Naturally Scaled Hammer Action Keys
Feel and action of keys are similar to a grand Piano. It has a heavier fell in the lower range and a lighter feel in the high range just like an acoustic piano. To help insure the longevity of this action Casio does not use springs. Instead, Casio’s action is provided by “hammer weight” for a truly authentic feel.

Touch Sensitive (Touch Response) (with on/off)
Like a piano, the harder you strike a key the louder and brighter the sound. Allows for more expressive playing.

Preset Tones

Split

Layer
Stacks two sounds together across the entire range of the keyboard, so both will sound on each key.

Song Memory
Songs with multiple instrumental parts can be recorded directly into the keyboard.

Demo Songs
