As reported by the AP There is a larger, more traditional cabinet style on the 270, and there is also a new "New York Grand" piano sample in addition to the one on the PX-270 There are 870 of them. As reported by the AP In addition to the bench, the 270 includes an armrest. As part of the With a much more significant speaker system and a slimmer and more modern cabinet, the 870 is a much more impressive product. The keyboard action is the same for both of them.
It made me laugh when I saw the ridiculous dimensions Amazon posted. Your point is well taken The flat surface is 12" deep. It's shaped like a piano, for goodness I am sure that you will love it anyway -- even if it isn't There are official specs that say you'll have 85 cubic inches, but actually, you'll get approximately Is 8 cubic inches in volume. It appears the site got its proportions mixed up with the deep chest freezer specifications! I am happy with my purchase, it works just as expected.
No, you do not need to buy the pedals
Selected User Reviews For Casio PX-870 WH Privia Digital Home Piano, White
For the past few years, I have owned a Yamaha DGX-S It has been about a year since I got both the 660 and the Krakauer Upright Piano and quite frankly, the samples are not up to scratch. The grand kids got to have the DGX-style, so I let them have it It cost me 660 dollars and I bought a PX-660 I am going with 870! Honestly, there are a lot of things I really like about this Piano, and many of them I had expected going in, but there were a few surprises. I would say the build quality is the weakest point of the keyboard. Yes, the stand is basically made of pressed wood with a plastic foot pedal bar, but the stand isn't as nice as the stand on the DGX-II. However, despite the extra $100 cost of the Yamaha foot pedal bar (in fairness, the Yamaha foot pedal bar was about $100 more), it is quite close, even though the Yamaha is a little more solid. Besides the keyboard itself, what's nice about the build is the rig itself. . . It is obvious that this thing is a tank and it falls a world away from the Yamaha keyboard in this aspect. You must see it to apprehend Keeping Electronic Voice Samples on hand (Electronic Voice Samples) is another area where PX-TECH can help A quality evaluation of the 870 reveals it to be superior to the Yamaha. Although the piano has samples that are far beyond the quality of the Yamaha, the DGX Sample Library has a larger number of samples (the one has about 500 voices while the other has just 19), so you must make sure you know exactly what you need here. This 4 layer piano sample is from a European Steinway Concert Grand Piano and I believe that this really shows how much effort they put into making sure the samples are high quality. Its sound effect filters such as the Damper Resonance and String Resonance, Hall Simulator, and Lid Simulator again far exceed what Yamaha can offer. It is notable that the Hall Simulator does experience significant differences in sound properties and quality as well as echo and reverberation. Sony put a lot of thought into this setting and it paid off in a big way. It was a much more generic implementation from Yamaha, where the features on their keyboard were rarely distinguished. In terms of the Lid Simulator, both keyboards are relatively similar here, but the Casio has a Piano without a lid and the Yamaha does not. Even so, both appear to deliver the quality you would expect from this type of device.
The Casio also shines with its String Resonance, this feature simply pushes everything for the Casio Piano simulation to the next level. I find that the Piano is a world away from what I was able to achieve with the Yamaha and considering that is the only functionality I needed from the Yamaha, I believe this is a much better fit than what the Yamaha offered (the PX-1). The 860 was decent, but its price was higher than its predecessor The keyboard I used for the 660 was not available at the time I bought it, and I may have purchased it Its keyboard is of low quality despite the fact that it costs almost three times as much With proper weighting, these synthetic replicas are composed of ebony and ivory. It's also important to note that the keys are weighted correctly, meaning they look, feel, and move precisely like an Acoustic Piano. It wouldn't be fair to say these keys are the best I've ever used. With the weighting that is as perfect as it gets and when you combine it with the ivory feel, you get a real 'Ivory' feel that I have never felt before with any Digital Piano I have played outside of the Casio line. My favorite part of the instrument is this, and it makes a very strong case for why I should purchase the whole line. A second aspect to the PX is A key feature of the 870 keyboard is that it has three sensors per key, which matches the response rate of a grand piano. When combined with the weighting and feel of the keys, this provides a novel feeling for a keyboard at this price point. Sound System* (hence the "*" in the name) consists of dual 20w amplifiers causing dual speakers to be positioned in a two-way pattern. This software creates a sound that bounces off various walls and ceilings in an attempt to emulate the sound of a grand piano. I have moments when I feel like this is working well and others where I wonder why a few notes aren't as clear as others. Although the DGX offers a good sound experience, I think the dual speakers pointed right at you from the DGX may be a bit distracting This is still a very powerful system and yet delivers just as much presence. As far as I'm concerned, there's pretty much a tie between the two teams. In terms of other features, the piano offers 256 note polyphony, which is pretty much the best in the most affordable price range. Using this method, even the most demanding pieces of classical music can be played without stumbling. Chordana for Piano is an app that has been customized to work with the PX-100 Casio is offering digital pianos in the x70 and Celviano x70 lines. It can also import midi files for transcription, as well as configure every aspect of the Piano without having to touch the keyboard itself. It can read pdf files of score sheets and turn the pages automatically it can also import score sheets from pdf files and turn pages on its own. Despite its limited functions, I don't think this is the best app I've ever seen (that's probably the Roland apps) among the apps developed by piano manufacturers, well only until you get into the $3500 range of digital pianos. My final thoughts are that this is a phenomenal purchase, and I am incredibly happy with the piano in the end. Up until the YDP-900, this was by far the best Yamaha of all time Arius Digital Pianos has an extensive consumer grade range as well as their Arius line of instruments. This is the best bang for the buck out there right now compared to Roland, Kawai, or Korg at this price range! This is a great piano by any standards, and it simply isn't available anywhere else at this price point anywhere!.
There is no better piano substitute than this. Because of the crappy keyboards I had from my youth, I did not even look at casios at first. There is no such thing as that here. You can't compare apples to oranges, but you can compare apples to There was no doubt in my mind that this unit was the clear choice. I have auditioned units from Yamaha, kawaii, Roland, Korg, and evening Nord. It's a little better, but still not much better, and at this price, it's difficult to beat. In the event that it broke tomorrow, I would go out and get another one.
Look at the keys. I have never played a piano before, and this is my first one. Due to this, I do not have anything to compare it with. In my opinion, I chose the Casio PX870 because I wanted to invest in a quality keyboard, not something with a lot of features. As for the piano keyboard itself, I was delighted with the quality of the actual keyboard. It's a pleasure to play, look at, and feel the keys. Despite the fact that I do not claim to have a great ear, I feel like this track has good tonal quality. There is no need to be concerned about the quality of the cabinet/stand. I did not expect it to be flat pack laminated fiber board. Of course, I anticipated this. As long as I do not mind it being in my living room, I do not mind it being there. Despite this, the plastic covers provided to cover the recessed screws and bolts in the cabinets are less than satisfactory. It was very thin plastic that was warped and torn and did not fit well. This is, of course, a trivial detail that can be fixed for maybe a dollar or two The hardware store sells 2 at a time. Embarrassing, but not life threatening. I'm applying pedal pressure to a foot pedal bar which is just a bit elevated off the hardwood floor, causing a noise as it bends down and strikes the floor. If you have a carpet, this shouldn't be an issue. The piano may be uneven in a home with old floors, but the actual piano is stable, so I think the problem is not with With a thin shim under the pedals, we can prevent this from happening. Despite plugging in my old 4th gen iPad and connecting through the USB port, I cannot charge it. In spite of the fact that I wrote this five years ago, I had wanted to keep this iPad on the music stand to serve as a dedicated piano device. It would have been nice to be able to leave it plugged into the piano with no worry about battery life. The USB port is not providing any power to the PC, but I thought this meant it was not powering the computer. In any case, I can run my iPhone from this port just fine. I realize the main reason for this port is to plug in a USB thumb drive for recording. You have to dig around for the USB ports. Would have been nice to have them in a more accessible location. On the whole, I am quite satisfied with my Here, I have mostly nitpicking complaints mixed in with a little snobbery. I think the piano itself is great, so that's the important thing.
A nice piano to play. I switched from an acoustic piano to the digital one. It takes a little time to adjust to the sound and to the balance. It took me a little more than 40 minutes to construct it by myself. Unless you want your power box sticking out for all to see, the piano cannot go flush with your wall since there is nowhere to hide the power box. My favorite feature is the key cover and the fact that the depth of the piano is half the size of my acoustic. I like this because it saves me It's beautiful how white it is. My only complaint is that the volume is not loud enough. In addition, there is no way to save settings (reverb, key strength, etc. ), so you have to adjust them every time you turn on your piano. Considering the fact that shipping was free, I chose to buy this item from Amazon instead of Guitar Center. A nice sounding white piano for a good price. This is great. I love.
There is no difference between the sound quality of this instrument and the $4,500 Yamaha keyboards I've played in the past. sounds and feels just like a real piano, both in terms of the piano sound and the harpsichord. The string setting is also a wonderful add-on. You will not be left wanting with this piano, because it is very suitable for an intermediate player. In addition, it is so easy to set up and I really appreciate.
