Amazon.com Product Description The slim, lightweight, and overall compact nature of Casio's Privia PX-100 digital piano means you can pack it just about anywhere. When you're not tickling its full 88 keys, you can stash the polyphonic keyboard in a closet, under a bed, or in other compact locations where most digital pianos refuse to fit. The scaled hammer-action keyboard offers touch sensitivity for beautiful piano tones and a feature called New Sound Source which is said to give the PX-100 sound quality to rival that of an actual grand piano. Auto-accompaniment provides exciting, dynamic, and realistic background arrangements for pop, jazz, rock, and a range of the other genres. The PX-100 can provide complete orchestral accompaniment on command, too. Other primary tones (voices) include strings and pipe organ, with 10 total tones. A layer feature allows simultaneous sounding of 2 tones, while a split feature lets you split the keyboard between 2 different tones. Lesson assembles functions that enhance your practice sessions, which you can devote to right-hand part only, left-hand part only, or both hands--whatever requires the most practice. You can also record songs for playback at a later point (up to 5,200 notes). An onboard metronome offers adjustable tempos and beats. Adding effects makes notes sound richer and deeper, and the PX-100 includes 8 effects: 4 reverbs and 4 choruses. Use the built-in music library to learn songs and develop coordination. There are 30 preloaded tunes plus memory storage for 10 downloadable songs. The PX-100's 30 preloaded piece include Chopin's Fantaisie-Impromptu Op.66, Satie's Gymnopedies 1, Beethoven's "Fuer Elise" and Sonata Op.27-2 "Moonlight" (first movement), as well as classic songs like "Over the Rainbow," "Someday My Prince Will Come," and "Let It Be."

Excellent value for money January 13, 2008 I was looking for a weighted midi keyboard, not necessarily with its own sound generation, and it was hard finding something at the $400-500 mark that felt good. Well, colour me surprised that the Casio has a very realistic feel, and it even sounds good.
The built-in speakers are not all that big, so they're fine for practicing on your own, but probably won't hold up if you're playing together with more than, oh, say a flute.
Also, if you're using this as a midi controler, make sure your host has velocity scaling, because I can't get velocities over 110 or so out of this thing, no matter how hard I hammer.
Also also, the pedal that comes with it is a simple affair. If you buy a better pedal make sure it has the right behaviour or is switchable, because the pedal that I have will sustain when *not* pressed, and damp when pressed. There doesn't seem to be a software setting to reverse that.
I'm ready to buy it but need questions answered PLEASE October 14, 2007 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
PLEASE tell me if i need to buy a usb cable? to use the midi in/out feature. does the midi in/out feature allow me to record songs i play then put them on my laptop?? please help! all info concerning what and how for recording and midi in/out is very very appreciated. i'm desperate to understand as i need to know and i'm dying to record songs i've created then put them on my laptop!! one last critical question is can i record my voice too then layer it over the piano piece i previously recorded? or do i have to while i'm recording? can i do this--record my voice singing? THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! PLEASE help!!!! (can you tell i'm frustrated? hahaha)
OK until it broke January 10, 2007 9 out of 13 found this review helpful
I bought a Casio PX-110 as a Christmas present for my 15 year old grandson who was learing to play the piano. After 10 months of careful use a single key stopped functioning correctly. I had the credit card receipt for the purchase, but not the original sales receipt. I sent Casio the paperwork I had plus a notarized letter on the circumstances of the purchase, per their request. Casio says they didn't receive the documents and would not repair it under warranty. Twice the Casio repair center said they would call me back and didn't. They wanted to charge me $257.00 to repair one key, which I declined to do, fearing another key would break, and bought a Yamaha keyboard instead. I feel that it is a serious quality problem when a keyboard breaks in less than a year, and a design problem when it costs over $250 to reair a simple problem.

Very Pleased August 26, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I am very happy with this product. It fits easily in the corner of my tiny dorm room and stores easily under my bed. The key action is great, and the sound is high quality. The "split" feature is perfect for jazz pianists; you can walk the bass guitar with your left hand, and play with your right. The pedal is a little flimsy, but serves it's purpose.
This piano is easy to move, easy to store, and fun to play. (not to mention it's VERY cheap)
