It would be good if the CT series enabled you to select/edit the compass or the individual range of layered tones...so in effect you could split the tones individually across the keyboard in like zones thereby moving to a different part of the keyboard (zone) for a different tone whilst playing without necessitating registration changes. I believe you can do this on the more expensive keyboards. Often called hidden splits of tones
I agree 100%. Layers and splits are often frustrating and difficult to organise directly on most keyboards. Whilst I try to avoid using a PC, some software can achieve the required result. I've been looking at Camelot software from Audio Modeling and it can create complex layers, key ranges and velocity splits. MIDI HUB by Blokas is a standalone box that could also do similar things, but requires some setting up in software first. In the end, I guess we just have to live with it, and try to find our own workaround.
Unfortunately not, so it's a bit frustrating if you don't have the CT-S. But layers I think are a good alternative, in some ways more flexible because you can choose the sounds, and on the CT-X we get 2 lower layers, whereas the CT-S only has one. I also think an expression pedal (on both keyboards) really helps to shape the layers as you play - I believe similar Yamaha PSR keyboards only have sustain pedal control. Thanks for your question. All the best.
These are a bit weird and are meant for use with a DAW sequencer. I think the fact these are called VST is misleading - it's an abbreviation of Versatile - and these are definitely not the kind of VST instruments that you would use in a DAW as a software emulation of hardware gear. Velocity is used to switch between dynamic levels and some playing techniques, whilst in the upper octave ranges there are some "noise artefacts" that you might want to add to make a track sound more authentic. But trying to play these tones directly from the keyboard is tricky unless you adjust the velocity setting.
@@StewartWallaceSJWMusic thanks for the explanation and tip about the velocity setting. I guess it wouldn't be a Casio without at least one baffling feature.

Wow!!! I love it 😃
Спасибо,очень интересно!!!!
Hi, do we have similar sounds in CT-X3000?

How do VST tones work?
