With a sleek, modern design and lots of musical firepower, the PX-S7000 is built to compete with other high-end stage pianos. Please like, subscribe and hit that notification bell! Background When we first got the price list and specs sheet for the new Casio PX-S models, we instantly had high hopes for the PX-S7000 simply because it’s going to be one of if not the most expensive portable instruments Casio has ever produced. Casio is clearly intent on entering the premium portable digital piano part of the market, which is currently dominated by Roland’s FP line, Yamaha’s P series and Kawai’s ES series. To do so means they will have to bring a really impressive piano to market to compete. Our first impressions are that they have done this successfully. It features a unique approach to the user interface, a striking design, and an overall musical experience that will compete very well in the price range. Let’s drill into the specifics. Piano Sound The first thing to note about the PX-S7000 from a sound perspective is that it draws on much of the same technology featured in Casio’s Celviano GP310 and GP510 home digital pianos. The same three core grand pianos samples featured in those aforementioned home digital pianos are found here - the Hamburg Steinway, Bosendorfer and C. Bechstein concert grands. These three core patches all sound great, but you also have a tone of control to get inside and edit the sound to your liking by adjusting parameters like string resonance, damper resonance, open string resonance, aliquot resonance etc. There’s also Sound Mode where you can edit things like reverb and engage a Surround Sound mode. Move past the acoustic piano patches, and there’s a nice assortment of electric pianos, organs, synth pads and a ton of others among the S7000’s 400 onboard tones, most of which are very high quality. Polyphony is very strong at 256 notes, and the speaker system has 4 independently driven speakers with 32 watts of total power. The outer speakers are outfitted with diffusers which deflects sounds out in a wider area. They’ve also added their new Piano Position function, which allows you to optimize the sound depending on where the piano is positioned in a given room simply by clicking one button. Piano Action The new action Casio has unveiled here is referred to as their Smart Hybrid Hammer Action Keyboard. We need to mention off the hop that we recently did an extensive breakdown of the differences between this action, and the Smart Scaled action featured in the PX-S1100 and 3100, so check out our PX-S1100 vs PX-S5000 comparison video if you’re interested in that. The Smart Hybrid action is still very compact to accommodate the slim cabinets throughout the lineup, just like the Smart Scaled action. This new action, however, is much quieter with minimal mechanical noise, and they’ve added wood siding to the keys, which helps in reducing the key volume, adds wanted stiffness to the key and improves the overall dynamic resistance. The keytops also feel very realistic - much improved over the Smart Scaled action’s keytops. Casio hasn’t confirmed one way or another if they’re using a double or triple sensor here. Overall, we really like this action and think it’s going to compete very well in the class. Features/Connectivity Casio’s new menu system and user interface takes a little getting used to, but overall it is quite intuitive. There are also Function keys that can be used for Registrations or for various other purposes depending on which preset is engaged.
