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...😇😎
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!!!
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!
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
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 ?
It's a wonderful instrument. If only were battery driven also, had software to edit sounds and arrangements on pc, and midi in, out, thru . . . Excellent video
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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?
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
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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
Hi Jeremy, a very well managed presentation about this keyboard, is it possible to load oriental music into this keyboard? Or which keyboard do you recommend with this potentiality. Thanks
Thanks for the Review .. Whats your take on the CASIO MZ-X500 compared to the Yamaha PSR SX series... and Korg Pa. Tone and build quality. Surprised to see you haven't reviewed the MZX
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. 😔
Olá, Você já fez comparação direta com o CT-S500? Qual desses dois têm melhores amostras de timbres? Ou seria a mesma coisa, apenas alguns recursos os diferenciam?.... Tenho dúvida em qual dos dois adquirir. Meu foco são os timbres.
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.
Greeting mr. See. I want to ask. Does this keyboard have to load style or song to the keyboard first before it can be played like e463/ek50. Or it can be played straight from the drive like bk.3 or psr s775. You now what i mean😂🙏
@@JeremySee thank you sir...I previously owned a ctx700..the keys are horrible and everytime I play..there is this ticking sound..I sold my ctx700 to a friend an now im ordering a ctx3000..thanks for the unboxing..it really helps a lot...I also have a psr-e463..very nice unit..easy to use...soon the ctx3000 will be delivered...yeeyyy..thanks
Is this keyboard worth getting now in 2020? I want a new keyboard and looking around, what is a good one to recommend below 1000 Canadian dollars? Love the videos man keep it up! I do like this keyboard but isn't it old now or still good in terms of modern.. thanks.. also would you consider this beginner, middle or pro?
Hello Jeremy, I was wondering if this well built high quality keyboard is the same as the ctx3000 at $299 which I might buy. What I mean is stuff like the feel of the keys, and build quality. Also I really like the solo tenor sax, it actually sounds realistic. They should improve the solo soprano sax.
Excellent architecture over view of this keyboard at the beginning of the video, very intelligent. For those of use using WK7600 and XW-P1 today if was very informative and concise and didn't treat us like children...thank you, a big thank you!!. Since both my XWP1 and WK7600 use the same sounds (tones)...how would you rate the CTx5000 sounds in comparison???
Hi Jeremy, Any suggested stand for these keyboards. I have small children at home, and I am a little bit worried. So is there any option which is very stable and which can somehow attach / lock the keyboard in the stand? Thanks a lot, Roberto
Hey Jeremy, I have played the CT-X 5000 with its original speakers and CT-X 800 put to an amp, but I can't hear any difference in pure sound quality. Have you heard differences ???
Thanks Jeremy. With Casio CT-X3000 or CT-X5000, how do you make it display the music notes played with the keys on the keyboard's screen? Is that not possible and only way is to connect it to a Android tablet as the host with the Chordana app?
I bought a Casio CTK-2100 many years ago for around $100, and was really disappointed. No velocity sensitivity, poor quality sounds, and low quality key feel. I am looking to buy a new keyboard to replace it, and right now, the CT-X5000 looks like it might be a great upgrade. I was worried that the key bed would be flimsy like the CTK 2100, but you say it feels pretty nice and sturdy, so I trust you. I'm going to get one soon! It looks like Casio has improved a lot in quality recently.
Hello Jeremy, I was wondering if someone can send a midi file melody, that exists loaded on a DAW to the ctx5000 keyboard through midi , to have the ctx5000 keyboard to play the melody . Maybe this is a very specific question , but I thought that maybe you have explored such functions while testing this instrument...Again thanks for your high quality reviews!!
I have purchased CTX5000 which so far giving me ample satisfaction as a beginner. I am trying to get tremolo effect for instrument like Mandolin and struggling to set it up. Can any of the keyboard pros here help me? Not finding any tutorials on this setup in web.
Hello Mr. Jeremy See im just starting to learn piano. I watched your videos recently and got a lot of information regarding keyboards. However, im still confused on what keyboard to buy. is it okay for a beginner like me to have the CTK-3500/CTK-5200 model of Casio keyboard? which one is better? or what model do you recommend me to buy?. Hope i'll get a response from you sir. Thanks in advance
Thou I am 49 , very interested in music and do learning Keyboard , with Casio S45 off course mini keys.Now I am eager to buy a keyboard.May i Choose CASIO CT-X9000IN. As a beginner can I select this model.Need your guideline please.
Hey Jer. Maybe it's a stupid question, but if I connected my guitar into that Mic In jack, would that work like a kind of an amplifier? And if so, which additional effects could be applied to the sound?
Hi , this model or the Yamaha PSR 473 ?, looking to create my own tracks and want a sequencer and editable drums that I can arrange , what is your suggestion, appreciated
Dear Jeremy, I'm still struggling to create new voices and styles (Rythems) with my Keyboard. Therefore I appreciate if you can do simple instruction file on that.
Hi Jeremy, I bought CTX 9000in recently. It was playing quite well but suddenly i find clicking sound of the keys on Middle C and D button and also A button. Is it normal for Casio keyboards?
Hey Jeremy.... Just wanted to ask... I play a lot of downloaded Midi files on my PA600... But is this CTX5000 or 9000 any good for that... Can they deliver good sounds on downloaded Midi files.... Or can u suggest me any other cheaper keyboards for the same purpose... I like PA300.. but I m out of budget
Hi Jeremy , its one month now since i bought mine , i just realized how difficult the multitrack functions . Can you make or refer a step by step process of recording and bouncing to wav file ? Tnx
We are in 2024 and these keyboards look like we are in 1990 come on guys..even a cheap smartphone has a touchscreen,Bluetooth and wifi... Casio needs to put a touchscreen and four main parts in accompaniment section a, b, c, d and at least Bluetooth connection it will be amazing... I would buy it if they did such an upgrade even if it would be more expensive..
Could you record a singing voice or several voices in one, or several of the 16 "MIDI Solo Tracks" available in the MIDI recording and this... Through the microphone in...??? (All of this apart from the "System Track" which is made up of another 16 tracks in the CT-X5000...) Thank you very much for your answer in advance.
