- Part 2 of a series of CT-S1000V review videos.
In this episode, Casio Chaos Theory dives deep into the Tones section, examining and exploring all of the many Tone shaping, sculpting and performance features on offer. Despite being a preset keyboard, the many tone modifying features on offer allow the user to drastically change and use the 800 Tones in a wide variety of ways.
Note that this video examines Tone shaping and modifying. For a demonstration of a variety of unaltered preset Tones, check out my previous video (33 Tones in 10 Minutes):

All raw audio from the CT-S1000V recorded directly from its line-out sockets into a Behringer U-Phoria UMC404HD sound interface, and then directly into a DAW (Mixcraft Pro Studio 9). No VSTs/ effects were used on the CT-S1000V raw audio, other than a Limiter to prevent any clipping.

This is the best advanced tutorial on TH-cam for the CT-S500 / 1000V. Please give us periodic updates as you learn more.
Thank you for the compliment, and I'm very glad to hear that my videos have helped. I hope to revisit the CT-S1000V again in future videos, though at the moment I have a load of other projects that I need to complete first. So many Casios, so little time!
Thank you, great information 👍
what is difference between hardware buttons "INSTRUMENT" and "TONE"?
Page 28 in the User Guide gives some details, but it seems that they do the same thing! I guess having the Tone and Lyric buttons next to each other allows you to clearly see the two playing modes and easily switch between them when playing the CT-S1000V. Of note, the CT-S500 replaces the "Tone" and "Lyric" buttons (in the Tone Mode Select section) with "Surround" and "ACTIVE DSP" buttons instead, with the "Tone" button still in the panel to the right of the display. I guess it's just Casio being Casio!
The DSP capability is pretty impressive when you consider its competitor's DSP1 can only be applied to the Main Voice, and DSP2 which can cover everything only has 12 modules. Here you seem to have 2 full fledged DSPs you can apply to two parts - something the manual doesn't make clear you can do.
I m wondering if all these features are applicable to the cts500?
They are indeed. The CT-S500 has the same Tones and the same effects/ Active DSPs as per the CT-S1000V.
AIX engine sounds very good but, it sounds even better layered with a Roland D'S and a Yamaha MX all together😁🎶🎹🎶
Play On
Thank you, very helpful video, I’ve got one, yesterday and I’m so noob 😊 my question is,is there any chance to separate rythms tempo from arpegiator, when I slow it down, both of them are the same tempos
I don't think that the arpeggiator tempo can be set separately from the rhythm tempo. The arpeggiator tempo is meant to sync with the rhythm tempo, otherwise things could get a bit crazy sounding!
Thank you for your answer 👍❤️
nice review, thanks! does it come with pre-assigned "instant-joy" on K1 and "forgot what time it is" on K2? :) looking forward to the next parts!
Of course! And K3 gives you the "OMG, I didn't know it could do THAT!" as well!
So if im right there is only one fixed LFO on cut off resonance and a HALF AMP envelope instead of ADSR only an AR AMP envelope. Am I right? great video.
Thanks for the compliment!
The LFO I used when using the LFO-WAH cut off is part of that individual DSP effect. Each DSP that incorporates an LFO has its own LFO independent of other DSPs. This can be heard when I layered two tones and applied two separate incidences the LFO-WAH, and could have different LFO speeds on each layer affecting the cut off parameter independently.
And you are correct that there is only an AR envelope available via the assignable knobs, though don't forget that there is also the keyboard sustain button. That does at least give you ASR. Also do bear in mind that the S1000V is primarily a preset keyboard rather than a synth, though you can do lots of wild things to the tones using the DSPs and combining that with AR envelopes.
Dam this is the only cheap rompler on the market that has at least 3 knobs for having attack, release and cutoff available, plus the exp pedal.
Come on guys let's be nice and put at least some 4-8 knobs on these keyboard, there's not even proper MIDI ports to use external ones.
