We can never thank you enough for your work. This is gold for low-budget beginners dreaming about becoming rockstars :)

I just got a yamaha p-45. Its pretty solid. Its nice looking, weighted, 88 keys and its simple to use. Feels pretty good so far.

Definitely a great Christmas gift for the beginners out there, the future of our music world! And as always, Jeremy's videos never disappoint!

This video is over a year old and I am kind of late to comment but thank you for this review. It seems like an ideal candidate for my shopping list looking for my first digital piano. Enough realism and feel if I ever decide to transfer over to a traditional piano and not too many features to overpay for and distract me as a beginner.

Loved the howl's moving castle theme piano cover

This is an excellent digital piano with all the features, design, quality, and affordable, exactly what you stated for those you mentioned. Casio & Yamaha make great, affordable keyboards with different features for various needs. And all the other keyboards linked in your video description are also great for their various intended uses. If I needed a main keyboard, with 88 keys and such, and was on a budget, this would be great. But I am not a beginning or formally trained piano student, and don't have much room for it, don't need the weighted action at this time, but could use the range of at least a 76 key keyboard. But, my Roland Go:Keys serves the purpose of what I wanted and needed it for, the the Casio CT-S1 I plan to get soon fits my other needs and wants at this time. I can always use the church Casio CDP-S350 at church during off times if I need it. Casio has a nice slim profikle design for most of their keyboards, and this one has the options clearly printed on it to negate the need for an LCD display others could really use. This digital piano is great to have the real USB interface connector, instead of the standard USB-A or worse, micro USB connector interface. The Roland RD 88 is almost as slim in design, albeit over twice the price, but it has all the features anyone could want. Just the mere fact that there are so many choices available to cater to our specific needs, desires, and budget is great. I'm still amazed at what they can do for the price compared to what has been available the last 40 years. From the $100 Yamaha PSS-A50, the Reface CP, YC, DX & CS, Casio CT-S1, My Roland Go:Keys and JD-Xi, the RD 88 and V Combo VR-09B and all the others. Especially the 61 to 88 key versions to cover the main acoustic piano, electric piano and other popular voices and features at affordable prices and levels for difference needs. I applaud all those responsible for conceiving, designing, creating and manufacturing all of these instruments. I stated long ago how advancement of portable electronic keyboard impacted our music subculture to facilitate learning enjoy playing and all the technical advancements and advantages over solely heavy, traditional accoustic instruments. Not if only we could absorb and be infused with divine musical giftings. But I guess that's why God created great music and piano teachers.

I guess the most important point of the gram weight experiment is to ensure that that weights on the black and white keys are the same. In my opinion this is a basic requirement that applies to any velocity sensitive keyboard actions, including the semi-weighted ones. Any keyboard that fails to meet this requirement is a fundamentally flawed product.

Great review. Just what I was looking for. Excellent demo. Awesome editing and no jibber jabber or RU-vid jokiness. Subbed!

You cannot hook me to your video by playing this song at the beginning! This is illegal! Great video.

As people become more experienced in there playing it might be appropriate to include Stage Piano reviews like the Casio PX-5S Privia PRO Digital Stage Piano. Runs on batteries hex layers of 256 polyphony. Around 1000.00.

Solid advice from a very knowledgeable, experienced musician and teacher. Thanks Jeremy.

Piano, Pipe Organ and Harpsicords tones still are ahead in authenticity compared to Yamaha's Piagerro, for example, not mentioning fully weighted keyboard pianos. I would buy Casio long time ago if I did not hear how Yamaha's pianos, organs and harpsicords sound - full, realistic, authentic, causing goose bumps with every key pressed.

Just got mine last week. I am in love!

Thanks for uploading this video. I just bought this one last week and have been searching for videos of this model all over but could only find ones for the 100 & 150 series.

I played this at guitar center and I loved the default piano sound more so than the DGX670. Batteries and 88 keys I am going to buy one for my second apartment.

I was really happy to see you playing Howl's Moving Castle!

Hey jeremy thank you so much for the reviews and honest opinion. got the cts1 and it is really one of the best synth action keyboard i've tried at this price level. One recommendation for your videos , your gate release is too sharp and your audio is getting really cuty , you can turn the release a bit higher for more natural sound

Just bought this on black friday for 350$ pretty solid keyboard but the only bad thing I found about it is that the headphone output is very noisy. My sensitive headphones pickup a lot of hiss.

Guys, I have to be honest. I don't want to ruin anyone's opinion, but as a Casio digital piano owner, it worths definitely the price. Trust me. I owned a Yamaha PSR-E363 and its sound was way more beautiful instead of my Casio CDP-230R that I own right now. It's only 1-2-3 hundred more pounds which might sound a lot in the beginning, but sometimes I just don't want to play the piano because its poor and plasticy sound... I play the piano and I also play on synth, my Casio can't handle both of them at a "friendly" price.

Hi Jeremy I`m an avid follower of your channel and piano enthusiast. I had a question. If Casio developed it`s Privia PX-S1100 that appears to be superior to the CDP-160, why hasn`t it replaced it? Is it because the CDP-160 is geared towards a more budget friendly market? I currently own a Yamaha P-45 and at come point will like to upgrade to a Casio. Cheers and please keep making more awesome review videos!

Haha, I like the reference to that guy who whipped out the gram weights. I thought that was a little over the top too! Nice review.

hello jeremy....what are the differences this cpd-s160 and cpd-s150?

2:14 I could feel myself ascending

Thanks for yet another great keyboard review! Did you ever get around to making any tutorial videos for the Medeli AKX10, which I have recently purchased? I struggle to find tutorials in English for this keyboard, which I think has great features and potential.

playing howls moving castle theme (i think) in the begining is all it takes to get me interested.

Thanks! Bought the casio px-s1000! Nice review!

I see CDP-S150 models everywhere, but not the CDP S-160. Is there a difference between these models? Is it a regional difference?

u didnt mention the brand and model of this keyboard the whole review..?

Beginner question. Best one to begin with: Casio CDP-S160 or Roland FP10? My uncle has both and offered me one. He says Casio is "easier" to begin but Roland is better overall. He mentions the weight of the keys. I can't tell. Is the weight of Casio's key so soft I would prefer it over the Roland? The specs of Roland are amazing. I wish I could keep them both. Haha

Can someone please tell me what’s the song he plays in the beginning of the video?

What are the differences between CDP S150 and CDP S160?

Thats what I want. easy to see voices - I have a Yamaha and it has 800 voices That is ridiculous I only want twenty or thirty and just one touch whilst playing on the fly

Hi amazing video, you kept it simple and short but you still managed to have everything I needed to know in the video. Just one quick question, when u say it comes with 88-full size hammer action keys, does this mean u can play different dynamics (pianississimo, pianissimo, piano, mp, mf, f, ff, fff)?

0:00 Yo wich song youre playing? It sounds so nice bit its diffrent to the "classical" Merry go round sound...

I got a rockjam 88 key down from 260 to 130 and it is vey good so far

how does this compare to the p45 for beginners? Which would you recommend

Pls do review kurzweil kp110. Thank you

The perfect piano is either hybrid or acoustic. Even expensive models can't keep up with more demanding music for so many reasons... I think digital is ok for the first one or two years, but then you gotta get yourself the real action keys.

I can’t find this model anywhere online or even a music store near me, does anyone know where I can purchase one?

Why does the amazon link go to a CDP s150? Also, what is the difference between the 150 and the 160? I can't seem to find this version for sale anywhere?

Thanks for the video Jeremy!

Hi Jeremy, could u pls do a video on ctx700/800 functions like polyphony... bc it would be useful for beginners like me.

Hi Jeremy 😄 may I know where to buy the three pedals that you showed in this video? I have a keyboard my sustain pedal keeps on sliding. I also want to practice having the three pedals just like acoustic piano though I only have digital. Hope for your response 😄

I was waiting for the part where you say what piano this is but I couldn’t find it? I might just be being dumb, what was the model?

Great information... Just subbed... Would explore your channel in great detail

Thanks for the review, which external amplifier is recommended for this keyboard ?

How powerful the sound is? Is it suitable for vocalising over it or is it too wimpy? Could it perhaps be outputted to an outside amplifier if the built-in audio is not powerful enough?

Which have a better key action? P45 or CDP-S160? Also Jeremy, I think it would be a good idea to make a video comparing digital pianos

Hi is this much of an upgrade from the cdp s150?. The specs look exactly the same.

Do you have any idea when Casio cdp s160 be available in the US and what will be the cost of it? Plus how is it different from Casio px s1100rd?

What are some recommendations for an advanced player that really just needs a keyboard for the headphone jack so they don't disturb everybody when they're practicing? (Cheapest possible "decent" recommendations pls)

I bought the kawai mp11se its quite expensive but its very nice

Yamaha p125 is the most complete keyboard and economic for pianists overall or the Yamaha p115

Hi, Jeremy. Would you recommend this over the Roland FP-10? If so, why? Thanks. :)

I wonder how this compare, soundwise, with the CT-S1? Does it has the Aix chip technology?

I am a pretty new player and owned a very old yamaha keyboard that broke. Then I got a Yamaha E463 after watching your videos! I always play with "fixed" touch sensitivity because on both my keyboards, regardless of whether I use soft, medium or hard sensitivity, I produce almost no sound at all unless I press down super hard. Is there some setting I missed or am I really just doing it wrong?

Hi Jeremy, have you tried the Clifton 88 key digital piano? I am thinking of buying one, Great video on this 88 key keyboard :)

Ive notice weighted 63 keys are realy hard to find, only the old roland rd64 i think, its a shame, if you want something you can carry but still has the feel of a weightd keyboard!

I like it. Thanks for the review.

Hi Jeremy, what are ur thoughts on the casio wk6600? It's ridiculously cheap for being touch sensitive with sustain port and 76 keys. Should I buy it or not?

Great video! So does that USB port allow to use this keyboard as a MIDI controller, to play with VST instruments on a DAW?

Casio link takes me to the CDP-S150 not the 160. Maybe the 160 is not available in the USA?

I really enjoy your videos

I love your videos quality

Is there any way to add anymore grand piano tones to this keyboard with the free Casio app?

Do the keys come with all 127 velocity layers and sensitivity? If so, I'd say even pros can use this in conjunction with professional sounding VSTIs. Why they don't include the mod wheel to their keyboards is beyond me though.

Sensei, can u make vs Yamaha p45 and Roland Fp30x, please? (Both same price in my country)

Muchas gracias maestro ha sido muy interesante

Sorry to say u did not mention the maker and model no of the keyboard in this video.

Okay, Im missing something here, which keyboard did you use in the video? Your links show various keyboards. Thanks

i have CDP s110 and i think that sustain effect of the Grand piano voice Is very weak : ( ...i could play an entire piece without ever taking my foot off the pedal : / Is It normal?

Hello and have a good year. I have a problem with my Casio CT-S300 keyboard. When I connect the headphone jack it doesn't sound good. However when I slightly pull it out it makes a good connection. What is the root of this problem and how could I solve it? Is just my keyboard problematic? Thank you.

Does the keys of this piano make those plastic noise which is very much evident in keyboards like Yamaha psr e363 ??

I can't find this model in the UK.... Does it have a different model number?

hello, greetings from poland. i have one question, is there any keyboard in casio or casiotone line which allows to import user tone/voice/sounds like sf2 or sfz format? (so far as i know some yamaha psr's support that feature)

Hey Jeremy, do you think this newer cdp-s160 would be able to keep up with the older px-s1000?

Should I get this, Roland fp10 or fp30?

i wanna buy nux npk10 but dont have much money, only have 100$ right now

Please do a detailed review of the behringer um 2

Great video, but one thing, but who makes with the instrument, and what is its name?

Is the Roland fp10 better then this? I'm looking to buy a keyboard and I don't know if I should get this or Roland fp 10.

I just wanted to know is this the s150 or s160, the link sends me to the 150 but your description says 160. i just wanted to know, ty.

What acoustic piano would you recommend for my 7 year old daughter?

Please answer my question should i buy casio ctx 700/800

Hey, what is the name of the Song you played at the beginning.

Sir, Can you do a review of Casio Cdps360 as you have done for cdp s350?

I got fp10 and the speakers aren't very good, any recommendations for external speakers I could buy？

Thank you for this.

would you recommend this or the alesis grand?

3:37 could you tell me what song this is please?

Hmm, this Piano seems enough for me to be able to learn Chopin Pieces

How does this compare to the alesis recital pro and the other alesis

What was he play at 2:13? That sounded niceeeee

Does anyone know where to find this in red? Like in the video?

Hi Jeremy what is the brand name of this keyboard?

Can you review the korg lp-380u

I LOVE RED...!!!

Sir what is the model name of this piano?

I'm confused. I don't think the model name is ever stated in the video! The description says Casio CDP-S160 but all the links go to CDP-S150.... help!
