Front
PHONES jacks
Stereo standard plug
Connect commercially available headphones to the
PHONES jacks. Connecting headphones to either of
the PHONES jacks cuts off output to the speakers,
which means you can practice even late at night
without bothering others. To protect your hearing,
make sure that you do not set the volume level too high
when using headphones.
Connecting Audio Equipment
or an Amplifier
You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier
to the Digital Piano and then play through external
speakers for more powerful volume and better sound
quality.
IMPORTANT!
• The Digital Piano automatically adjusts sound output
to optimize for headphone output (when headphones
are connected) or built-in speaker output (when
headphones are not connected). This also will cause
a change in the output quality from the Digital
Piano’s LINE OUT R and L/MONO jacks.
• Whenever connecting a device to the Digital Piano,
first use the VOLUME controller to set the volume to
a low level. After connecting, you can adjust the
volume to the level you want.
• Whenever you connect any device to the Digital
Piano, be sure to read the user documentation that
comes with the device.

data is not overwritten.
Recording Digital Piano Play
(Audio Recorder)
PREPARATION
• Be sure to format the USB flash drive on the Digital
Piano before using it. See “USB Flash Drive” on page
E-48 for more information.
1.
Insert the USB flash drive into the Digital
Piano’s USB flash drive port.
When you perform a USB flash drive operation or turn
on the Digital Piano while a USB flash drive is plugged
in, the Digital Piano initially needs to perform a
“mounting” sequence to prepare for data exchange
with the USB flash drive. Digital Piano operations are
momentarily disabled while a mounting sequence is
being performed. While the mounting process is in
progress, the message “Media Mounting” will be
displayed or “*****” will flash on the display. It may
take up to 10 or 20 seconds or even longer for a USB
flash drive to be mounted. Do not attempt to perform
any operation on the Digital Piano while a mounting
sequence is in progress. A USB flash drive needs to be
mounted each time it is connected to the Digital Piano.
NOTE
• You can also start recording by pressing any one of
the three pedals in step 3.
• Do not remove the USB flash drive from the USB
flash drive port while the AUDIO RECORDER
button lamp is lit or flashing. Doing so will interrupt
recording and may corrupt data.
4.
To stop recording, press the ds (AUDIO
RECORDER) button.
• The AUDIO RECORDER button lamp will flash for
a short while after you press it, and then it will stop
flashing and remain lit to let you know that audio

Performing a record operation with the Digital Piano’s
audio recorder creates a folder named AUDIO on the
USB flash drive. WAV files are stored in the AUDIO
folder, automatically assigning them names from
TAKE01.WAV to TAKE99.WAV. You also can connect
a USB flash drive to a computer and change the names
of audio data (WAV) files to the format
“TAKEXX*.WAV”, and move them to the AUDIO
folder. Then you will be able to play them back on the
Digital Piano.

Port Handling Precautions
IMPORTANT!
• Be sure to observe the precautions provided in the
documentation that comes with the USB flash drive.
• Avoid using a USB flash drive under the following
conditions. Such conditions can corrupt data stored
on the USB flash drive.
• Areas subjected to high temperature, high
humidity, or corrosive gas
• Areas subjected to strong electrostatic charge and
digital noise
• Never remove the USB flash drive while data is
being written to or loaded from it. Doing so can
corrupt the data on the USB flash drive and damage
the USB flash drive port.
• Never insert anything besides a USB flash drive into
the USB flash drive port. Doing so creates the risk of
malfunction.
• A USB flash drive can become warm after very long
use. This is normal and does not indicate
malfunction.
• Static electricity conducted to the USB flash drive
port from your hand or from a USB flash drive can
cause malfunction of the Digital Piano. If this
happens, turn the Digital Piano off and then back on
again.

Connecting a USB Flash Drive
to and Detaching It from the
Digital Piano
IMPORTANT!
• Never plug any other device besides a USB flash
drive into the USB flash drive port.
• When you perform a USB flash drive operation or
turn on the Digital Piano while a USB flash drive is
plugged in, the Digital Piano initially needs to
perform a “mounting” sequence to prepare for data
exchange with the USB flash drive. Digital Piano
operations are momentarily disabled while a
mounting sequence is being performed. While the
mounting process is in progress, the message
“Media Mounting” will be displayed or “*****” will
flash on the display. It may take up to 10 or 20
seconds or even longer for a USB flash drive to be
mounted. Do not attempt to perform any operation
on the Digital Piano while a mounting sequence is in
progress. A USB flash drive needs to be mounted
each time it is connected to the Digital Piano.
■ To insert a USB flash drive
1.
As shown in the illustration below, insert the
USB flash drive into the Digital Piano’s USB
flash drive port.
• Carefully push the USB flash drive in as far as it will
go. Do not use undue force when inserting the USB
flash drive.

Using MIDI
What is MIDI?
The letters MIDI stand for Musical Instrument Digital
Interface, which is the name of a worldwide standard
for digital signals and connectors that makes it possible
to exchange musical data between musical instruments
and computers (machines) produced by different
manufacturers.
For details about the MIDI specifications of this Digital
Piano, see the “MIDI Implementation” document at the
website located at the URL below.
http://world.casio.com/
Transferring Data between the
Digital Piano and a Computer
You can use the procedure below to transfer edited
Auto Accompaniment data, recorder data, and other
data from the Digital Piano to a computer for storage.
You also can transfer standard MIDI files (SMF), as
well as Auto Accompaniment data you downloaded
from the CASIO website from your computer to Digital
Piano memory.
■ Data Types Supported for Data Transfer
The types of data that can be stored or imported are the
same as those that can be saved to a USB flash drive
from the Digital Piano (page E-48).*
* Recorder songs (page E-35) cannot be converted to
SMF data for storage on a computer.
IMPORTANT!
• Turning off the Digital Piano while data is being
saved or loaded can cause all data currently stored
in Digital Piano memory (recorded songs, etc.) to be
deleted. Take care so power is not turned off
accidentally during data save and load operations. If
data is deleted, it will take longer than normal for the
Digital Piano to power up the next time you turn it on
(page E-5).
NOTE
• You can alter the Digital Piano’s MIDI setup by
changing the MIDI data send channel or other
settings. For details, see “MIDI Group” (page E-46).

Even though I play on different
ranges of the keyboard, the

The ranges of certain tones are limited, which means that octaves change normally up to a certain
low note or high note. With such a tone, the notes of the lowest octave will be repeated to the left of
the lowest possible note, and the highest octave will be repeated to the right of the highest
possible note. This is due do limitations in the range of the original musical instrument for each
