Casio CTS500 Portable Keyboard

Casio CT-S500 Keyboard
The new Casio CTS-500 keyboard shares many features of the CTS1000V minus the vocal synthesis technology.

Packed with the same 800 high-quality AIX sounds and 243 automatic accompaniments, the CTS 500 is a modern approach to a traditional keyboard concept.

Don't be fooled by the compact size of the CTS 500, it sounds fantastic and gives you all the tools you need for musical creativity.

The assignable real-time control knobs output MIDI control messages so you can record your performance directly into your favourite digital audio workstation software.

A wireless Bluetooth WU-BT10 dongle is included in the package so you can stream audio via Bluetooth as well as wireless MIDI.

The built-in sampler allows you to record sounds from an external source either from the audio input or USB, And then play these sounds on the keyboard.

Sustain and expression pedal inputs can be found on the rear as well as a USB midi connection.

The bass reflex speaker system means the CTS 500 packs a punch for such a small instrument.

The CTS 500 has 61 touch-sensitive keys for maximum expression.
