Casio to Release Advanced Electronic Keyboards Featuring New AiX Sound Source

Main Features of the CT-X5000 and CT-X3000

AiX Sound Source Reproduces the Appealing Sound of Acoustic Instruments

The keyboards provide high-quality tones ranging from powerful bass tones to clear high tones, faithfully reproducing the appealing sound of acoustic instruments including a resonance that corresponds to the strength of each piano keystroke, the sensation of drums, and soaring strings. The user can customize tones to taste using 100 DSP effects that combine various algorithms, three system effects (reverb, chorus, and delay) and 10 equalizer presets.

Wide Range of Tones and Rhythm Patterns Supports Diverse Musical Genres

An extensive library of 800 tones and 235 rhythms supports diverse musical genres, and applications from composition, to arranging, to live performance.

New Audio System Delivers Powerful Sound

The keyboards feature large-magnet bass reflex speakers and a 15W+15W high-output amplifier (maximum output, CT-X5000 model) to deliver powerful sounds whether used at home or performing in a large venue.

Registration Function Enables Saving of Keyboard Setups

The Registration function enables the user to save up to 128 keyboard setups including tones and rhythms. The user can instantly switch between complex playing patterns and tone/rhythm setups without configuring them every time, bringing more versatility to playing.

Composing and Arranging Features Help Bring Ideas to Life

In addition to configuring and saving tones and rhythms to suit the user, the keyboards provide a variety of features for composing and arranging, helping users to bring their ideas to life. Phrase Recorder allows users to record a musical phrase that can be instantly triggered using any of the four pads. The mixer can handle 42 different parts and the 17-track MIDI sequencer can save up to 10 original songs.

Accessory Jacks and Ports for Performing, Composing, and Arranging

An assignable jack can be used with a sustain or expression pedal. Also provided are an audio input jack for connecting external audio equipment, and a USB port for connecting to a computer. The USB port supports memory devices to easily save and load data created on the CT-X5000/X3000.

Friendly User Interface Offers a Wide Range of Applications

The keyboards provide an expanded Registration function and four phrase pads, together with buttons that can directly control Tap Tempo, Transpose, and Octave. The resulting user interface is suitable for stage and live performances, as well as music schools and music classrooms where musicians need to play expressively.

Sophisticated Styling Matches the Advanced Specifications

The powerful speakers are embellished with distinctive red highlights, giving the keyboards a stylish, iconic look. The CT-X5000 is distinguished by a gray metallic finish that adds to the sophisticated styling.
