![]() Even in the PX-5S - the piano is actually very good but everything else is pushed into a razor blade sounds without any depth. You can add some EQ and bring it back somehow but why bother. No matter how you plug it out, it is EQ that way and come out thin like a paper and really annoying. So the sound is artificial sounding even if single key may sound good alone, playing two keys that use the same sample makes it sound synthy.Īs for the sound itself, I believe the Casio department must employ deaf people in their R&D that can hear only bass sounds and so everything in casio "fun" line is biased towards high-mids! Everything. On CTK this would be far more keys per sound than on Privia (where it is between 2 and 4 depending how far you are from center. You can't get any proper dynamics on CTK keyboard and so even if the sampling of piano is good, you can't get the sound out.Īs for samples, they do use multi-stroke samples but even on privias they are sample groups so a single sound is used for few neighbors keys. The CDP line has better keyboard, the privia has the best. The first problem with CTK line - keyboard is just awful. ![]() And all the functions are like that and you have to discover how it works because reading manual makes no sense.īut enough. In xw-p1 for example one of the synth oscillator is an external line in - so you can play external source like mp3 or sing in mic and the system will transpose it realtime to what you play on KBD and you actually have some sort of vocoder out there - but they don't even call it vocoder - they don't even realize they have vocoder. And so they would produce a square wheel and by definition you get really weird and quirky stuff. Whenever they produce something out of the toy line like the xw-p1 it almost feels like they were reinventing the wheel from scratch and never bothered to look how other wheels look like. I am actually casio fan, but not because of the sound or anything tangible - it is awful - I just like the quirkiness of their research department. For iOS, you'll typically need one of Apple's "camera adapters" (which are USB adapters). For Windows, people often find they need an external interface. For a Mac, as mentioned, just a USB printer cable typically will do. There are software options that are cheap or even free, though you may need some other hardware to make the connections. As for how easy (or "plug and play") it is, iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch will be easiest, then Mac, then Windows.
