I keep getting happier and happier with my Casio purchases, the px5s and xw-p1

[@LGDoc]

Excellent, the Noire piano has the tone and response I've been trying to find in the PX-5S. Thanks Mike and please keep them coming.

[@gershon8]

Fantastic work Mr. Martin. That's the level of understanding the instruments system one needs.

[@GabrielSantos-zp1nl]

can you please post an updated download of this piano? its so beautiful

[@johncouch1115]

Great work Mike thanks for keeping us PX 5S guys in mind despite competing new products.

[@mistermodeld3927]

wow sounds amazing i was looking for good piano sounds on px5S and BOOM i love my rhodes sounds on it are so spot on !! thanks for great sounds !!!

[@copyvijaylivez]

Dear Sir, amazing sounds,thank u for the good sound editing.

[@geeflat]

Sounds wonderful. I have a PX5S but haven’t been to the forums for ages. I’ll log in tomorrow and download this and see what other new stage settings are available. Thanks.

[@richsandness5409]

I wish I could agree, I could barely even hear him, or the Keyboard, and I am not deaf, and my speaker is not that great, but neither is it that bad, ... either.

[@hellitastenfan]

Great work Mike. Thank you. greetings

[@novachord1]

Sounds great through my studio monitors, Mike!

[@skinnyTheCat]

Mike, as always, you are incredible i what you do! Thank you for your support and all the interesting new stuff you share with us. This soundscape piano you created is wonderful, and the sub is really great and thick! Monitors & Phones both show the depth of this instrument sound! I am a newbie player myself, and got this "sound machine" to start my journey on. Your videos really help :).Is there a place where all the PX-5s videos are gathered? Thank You, David.

[@grahamcmusic]

v interesting and helpful from Mike as always `Great chords to demonstrate the sounds

[@eduardohenriquesantos6539]

Sensacional!! Muito bom. Parabéns Mike!

[@helvecioguimaraes]

Hey, all, this is really cool. I guess a fair question these days may be: when is the follow-up to the PX-5S coming out? 😉

[@richsandness5409]

Correct.

[@mr.stevensondakh]

Hello Mike.. request to add more sound/synth sound on PX-560 on the next update

[@chrisgestrin5274]

Beautiful sound! Thanks Mike! I have a PX-5S and really love it. I have discovered something about the keyboard velocities though that I am wondering if anyone else out there has experienced. It seems impossible to get the highest velocities out of the keyboard. Like in the range of about 115-127. Changing the velocity settings (light / normal / heavy) doesn't help. The only way I can actually send a velocity of 127 (to both the internal sounds AND the Midi outputs) is to set the velocity setting to 'OFF' and make the off velocity level 127. I am a professional pianist and the most I can get out of it is MAYBE about 122-124 and that's literally only if I slam my hands ridiculously hard onto it. Any normal type of heavy playing does not get above about 110 or so. Seems like something is wrong, or perhaps there is some other adjustment or setting I am missing?

[@reeserowan4873]

love the Casios and your videos, one question; will an 88 key like px-5s be available with those great AIX sounds or can we ad AIX to px-5s and 560. Thanks for your sharing

[@mousehouse4617]

Hi Mike. Great video and the PX-5S can really produce some inspiring patches. Does the PX-5S have the same keybed as the Casio Privia PX310? Previously owned the PX310 and found the keybed really noisy and bouncy so couldn't get on with it. Thanks

[@casiomusicgear]

The PX-5S has a different and improved action over the PX-310.

[@mousehouse4617]

@@casiomusicgear Thanks for your reply

[@GospelMusic4Life]

I was tempted to get this piano over the Roland Juno DS but unsure or the support for it long term. It sounds great though.

[@michaelkirk8730]

That noire piano would sound amazing with Philip Glass pieces. Please make a hex version as you said for the PX560 when you have a chance.

[@casiomusicgear]

Michael Kirk it is available to download at the CasioMusicForums for both the PX-5S and PX-560

[@Wulfcry]

I wanted to use an EDM technique to sidechain a tone with low-eq instead of cutoff using the arppegiator. Could try out in combination with pitch shift and several tones with hexlayer 🤔

[@TheBroadcastStudio365]

I plan to buy this stage piano this week. Where can I download the piano noire sound and other sounds ...? Can you give me a link? Sorry I don't understand (so far) much about digital Stage pianos.

[@victorfelipeba]

Superb sound! Can any of these Casio pianos do live loops? Something like xw p1 does...

[@casiomusicgear]

The PX-5S has an 8 track "phrase recorder". It isn't a real-time looper like the XW series has but it can be used to record parts which can also be triggered live from the keyboard. The PX-560 has a traditional sequencer.

[@izdaM]

It would be great if Casio px-5s supported the Polish language. It could also use an update. I love this Piano so much that I have two examples.

[@kibordiskantoran]

Hi, Can Ask Something, how to create mono lead sound/preset on Casio PX5S ?? Hope I Can Get the Answer ✌🏻✌🏻 Thankyou

[@casiomusicgear]

The PX-5S can't do monophonic leads.

[@robertbrown6879]

On the PX-560, is there anyway to look up saved Registrations or will there be on a future stage keyboard?

[@instrumentalistjade8367]

My favorite keyboard.. the px5s... Can you suggest how can i get a cp80 grand like sound/patch?

[@robertbrown6879]

Is Casio going to come up with another stage piano in the line of the PX-5S and the PX-560?

[@dessiplaer]

I have two questions. Is this keyboard still manufactured by Casio, and if not, why? It seems to be immediate when switching to new sounds or modifying the sound on the fly. It seems like a great choice for playing live, as a player doesn't need to menu dive.

[@ze-ce.cra_]

That would be great sound to play Gymnopedie

[@crankboost]

Why this model px-5S is not available in India? Please manufacture px5s with bigger screen

[@Pianoman1488]

Can you do this with the px-s3000? If so, can you show us how? Thinking about getting a psx, this would push me over the edge. Thanks!

[@mikemmartin]

Pretty close, check the downloads section of the CasioMusicForums site. :)

[@saxonliw9502]

What about PX-S1000 and/or PX-S3000?

[@casiomusicgear]

The PX-S1000 and PX-S3000 have different capabilities - including things that the PX-5S can't do. Might be able to come create something like this on the PX-S3000. We'll experiment and let you know.
