Because of your former Video i bought this baby.... Its a lot of fun and its my beat machine in our band. I put some bigger letters on for controlling the 3 variations of each at low light and s. o.... Sounds good when connected to our PA/Monitors....nice toy, nice effects at low price...good to ensure there are crazy😉 people around the world like you, using no cutting edge Equipment and nevertheless having fun! Greetings from Germany
i played this one a few years ago mainly just the organ and synth sounds impressed me the biggest surprise for me was how awesome the slap bass sound was, it sounded so out of place compared to the other mediocre bass sounds…
AHL is one of my least favorite sound sources from Casio. AiX from the CT-X series is good in terms of sounds and rhythm styles, but the Song Bank is highly disappointing being nearly identical to the AHL Song Bank. HL and A^2 are my favorite sound sources, mainly because of their outstanding Song Bank with songs like Down in The Valley, Red River Valley, and Rasa Sayang.
AiX does without a doubt trump AHL. However, The organ and leslie emulator on the WK-7600 with its AHL chip is comparable to any other digital organ not costing thousands and thousands. Still use it to this day and Casio still haven't effectively replaced it, being a 76 key instrument with drawbar organ capabilities.
I've been looking for a keyboard, used or new, so I can start learning but at the same time i want something I won't just grow out of when I get good enough (optimistic, I know) and every time I find a keyboard with features I like you have it reviewed wonderfully. Thank you. I have my eyes set on a WK-3200 and a CTK-800, both used and in very good shape and a CT-S200 new, all for the same price. What would you say is better for me?
I'd definitely choose the WK-3200. Any Casio model that starts with WK is a class above the other Casios, they have more keys and lots of additional features :)
I just visited 2 music stores yesterday and I did play the Casio WK6600 and was impressed with the sounds but wow, I disgusted at all the keyboards made that do not have 5 pin din midi! Even some of the pro keyboards from Roland, Akai, and Yamaha did not have a midi in or out port. So my choices for controlling my midi devices were very very limited,to OLD keyboards only or expensive workstations and some cheesy small controllers. This casio here sounds like the WK6600. I am amazed at how Casio has come a long way with the beats and sounds since the 90s!
Ah, that funny old guy, yes I reviewed him long long ago. It's got a good sound as I recall, but a cryptic interface and very flimsy build. I'll get the link, hold the phone...
Actually maybe not ...I think I know the one you're talking about and I've only done the bass version. Closest I have is the X-Vamp multi effects: th-cam.com/video/0DYmoVtx4JY/w-d-xo.html

Cheers ER, yeah the 'cutting edge' can kiss my butt :)
😅, you're right 👍😉
Hi gearfacts a lot of the Casio lk and ctk keyboards from 2008 to 2017 sound all like
i played this one a few years ago
mainly just the organ and synth sounds impressed me
the biggest surprise for me was how awesome the slap bass sound was, it sounded so out of place compared to the other mediocre bass sounds…
Agreed. Watching is video after I uploaded it, I was surprised at how good the beats sounded. They seemed so tinny in my headphones.

This will happen to the groove creater on the Yamaha e463 in a few years show it's age.
Yep you're undoubtedly right about that
Does it have touch response?
Yes
Gearfacts that keyboard come out in 2017
Wow I thought it was older than that. Cool.

Yep, once again I agree :)
That one does sound disappointing. I’ve got a question for you.Have you ever reviewed a Berhinger V- amp modeling pedal yet ?
Ah, that funny old guy, yes I reviewed him long long ago. It's got a good sound as I recall, but a cryptic interface and very flimsy build. I'll get the link, hold the phone...

@@gearfacts oh I just ordered a used one from reverb as I had one many years ago so I thought I’d add it to my effects arsenal .
Behringer V-Tone Guitar Driver DI GDI21 is pretty moldable for tone. Sweet and simple.
@@dawnr8511 oh yeah I’ve got one of those too ! Thanks
Hi gearfacts can you please make a video of the solton ms 5 I really want to hear it
I've never heard of it, but I'll review it if I find one :)
@@gearfacts look on ebay
Gearfacts the Casio lk 135 lk 136 ctk 1500 ctk 1550 ctk 2500 ctk 2550 and ctk 3500 they all sound the same
I agree!
oh wait lol! I have this keyboard! I do not have a PSU for it so I never heard it lol wow..
Shame there's no midi out or even USB to extract those beats :(
@@gearfacts I was beside myself at the music store.. many of the ones you featured here, cheap keys and no midi. Shameful lol!
