Casio AP-250

Features Sound Technology Unprecedented Natural Reproduction of the Rich Expressive Power and Resonance of an Acoustic Piano Multi-dimensional Morphing AiR Sound Source The characteristics of CASIO’ s newly developed Multi-dimensional Morphing AiR* Sound Source reflect thorough attention to detail in expressing the rich, resonating tones inherent to the piano. The capacity of the installed memory has been expanded to achieve a longer sampling duration and enhanced waveform data quality. The temporal changes in tone that create sound you would expect only from a piano, beginning with the initial sound and leading into a beautiful extension until the sound eventually vanishes, are reproduced naturally. * AiR = Acoustic and Intelligent Resonator Keyboard System Natural Playing Feel Approaching That of a Grand Piano Firm Touch That Converts the Player’ s Thoughts into Sound Tri-sensor Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard II, with a grand piano' s unique sounding timing The difference between the sound structures of a grand piano and a digital piano appears as a difference in timing, from the moment the instrument is played until the sound is audible. The new Tri-sensor Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard II responds by incorporating a system with three sensors that detect touches of the keys sequentially. learn more Simulated ebony and ivory keys with optimal fingertip fit for playing ease The Simulated ebony and ivory keys offers the luxurious feel and texture as well as the smooth touch of a grand piano keyboard. The minutely detailed crimp surface finish inhibits finger slippage due to sweat and gives the sensation of a perfect fingertip fit, even when playing for extended periods. An unprecedented evolution of the digital piano Damper Resonance* 1 achieving a more naturally beautiful resonance than a pedal The deep, beautiful resonance resulting from the use of a damper pedal is also reproduced naturally by a stereo resonance simulator installed on all 88 keys, an approach that differs from conventional simulated reproduction employing effect processing. The attention to detail goes so far as to simulate the resonance created by the lifting of the dampers themselves when the pedal is pressed.
