The ct-x 3000 is for battery power junkies...I now own the CT-X 700 - the CT-X 5000 - and the Yamaha PSR E-473 ...I am set for life...Thank You Jeremy See...😇😎

[@normanswarn4949]

battery junkies ? I think you mean picnic players.

[@lorencarlin2087]

Wow! Casio has come a long way. This video is old. Gonna have to see what they've come up with since. Thanks, by the way, for doing these videos. I appreciate your efforts. You rule guy!!!

[@erichkohl9317]

Really nice video and general overview. I just purchased the CT-X3000 myself because I just *had* to see what Casio could pull off for $300. The last Casio I ever had was in 1986 and it was a very small keyboard for beginners. But the CT-X ... just wow, I can't believe how much they have included for the money. Sure, I've only owned it for a few days, so time will tell how it holds up, but my first impression is extremely good. Excellent sound quality, lots of features, great looks, nice feel. If this is a sign of more good things to come, then the future looks bright!

[@abdullahlaith2629]

Hey man, I’m also willing to buy the ctx3000. How is it after few month? And do you recommend it for me? I would really appreciate if you answer...

[@andyvitko7040]

I've been puzzling over picking up a guitar or keyboard. I think your solos on this model have helped me decide. You can use this to "play" many instruments. All I have to do is learn to play! Haha!

I was about to buy korg ek 50 today. But in the shop i also tried casio ctx 5000 and I feel in love. 1 Sounds better to my ears. More crisp sound. 2 Arrpegiator!! 3 Much better sequencer 4 I love the keybed. 5 More regbuttons 6 You can easily mute all individual parts. And again: Tx for all your info Jeremy. Makes it so much easier. 😀

i'm an amateur guitarist and even i know that Casio used to be a punchline for Keyboard world but man they have improved so much, actually i'm thinking into buying a keyboard to learn to play especially for Gospel services purposes or playing 80's pop music which i love, your video really helped me and this Keyboard definitely goes into one of my nominations

the sounds are so amazing. I will buy mine soon thank you so much Jeremy

[@dsilaghi9028]

Hi Jeremy ! Congratulations for your great work ! All your videos, reviews and presentations are very useful for us. Tell me please, is there any differences betwen CT-X3000 and CT-X5000 regarding the plastic quality? I had both of them and it seems that the CT-X3000 is made by more rough textured solid plastic compared to CT-5000, at least in the non-mat parts. Did you notice this ? Also, is it posible that they are manufactured in different countries, Japan, China ?

[@inthepit8800]

Just managed to score one of these off a friend still in sealed box for $112 I'm really excited to try it out.

[@JeremySee]

Wow!

[@TheMadisonHang]

how is that even possible?

[@Kinnor.Home.Studios]

Loved those pianos strings and realistic rhythm arrangements. But I think the Ac guitar sounds doesn't sounds dynamically as expected.

[@potato9832]

One more thing I read in the manual about the pedals. You don't have to plug in an expression pedal for the 2nd pedal port. You could input 2 identical Casio pedals and set one to sustain and one to sostenuto. I don't have two pedals to test though, but it ought to work.

[@bagusprihastomo7439]

Still learning about keyboard & piano using my dad's old WK1800, hopefully I can afford this ctx5000 soon. It's still a little bit expensive for my wallet but I think this keyboard is worthy

Casio has gone a long way esp with their sounds, esp the piano. Meanwhile, yamaha is stuck on their sound engine from 90s psr. I hear no difference in the piano of the Psr-e series, s750, in comparison with my 22-year old yamaha psr530.

[@togelz]

sadly they've become lazy, since at that price range they practically has no competition for like two decades, but i think the situation will change now, CT-X series definitely will upset the establishment that PSR had

[@anthonymcmillian5689]

Mr. Lee. I really enjoy and value your opinion on keyboards. Particularly this ctx 5000. you were so informative that I purchased this board last year. I would love for you to make a side by side comparison to Casios now ancient WK-7600 (CTK-7000). Even though its old. I feel some of its attributes could have been incorporated in post keyboards. And still could be useful today.

[@balasubramanianramachandra7572]

I just bought one 2 months back. Its already giving bad, unbearable key sounds.. mechanical. Dobyou have this? When complained tge store calibrated it. But still noisy

[@gauravgoel8092]

Very nice review, Jeremy. But one question, are casio keyboard keys are as good as yamaha keyboard's, or is it like, they start producing noise and become loose very soon.

[@hakanvenderlof3786]

I have yamaha psr 670 and casio ctx 5000. When I play the casio it feels like I am playing with a real band. The yamaha styles are wellmade and complex but it sounds more artificial.

[@nothing.here182]

Hakan since you have both, how's the keybed on the Casio ctx5000 compared with your Yamaha? I owned an entry level Casio in the past and the keybed was very flimsy. I found the Yamaha psr keys to be very solid and have some nice springy resistance

[@maestrovlds]

Mind if I ask the title of the background music used for this video? Nice review, btw. 😁

[@BipBopBoopBopBam]

nice video. was wondering if the ctx5000 and ctx3000 share the same tones? just wondering because they both have 800 it seems

Hi Jeremy! thanks again for your videos. Please can you please let me understand if the line CT-X is higher than the CT-S? Would this CT-X5000 be better than the CT-S500? and how does it compare to the Yamaha PSR-437? Appreciate your help, thanks a lot in advance, Regards from Peru.

[@moonlightmelodrama]

The sound reproduction on this keyboard is outstanding. Aided and abetted by the powerful speakers. If you are also an owner. Try out #228 described as SlowStStr. I take it to mean slow strings. A fantastic sound.

[@doggedoge7255]

I think this keyboard came from the same family of XW or at least with a lot of similarities, what I notice in the XW (because I had one) was during a performance it would occasionally lag and this was the major factor for me selling it and I'm sad to find out after listening to some demo's that the problem seems to have carried over to this keyboard as well because I hear those dropouts when some styles were played. I think most people won't notice because they'll think it's a video dropout but no, it's the actual keyboard. 😔

[@nkemebenezer]

Greetings Mr Jeremy i must commend your videos are quite helpful. Could you please make a video demonstration with the CTX 5000 using a microphone plugged to the port behind. i would really love to hear how it sounds. Thank you

Does it have any pad sounds? Can you layer sounds together and adjust volume for each layer ? I wonder if it’ll be good for church use 🤔

[@IMChowdhuryOfficial]

Hi Jeremy, always great to see your videos. I'm torn between this and the Yamaha PSREW425. Here in Australia they are priced pretty muxh in the same range. I like sound sculpting features in both (lack of which turned me away from Korg Ek50). The Ctx5000 obviously excels in this. But, the operating system is turning me off. On the other hand the PSREW425 seems like a fun keyboard with some advanced features. Any suggestions which I should choose between the two?

[@pixel_virus]

I wold say yamaha psr ew425

[@FelipotheMiraculous]

What did you decided? I have the same issue (in my opinion Casio sounds better and buy me makes me smile, but 425 yamaha feels more suitable by logic side of view it has much more functions. Anyway tell me about your choice

A Great teacher you are Jeremy.

[@ivanl.8201]

Hi Jeremy. I remember your Casio CT-X700 review and how you mentioned that, on that particular model, there is really no way to control the individual volume of tones when layering them together. Well, I went through the manual for CT-X5000, and it doesn't mention anything about fine-tuning the each individual tone's volume in the layer, either. I don't expect that this keyboard will be as feature-rich in the sound layering department as my Roland Juno DS is, but does it at least allow for some volume control of the individual layer parts? I used to have a Casio WK-3000, which had quite simple layering (only 2 tones), but it had a mixer, and I was able to control the volume of each tone in the layer. But, I don't know if this keyboard has an on-board mixer that would let me control the layer parameters like that.

[@JeremySee]

You can on the CT-X5000. It's there.
