Introduction

Congratulations upon your selection of this CASIO musical instrument. This digital piano provides you with the following
features and functions.
❐ 620 Tones Include Rich Advanced Tones
A total of 400 Advanced Tones are programmed with DSP tones to make them richer and more powerful. Advanced tones like
Stereo Piano and Tremolo Electric Piano enhance the Piano and Electric Piano tones to create a totally new sound.
❐ 50 Drawbar Organ Tones
In addition to the 620 standards tones, the digital piano also includes 50 realistic drawbar organ tones. Drawbar organ tones can
be controlled using nine digital drawbars. You can also select percussion or key click, and even edit the parameters of preset tone
and save up to 100 original tones in user tone memory.
❐ Flash Memory
Built-in Flash memory lets you expand your selection of tones and rhythms by downloading data from the CASIO MUSIC SITE,
or by the CD-ROM that comes bundled with the digital piano. You can also store up to 200 SMF format music files for playback.
❐ PIANO SETTING Button
The press of a button optimizes the keyboard setup for piano play.
❐ 166 Preset Rhythms + 16 User Rhythms
A selection of 166 rhythms includes accompaniments for everything from rock to pops and jazz.
You can also transfer accompaniment data from your computer and store up to 16 of them as user rhythms in digital piano
memory.
❐ Auto Accompaniment
Simply play a chord and the corresponding rhythm, bass and chord parts play automatically. One-touch Preset instantly recalls
the most suitable tone and tempo settings to match the rhythm you are using.
❐ Big, Information-packed Display
A big built-in display shows chord names, tempo setting, keyboard information, staff notation of notes played, and more for full
support of all your keyboard play. A built-in backlight keeps the display easy to read, even in total darkness.
❐ Song Memory
Record up to six parts in memory, along with their tone, volume, pan position, and other parameters for later playback. Realistic
ensemble play can also be created using the Auto Accompaniment function.
❐ Synthesizer Mode
Edit built-in sounds to produce your own original creations. Up to 120 of your own sounds can be stored in memory for recall,
just like the built-in tones.
❐ General MIDI compatibility
The General MIDI tones of this digital piano let you connect to a personal computer to enjoy "desktop music" capabilities. This
digital piano can be used as a desktop music input device or sound source, and it's just the thing for playback of commercially
available pre-recorded General MIDI music software.
❐ Powerful effects
A collection of powerful effects, such as DSP, reverb, chorus, and more, give you total control over the type of sound you want.
You can even change the parameters of an effect to create your own, original effects. A 4-band equalizer is also included.
