Bachus Senior Member Registered: 03/02/06 Posts: 7143	I was at musicstore.de today picking up my modx.. I saw that the casio mz-x500 on a sale for €444 Thats aa keyboard that launched 2 years ago at €999 I almost bought it... untill i touched the keys again, and realized this keybed would never sui me.. it feels sompy when played... tested it... the new ctx keyboards have the same keybed.. But if someone considered this Then this is your chance to get it almost for free.. _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

Sound quallity is reasonable.. Keybed is not my thing, actually its worse then any other brand.. Options are beyound any other arranger out there.. The interface is refreshing and with many pro features enlightened.. _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

TedS Member Registered: 04/28/06 Posts: 836 Loc: North Texas, USA	Hmm this is about $515 USD. But when I change the country to USA it doesn't appear in the list of products to buy. I've seen some on auction sites for $700-800. Was a little leery to buy used because I know from store displays that the keys don't hold up well. Bummer, they should have released this functionality in a module!

Yes... its still a casio.. - you can hear it - you can feel it - and you can see it Despite the inovativity... Its still a decade beyound pa700, psr s775 and Roland ea-7 Because thats he competition in the orrriginal price range.. Where they cought up in the piano department.. They haven’t done so in the aranger department.. _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net
