It has the same sounds as countless other Casio models, but it presents itself in a cheerful, nicely designed casing that will please owners for decades to come :)
You say you do not often review the older Casios as they sound much the same, but there can't be that many left that you have not reviewed. Those older reviews are a god sent for those of us who have a 'thing' about the old 'tablehooters'. On my wish list would be if you were able to revisit some of those older keys, say just one example of each major sound generation type and record it with the better quality mics and audio we have today, similarly with the older reviews of vintage (cheap) multi effects unit and pedals. Thank you for your work; enthusiasm and humour it is much appreciated.
For more than two decades all Casio's low-end Keybords were almost sound like this one, including CTK-240 which was be showed in your earlier video. I've got several keybords like this too such as CTK-501, LK-35, LK-103, LK-125, LK-48.
You are right Bro... That one is cute and sounds Cute as well... Organs are ok... The main Piano is, well... "Quacky" 😊... It has some old fashioned 80s usable Videogames Effects... The Auto accompaniment sounds hilarious... Thank You for Sharing Bro!
Luv the old Girls i have some Retro Keyboards in my collection, i remember a couple of years ago i commented on your awesome page that i had a DJX, since then i've added a couple more like a PSR37, PSS470,Casio SA75,Casio PT87,Casio SA46,Korg Minilogue..as i said Luv the Old Skool Stuff, keep up the Minted Post's Bud...👍🏻

It's a great idea for a video. Could possibly pull it together from all the Gearfacts archives...

Yes, I think it was called the AHL sound set(I think) and it lasted for two and a half decades.

Well said! For years I’ve vowed to use one of those sci-fi sounds in a song. It’s never actually happened…
The CTK-480 uses the A^2 Basic sound source

Very cool! That’s a litany of classics you have there 👍
The sounds that are in this keyboard are also there in the somewhat newer Casios like the CTK-240 & the CTK-1300.
Correct. Casio have really over-used this sound processor
