You forgot to mention not only the handel but you can put a guitar strap as well on both sides its like a Keytar style playing thats why I love this keyboard.. :)

Casio didn't "steal" your handle idea, they merely permanently borrowed it! Using the pedal for rhythm fills is really cool.

We just got our son one of these for his upcoming Bday. He plays his Yamaha DGX-650 in his room, but taking an 88 key composition keyboard with you on the fly was a no go. Seems like Casio did good on this one. Fingers crossed

Yep, he might even find that many of the sounds on the Casio are superior to the DGX.

Hi Glynn nice vid as usual. Very useful tricks for the CT-S400. I think that all of them apply to the CT-X800, too, excepted for the Surround function and the ability to set different pitch-bend values for the layered sounds. A remark in passing: the pedal you’re referring to is a sustain pedal, not an expression pedal. P On most Casio arrangers, the sustain pedal can be used 1) to sustain the sound, obviously 2) to go from one rhythm section to the next 3) to hold the arpeggiator. The expression pedal, on the other hand, can be used 1) to change the volume while playing e.g. for organ sounds 2) to activate the modulation on some sounds. Unfortunately, it is not possible to use an expression pedal with the CT-S400.

Quite right! Another slip of the tongue by me, it was indeed a sustain pedal I was using, not an expression pedal :)

An interesting thing to note.. Everyone talks about the 'handle' formed in the back of the unit... but in the manual (where it talks about attaching a strap) it mentions that 'The recessed area on the bottom of the Digital Keyboard IS NOT intended to be used as a handle." ... Other than it being a bit "shallow", making it easier to drop the unit, I don't really see why they would go to the trouble of explicitly saying to not use that area as a "handle"....

I think they say that to protect themselves legally in the even of accidental dropping/breaking the keyboard.

I wonder what drum / rhythm setting is at 1:58. I seem to be overlooking that. The sound quality here is great too (maybe using an equalizer).

Can you do a video about the multi track recorder on this keyboard?
@gurgisjones1120

I don't think it is a multi-track recorder. Just seems to record what you feed it, but doesn't seem to allow multi-tracking.

You need to set the pedal to "Sustain". Sostenuto is different I think.

Slightly. It's a great sound engine, very bright and professional, but the actual sounds are not that exciting. Yamaha still dominates the market.

Sounds nice, but where is the 5 pin din midi sockets for allowing us to use this as an actual midi recording keyboard? Not everyone wants to lug around a computer just to record midi from the keys or to the keys.. Maybe Im wrong or maybe Im old skool, but I love me some midi action baby!! grand :-P

Send the right message to Casio- pay the extra $50 for the CT-X3000. The new CT-S line is a step backwards.

power supply will always be 5V 1A max...just like a PC USB. at most, it will take a lot longer to charge some batteries. still a dumbass move from Casio to make a dedicated USB port for an add-on which costs almost as much as the keyboard...
