Description

This is the performance Privia keyboard we’ve all been waiting for. The PX-3 is a pro-level digital stage piano and controller – with all the sounds and MIDI capabilities a serious player needs for studio work and gigging. At an impossible 23.8 pounds, the PX-3 offers full-sound editing, must-have effects like a dial-in rotary speaker for B-3’s, assignable MIDI controls, and pianos that sound and feel like a great acoustic grand and are a joy to play. All this at a significantly lower price than most comparable instruments.

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 new PX-3 features a new 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.
