But it sell as an arranger so I compare the Casio with his competitors in the same price tag and imo it fails in sound and styles.

Look at the video content itself. The MZ2000 video's show arranger features. The MZ-X does not.

Sound for sound, Korg and Yamaha sound better at the $800 to $1100 price point.

It does not target typical arranger players in any of the video's so far... That should tell you something...

And when it comes to piano, organ, synth and digital piano sounds... It might actually sound equall or better then its competition in the same price area...

Try listening the organs for eamle on a real sterao, and not on a phone, and you will hear how good the rotary effects and organ sounds actually are... Same goes for DP and Piano...

Many people just love these Casio sounds for what they are, they play the px5s on all their gigs...becuase they love the typicall key performances of the Casio instruments.. Tough if you prefer other brands sounds thats quite okay, we all have our own preferences...

I use the pads most of the time; wouldn’t own a keyboard that did not have them.

If the I6 pads were used for things we want like the 4 pads on my Pa900, then it would be very desirable.

Could this be an addition on future keyboards?
