[NAMM] Casio adds the PX-780 to the Privia Series

Casio introduced at NAMM the latest addition to the Privia Series digital pianos, the PX-780 with new keyboard and sound engine.

The new PX-780 utilizes more than three times the memory of the previous generation for a more natural piano tone, combined with the AiR technology (Acoustic and Intelligent Resonator) and a new Damper Resonance simulator for the sustain pedal.

The PX-780 also features a new redesigned 88 note Tri-sensor scaled hammer action keyboard. This new action features new simulated Ebony and Ivory textured keys and three sensors used to capture the dynamics of a performance. The action and the sound engine take into consideration the speed at which different sized hammers move inside acoustic grand relative to velocity the keys are pressed.

The PX-780 has a total of 250 instrument tones built-in, with strings, organs, electric pianos, brass, drums, bass, etc., 180 drum patterns with full auto accompaniment and a 17 track recorder for composing your own songs.
