I recently went for the 463 - as a beginner I wanted something of decent quality but just as importantly, easy to use. I keep hearing the UI on these Casios is quite complicated. The last thing I want, as a beginner, is to be faffing around with a difficult UI. I’m finding the 463 UI very intuitive. Loving it.

Fairest side-by... I've heard/seen for these 2 popular keyboards; Thanks! Although, I was disappointed that this demo didn't compare many renderings of acoustic instruments like grand piano, guitar, sax, trumpet, etc. Yamaha's cachet for years has been their Sweet Sounds, and many KZitem commenters have been unfairly dismissive of Casio's latest CT-X models in that regard... KZitem is now packed with numerous recent demos of both Yamaha PSR-Es and Casio CT-Xs - but there are remarkably few (only 2?) that go head-to-head where an attempt was made to minimize recording differences. I hope you will revisit and append to this comparison, with more comparisons of 'real-world' instruments' sounds. I personally prefer the bright sound of Casio's default 001 (but 002 seems a better match to Yamaha's default Grand). On the other hand Yamaha's sax is"spooky" realistic - compared Casio's sax - which sounds mathematically-derived, imo. When listening to complex polyphonic sounds, I believe that the CT-X3000 sounds cleaner than PSR-E463 (possibly due to Casio's 64-bit polyphony against Yamaha's somewhat dated 48-bit?) Anyhow, I've now been waiting more-than a month for a CT-X5000 I ordered... Meanwhile, I've had to subsist on frequent KZitem infusions, while awaiting the real thing; thanks for helping me thru this tough time!

I am also trying to decide between these two keyboards. In my case I am not interested in electronic music, synth or organs sounds, nor in accompagniments and rythms/styles. What I am looking for is a variety of big fat electric guitar sounds for playing (hard) rock . I tried electric guitar but failed miserably, keyboard for me is an easier instrument to learn. But i want to play along to ACDC, G&R, Metallica etc. Am I correct in thinking that for me the 3000 would be better than the 463, due to the effects processor and its ability to add distortion and cabinets to guitar sounds ? Or can the yamaha do this too ? I am also not interested in singing along, so would the 3000 be enough or should i consider the 5000 ? Lastly, I have a Kawai ES8 with USB midi out. Can this be directly (no computer) connected to these keyboards so I can play the ES8 with the sound coming from one of these keyboards ? Thank you for your reply !

Great question! I'd choose the CT-X800 in this case. The PSR-E463 does have distortion but as you say, there are more distortions/cabs on the CT-X and the guitar sounds are simply better. The answer to your second question is no, neither the CT-X or the PSR-e will talk to anything without a computer as the middle man. Direct link-up requires good old MIDI connection (round sockets) which seems to be a slowly-dying feature in home keyboards. If you can find an old Korg Triton though, it'll cost you about the same as a CT-X and it has MIDI as well as some blinding guitar sounds with very lifelike control from it's pitch/mod joystick. Don't be put off by its age. Anyway those are my thoughts :) #gearfacts

I have the CT-X 5000 & if you can fork out the bit extra it is well worth it over the 3000. Full L+R audio outs , better. More pro based user interface , much more powerful speakers (30w RMS v 12w) & much more ( but it won't work on batteries as it uses a 24volt power supply) all the Casio CT-X range can also recognise on bass chords which the PRS 463 can't & 64note poly (CT-X) v 48 note (Psr463) . Create your own accompaniments from scratch, far deeper effects & synth editing on CT-X . I originally only bought it just for teaching & home use, but it is so good that I sometimes now use it on smaller gigs instead of my full pro rig , which is something I wouldn't consider with a PSR 463 !!

Hi Samuel - your English is perfect, and this is a good question that is still discussed a lot. My opinion is this: The most important thing in a keyboard is that it's fun to use. The Casio CT-X models have better sounds, there's no doubt about that. But they are dreadful to use. Editing sounds is confusing but achievable. Sequencing songs on them is virtually impossible. With the Yamaha, the sounds are still acceptable (not as good as the CT-X series) but editing is easy and fun. The PSR-E463 is constantly surprising and pleasing. This is why I prefer the Yamaha PSR-E463 - simply because I have more fun using it, and I believe that shows in the music I make from it. Enjoyable instrument = Good music :)

Even more importantly which do you think has easier to read and understand settings. I do not want them to get confused over an overly complex menu system and discourage them from ever using it. They are extremely technically inclined, but there is a limit to how well they adapt to complex new tech. Also, they will be using this keyboard to travel with on occasion and playing music live around friends/family. Right now I am leaning toward Yamaha PSR E463 for checking many those boxes, but I am still on the fence.

It's a joy to hear and it's easy to browse and select the sounds. But for anything beyond that e.g. sequencing, synthesising, recording ...it's basically un-usable due to a diabolical operating system. I have never met anyone who has mastered the advanced features! The Yamaha on the other hand is a fun-machine. It sports a lot of fancy tricks and is very easy to operate and understand. It is designed to (and does) bring out the creativity in the player. The individual sounds aren't as good as the Casio but you'll still find they are a significant step up from what sounds like a pretty old setup at your parents' house. From what you've told me, it sounds like they just want to switch on, choose a sound, and play. I get the impression that the advanced features aren't needed. So for you I recommend the Casio. I hope the logic behind that recommendation makes sense. Feel free to message again, and thanks for getting in touch! :) Gearfacts

Really good review and many thanks but what's the best keyboard for performing...in terms of quickly being able to switch voices/patches and rhythms. I hear that the Casio has a registration bank right above the middle C but is it easy on the Yamaha too? Do the keyboards have pattern sequencers or perform modes as well?
@gearfacts
3 жыл бұрын
Yep they both have patch registrations that are easy to create and quick to retrieve. As for performing, it'd depend what kind of show I was doing. If it was just straight piano/EP playing then definitely the Casio. If the show involved more crazy synth stuff and other audio trickery like sampling, I'd choose the Yamaha. Both have pattern sequencers but the Casio is virtually un-usable. The Yahama sequencer is much easier. hope that helps :)

Dear Gear facts..Ive been researching this for 3 days now obsessively and it is taking a toll on me. I am a musician, a guitar player. Never ever got into keyboards until literally 5 months ago, borrowing my friends PSR E433 for some of my art videos and whatnot. Beautiful experience. I am still learning more and more especially with my hand dexterity and what not. As I consider myself an amateur and beginner keyboardist, what do you recommend between the following? I don't have much of a budget, but I also don't mind spending it if it will be a good quality that will live long with me!! I am willing to get the E463 for that if it will boil down to it. I never tried Casios, and it is SO conflicting on opinions, wondering what would you recommend best for me in such case? Casio CT X800 Casio CT x3000 Casio WK6600 Yamaha PSR-E363 Yamaha PSR-E463 ANy other recommendations you have, i am open to. Thank you man, and thank you for your videos

Hi Mo. Well the CTK-3500 is very basic indeed. It has a basic sampler which is cool, and a good set of rhythms ...but the quality of the voices really is rock bottom. The new Casio models (CT-X) all have great voices but really bland, dull rhythms and beyond just basic playing they are very hard to use. Yamaha has the most realistic and pleasing rhythms, but the voices aren't quite as good as the CT-X Casios. So all of that can be weighed up with your priorities. And of course my omnipotent rule is always "Buy the one that makes you smile" when you try it out. Ok, now for some alternative older models that I love: Anything that from Roland's EXR series, the old but excellent Casio CTK-900, the more recent Casio CTk 4000, 4200 and 4400, old Lowrey (aka Kawai) keyboards are also very surprising. I really need to do a video of great second hand keyboards to watch out for! Hope this helps anyway :) #gearfacts

I've been asking myself the same question over and over. I've always said to people 'buy the one that makes you smile' and, while the Casio has great sounds, it often makes me FROWN due to its baffling interface. I think that would quickly manifest an unhappy musical experience. The Yamaha doesn't sound as good - often quite flat in comparison - but it's fun all the way. And of course you can sample sounds on it, so that raises its sound capabilities significantly. So I think I'd go with the Yamaha if I had to make an absolutely final decision. Hope that helps, I still have two more videos in mind that need to be created for the 463 so we'll talk again soon :)

I DO have to realize that these are gigging keyboards built to a price but in this category I have to give the win to Casio. On the other hand, Yamaha's new P515 Model 88 note digital piano is a marvel at it's price point.

Yamaha's acoustic pianos and its older electronic organs and synths are great and some of them are even unique but when it comes to modern electronic instruments, although Yamaha does have some really good stuff, it feels so overrated and overpriced compared to most Casio models ...

I hear what you're saying. They are marketed at such different audiences though, and their respective capabilities complement each other IMO :) Gearfacts

Gearfacts There is also the Korg EK50 now for pure keyboard playing with a backing. Any chance you’ll review that one? I wonder whether it has any geeky features at all.

The Roland Go:keys has better sounds than both of these keyboards, but it has fewer features. I've reviewed it separately but I haven't got it anymore so can't do a direct comparison sorry :)

Hii there how can you store any tone/sounds you like to registration when you need to change sounds while you playing? Mine when I store sounds to registration key but when I want to change the sound was stop the my whole song instead of me playing my song and just the tone I want to fill in. Any help will be appreciated on ctx3000

Hmm, I think that's just what it does with registration memories, I don't think there's any way around it. All you can really do is memorize the number of the sound you need and punch it in ...on the fly :/
