Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Casio dealer

The Casio Privia PX-3 redefines the digital stage piano category with unprecedented sound quality and performance features in a lightweight design that is supremely portable. Featuring tone editing, insert effects, MIDI controller capabilities, an Ivory Touch 88 note scaled hammer action keyboard and weighing only 23.6 lbs., the Privia PX-3 is ready to take stage.

Piano Sounds

The grand piano sounds in the PX-3 deliver an unprecedented level of realism and expression. Four dynamic levels of stereo piano samples are integrated with Casio's proprietary Linear Morphing System, for a grand piano sound with seamless transitions and a superior dynamic range. For added realism, the PX-3 simulates the sound of open strings when the dampers are raised by the pedal using Acoustic Resonance DSP.

Performance Control

The PX-3 was designed to be the heart of your live performance rig. Its controller features allow you to control two upper and two lower zones. Each zone can be one of the PX-3's sounds, control an external MIDI device or both simultaneously. The PX-3's internal tones can be customized to meet your needs with 64 insert effects, adjustable filters, envelopes and more. All of your changes can be stored and instantly recalled from the PX-3's 64 registration locations.

Ivory Touch

The PX-3 features a Ivory Touch, Tri-Sensor 88-note scaled hammer action keyboard. Casio's superior engineering has resulted in an authentic piano touch that captures every detail and nuance of your performance. This scaled hammer action provides the weight, feel and resistance of a piano without sacrificing the portability of the instrument.

Advanced Technology

To complete the piano experience, the PX-3 features 128 notes of polyphony, enough horsepower to the most demanding musical passages and the ability to layer sounds and use the damper pedal without worry of dropped notes. In addition the PX-3 can connect effortlessly to your computer via USB without the need to install drivers.

"The best digital piano you can buy for the money."

Sound: To me, the most important sound in a stage piano is the piano. This piano - even though it costs much less than a lot of other stage pianos - sounds more like a piano than anything except the VI's I have in my computer. I play mostly rock and pop and I use piano, strings, bass, ep, organs (B3) and brass and the PX3 is OK for all of them and really good for the eps and the organs. There's a lot of effects that you can put on the eps that make them sound like Steely Dan or Ray Charles. It would be better if you could turn a knob to bring in the leslie like on some other keyboards. But the button works well. Feature: I bought the PX3 because it was much cheaper and lighter than the other keyboards I looked at, and had many of the same features, but not all. The other keyboards have a mod wheel and this has a mod button, which, to me, is not as good. Also, many of the other keyboards have knobs or sliders and a big screen for editing. Not so in the PX3. You can do it all - but it takes some time to learn it. However, you can buy three PX3s for what one of the other keyboards costs and this is way lighter. I can carry the PX3 and my amp and a gig bag and stand. With the other keyboards, I could only carry the keyboard and the stand. This has USB, 128-note polyphony and all the other bells and whisles. Just much cheaper and lighter. Ease of Use: I'm so happy with it because it is so much fun to play and sounds so good through my PA/amp. When I run it just through the amp, the mono out sounds as good as the stereo, which was not the case with my old keyboard. You can save setups, called registrations, which you cannot name. This is not good, because you have no way of knowing what the sound is when you bring it up. I put tape under the registration buttons and labeled my saves. I hope that Casio will change this and (please) send out an update. Other than that, it is a pleasure to play and lift. Quality: I've only had it for two months, but everything works perfectly. It's plastic, not metal like some other keyboards, but it feels solid. The keys don't wiggle. And when you're playing it, it feels way more solid than the other keyboards. The action is awesome. Value: The value is why I bought this keyboard. For what you get, there is nothing that I found that weighs as much or sounds as good. And as I mentioned, it feels like a piano. The Wow Factor: It's nice looking but it's not sexy like the Nord. It's small. It's not impressive until you start playing it. Then it's way sexy. Overall: I'm going to play this product until it wears out and dies. It's a real musical instrument.

Style of Music: indie, pop,latin, jazz, rock

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great Keyboard"

Sound: I use the keyboard to play rock, country and jazz with bands. It has three strong piano sounds, as well as nice electric pianos, and usable organs. It has 128 note polyphony. The strings sound fine, and I have used the bass sounds to cover gigs without a bass player. It really fills the room. In fact, my bass player could not make a gig, so I played keyboard bass, and the band decided we did not need a bass player. The GM sounds and other sounds are typical and get the job done when needed. Feature: This keyboard is well designed as a midi controller. It has four zones, which are easily programmable each for midi or internal use or both. It does not have sliders, but you can pan the zones to left and right out and adjust the volume with foot pedals. Ease of Use: The keyboard is fairly easy to use, and while some might like to do some programming of their sounds. I have not found it necessary. The piano's, electric pianos, organs, strings and bass just cut right through the mix as is. Quality: In the past year and a half I have taken the keyboard to about 50 gigs with never a problem. I have just used the casio gig bag to protect it. Which makes it as light as a guitar. The keyboard action is great. It is quick and light, and any performance problems are due to me, not the keyboard. It weighs under 25 pounds with the case with great weighted keys. Value: For the price, weight, sound, polyphony and usability of this keyboard it is an amazing instrument. I stopped using my Roland GX and SX keyboards. I sold one, and the other is in the basement. They are much heavier and don't sound as good. I also sold my Yamaha MOX6 although that is not a digital piano. Manufacturer Support: I once tried to call Casio, and it was not a good experience. Fortunately, the keyboard has held up well so I have had no problems. The Wow Factor: The piano is black and plastic, who cares. It is so light, with great weighted action, at a great price. I have used it as my main gigging keyboard and it has held up great. Overall: Great keyboard
