Richard6504 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Thats my wish too, but i think the problem is the image of the brand Casio in this market. Casio has a very good price quality ratio but can't compete with brands like korg and Yamaha soundwise and also their professional studio effects are from a much higher level. How ever i own a brandnew PSR S775 but in my opinion even the keybed of the Casio CT X 700 offers a much better feel and playability. Well done Casio. I can't wait till the CT X5000 is available in the Netherlands. I will buy it as an extra keyboard. I have heared the CT X 700 and was very impressed soundwise compared to my € 1.049,00 Yamaha PSR S775. Its not better in a absolute way but you have also compare the price and then Casio is the winner for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBradge Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I don't think Casio will ever be doing this in the near future. Remember, it took them 15 years to implement some sort of Mega Voice technology in to their instruments with the MZ-X. 76 keys + touchscreen? No problem. Pro Styles? You mean that are on par with Yamaha's ? Not gonna happen.. Vocal Harmonizor? I doubt they want to do that, and even IF they will do that, i think that it will sound even worse than the VH on the older Tyros.. If they want they could make a Genos competitor for 1/3rd of the price, but that's not where their heart lies, and i don't think they know what to do to get rid of their "Trademark sound" They have surprised us with the MZ-2000, the CT-X and MZ-X range keyboardwise, but apart from that.. I doubt there will be a MZ-X1000 with Genos rivaling features... EVER... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casiokid Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 It would appear Casio's MZ series are LIMITED EDITION models with fifteen years gaps between models ie the MZ-2000 vs MZ-X500/300 These models are fast becoming collectors items -What an investment !

TheBradge Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I wouldn't call the MZ-2000 a collectors item.. The MZ-2000 is worth less in Holland than a KN-2000 by Technics. You can pick a MZ-2000 up for $150-200 here.. I know Casio has some nice stuff up their sleeves, and it would be bad if they didn't do anything with that, but you know.. It's not their game, the TOTL arranger bussiness.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvano Silva Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Casio could be launching a great Synthesizer. A blend line FZ CZ and sampler features. Top Level Keyboards to Brand. Aftertouch Analog Simulated Synthesis 1gb Sampler without Preloads. Advanced Pad Editing verses 61 76 88 keys Updateable Dedicated metronome output Gm2 compatibility Importing SF2 files XLR microphone input There are so many ideas for the arrangers that I will leave for another time.
