Hello Dear Friend, I almost bought the PSR-473, but... I did not like how "old" that new Keyboard sounded... I bought the Casio Ct-s1000v instead and I am very happy with it! The vocal Synth is so much fun to use and all the other sounds except for a few are very useable and nice, Drums are so much better on the Casio... The keys on the Casio are very nice to the touch... Also I really like the "Chromatic" sampling on the Casio.... I would recommend the Casio Ct-s1000v to anyone who wants to have a smile while playing... Really Happy with it!

Maybe it's me? But the decay on the Yamaha ( piano ) sounds longer with an almost string vibration tailing off as it fades. The Casio delay a little shorter and is missing something. As you said two very different keyboards. I do like the Casio for its novel, fun voice effect system ( who wouldn't ? ) and it probably has a use in a mix. The Yamaha sounds more aimed at a professional or learning situation. As always an unbiased and trustworthy review. On to the next..........👍

Yes, that's something I notice in my CT-X800, the piano decay sometimes is (too) short for how I like to play it. This is the only annoying problem I found on it, otherwise it has a beautiful piano sound. I hope the CT-S500 and CT-S1000V can edit and save new tones in a flash memory, it'll be very good to increase the piano's decay part.

I agree with you guys. The thing I noticed most strongly though was the 'ping' at the beginning of the Yamaha piano sound. It's not a glitch or anything, just a noticeable difference between the two. Of course, both of them have heaps of piano sounds so there's bound to be something pleasing for everyone, as long as that decay sounds natural.

Awesome video, just what I was looking fir that the ither videos didn't cover. I want both now. Lol I still want a Yamaha Reface CP to conplete my mini 37 key compact trilogy with the PSS-A50 and my Roland JD-Xi. And with my Roland Go:Keys, the Casio CT-S1. If I should get tonthat playing level, I would get a Roland RD 88, and maybe a VR Combo VR-09B. But that's way in the future, and probably fir my church. But music is not my main thing, I I don't have room for lots of more keyboards, especially for the smaller placed I just moved to, so the Reface CP and CT-S1, was my only additions planned at the time, but Yamaha and Casio just changed the whole game. Nothing is wrong with the CT-S1, but the CT-S1000V has so much more, and I believe the sounds the CT-S1 had that the CT-S400 lacked, and so much more. Plus the putch bend wheel and modulation wheel. But the Yamaha PSR-EW425 is the perfect upgrade of the PSR-E373, with a pitch bend wheel and the 76 keys for more playing range, as lots of sheet music runs out of keys in the lower octave of 61 note keyboards. Nothing is wrong with the CT-S1 and PSR-E373, but I am glad I didn't get them, though the CT-S1 is still great for the ultimate portable 61 note keyboard. But the CT-S1000V seems the best option firvwhat Ivm would want, albeit lacking the 76 keys of the PSR-EW425. The vocal features, including the ability to sample vocal tones to use is incredible. Like cars and accessories for automotive enthusiasts, keyboard/instrument and gear lust is the problem when you lack the time and resources. But at least I have awesome new options. But itvwill probsbly be the Reface CP and CT-S1000V, plus that Roland Boss Micro BR multitrack recorder, and the new Samsung Galaxy 360 Pro laptop with the Intel Core i7, iT storage and 16G RAM I may be able to get for about $40 USD a month.

thank you so much for these videos, I have watched so many from your channel, and enjoy them. I bough the CT-X3000 almost a month ago and I already start to notice that some keys are starting to have a squeek sound which is not good at all, luckely amazon allow me to return it, so now I have a week to decide what to go for,, I got the CTX3000 for a very good price (230 USD) here in Sweden. but the price have now got back up to (290 USD). However ever since I got it I got my eyes on the CTS500 as the cheaper brother of the CTS1000v and I would like to play with those voices but I think it is more like a gimic for me so this might die and not worth the extra money,, the price of CTS400 here though is (383 USD) and the PSR-E473 is in the same range. I love the rythms of the 473 and the groove mode, but it is so bulky and I think if I had the cts500 I might be able to put it between my keyboard and monitors to connect it to a DAW. however I wonder how is the quality of the keybed of the CTS00? I heard that they are much better than the CTX, and you menation that it is easier to use, is that also concedering that we are losing all the buttons of the CTX? I suspect something takes more steps to achive, right? it is funny here on the internet where people will just call the other brand they don't like a "toy" and some call this whole range for that, but I guess I don't mind a toy if it is going to be fun and have at least some good quality to it.. :) Thanks

I agree! Some of my favorite instruments are "toys" :) All your comments about the CT-S500 are correct also. It has nicer keys (much less noisy/squeaky) and an easier interface. It is all menu-driven instead of button-driven like on the CT-X. The sound quality is equal, but the CT-S500 has a sampler which is a massive advantage. I have plenty of samples you can download if you decide to get the CT-S500 :)

I have one last question for you though :) If you had both CT-S500 and the PSR-E473, which one you will feel more happy to go and open and start play things on it. I'm not a musician, but someone who play by hearing and have always had a cheap keyboard on the side, however I'm trying to get more serious now, hence why I want something that is of a good quality and that will grow with me a bit. I would love to be able to connect it to the DAW and get more use that way. But this is where CTS will be less bulky to put on my computer table. However I can't predict how much I'll do that sort of thing. Yet I do have the stand next to my computer so I can imagine doing this with the 473 as well, but will the 473 be more fun to play with due to its buttons and effects? What do you think. What worries me also able 473 is it's LCD screen that is having some issues it seems and Yamaha is not fixing those. So that can suck, which make me lean towards 463 maybe 🤔 sacrificing the newer sound system and some other stuff.

Hey man, Great vid. I need to share that your point is very interesting, cause I am trying to buy a piano for some time. I went to the store the salesman suggested for me medeli a331 if iam correct I was in love with the sound and so happy about it. Ofcourse I went home to do research before buying. Its been a mouth or so. I have saw that there are many features missing that I need. So I was doing big research on casios, which also spoke to me buy sound and nice visual design. After many of videos of some professionals (Jeremy See - really good guy - he posts really good material) After those videos I came with conclusion that Casios have nice features but have some limitations cause there is no place to have it all in one Casio. So i have found yamaha E473 which by logic side of view have it all, but Iam annoyed by the sound. EW is a little bit better so I thought that your comparision is good, especially cause Iam a little bit curious about CT V1000 and I must say I was very happy about it how it presents, till the video that I saw the limitations. Right now Iam in between like in life. You do choose from the mental point of view (or you) and have it all) Or you choose by the feel and joy of your inner child (in the worst scenario you will play and sell it later) It is really hard to choose between those. Anyway thanks for video those are the exact models Iam wondering, and thank you guys for letting me sharing my research. I will keep you updated. Much Love, Filip

Yes, usually Yamaha put superior sounds in their models, but this Casio is a bit more high-tech, because of what it packs inside. Can you please try to do a demo of the robotic voices?

@@gearfacts one little advice - I also do KZitem videos somehow and in the past did reviews too. But before starting to record, I always make all instruments to play something and I check the volume levels of all of them to be as much similar as possible, all of them not to be too far from the center (if I use panning), that each of them do not clip and all of them when they play together do not clip as well. In the last jam video I did I did the opposite mistake - I was paying attention to the headphone output and did not noticed the master output is too quiet, so this is something next time I will do too. You can always normalize or just amplify the signal, but either way with too quiet or too loud we lose from the signal, which I hate when happens. So be sure to check all levels and pannings before you start to record. Just an advice from my experience and mistakes.

I pushed one, then the other. So glad there's nothing wrong with it. I was surprised how much volume there was, actually, for only two 6 watt speakers. I love your channel, BTW!. I wonder how many keyboards you've sold for the companies you do reviews for. :) Bunches! Your review helped tip the scales for me in my decision to get one.

It does. You can set its volume in the menu or by adjusting a tiny knob on the back.

Soooo, the Casio requires an adapter to allow you to use the lyric app eh? Let me guess, it does not come with it? I thought you could plug your android or iOS device to the USB port to use the app, transfer samples, etc? And I thought you could use the blue tooth device for that as well. Hmm that $450USD price tag is becoming more and more unattractive. I may have to wait until I see the Casio in pawnshops and on clearance racks from returns.. The Yamaha samples decay very dull in the new HOME keyboards. The CASIO keyboard sampled sounds tend to decay with some artifacts that give it some variation like in real life. But I could hear the smoothed out looping point on the piano in the Casio with a twang effect where as on the Yamaha the piano just went from piano sound to a dull flat sound decay.. I noticed that in the new Yamahas of today.

Yes, the crazy thing with connecting the app is that you have to have to connect to the keyboard's micro-usb socket. Most phones of course just connect to normal USB. Ergo, you need a female USB socket to male micro-USB adapter. Think I might have one somewhere here...

I have a Casio CDP-S350 which I love (best piano feel for the price imo) I'm looking for a smaller keyboard to take at work, on vacation and just have fun with. I tried the Casio LK-S450 but the keyboard was very spongy and the learning LED system very disappointing. How does the Yamaha keyboard touch compare to the Casiotones? Does a graded 76 keys keyboard even exist?

The PSR-E373 has a very nice feel for a non-hammer keybed. The only 76 key hammer action pianos I know of are the Yamaha P121 and the ancient Ensoniq TS-20

I liked the comparison but it's seems the Casio is not at its maximum level of volume and that doesn't allow us to appreciate better the sound quality of this keyboard. Yamaha has a little advantage with respect to functionality but its keys action response is way too basic and noisy
