Several of us at the Casio music forum have been suggesting a 76-key, but weighted-as the PX-5S and PX-560 and others in their lightweight piano action group of instruments. We didn't get one. We got this instead. I guess the musicians who would prefer a piano-action instrument already have one-and the fact that these have USB and midi for "legacy" stuff-I use computers and hardware modules that still use mid DIN, and these CT series don't, I imagine these are being geared toward many younger players who may not have much in the way of midi DIN equipment, Casio I guess markets that which sells the most quickly. Survival in the marketplace means addressing your audience, and I guess older musicians like me-they must know we are already pretty well stocked up on their, and other's music noise-makers. They seem to innovate every few years-and then drop out. Many of us have also hinted at a possible CZ re-issue for example, Behringer has something, but its a tiny module, and I think it has become vaporware- don't see it anywhere. Maybe Casio sniffed it out, and the Behringer factory might be a little too close to Casio's! I believe Casio still has patents on the PD synthesis, I'd have to check. Could be why the Behringer CZ isn't around, or might be sold out everywhere, although I can't find anyone online that bought one yet. and weighted 76 keys, I think only Nord has one?
