A compact keyboard with 76 keys and a powerful sound

Norderstedt, CASIO Europe GmbH, July 31st 2024 

CASIO is adding the CT-S-76 model to its successful Casiotone series: In addition to its compact size, the keyboard offers even greater musical possibilities thanks to its extended keyboard with 76 keys compared to conventional keyboards with 61 keys. The instrument is also characterised by a minimalist and elegant design that offers an extremely powerful speaker system despite its compactness.

Under the motto ‘Sound for Style’, CASIO has set itself the task of creating unique musical instruments that enable music to be played, experienced and enjoyed, while at the same time recognising and promoting individual lifestyles and cultural diversity. The Casiotone brand represents keyboards based on the concept of ‘Make Music, Anytime, Anywhere’. Among the various models, the 61-key CT-S1, which was launched in 2021, is very popular because its expressive sound and compact, slim housing and design allow it to be used almost anywhere.

The CT-S1-76 builds on the success of the CT-S1 by increasing the number of keys from 61 to 76, allowing a more extensive repertoire to be played and thus expanding the musical possibilities. The keyboard is equipped with Casio's innovative AiX sound source, which analyses and faithfully reproduces the individual characteristics of different instruments. Despite its compact dimensions of just 258 mm deep and 1,140 mm wide, the CT-S1-76 delivers a powerful and resonant sound thanks to the new 2 x 6.5 watt speaker system. The minimalist design is underlined by textile elements with mixed colours and textures and integrates stylishly into any environment and performance. The controls with the most important functions are intuitively arranged and support creative use of the instrument.

With the free CASIO MUSIC SPACE app, users can also connect the keyboard to smart devices via Bluetooth® and access settings such as tone selection and the metronome and control them conveniently and directly

Bluetooth® connection requires the Wireless MIDI & Audio Adapter (WU-BT10), which is available separately.
