Zhivago 008 Funky Pop=Respect 009 Love Pop =You can't hurry love 010 60's Pop= The Loco Motion 011 Rising Sun=House of the rising Sun 012 Pop Ska =Ob La Di Ob La Da 013 Weep Blues=While my guitar gently weeps ? 014 Cartoon ? 015 Carol ??? 016 My Life ??? 017 Blue Love =Love love my love is blue? 018 Xmas Pop ??? 019 Shuffle Pop1=Day dream believer 020 Shuffle Pop2=They long to be close to you (Carpenters) 021 70's Soul =What's going on 022 70's Pop ??? 023 West Coast =Hotel California 024 Bossa Pop=Just the way you are -Joel 025 Radio Pop ??? 026 Crazy Roll ??? 027 80's Pop1 ??? 028 80's Pop2 ??? 029 UK Pop1 030 UK Pop2 031 A Feeling=What a feeling -flashdance? 032 Calling ??? 033 80's Euro Pop ??? 034 the World ??? 035 Mexican Pop ??? 036 Guitar Pop ??? 037 90's pop 038 Wonder ??? 039 Modern Pop 1 040 Modern Pop 2 041 MdmPop Rock 042 / 043 / 044/ 045 -I 've never understood what these are for???

Casiokid Posted August 17, 2016 Author Posted August 17, 2016 (edited) Spot -on drb32856 the chords check ! Thanks Edited August 17, 2016 by Casiokid Excuse bad spelling Quote
Joe Muscara Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Since Funky Pop is Respect on the CGP-700, I would guess that's what it is on the MZ-X. But I've never heard the MZ-X version so I could be way off. 1 Quote
AlenK Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 One of them is "Just The Way You Are" by Billy Joel. There is another Billy Joel song in there too but I can't remember which one nor can I remember which presets. Note: I'm basing this on the presets in the PX-560, which are a subset of those in the MZ-X instruments. But I'm not near it right now to check. 2 Quote

degaff Posted August 18, 2016 Posted August 18, 2016 I don't have my keyboard yet - but I would guess that 15 Carol would be "Sweet Caroline" by Neil Diamond and that 16 My Life would be the Billy Joel tune "My Life" Quote
AlenK Posted August 19, 2016 Posted August 19, 2016 "My Life". Yes, indeed. That's the Billy Jorl song on there I couldn't remember. Quote
Rick Stirling Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Only preset I've figured out so far is 092 My Swing = All of Me All Of Me.pdf Quote
jpm47 Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Latin rock2 in latin presets with new Pop cha cha rhythm and proper chords is pretty good for Sade Smooth Operator. As it comes with latin rock rhythm it seems to me close to Carlos Santana Smooth. Quote
Smark Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 Latin rock2= smooth by Santana ft rob Thomas. I hear this song everyday at work. Lol Quote
Smark Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 56Bb girl= Barbie girl by aqua 51disco lady= dancing queen by ABBA 59into your h= can't get u outta my head by Kylie minogue 58lady jam= promiscuous by nelly furtado????? 52staying. Staying alive. Beegees 268peace. Imagine. John Lennon 263. Wonderful. What wonderful Louis Armstrong 35 Mexican pop. La bamba. Ricky vallens??? Quote
Smark Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 32 calling. It never rains in Southern California don't know who sings it Quote
Smark Posted December 27, 2016 Posted December 27, 2016 80s euro pop is killing me. I know I know it Quote
G777 Posted June 15, 2018 Posted June 15, 2018 I am so glad I found this post ! Got myself my first Casio keyboard CT-X3000 and stumbled across this puzzle: what each song title means in Music Preset List ? Can figure couple of them, but most is not descriptive at all. I just sent e-mail to Support asking if they can provide more information. Is some body willing to post update list, so we can can move from there ? Quote

vbdx66 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Hi, are the music presets of the CT-X keyboards the same as on the MZ-X boards? It could be useful to make a list as complete as possible for all the songs, for personal enjoyment as well as for education purposes. If the list is the same on both line of keyboards then I am in (or at least if the same"cryptic" names on the MZ-X and on the CT-X are referring to the same songs). I'll post my findings here. Regards. Quote

Deaf ears Posted September 8, 2019 Posted September 8, 2019 Sorry folks, I have been advised to remove my list. 2 Quote
