Up to this point, I am unaware of any Casiotone using the AIX engine. Those who would know won't tell. Those who would tell, don't know.

Chandler Holloway Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Nothing's up on the Japanese site yet, but I'd keep an eye on it. As I always say, the product pages/manuals will go up over there first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Muscara Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 A web search led me to the Casio euro site, where they use the term high grade for some current Casio products. https://www.casio-music.com/euro/keyboards/ It also shows up on the international (Asia?) site for some existing Casio models. https://www.casio-intl.com/asia/en/emi/high_grade/ It doesn't seem to be a term used here in the U. S. however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are going to demenish their brand by making Casiotone a name for mid range product. I hope they don't but it's on them to do as they choose.

Brad Saucier Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Casiotone series included higher priced models in the past. The current CT-S series is a nod to that history, so it wouldn't be unusual to have some higher priced ones in the current lineup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Random_Vibration Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Sounds like more talk like after NAMM 2021 when Casio showed up empty handed while others had new products to show. Sure, it could be in the pipeline as suggested. Right now, crickets. I had so much faith in the rumor that I bought a Yamaha DX Reface to serve secondary as a MIDI controller (and FM Synth) instead of this alleged high grade Casiotone. The Reface in some respects is a better MIDI controller than high end Casio products for a fraction of the cost. And you get a free FM synthesizer. Breakout cable DIN MIDI In/MIDI Out. A MIDI clock. While Casio is working Casiotone, I'm thinking Yamaha YC-88 or YC-73. Casio, the world awaits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConfusedRedditor16 Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Perhaps it's just the ct-x series? I noticed that the casio india website classifies their wk, and ct-x keyboards as 'High Grade keyboards', over the 'Standard keyboard' range consisting the ctks, and I think it as the japanese website that calls the ct-ks, and ct-xs as casiotones, (the ct does stand for casiotone?), so maybe it was just a confusion about this?

Random_Vibration Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Honestly, I don't know what to think about how Casio brands products in specific regions. All I do know is their new product pipeline seems to the casual observer to be empty. Stuff may be coming but unlike others, they have nothing to show anybody. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
