Sound

Featuring the Multi-dimensional Morphing AiR sound source for beautiful, rich sounds reminiscent of a grand piano

Rich and expressive piano sound for natural performance

In addition to the changes in volume and tone that are dependent on the force used to play the keys, the tone heard throughout sustained notes has been dramatically improved for an even more expressive sound and authentic sound.

Acoustic Simulator expresses the real sound of a grand piano

Sympathetic string resonance exposes the harmonic relationships between vibrating strings, while damper resonance simulates the string release when the damper pedal is depressed. You'll even hear mechanical key sounds when playing with an exceptionally light touch or by removing a finger from a key, just like playing a real grand piano.

Touch

The newly developed Smart Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard dramatically reduces size without compromising playing feel

Key Off Response allows fast note repetition

The note off timing is digitally controlled based on the movement of the keys during release. When hitting the same tone repeatedly, the next note can be produced before the key returns to its topmost position.

88-Key Digital Scaling realizes a grand piano-like touch

The touch of a grand piano varies with the differences in size and weight of the hammers over each of the 88 keys. The new Privia models deliver the feeling of playing a grand piano through a meticulous key-by-key digital simulation of these subtle differences in touch.

Simulated ebony and ivory keys with optimal fingertip fit for playing ease

Simulated ebony and ivory keys inhibit finger slippage due to sweat and produce the sensation of a comfortable fingertip fit that lasts even through extended sessions.

Smart Link

Technology & Design

Highly Compact Construction Technology Used to Build World’s Slimmest^* Digital Piano

Painstaking effort went into the development and construction of every single component, delivering both the world’s slimmest* depth and outstanding piano performance.

Sound

Newly Developed Slim Speaker Unit

Speaker unit delivers both slim size and quality acoustic performance

New 8 × 16cm oval-shaped speaker specially developed to achieve high-quality sound with the largest possible vibration plate in a limited amount of space.

Parts shaped to create dense magnetic lines, as well as slim size.

Use of both shell-shaped aluminum cap and copper cap ensures clear sound at high pitches.

Speaker mesh specially developed to enhance sound passthrough quality.

Touch

Newly Developed Compact Keyboard Unit

Keyboard unit achieves both compact size and natural touch feel

The keyboard unit is as compact as possible, yet retains a natural piano touch.

Newly developed hammer for comfortable playability

While small enough to fit in a compact keyboard unit, the newly developed 3-piece hammer combines a weight that performs a moderate weak reaction force and a gravity center position that generates a large moment of inertia at the time of a strong strike.

New hammer holder mechanism improves accuracy of keyboard touch

Creating units for each octave of the 88 hammers makes high-precision mounting possible, and careful attention was paid to the quality of materials used for hammer parts to achieve stable playability.

Vertical placement of LSI board allows for internal design that saves even more space.

LED operation panel with touch sensors creates a slimmer body and quality look with no protruding buttons.

Product Development Headquarters

An innovative compact design, but with zero compromises

Ikeda :For the new Privia, we wanted to start by going back to the beginning. Our main reason for doing so is that we felt it was time for a new stage of innovation. Since 2003, when the first Privia model went on sale, Casio had been breaking new ground in the compact digital piano market, and we’re proud of that. But other companies have been introducing competitive products in these past 15 years, and it is more important than ever to lay claim to a unique position in the market. So we went back to our roots in order to differentiate the Privia brand once again, and decided to pursue a compact design in a way that only Casio could.

Jinde :We were aiming for a size that had never been achieved before. It was challenging, but our team was very motivated. We really wanted to make the instrument as small as possible. This was a significant challenge for your product planning team, right?

Ikeda :Yes, there were some serious hurdles we had to get past. But they were the same kind of challenges we had when we created the very first Privia. The history of Privia is a history of overcoming challenges. We were determined not to compromise the acoustic performance or keyboard touch. It was not an easy task. We worked day and night through a lot of trial and error, and the result was worth it. We started by developing the keyboard. Ordinarily, we would have adjusted the sensitivity of the keys using the lever principle. But since the body would be less deep, we had an extremely limited amount of space available for the keyboard. So, we redesigned the hammer action structure to make it smaller, with no compromise on keyboard touch. We digitally controlled differences in sounding timing for each key block, and the volume of sound for each key. The result was a well-balanced keyboard with hammer action as rich as that of a grand piano.

Jinde :You also focused on acoustic performance and significantly improved the speakers, didn't you?

Ikeda :Yes. We developed a new, high-performance dedicated speaker. We focused on a number of elements to strengthen the internal magnetic circuit and added components to increase the rigidity of the baffle. We also increased the rigidity of the body with a design that integrates the main parts in order to prevent the unpleasant noise that can result when sound from the speakers causes the piano body to vibrate. All of these improvements have totally paid off. We were able to create a more rich and expressive sound than you would ever imagine from a product this size.

Adding new value by reflecting the voice of the user

Jinde :The concept for Privia is a piano that you can enjoy playing by yourself, and we were aiming for an instrument whose design blended well with interiors. At first, we considered a more conservative design using materials with a wood texture, but then we decided to really change things up.

Ikeda :The whole development team tirelessly discussed the evolving product, and the more we talked, the more we thought we should come up with something even more advanced.

Jinde :Our goal was to innovate by shifting the traditional image of a piano in a contemporary direction. We changed course and made it our goal to surpass the impact that the original Privia had upon its release. For the product design, we focused on removing unnecessary parts as much as we could. Our design team brought up an idea we’d considered for a previous model, which would work perfectly with our new concept. We’d heard from users that physical buttons were affecting their concentration while playing. We decided that the touch sensor controls were the best way to keep the players’ focus on the keyboard, and enhance their concentration. We created a piano design with a luxurious feel by covering the top panel with an acrylic panel which would host the touch sensor controls.

Ikeda :Getting that kind of feedback is one of the most important aspects of product design. We’d also gotten requests to be able to link up with a smart device via Bluetooth audio, and we incorporated that as well. By using something from outside the instrument to enhance the experience, we can make playing the piano even more enjoyable.

Jinde :We also enabled players to attach the sheet music stand from the rear of the instrument. We wanted to use an acrylic material with a glossy finish for the panel. But if we had designed it like we had before, with holes in the material for the stand, it would have diminished the beauty of the instrument. This is one example of how we were able to achieve an even more beautiful style, one that goes beyond any Privia of the past.

Ikeda :The new Privia is available in either black or white, and with the black model, you can’t even tell that the touch sensor controls are there when the power is off. This is the result of our commitment to making the body of the instrument express the minimalist beauty of pure form.

Only Privia could have made it this far

Jinde :With the new Privia, we’ve gone back to the beginning while simultaneously evolving. What we ended up with is a digital piano that modern people can feel great about playing. Mr. Ikeda, was the main appeal point for users the compact size?

Ikeda :The development of the keyboard is always the most important part, in fact it's the foundation of what we do. And I think only the Privia team could have packed this much quality into such a small footprint. But we also wanted users to be amazed by the acoustic performance. Our sound source is particularly rich and detailed, and we used speakers that were able to reproduce its expressiveness. We were also able to build in functions for reproducing the resonance of the piano strings, and the sounds of the action that occurs when releasing a key—features that earlier digital pianos in the class did not include. They bring the experience even closer to that of playing a grand piano.

Jinde :Now that we've achieved this kind of innovation, it only raises expectations for what's next. We dream of creating a piano that consists of nothing but the keyboard itself.

With such memorable keyboards as the Casio SA76, Casio was once known as the company that made toy keyboards. And maybe with hindsight, it deserved the tag. But slowly this brand is redeeming its image. You only need look at the Casio PX-130 to see how.

If you’re one of the skeptics and are consequently, doubting the PX130, you’ve come to the right place. In our review today, we’ll be presenting you the facts, so you make an informed judgment call for yourself.

From the quality of its keys, to the built-in tones, we’ll show you areas where Casio did it for us. And also, areas where we’re less than impressed.

As they say, time waits for no man, so let’s get this show on the road…

The Bottom Line For Those In A Hurry…

If you do not have the time to read the entire review, here’s the bottom line…

The Casio PX-130 is an entry-level piano best suited to beginners.

First of all, this piano belongs to Casio’s Privia series which means that it is portable and compact. It will fit into any space easily and even add some oomph to the space, because this piano looks good!

The sound quality is good, as close to an acoustic piano as Casio could manage for the price. You’ll also find that this transitions, from soft to powerful relatively smoothly.

The keys feel great too and come with Casio’s Tri-Sensor Scaled Hammer action. So, they do feel like an acoustic piano in some sense, Casio even gave them simulated ivory keytops. So, there’s none of that plasticky feel that most digital pianos have.

There’s a split/layer mode, plus a duet mode. And there are 16 built-in tones with different sound effects including the Acoustic Resonance DSP.

Altogether, this is a fantastic entry-level piano. So, we recommend this for beginners. Pro players will definitely need more. But if you’re starting out and looking to get a quality keyboard, this makes a fine choice.

And now to the full review…

Features Of The Casio PX-130

In the bottom-line section of this review, we did mention that the PX-130 is for beginners. So, as you go through the features, keep that in mind. We repeat, it is not for pro players.

Design – Compact, Portable, And Sleek

As a beginner, you’ll probably be going from practice to home a lot. Or you might be staying in a dorm and therefore, cannot afford the space for a really heavy, space-consuming unit. And that’s where the PX-130 shines.

It is compact and portable, making this keyboard up to the task for convenient storage and portability. However, what impresses us immensely, is how Casio still manages to deliver on major features.

Casio Keyboard Music Downloads

Check it out. The keyboard comes with 88 piano-sized keys. So, you don’t feel like you’re playing on a toy. It’s also important in building correct piano skills. And yet, it is compact enough to rest on a desk in your dorm without making your roommate call you a space hogger.

And despite all this, this keyboard still weighs a mere 25 pounds. So, carrying this will never be a problem.

And it’s not just about weight, the depth of a keyboard, is also very important in determining, whether it will be awkward to carry a piano or not. This measures at just 5 inches. So, it’s going to feel like carrying a textbook, except for the length of course.

And, of course, we’re not going to forget that this piano does look good and you’ll be proud to own it.

Control Panel And Interface – Intuitive

Casio Piano Demo Music Cd

We like how Casio makes the interface of this keyboard very intuitive and easy to navigate. And that’s because there are quite a number of features and functions on the PX-130.

So, it’s only right that navigating is easy. Interacting with a digital piano should never be difficult.

Anyhow, the control panel resides just above the keybed. And you can even use the keys as a shortcut to select the functions you want every time.

This seems to be a trend with piano makers these days. And we are loving it because it just makes things a whole lot more convenient for all involved.

In all, the layout of this piano looks clean, well thought out, intuitive, and easy on the eyes. And this is important because you don’t want to scare beginners off with too cluttered a layout.

60 Demo Songs, Duet Mode – Features For The Beginning Pianist

We did tell you that this is for the beginners, right? Now, here are a few of the ways Casio looks out for beginners on this keyboard.

First off, the Casio PX-130 comes with 60 demo songs. And why are demo songs important? Well, for two reasons actually.

Demo songs are there for entertainment. You know, after a long day of practice, you can just kick back and enjoy some demo songs.

Well, to be honest, we know you’d rather just listen to your own playlist on your phone. But hey, if you ever develop the hankering for some beautiful demo music, they will be there for you. lol.

Next, and far more importantly, demo songs are very important in improving how well you play. They give you something to practice with on your own, even when your tutor is not around.

Now, unlike Yamaha, the Casio PX-130 does not come with a learning suite. So, you’d either have to take online piano lessons or get a tutor. But, at least, you can use these demo songs to enhance your playing and have productive lessons.

It also features a duet mode. This means that you and someone else can play side by side on the same keyboard. So, that someone else can be your tutor.

Sound Quality – Good Enough, Great Transitions

Being straight up with you. There’s only so much an entry-level piano can do in terms of delivering a sound close to that of an acoustic piano. And, whenever you see a company making an effort, you’ve got to commend it.

So, fair play to Casio, for an entry-level piano, this does a pretty decent job. It might not be a Korg but you can’t deny the quality at work here.

Casio uses a Linear Morphing System as the sound engine and it works well. It sourced the samples used for this piano from its concert grand under four different key pressures.

And to smoothen it all for beautiful continuity, Casio uses what it calls morphing technology.

In the end, you get smooth transitions from soft pianissimos to powerful fortissimos. We must add here that it is quite difficult to achieve such a smooth transition on a digital piano. But it seems Casio has worked a miracle here. It’s amazing!

Built-In Tones And Sound Effects – Decent

There are only 16 tones on the PX-130 which is understandably not mind-blowing. But at this price point, who are we to complain? Here are the built-in tones in the Casio PX-130:

• 3 Electric Pianos.
• 3 Grand Pianos: Classic, Modern, and Variation.
• 1 Vibraphone.
• 1 Harpsichord.
• 2 strings.
• 4 organs: 1 Pipe, 1 Jazz, 2 Electric.
• 2 Basses.

Now to the sound effects, you’ll find the chorus, reverb and the Acoustic Resonance DSP which should help you dress up your tones and give them a bit of oomph!

Keys – Great Action, Great Feel

All digital piano makers know that, if you’re going to make a digital keyboard feel, even remotely close to an acoustic piano, then you need hammer action. Yep, you’re going to have to put some tiny hammers into your digital keyboard.

And yes, it will make your piano somewhat heavier but it seems they’ve found a way around that because many lightweight portable keyboards now come with hammer action. Just ask Yamaha.

And you also have to make the action graded. This gives you a heavier feel on the low end and the lighter feel on the higher end just like what you have on an acoustic piano.

Does the PX-130 deliver on both? Of course, it does. But here’s the icing on the cake – the ivory and ebony keytops. It’s what makes this keyboard feel great to the touch without feeling plasticky.

Now, in all honesty, they might not feel as good as those found on the Casio PX-160, as those who have played it will know. But they are by no means bad either. They actually feel really nice.

And here’s something else. Because of the ivory/ebony keytops, even if your hands get moist from a prolonged practice, they won’t start to slip off from the keyboard.

Good news, init?

Conclusion

This is a great piano for the beginner looking for something that feels close enough to the real thing. It works in any space and you can even play this on a bus or a train, if you fancy, because of its size.

Plus, it’s definitely good to know that it’s kind on the pocket as well.

Altogether, not a pro-level piano, but great job for an entry-level piano all the same.
