Chose the CT S300 because of its mobility and it does not disappoint. Thank you for helping me create a decision!

[@zeroalex2]

If you're struggling to decide which of these 3 to get, think about your *actual* needs. In my case, since it was my first keyboard, i really didn't mind that much about the x700 having a better sound processor, as first I needed to learn the instrument; also I needed something not that large so it would fit in my computer desk when i use it as a Midi controller, so the s300 was the perfect option. I have to say I'm really happy with my decision, as the s300 is great for a beginner and has enough functions to keep you entertained for a while. Maybe once you get really good at it you can think of an upgrade. Thank you for these videos Jeremy, I've always wanted a keyboard but this comparison actually made me get the damn thing.

[@m3rc743]

i needed a sustain key in my kb so im thinking of going towards s300 even with its worse sound compared to x700.

At 01:31 you say the ct-s300 it's touch sensitive with "3 velocity curves". According to the Casio website, it is only 2 levels of sensitives (same 2 levels on the older ctk series: piano or forte). If I'd like more levels of sensitives I should go for the ct-s1 or ct-s400, isn't it?

Hello I’m from Mexico, I have some questions about the Casio CTS keyboard models, I have heard that the Casio CTX 700 has a 6 track song recorder, does the CTS 300 or CTS 200 have any recording functionality? Also, does the 77 rhythms of the Casiotone CTS model keyboards are auto-accompaniment rhythms or just drum beats? Thanks

[@frama7844]

After having heared both the CTX800 and the CT S-300 side by side I have to disagree about the speakers. The CTX has a much more ballanced overall tone than the Casiotones wich is more boxy. The CTX on the other hand is too scooped on some sounds for my taste. The CTX has 12cm diameter whereas the CTS has oval 13x6cm. The CTX also sounds more natural and has better/longer samples. But that beeing said: I got me a CT S300 (!) because I mainly use it as a controller, as a camp fire guitar-substitute and for some sofa practicing. The Keybed on both is awesome, but I like the matt finish on the CTS a bit more. Too bad, It has the old sound chip, but it´s fine for my kind of usage. Thank you, Jeremy for your videos. Best wishes from Germany :-)

[@geoffh784]

Your videos have been very helpful in deciding what to buy. I used to play piano when I was younger but haven't played much for years but the electronic keyboard concept interests me. I sold my acoustic upright piano when I downsized after retiring and I don't have space for a large piano any more. And after watching a lot of your videos I ended up ordering a Casio CT-S300. My thought process was I decide later that I want to get more serious (with the spare time I have since I've retired) then I can purchases a larger more powerful keyboard for home use and the CT-S300 will still be useful portable when travelling. And it's even light enough to put in a bag and bring onto a plane as carry on luggage! I wish we paid US prices in Australia, in USD the CT-S300 cost me $232 but relative to the cost of other keyboards it is stil an affordable unit. Thank you :)

[@JeremySee]

Have fun, buddy! Just be mindful that a keyboard costs a small fraction of an acoustic and is way smaller, so do adjust your expectation on sound accordingly.

I tried looking for any such content on your channel, but could not find it. Appreciate if you could please let me know.

Jeremy, have you done a video for us beginners that explains things like registrations, keyboard splits, layered voices, and things like that? They're becoming very common on all but the very cheapest beginner keyboards. I've looked through your video listings and haven't found anything that looks like that. It's probably true that most beginners who are grinding their way through the first year or two of learning to play probably don't need them (after all, none of this stuff is on an acoustic piano.) Some of us though, will be curious, and usually, the more you know about your instrument, the better. If you have something, you should learn how it works and master it. If you go far enough, you'll need it. If there a video out there that has this info, please point me to it. If not, please consider making one (or more if necessary - function of the week maybe?)

My daughter is leaving to study french horn at a music conservatory. We just received an email that she will need a portable electric piano for her music studies and piano classes which will last all year. I've watched a few of your videos. am not a musician myself. Thinking the cts300 is nice because it has that handle. The CTX700 looks like it has more which I think she would make use of- She composes, records and jams. To all you music school students, do you think that handle is the deal-breaker? Her dorm will be about 2 blocks from the conservatory. Thinking it's the ticket as it looks like an easy keyboard to haul around school- she has access to a couple recording studios with keyboards in the studio so maybe doesn't need the extra bells and whistles- Help me decide. I'm still stuck after watching. I'd ask my daughter but she is touring Italy with her orchestra and I need to order before she returns. Is there a case or handle on the CTX700?

I bought the red ct s200 after watching your earlier review. I love the portability, the looks and the integration with Chordana. Casio did a realy amazing job with the design of this keyboard. I realy hope they would use this formfactor also for their ct x series of keyboards. However, the ct s200 produces a very metallic sound - up to the point that I gave up using it. Certainly when used with headphones it irritates. My 10 year old casio lk-300tv sounds much much better but is just not very portable. Casio should produce a version of the ct-s200 with the AIX chip inside. Can you recommend something better? The Roland Go Keys looks good but seems to have problems in supporting Android.

[@johnd942]

+hvx colors: Thank you so much for sharing this information as I was considering buying the same model. Phew! I feel so lucky to see your warning about the metalic noise. I am very sorry for you now that you have bought it, and only so recently. I notice that Jeremy See has NOT bothered to comment, (at least not yet) and I find that very disappointing. But maybe he hasn't seen your report yet, so we can give him the benefit of the doubt...for the moment. But it does go to show the value of NOT TAKING advice on WORDS ALONE, even if from a man with 25 years experience that Jeremy See keeps telling viewers that he has. We really need to check musical instruments out in the shop...at least where possible. Have you considered taking the item back to the shop or Seller? Could it be a fault in the item, do you think? I really feel pissed off for you! Such a bummer!
