The design of instruments to enjoy at home is also important.Acoustic guitars and ukuleles are often used as interiors because they are often used in rooms because they are trees.On the other hand, when it comes to electronic keyboards, the housing is large and the knobs and buttons are messed up, and many people feel that the "gadget feeling" does not fit in the room.For those who value such design, CASIOTONE's "CT-S1" is recommended.

CASIOTONE is a historic electronic keyboard brand revived in 2019 when Casio celebrates its 40th anniversary.As a keyboard that anyone can handle and enjoy a good sound, it has been loved by many professionals / amateurs.Many models have substantial functions for beginners, and are also recommended for those who have never experienced musical instruments.

Among CASIOTONE, "CT-S1" is a slim body and has no visual pressure.The design is simple and consists only of keyboards, speakers and minimum buttons.The speaker is made of fabric materials that are used for cushions and sofas, making it a stylish design that fits any room.Will I float if I put an electronic keyboard in a simple room like my home?I thought, but I used it without any discomfort.By the way, this fabric material is an original fabric born after trial and error so that it does not adversely affect the sound.

The body color is available in three colors, white / black / red, all of which are suitable for men's rooms with a color that fits in the living space.

It is important to play keyboard instruments."CT-S1" adopts a box-shaped piano-shaped keyboard.Thanks to this keyboard, the feeling of pressed is clearly transmitted, so you can feel the fun of playing the instrument.

It is a low noise, a design that suppresses the rolling at the time of playing, and can be expressed smoothly from delicate touch to intense performance.I am also grateful that the touch response function (function that changes the volume changes depending on the strength of playing the keyboard) is indispensable for the performance expression.

The sound installed in the "CT-S1" is based on the developed AIX sound source in pursuit of expressiveness and reality as an instrument.It has a wide variety of 61 tones, such as acoustic pianos, electric pianos, organ, and synthesizers.Every tone has a high expressiveness, and it seems that any song, from classical to pops, can handle any song.

The operation panel has a sound switching button, which allows the main tone to switch by pressing it here.A nice point that you can operate intuitively.By pressing the button called Tone Variation, it can be switched to the other sound color of the same instrument as the main tone.When I thought about music production, when I thought, "It's not a bit of this tone ...", I personally felt that I could choose from a rich variety of quality.

Immediately, I played the sound of the acoustic piano.The tone is not a light tone that is common in electronic keyboards, but firmly captures the characteristics of the instrument."CT-S1" adopts the Casio's unique bass reflex mechanism Horizontal Bass-Reflex System (horizontal bath reflex speaker system).It is a speaker system that can achieve powerful sound even with a slim body, and expresses it in a fine manner to the low frequency.

The volume adjustment is controlled by the Volume knob on the left side of the operation panel, but there is also a secret that creates a good sound here.It is called a volume sync equalizer, and is a function that automatically adjusts the equalizer depending on the volume.If the volume is small, boost the low and high frequencies, and as the volume increases, it changes to a flat characteristics.It approaches the optimal sound quality that matches human hearing.Even if you have to lower the volume at night, you can listen to a beautiful tone.

What impressed me was the surround settings.Even if you play it off, you can hear it with a good sound thanks to the above -mentioned speaker system, but turning on this setting will spread the sound field.

In addition, I played various piano sounds because it was a great deal.In Modern mode, you can enjoy a crisp sound that suits modern pops, and in Vintage mode, you can enjoy withered sound suitable for jazz.What was particularly interesting was Advanced mode.A novel sound with a special effect called "Advanced Tones" is registered, for example, in the Piano Advanced mode, the sound of the strings will be laid if you play three or more sounds together.E.Piano and Synth have a complex effect that changes by tremolo effects and touch response.Such a slightly elaborate sound leads to an idea of composition.

Furthermore, more detailed functions are enhanced.It is equipped with a My set -up function that can be stored and called various settings, such as transparency, tuning, sustaine settings, sustaine settings, equalizers, sound regulations, tones, etc.With the equalizer function, it can be adjusted to the sound quality that emphasizes the low and high frequencies, or to the sound quality tailored to music genres such as rock / dance / jazz / classic.You can choose from 17 types, such as equal temperament and genuine Ritsu.

「CT-S1」に備わっている機能はこれだけではありません。RECボタンを押せば、自分の演奏を録音／再生できます。楽器練習では自分の音を客観的に聴くことが大切なので、この機能は助かりますね。さらに、別売りのワイヤレスMIDI & AUDIOアダプター「WU-BT10」を「CT-S1」に挿せば、Bluetoothオーディオで音楽を「CT-S1」のスピーカーから再生することが可能です。スマホやパソコンに保存した好きな楽曲を流して一緒に演奏するなど、練習もはかどるでしょう。

You can also use it as a MIDI keyboard if you make a USB connection.I'm glad that you can drive with this comfortable touch keyboard!It is very attractive to be able to use it as a standalone instrument and use it as a MIDI keyboard during music production.

The first instrument selection is also important as well as the ease of use.If you use a design that uses it and the tension goes up, you will feel like "let's touch more"."CT-S1" has both excellent design and fulfilling tone and functions, so I felt it was a long-lasting keyboard.If you are considering purchasing an electronic keyboard, why not pick up the "CASIOTONE CT-S1"?
