I'm not quite sure why you'd want the keyboard to switch on and start playing songs at a certain time of day, but hey, I guess it means you can use the keyboard as a very unique alarm clock. The CD functions seem pretty interesting and again, quite unique. I do find it odd that this model was only marketed in China, I could see this unit being marketed in a lot of countries when it was new.
The sound of this keyboard is similar to lk-301bb. In Japan, I can't listen to foreign demo songs, so I'm looking forward to hearing them soon. And it is amazing that the hl sound at that time has been adopted in some tones even after 15 years.
That one feature of you setting up the keyboard to automatically turn on and play a demo song is a bit freaky. Imagine sleeping at night and your keyboard just randomly turns on its own.
During a certain period (about 1990s-2000s), all China-specific models number of casio are ended with 8, like ct-588/688/788/888. I remember that began with ctk-738, which exactly the same version of ctk-731. The number 731 was abandoned when sales started in China because a biological and chemical warfare army called "Unit 731" in World War II had done huge inhumanly things and killed a lot of people.
Wow. That's deep. What I find interesting, though, is that the Japanese equivalent of this keyboard is the LK-88CD, which was released around the same time as the LK-38 and LK-58 (also Japanese), so I thought that LK-78CD came from a simple number modification, but since this is otherwise an all-English keyboard, I'm not really sure what the case is.
@@GabrielMiceli maybe then they just didn't use chinese print on this keyboard. brands like yamaha and casio usually use english print and in china they will give an extra "chinese panel card" with the product, it is a punched plastic card of which the shape is the same as the panel with chinese button name and voice name on, so user can just cover this card onto the panel to know the usage of each button.
@@dongchannel8924- Mine came with one of those. Most of the other Chinese Casio keyboards that I've seen, though, have Chinese printing on it including some extra Chinese tones, rhythms, and songs, so it would be strange, at least for me, if this keyboard that has none of that and was printed in English was solely made for China.
There are two things wrong with this comment: ① This video is not about any of that. It's about the LK-78CD, and it literally shows that at 0:07. Even though those keyboards are quite good in their own right, you've shown no apparent reason to mention them, so I don't understand why you did. ② Those were respectively released in 2003 and 2004, not 2011. 2011 was the year of AHL and is just about the time that even the LK-300TV was becoming obsolete. How or where did you even get 2011 from?
@@Davis9754- Oh, I thought RUclips deleted your comment (again). You should have kept it, though, not only to prevent this confusion, but because it could also be useful for others who want to know because that's a good question.
It functions exactly the same as this keyboard. If you need a button map, I've made one here: drive.google.com/file/d/1O2V2svDWIq-CnQvEYl3y61OKC6WPaweH/view If you need help with anything else, let me know.
28:44 is actually satisfying for me to see; showing all segments one by one
Finally! So glad to finally see someone got this and made an in-depth review!

You missed Tone [Bank 63 Program 81]: Test Sweep
That test doesn't exist on this keyboard.
@@GabrielMiceli It existed on CTK-800 but not that one.

Do 78cd demonstrations too.
As mentioned in description. Full Demonstration will be here soon
According to the official document, the CD that comes with the keyboard has 175 MIDI songs for playing.
I couldn't find that in the user's guide. Where did you see it?

I am soooo confused with it so please 🙏

Greetings from China. Buying this must be hard for non-mainland China users...
Oh, it was definitely difficult but very much worth it.
AAA
Hi Gabriel! This one’s less than 30$
