Keyboard

  • 88 keys with Tri-Sensor II hammer action: reproduces the resistance and feel of an acoustic piano.
  • 3 sensors to detect the speed and intensity of each keystroke.
  • Ebony and ivory feel keys: slightly textured surface prevents slipping, just like on a grand piano.
  • Adjustable sensitivity: 3 levels to adapt the keyboard response to a light or strong touch.
  • Hammer response: 4 levels + off. Adjusts how quickly the hammer mechanism reacts.

  • 22 built-in tones: pianos, strings, organs… to explore different musical styles.
  • String resonance (4 levels, off): imitates the natural vibration between strings on an acoustic piano.
  • Sustain pedal with half-pedal function (4 levels, off): recognizes partial pedal pressure to control note length more precisely.
  • Volume Sync EQ: automatically balances the sound at low volume to keep all nuances.

Effects

Magnificent piano, well designed, although it still needs to be adjusted at the key level (noise) which I haven't done yet, I've only had the piano for two days, but it's a great playground. Many possibilities for playing, sounds, which I hope will allow me to progress, as I am a beginner.

I recommend this piano. After searching for several weeks for reviews on different brands. Equipment. We felt that it was rather well referenced.. we were not disappointed with our purchase. A quality equipment with a sound that is stunningly true. Why buy a real piano?

The touch is good. The sound is pleasant. The nuances are good as well. Possibility to record and listen to your track later via USB key. Very appreciable feature. Meets my expectations with an affordable quality/price ratio.

Perfect for getting back to piano after many years without playing. Easy to install and well made, a very good value for money. Delivery time a bit long but it was worth the wait.

The piano was perfectly protected, after a quick assembly it reveals a great sound, enough to spend hours repeating our favorite melodies.

It will take me some time to perfectly understand all the different settings so that this piano gives me its maximum satisfaction. It notably arrived raw at the keyboard level, very hard. I am only beginning to discover the different settings for a lighter touch very close to the keyboard of an acoustic piano, and also for a beautiful balanced sound. Although not made of wood and ivory like the keyboards of acoustic pianos, the material of the keys of the Casio AP 470 is very pleasant, and my fingers no longer slip like on the Yamaha Clavinova that I used for a few years. At this level, I am delighted! After a few days of use, I am beginning to "understand" the functioning of this piano and I am satisfied with it. It promises beautiful hours of musical happiness to the pianist that I am and who is "starting again" after more than 20 years without a piano! Quality/price ratio, it is a quality instrument, of which I will probably not use all the functions, nor all the sounds outside the piano. Its price is affordable for a limited budget.... (Show more)
