Hello Sr. Jeremy ! nice to see you in this video showing a wonderfull piano design - ever - also enjoy when you are playing a french song writer set. Thank You.
I was an authorized Casio musical instrument service center for years. Compared to the other major brands, their acoustic piano sound was never a wow. But each year I was impressed by their improvement. What I can state is that the Casio digital pianos had the fewest key action problems of any of the brands. And generally they were quick inexpensive repairs. Yamaha, Roland, Kurzweil, Korg, and Kawai all had major design failures in their actions which kept my company in business for 35 years.
What'd you think of the older Alesis instruments? QS8s show up used all the time for ~$400, which is a steal for a solid chassis, excellent Fatar keybed, and very good multisampled grand pianos in the ROM.
It's nice to see a wholehearted recommendation of a digital piano and I have to congratulate Casio for its innovation. It might not be my perfect digital piano, but I am particularly impressed by Casio's latest sounds and functionality, plus its understanding of user needs such as portability and battery power. I guess we are all watching Casio closely now, waiting to see what new innovations it will think of.
I'm curious to know if the feel of the keys are efected by the slim format of this digital piano. Personally I would like to try it, but the chances are of that happening is like this (digital piano) very slim haha! Also not able to find a Kawai ES920, or ES520 eather🎹🎶
Almost the same situation here. Roland and Yamaha have excellent distribution and availability. But Kawai is almost non-existent except for the ES110. New Casio models are also largely unavailable. AZ piano news' warning of production difficulties are turning out to be true indeed.
I want learning chord piano lessons. Learn more about. Love song secret. My relationship friendship partnership. My Boyfriend my friend my daughter. My girlfriend my husband my wife I want get out my chest
@@MERCEDES-BENZS600GUARD_V12 Roland's younger sibling of their flagship RD2000 stage piano, the RD 88 is of a similar slim design, but with their renowned keyboard action. When you get to the level that playing feel, especially for weighted keys and all of the features like progressive hammer action, escapement, etc., you have to actually be there abd physically try it out for yourself, with the different touch response settings.
I also went out and bought a Casio Privia PX-S7000 about a week ago. I don't think the piano samples are going to blow anyone away, but it's just so fun to play. I have both my Nord Piano 5 and this Casio in my practice space, and I keep reaching for the Casio instead. Plus the Rhodes sound is great. I'm loving this thing!
Did you mean PX-S7000? It's good to have options in your personal audio arsenal to suit your needs, mood, and particular application or project. I have my different keyboards and the Casio CT-S1 I plan to pick up tomorrow, and each have their own unique features and sounds for different things.
Excellent review. I bought my first digital piano following your advice 2 years ago and i havent regret it. Thank you for your videos Greetings from Chile
I'm still rocking my 1st edition Nord Piano 88 after 11 years of gigging and pretty much every day practice / sequencing. Has zero flaws with the keys, the only thing I had to replace was the triple pedal, it got flooded and I got a new one :)
Didn't saw the thumbnail, nor the video but just the title and I exactly knew it was gonna be the aesthetically perfect newly launched PXS 7000 😁 BTW Thank you so much Jeremy for this great video upon the PXS 7000 and for sharing your own reviews on this piece of utter beauty👍👍👍
Can watch you play all day Jeremy. I really enjoy listening and seeing you play on these videos. Love your reviews and insights. Stay safe and blessings.
Hello Jeremy. Regarding your comment at 7:31 that the PX-S7000 comes with 88 real wood keys made of spruce, the keys are actually plastic with spruce sides. This is similar to the Roland PHA-50 action and Studiologic Numa X Piano GT with its Fatar action TP/400 Wood. The keys are plastic, but they have thin wooden veneer inserts on the sides. They certainly look very nice and realistic enough to be confused with real wooden keys. I noticed you mentioned the Yamaha MODUS line and showed a picture of the H01/H11. I played both models in person, they were much bigger than the pictures suggested, and had a modern and high-end look. It seems Casio is trying to target that market, but at a much more convenient price point. Of course, the MODUS H01/H11 had a much more sophisticated amplifier and speaker system, actual natural wood keys (NW), plus a much more upscale finish (and it was much more expensive). I see this new Casio as a pretty piano for the most part, and looks does sell. From a purely functional point of view, I am not impressed. I am not impressed with the tone generator engine or the features. That award goes, in my book, to the Yamaha DGX-670. That piano is half the price, has 600 high quality tones, 270 styles with 4 variations each, better speakers than the PX-S7000, a large color screen, 16-track sequencer, etc. Regarding the Yamaha GHS action vs Casio Smart Hybrid action: the Casio beats the GHS mostly in terms of looks because of its nice finish and the wooden veneer inserts on the sides. I am sure it feels very nice as well. But in the end both are plastic actions without advanced features that would attract more professional players. I see the PX-S7000 as a nice looking digital piano that is well rounded, although mainly targeted to home users who want an instrument that stands out in the crowd, but not because of amazing sound or touch, but mostly because of looks.
You seem like an expert, maybe you could enlighten me. I know, it is not really comparable price wise. But how does the Roland FP-30X stand against this one regarding key action and sound clarity? It also has 264 polyphony and a good weighted key action. So in what exactly is the pxs-7000 better performing? question nr 2: If I plug the FP-30X to a audio-software where I can play the most qualitative high resolution sounds, would you still say that there is a difference between those two?
@@zjaeger1800 Hello, not an expert he he but I can surely share my opinion with you :) I haven't seen the PX-S7000 in person yet to judge action and sound quality. I have played the FP30X and the FP90X, as well as I owned the FP50 and the RP401R (both discontinued now and are about 6 years old). I have also played the PX-S1000, PX-S3100, and PX-S1100. I think the wisest choice is the FP30X. I don't think the PX-S7000 gives you a lot more in terms of sound and key action. However, the PX-S7000 is a prettier piano. It is more about looks and fit and finish rather than being more functional than the FP30X. For $2,500, I would buy a Yamaha CLP725 or Kawai CA49 here in the US, which are much better choices than the Casio PX-S7000. Or I would buy a Yamaha CP88 or MODX8+, or a Kawai MP7SE. There are too many professional products at that price range that are way better than the PX-S7000. But again, if you just want a good looking piano, the PX-S7000 seems to be a very good choice. Regarding your second question: I am not sure if you mean to use the FP30X as a MIDI controller of vst sounds, or you mean to record the internal Roland sounds via a DAW... I think either way the Roland gives you a more functional performance for much less money. I hope this helps... still the best way to decide would be to test them in person.
I've been using a Casio PX-5s now for the last four years or so. I find it a beautiful keyboard. It contains many usable sounds, a sequencer and tons of other useful things. I can also operate it with power supply or batteries. It's light and so easy to transport. Who needs a red coloured keyboard when you can have a white Casio for a fraction of the price. Great review.
@@crazywisdom2 The acoustic sound on the PX5-S is the same as you hear in the beginning of this video but the PX-S7000 also has some other piano samples which I more like. You will not find any digital piano on the market that will come as close as the sound generated from a real grand by its vibrating strings. I would recommend you using a very good midi controller or digital piano and using the best available piano VST's there are to get as close as you can.
My ex wife has just taken my Casio PX880 piano as part of her "share" of the house content. Taking it away from me and my kids and put it in a shipping container. Time to start saving again to buy another piano. Maybe thus would be a good upgrade. Thanks for the review
I have Roland as my brand preference, but like Yamaha and Casio, the other brands not so much, but I acknowledge that Nord is definitely top tier for the discriminating professional keyboardist if they find it to there liking, and all the features and qualities suits them. Pricey, yes, but you get what you pay for, and it is well worth the price if it is what you are willing to pay it.
@@hlcotten6587 What great about the Nords is lots of upgradability with voices. But Roland, Yamaha and Casio have their own perks. It also depends on the player, with their perspective, personal tastes, training and proficiency, what they need and want, what sounds, features, aesthetics and tactile feel and response of the keyboard, and many other factors. If it works for you and makes you happy, and are not problematic, like dependable, reliable automobiles, it's a win, and the plus is so options out there.
@@tshoob So many different choices available subject to numerous factors, and what the player wants and needs. I love the Nords, like those nice upscale vehicles, but other brands have their own perks, music is not my main craft or vocation, not s professional gigging musician, composer, though very music into music from when I was very young. My present more affordable keyboards and gear like my Roland Go:Keys, JD-Xi, and my Casiotone CT-S1 and simply, but versatile Yamaha PSS-A50 suit me fine for what I need and have time for. I have had expensive keyboards in the past, but presently don't need, or have time to make use of upper tier keyboards, done with 76 or 88 weighted keys, but when I do, Roland has exactly what I would want for less than the top of the line flagships costs and extra size and bulk with the RD 88, Fantom 06/07 and V-Combo VR-09B. With all the options at different price levels, we can't lose if it suits our purposes and makes us happy.
Casio in recent years have been killing it. I like this keyboard. I agree the pivot point is my biggest gripe, but that's the result of the narrow compact design. I have a Casio GP-400 when it was released, and its excellent.
Indeed. I have the pxs3000. Chose that model over the competition for the excellent features and overall sound. The pivot point is bothersome but is only a minor issue for me really. But sadly over time the key bed is becoming loose and making more noise - nasty clicking sounds if you hit the black keys to the side even slightly. They don't do that when they are new. I'm curious if the current models will maintain the key bed quality over time. If so I just may have to upgrade!
The watch and calculator business are long gone, maybe that gave them more time or resources, this review is eye-opening. I had a Casio long ago, it was nothing like this.
I love what they have done. I like recommending Casio to people especially students. I think the action to value gives you something to work with and grow with. But I was not happy with how the action responded. I was not able to get lost in "playing the piano." I would really need to sit again in front of this and or play it in a working environment. I am willing to give it a second chance for sure. Maybe it was the color, Mustard might play better than black.
My daughter's had a PX-310 for years now. I'm no keyboardist, but I'm still impressed with the action of that thing. Sounds are a bit lackluster compared to what's out there nowadays, but it's still a pretty solid choice on the used market.
Sounds nice I gotta say that I really love my Yamaha P-125, I watched a lot of your videos and others to decide on the Yamaha. I know I'll be back someday when it's time for another piano, awesome videos and information.
Yesterday I had an opportunity to try it while choosing appropriate instrument for my daughter, quite an outstanding experience! It is a special appearance on the market, reminding me of many modern car colours as well as of the design of the best furniture architects from the seventies. We used to see such sofas and tables in era of bauhaus, concept of modern living in flats with geometrical lines and new functionality of the epoque. Wooden keys and attractive outstandness make this model special indeed! Sounds of course follow Casio's fight for offering the most modern concepts on strongly competitive segment of musical instruments market.
Casio Bluetooth dongle is version 5.0. Ver 5.2 is already out on the market. Of course like any other tech, there will constantly be new iterations. I speculate this is Casio's strategy to allow piano owners to upgrade the Bluetooth version just by buying a new dongle and not a new piano. Newer versions improve power consumption, range and data transfer speed. As a reference, Roland FP-30X only has Bluetooth audio Ver 3.0 and MIDI Ver 4.0. Maybe that is part of the reason some users are struggling with pairing problem?
Hey Jeremy...Glad you found your ideal Keyboard. Casio really upped the game, and lot of nice touches there, way better keyboard, Light, Portable, and a higher quality Piano patch. That's all great, but it comes with a hefty price tag as well. Anyway, enjoy the new board, you rock!
At 5:39 can someone tell me the name of the song he’s playing, I’ve used Siri, Bixby many websites and it’s driving me crazy cuz it sounds so good and I want to play it but can’t find it, any help appreciated, thanks in advance :)
Can't wait for your review of this. I was falling in love at first sight with it. It's a statement, it's the kind of appearance pianos have to be nower days😉😎👍👍👍also the massiv wood, modern and timless at the same time. I like the brand, Greetings from Germany Jeremy 😊
Hiya Jeremy, I’m shocked you reviewed the piano so highly. I work as a professional pianist and got this the day they came out. Since then have returned it as it’s so lengthy to access any of the functions for a live gig. I know they don’t want to ruin the design but putting a touch screen so it would have been great if they had a dedicated app for this piano so a musician working on stage could access the functions it allows much more quickly than the lengthy way they have you pressing all the touch buttons. Works nicely as a piano for rehearsing choirs but doesn’t actually get as loud of my Kawai ES8 and it’s meant to have a much more powerful speaker system. I wonders if you have any thoughts on these 2 things? Enjoyed your video as always.
Hey Angelo, we need to look at the PX-S for its intended market. This was never intended or marketed as a pro-level gigging board. A Nord or CP is marketed as such. Instead it is a beautifully designed home digital piano with high quality piano samples, an improved key action and is easily removed from the stand for an occasional performance. Think of it more as a more versatile Yammie CLP.
This thing is 25% more expensive than a Roland FP-90x. Is it really better than one? Just looking at how narrow it is front to back, I can't see how the key action could be comparable.
Love your stuff, Jeremy. (FYI: It's pronounced "flan-jer". A reference to the effect created back in the analog days when the engineer would place his hand on the rim (i.e. flange) of a reel to reel tape in order to change the pitch of the recorded sound.)
I know, it is not really comparable price wise. But how does the Roland FP-30X stand against this one regarding key action and sound clarity? It has also 264 polyphony and a good weighted key action. So in what exactly is the pxs-7000 better performing? question nr 2: If I plug the FP-30X to a audio-software where I can play the most qualitative HR sounds, would you still say that there is a difference between those two?
@@fletcherkhoo4389 many say the exact opposite. especially if you compare FP30X with the casio pxs1000/1100 or even with pxs5000. But I agree on the sound, it sounds synthetic somehow.
I really like that we get to hear so much playing in between talking points. If one wanted a longer keystick, is there anything up the range that could provide that?
i own a roland fp90 and the sound on this casio is incredible ! i bought my roland way before the release but if it would have been on the market i would totally buy it instead :P
@@cosmic_gate476 Well I'm glad I fell for it with Casio because the action feels really good, which combined with the features and form factor makes the digital piano really appealing.
$2500 for a modern keyboard is reasonable😂 Now try going on reverb to find a vintage EPiano without crying when you see the price and availability of Wurli’s and Rolands.
Excuse me Christian I would like to ask you a question I am looking for a keyboard with mostly Rhodes sounds and that has interaction with usb to my Daw Do you think that the Crumar that you quote would be a good choice?
Great review. I always hear people praising a Nord keyboard but the prices are so high ..a used one here in Canada was $5k. This one sounds like something ill look for in the used keyboard space.
I am the lead guitarist and vocal of my band. As a vocal, I always dreamt of playing piano and sing along. I am a complete beginner. Can you suggest me a piano with which I can learn and perform on stage if required.
How would you say this piano is for playing primarily advanced classical pieces? In the next few years I am going to be moving a lot and part of the reason this piano is attractive to me is because it is lightweight, has a few grand piano types built in, and is portable. There was another review that said the action/pivot of this piano would be troublesome for playing classical music because the pivot was the shortest on the market. Do you have any thoughts on this?
If you are referring to the particular keyboard action, response, etc., that is highly subjective to the particular individual, their training, experience and preferences, and would have to be tested hands on, something not able to be decided by description, written, or recorded evaluation. Check out the Roland RD-88 professional stage piano for half the price. It is also similarly compact and half the price of the big, heavy flagship Roland RD2000 stage piano.
@@jjacob25101 I've tried all the music stores I could but none have this piano, so while I'd love to try it I can't. I will probably blind buy and return if it isn't right. I'm between this and the Kawaii es920 and will choose between those.
I like so much I really like the music played at the beginning and I see a lot in your videos and I would like to know the name of this wonderful work🥺
Thanks for the review Jeremy! Pretty cool and versatile piano, but . . . affordable? Not really; you can buy a Yamaha DGX-670 for studio production, a P125 or PXS1100 to gig with, and have over $1000 left over (and no audio interface in the USB port - I don't understand why Casio STILL hasn't started including that).
I always get a kick out of catching snippets of songs we play in church in your demos. I *do* have a problem with attaching the term "affordable" to a $2,000+ keyboard. Once you're into four digits you're solidly into "High end", especially given your description of the technical and aesthetic excellence of the instrument. Have you looked at Studiologic's NumaXPiano? We recently purchased one for our church and the keyboardist who plays it is enthralled with it. Given Studiologic is the "retail" front end for Fatar, you're getting a truly top of the line keybed. And for a bit more money, the NumaXPianoGT includes real wood keys much like the PX-S7000. That guitar lick you played in the "things I wish were better" section, was that "You Won't Relent"? I haven't heard that in quite a while.
Great review, Jeremy. But this is not the piano/keyboard of MY dreams, simply because I am not a performer. I am strictly a songwriter. So I want an arranger keyboard which has a great selection of sounds and styles to select from in various MODERN genres, especially Pop, Country, and Hip Hop/Dance. I would use a keyboard only in the studio to develop arrangements for my songs. So which keyboards have the best selection of such arrangements and that can import MIDI for melodies from my computer (which I have constructed from doing notation)? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.
If you don't need the weighted hammer action 88 keys, the 76 key Yamaha PSR-EW425 would be perfect for you at ⅕ the price of this one. Check the review videos from Jeremy snd others. I would get that, and might in the future. And I am very selective. The Yamaha has good USB compatibility over other keyboards with just a Micro USB jack.
Thanks for the review! If you don’t mind, please put the name of the keyboards in your comment or in the title. It will make it far easier for your viewers to actually understand what your video is about. Thanks so much!
Jeremy I'm done to Roland P90X and this. 32 watts vs 60 watt 32lb vs 52lbs Both have mic inputs Whats best for gigging in restaurants, nursing homes and busking. Is casio loud enough and do you think the keys will last on the Casio. Thank you Mj
I got the FP90x. One advantage of the pxs7000 for one-man-band gigging is that it already has built-in ready-to-use rhythms. With the FP90x, you need to use the Roland piano app to have access to rhythms. Fan of both Casio and Roland here.
Memory of Fanelia, from the Escaflowne soundtrack? Have not seen Escaflowne series, but came across the music from it years ago on youtube and fell in love with the Fanelia tune, which I think your intro is some variation of. And me, being a Norwegian, recognizing that tune in your video, having never seen any anime, is quite surprising even to me. I hope someone (Jeremy See) can confirm if it is the same tune tune, or inspired by it.
I agree with you regarding the ridiculous lack of modulation wheel. Why Casio also didn't include a couple of real-time control knobs or sliders is also questionable because the lower speced PXS6000 has them. I sold my PXS3000 because of its glaring lack of modulation wheel as well as its terrible user interface and bought a Roland RD88 and haven't looked back. Over AUD$4000 for this instrument is truly ridiculous in these tough economic times. Sorry but I'll pass this time and check out the when it's released in a couple of years at a lower price point and includes both pitch bend and modulation wheels.
Yellow Pages comes to mind, would love a portable piano such as this but with the Bechstein action, and better samples. It sounds okay though. However I am not swayed and will buy a Roland G8 instead, older but more substantial although much heaver to carry.
The only thing i would complain about is the wireless MIDI . Would be great to have DIN5 plugs to connect to other devices/synth that just have midi plugs and no bluetooth
Agree with you 100%. I'd much sooner spend the same money on a Yamaha YC73 or YC88.. They may not be as compact and lightweight as the Casio as well as lacking battery power, but they leave the Casio in the dust in every other respect.

It also has 264 polyphony and a good weighted key action. So in what exactly is the pxs-7000 better performing?
question nr 2: If I plug the FP-30X to a audio-software where I can play the most qualitative high resolution sounds, would you still say that there is a difference between those two?
@@zjaeger1800 Hello, not an expert he he but I can surely share my opinion with you :) I haven't seen the PX-S7000 in person yet to judge action and sound quality. I have played the FP30X and the FP90X, as well as I owned the FP50 and the RP401R (both discontinued now and are about 6 years old). I have also played the PX-S1000, PX-S3100, and PX-S1100. I think the wisest choice is the FP30X. I don't think the PX-S7000 gives you a lot more in terms of sound and key action. However, the PX-S7000 is a prettier piano. It is more about looks and fit and finish rather than being more functional than the FP30X. For $2,500, I would buy a Yamaha CLP725 or Kawai CA49 here in the US, which are much better choices than the Casio PX-S7000. Or I would buy a Yamaha CP88 or MODX8+, or a Kawai MP7SE. There are too many professional products at that price range that are way better than the PX-S7000. But again, if you just want a good looking piano, the PX-S7000 seems to be a very good choice.
Regarding your second question: I am not sure if you mean to use the FP30X as a MIDI controller of vst sounds, or you mean to record the internal Roland sounds via a DAW... I think either way the Roland gives you a more functional performance for much less money. I hope this helps... still the best way to decide would be to test them in person.
Just bought one because this piano is very special ! The sounds are wonderfull !
Looks beautiful and sleek
I've been using a Casio PX-5s now for the last four years or so. I find it a beautiful keyboard. It contains many usable sounds, a sequencer and tons of other useful things.
I can also operate it with power supply or batteries. It's light and so easy to transport. Who needs a red coloured keyboard when you can have a white Casio for a fraction of the price. Great review.
Hows the acoustic sound? Need something that sounds like a baby grand.
@@crazywisdom2 The acoustic sound on the PX5-S is the same as you hear in the beginning of this video but the PX-S7000 also has some other piano samples which I more like. You will not find any digital piano on the market that will come as close as the sound generated from a real grand by its vibrating strings.
I would recommend you using a very good midi controller or digital piano and using the best available piano VST's there are to get as close as you can.
My ex wife has just taken my Casio PX880 piano as part of her "share" of the house content. Taking it away from me and my kids and put it in a shipping container. Time to start saving again to buy another piano. Maybe thus would be a good upgrade. Thanks for the review
That is a wonderful DP. Your review is incredibly comprehensive. Outstanding.
Recently bought the Nord Grand, and honestly one of the best digital pianos I've ever played on. Pretty pricey, though, but well worth it
Nord’s pianos, and synthesizers are smooth as silk. Simply amazing products….
Yeah, nothing touches the Nord grand in my experience
I have Roland as my brand preference, but like Yamaha and Casio, the other brands not so much, but I acknowledge that Nord is definitely top tier for the discriminating professional keyboardist if they find it to there liking, and all the features and qualities suits them. Pricey, yes, but you get what you pay for, and it is well worth the price if it is what you are willing to pay it.
@@hlcotten6587 What great about the Nords is lots of upgradability with voices. But Roland, Yamaha and Casio have their own perks. It also depends on the player, with their perspective, personal tastes, training and proficiency, what they need and want, what sounds, features, aesthetics and tactile feel and response of the keyboard, and many other factors. If it works for you and makes you happy, and are not problematic, like dependable, reliable automobiles, it's a win, and the plus is so options out there.
@@tshoob So many different choices available subject to numerous factors, and what the player wants and needs. I love the Nords, like those nice upscale vehicles, but other brands have their own perks, music is not my main craft or vocation, not s professional gigging musician, composer, though very music into music from when I was very young. My present more affordable keyboards and gear like my Roland Go:Keys, JD-Xi, and my Casiotone CT-S1 and simply, but versatile Yamaha PSS-A50 suit me fine for what I need and have time for. I have had expensive keyboards in the past, but presently don't need, or have time to make use of upper tier keyboards, done with 76 or 88 weighted keys, but when I do, Roland has exactly what I would want for less than the top of the line flagships costs and extra size and bulk with the RD 88, Fantom 06/07 and V-Combo VR-09B. With all the options at different price levels, we can't lose if it suits our purposes and makes us happy.
I don't know what sounds more magical, the piano, or this dudes voice!
Thanks for the kickass review.
Casio in recent years have been killing it. I like this keyboard. I agree the pivot point is my biggest gripe, but that's the result of the narrow compact design. I have a Casio GP-400 when it was released, and its excellent.
Indeed. I have the pxs3000. Chose that model over the competition for the excellent features and overall sound. The pivot point is bothersome but is only a minor issue for me really. But sadly over time the key bed is becoming loose and making more noise - nasty clicking sounds if you hit the black keys to the side even slightly. They don't do that when they are new. I'm curious if the current models will maintain the key bed quality over time. If so I just may have to upgrade!
The watch and calculator business are long gone, maybe that gave them more time or resources, this review is eye-opening. I had a Casio long ago, it was nothing like this.
What is this pivot point you speak of.
CASIO keys just keep getting better. 👌 Thanks,
I love what they have done. I like recommending Casio to people especially students. I think the action to value gives you something to work with and grow with. But I was not happy with how the action responded. I was not able to get lost in "playing the piano." I would really need to sit again in front of this and or play it in a working environment. I am willing to give it a second chance for sure. Maybe it was the color, Mustard might play better than black.
My daughter's had a PX-310 for years now. I'm no keyboardist, but I'm still impressed with the action of that thing. Sounds are a bit lackluster compared to what's out there nowadays, but it's still a pretty solid choice on the used market.
Ahh, Merry-go-round of Life, a fantastic song to start a video on and one I really wanna learn once I get a piano. Good taste Jeremy!
You can do it!
@@JeremySee Thanks for the encouragement dude :D
Sounds nice I gotta say that I really love my Yamaha P-125, I watched a lot of your videos and others to decide on the Yamaha. I know I'll be back someday when it's time for another piano, awesome videos and information.
Yesterday I had an opportunity to try it while choosing appropriate instrument for my daughter, quite an outstanding experience! It is a special appearance on the market, reminding me of many modern car colours as well as of the design of the best furniture architects from the seventies. We used to see such sofas and tables in era of bauhaus, concept of modern living in flats with geometrical lines and new functionality of the epoque. Wooden keys and attractive outstandness make this model special indeed! Sounds of course follow Casio's fight for offering the most modern concepts on strongly competitive segment of musical instruments market.
Just wanted to let you know that you've been my greatest help regarding getting a piano.
Your videos are always 🔥
Greetings from India
❤️
Casio Bluetooth dongle is version 5.0. Ver 5.2 is already out on the market. Of course like any other tech, there will constantly be new iterations. I speculate this is Casio's strategy to allow piano owners to upgrade the Bluetooth version just by buying a new dongle and not a new piano. Newer versions improve power consumption, range and data transfer speed.
As a reference, Roland FP-30X only has Bluetooth audio Ver 3.0 and MIDI Ver 4.0. Maybe that is part of the reason some users are struggling with pairing problem?
Excellent video with some great camera work - appreciated
Hey Jeremy...Glad you found your ideal Keyboard. Casio really upped the game, and lot of nice touches there, way better keyboard, Light, Portable, and a higher quality Piano patch. That's all great, but it comes with a hefty price tag as well. Anyway, enjoy the new board, you rock!
At 5:39 can someone tell me the name of the song he’s playing, I’ve used Siri, Bixby many websites and it’s driving me crazy cuz it sounds so good and I want to play it but can’t find it, any help appreciated, thanks in advance :)
Hey, I would be happy just to have my old $100 1990 Casio back. Miss having a keyboard. Thanks for your reviews. Am saving up.
The moonlight sonata at 10:00 did not sound good- was it a limitation of the action or a limitation of the player?
player. I'm not a concert pianist.
OMG ITS FINALLY HAPPENING
I did see quite every single digital piano reviews in the past
incredible review dude, all i needed to know!!!
If only we could get Casio to have an even bigger color finish selection!
But Harmonious Mustard is awesome!
Can't wait for your review of this. I was falling in love at first sight with it. It's a statement, it's the kind of appearance pianos have to be nower days😉😎👍👍👍also the massiv wood, modern and timless at the same time. I like the brand, Greetings from Germany Jeremy 😊
Would love to see a comparison video between this and the Yamaha DGX 670
Sounds as beautiful as it looks 💗
Hiya Jeremy, I’m shocked you reviewed the piano so highly. I work as a professional pianist and got this the day they came out. Since then have returned it as it’s so lengthy to access any of the functions for a live gig. I know they don’t want to ruin the design but putting a touch screen so it would have been great if they had a dedicated app for this piano so a musician working on stage could access the functions it allows much more quickly than the lengthy way they have you pressing all the touch buttons. Works nicely as a piano for rehearsing choirs but doesn’t actually get as loud of my Kawai ES8 and it’s meant to have a much more powerful speaker system. I wonders if you have any thoughts on these 2 things? Enjoyed your video as always.
Hey Angelo, we need to look at the PX-S for its intended market. This was never intended or marketed as a pro-level gigging board. A Nord or CP is marketed as such. Instead it is a beautifully designed home digital piano with high quality piano samples, an improved key action and is easily removed from the stand for an occasional performance. Think of it more as a more versatile Yammie CLP.
I would get a Roland RD-88 stage piano for half the price.
You can use a iPad or other tablet on the music rack to access features more quickly!
This review is so well done! 🎉 Thanks!
I use the Casio CT-S300 to practice and learn new songs. I use the Casio Privia PX-560 for playing. It's easier to move around and use the CT-S300.
This thing is 25% more expensive than a Roland FP-90x. Is it really better than one? Just looking at how narrow it is front to back, I can't see how the key action could be comparable.
Love your stuff, Jeremy. (FYI: It's pronounced "flan-jer". A reference to the effect created back in the analog days when the engineer would place his hand on the rim (i.e. flange) of a reel to reel tape in order to change the pitch of the recorded sound.)
ITS SO PRETTY
Heya! Jeremy! Great to see u here!
:)
Although I'm not feeling the color, I like that they went with a unique tone to stand out in the market. Everything is either black or gray.
I wish there were a couple of other colours outside of black and white, also. A dark mystic blue or something. The PX-S1000 in red looked quite nice.
I would get this just for the unusual designed & look...This should look cool on stage.
I know, it is not really comparable price wise. But how does the Roland FP-30X stand against this one regarding key action and sound clarity?
It has also 264 polyphony and a good weighted key action. So in what exactly is the pxs-7000 better performing?
question nr 2: If I plug the FP-30X to a audio-software where I can play the most qualitative HR sounds, would you still say that there is a difference between those two?
FP-30X is no way in the league....In fact the whole FP series right up to Fp90 is disappointing in terms of sound and key action.
@@fletcherkhoo4389 many say the exact opposite. especially if you compare FP30X with the casio pxs1000/1100 or even with pxs5000. But I agree on the sound, it sounds synthetic somehow.
I really like that we get to hear so much playing in between talking points.
If one wanted a longer keystick, is there anything up the range that could provide that?
i own a roland fp90 and the sound on this casio is incredible ! i bought my roland way before the release but if it would have been on the market i would totally buy it instead :P
I have a pxs3100 and I'm crazy about the psx7000, in a mix of vintage and modern is so... such pretty...
This keyboard has an interesting design. I have never seen a keyboard with these many features.
You are ignoring the $850 Yamaha DGX-670 - has way more features.
That's what Casio does, they have the worst key action with the best features for the money. Don't fall for it
@@cosmic_gate476 Well I'm glad I fell for it with Casio because the action feels really good, which combined with the features and form factor makes the digital piano really appealing.
The action still is hampered by a very short pivot point. This will affect more delicate and complex playing. Be aware of that.
Thanks for the video. I’d probably buy this to replace my Casio Privia. Love the color.
Thank you Sir! I have been waiting for this review. :)
at $2500, this is a very expensive piano, and needs to be compared with similarly priced units like yamaha P515, roland rs2000, kawai ES920, etc.
Sound and longevity wise also the CLP 745
I stick to my used euro made all solid wood studio used around 5k…30 plus yer old😢…y my newer Korg
💯 Agree I just can't get over the price!!!! Way too much for these times, especially!
Yeah I could never afford it..
$2500 for a modern keyboard is reasonable😂
Now try going on reverb to find a vintage EPiano without crying when you see the price and availability of Wurli’s and Rolands.
When you are more into electric and rhodes sounds checkout the Crumar seventeen for 1000 less. Its blue and it has piano samples too.
Excuse me Christian I would like to ask you a question I am looking for a keyboard with mostly Rhodes sounds and that has interaction with usb to my Daw
Do you think that the Crumar that you quote would be a good choice?
Casio surprises by always upping their game. I want this in red, please casio if you read this.
I have so been waiting to see what your opinion of this beautiful instrument would be
got my back order in 8-10 weeks...... just had to have the yellow.... black ones are available locally.
Can you do Yamaha PSR-EW425 vs Korg EK-50 L? Please
He has a video about the PSR EW 425
I bought it and I'm very happy with it
Best to buy a Kawai VPC-1 and Pianoteq 7 and a decent pair of Active monitors.
I like the design of this piano very much!
Great review. I always hear people praising a Nord keyboard but the prices are so high
..a used one here in Canada was $5k.
This one sounds like something ill look for in the used keyboard space.
I am the lead guitarist and vocal of my band.
As a vocal, I always dreamt of playing piano and sing along. I am a complete beginner. Can you suggest me a piano with which I can learn and perform on stage if required.
Wow what a bold color choice I love it
How would you say this piano is for playing primarily advanced classical pieces? In the next few years I am going to be moving a lot and part of the reason this piano is attractive to me is because it is lightweight, has a few grand piano types built in, and is portable. There was another review that said the action/pivot of this piano would be troublesome for playing classical music because the pivot was the shortest on the market. Do you have any thoughts on this?
If you are referring to the particular keyboard action, response, etc., that is highly subjective to the particular individual, their training, experience and preferences, and would have to be tested hands on, something not able to be decided by description, written, or recorded evaluation.
Check out the Roland RD-88 professional stage piano for half the price.
It is also similarly compact and half the price of the big, heavy flagship Roland RD2000 stage piano.
@@jjacob25101 I've tried all the music stores I could but none have this piano, so while I'd love to try it I can't. I will probably blind buy and return if it isn't right. I'm between this and the Kawaii es920 and will choose between those.
My dream piano also
What about the ca 49
1:10 song name please 😭
gymnopedie
Eric satre i think
I like so much I really like the music played at the beginning and I see a lot in your videos and I would like to know the name of this wonderful work🥺
Merry Go Round of Life (Howl’s moving castle)
Great sounds as always, but come on Casio, where is the 16 track recorder?
Thanks for the review Jeremy! Pretty cool and versatile piano, but . . . affordable? Not really; you can buy a Yamaha DGX-670 for studio production, a P125 or PXS1100 to gig with, and have over $1000 left over (and no audio interface in the USB port - I don't understand why Casio STILL hasn't started including that).
Agreed, I would just spend half the price of this and get a Roland RD 88 that can do all of that except battery power.
@@jjacob25101 lol, have you played that thing? Roland is like driving a truck in a tight space, this machine is a Ferrari - a mustard yellow Ferrari !
I always get a kick out of catching snippets of songs we play in church in your demos.
I *do* have a problem with attaching the term "affordable" to a $2,000+ keyboard. Once you're into four digits you're solidly into "High end", especially given your description of the technical and aesthetic excellence of the instrument.
Have you looked at Studiologic's NumaXPiano? We recently purchased one for our church and the keyboardist who plays it is enthralled with it. Given Studiologic is the "retail" front end for Fatar, you're getting a truly top of the line keybed. And for a bit more money, the NumaXPianoGT includes real wood keys much like the PX-S7000.
That guitar lick you played in the "things I wish were better" section, was that "You Won't Relent"? I haven't heard that in quite a while.
Great review, Jeremy. But this is not the piano/keyboard of MY dreams, simply because I am not a performer. I am strictly a songwriter. So I want an arranger keyboard which has a great selection of sounds and styles to select from in various MODERN genres, especially Pop, Country, and Hip Hop/Dance. I would use a keyboard only in the studio to develop arrangements for my songs. So which keyboards have the best selection of such arrangements and that can import MIDI for melodies from my computer (which I have constructed from doing notation)? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.
If you don't need the weighted hammer action 88 keys, the 76 key Yamaha PSR-EW425 would be perfect for you at ⅕ the price of this one. Check the review videos from Jeremy snd others. I would get that, and might in the future. And I am very selective. The Yamaha has good USB compatibility over other keyboards with just a Micro USB jack.
Thanks for the review!
If you don’t mind, please put the name of the keyboards in your comment or in the title.
It will make it far easier for your viewers to actually understand what your video is about.
Thanks so much!
Jeremy
I'm done to Roland P90X and this.
32 watts vs 60 watt
32lb vs 52lbs
Both have mic inputs
Whats best for gigging in restaurants, nursing homes and busking.
Is casio loud enough and do you think the keys will last on the Casio.
Thank you
Mj
I got the FP90x. One advantage of the pxs7000 for one-man-band gigging is that it already has built-in ready-to-use rhythms. With the FP90x, you need to use the Roland piano app to have access to rhythms.
Fan of both Casio and Roland here.
9:56 I love the 3rd movement
Why does the yellow color cost $200 more than the black or white?
Just another way for Casio to rip off it's customers.
Memory of Fanelia, from the Escaflowne soundtrack? Have not seen Escaflowne series, but came across the music from it years ago on youtube and fell in love with the Fanelia tune, which I think your intro is some variation of. And me, being a Norwegian, recognizing that tune in your video, having never seen any anime, is quite surprising even to me.
I hope someone (Jeremy See) can confirm if it is the same tune tune, or inspired by it.
@JeremySee is it? Very curious here too, it's beautiful!
Found it below: Joe Hisaishi - Merry-Go-Round of Life (from “Howl’s Moving Castle”) ruclips.net/video/2pQKqQ9sG50/видео.html
What format are the samples in? Will EP/digital piano manufacturers ever play DSD samples or will they be forever stuck in the 16/24bit PCM world?
Very unique color. And the buttons are very rare.
What’s the song you start playing at 1:10? I’ve noticed you use it a lot in your demo videos. I recognize it…I just can’t remember where from
Can someone tell me the name of the first piece he is playing?
I feel like there's no point in offering a pitch wheel without a mod wheel alongside it. There's plenty of space for both as well.
I agree with you regarding the ridiculous lack of modulation wheel. Why Casio also didn't include a couple of real-time control knobs or sliders is also questionable because the lower speced PXS6000 has them. I sold my PXS3000 because of its glaring lack of modulation wheel as well as its terrible user interface and bought a Roland RD88 and haven't looked back. Over AUD$4000 for this instrument is truly ridiculous in these tough economic times. Sorry but I'll pass this time and check out the when it's released in a couple of years at a lower price point and includes both pitch bend and modulation wheels.
Excellent review, as always!
Yellow Pages comes to mind, would love a portable piano such as this but with the Bechstein action, and better samples. It sounds okay though. However I am not swayed and will buy a Roland G8 instead, older but more substantial although much heaver to carry.
Lol the Roland g8 and this are not substitutionary goods in almost any sense. They serve completely different purposes and markets.
Great video! If I manage to catch a cash windfall somewhere's...
What im a little afraid is the touch aspect, doesnt seem sturdy enough
what is that song at the beginning
Jeremy plz make a comparison video between this and roland fp 90x
Sounds like a good keyboard. I still prefer the Casio Privia PX-560. Hopefully they will update it for next year's NAMM. Can always hope!
I have a Nord Stage 3, it absolutely blows my mind. Have you tried it compared to this Casio?
Thank you for your videos there are always good!
Wow, this is a beautiful machine, Jeremy, thanks for taking it through the paces! Have you tested or do you plan to test the Arturia KeyLab 61?
The only thing i would complain about is the wireless MIDI . Would be great to have DIN5 plugs to connect to other devices/synth that just have midi plugs and no bluetooth
hi sir jeremy. what are the titles of the sample song you played here. thanks
It sounded very nice indeed Jeremy, but then I checked the price online. It costs as much as a CP or YC stage piano. I mean, no comparison.
Agree with you 100%. I'd much sooner spend the same money on a Yamaha YC73 or YC88.. They may not be as compact and lightweight as the Casio as well as lacking battery power, but they leave the Casio in the dust in every other respect.
That's a good looking piano I like the mustard color
Awesome. Thank you Jeremy
