The new CGP700 is an 88 weighted keyboard with a 40 watt speaker system and large Touch Screen interface. Here's what I know so far:
New improved drum sounds (finally!)
New styles
Audio Recording
comes with stand with 2 of the speakers in the stand and 2 in the keyboard so if you want to remove it from it's furniture like stand and take it on a gig there are still speakers in the keyboard and there are stereo outs as well
I haven't seen it yet but pictures and a demo will be on the Casio website tomorrow.
The MAP price will be $799.00
Shipping to dealers in August

Casio is also showing a new PX360 which will also feature the touch screen, be extremely portable and will now include the top of the line PX860's grand piano which features natural string resonance and other features found in Casio's PX5S stage piano.

I've liked the Casio Privia line a lot but I've always been disappointed with the user interface and lack of a numeric keypad or data wheel to navigate. Now with a touchscreen things should be looking bright for Casio's Privia line.

The new PX160 piano which we've received has now added better speakers and finally a lower priced digital piano with stereo outputs!

WoW even CASIO units have a touch screen now........

common Yamaha wake up!!

The Privia PX560 is the one I was waiting for. Got the hexlayer and effects from the PX5s.

Yes its a great one...

To bad it doesnt have the arpegiator and the wheels and sliders..
However, it does have 220 styles and 30 user savable styles.

Still it should be even cheaper then the PX5s, as that remains the top model

Yamaha is very much awake....


The upcomming but unanounced Montage will have a touchscreen
So will the next generation of Tyros (which should also get a new fresh name)


Just switching from their old 2 decades old hardware platform to a totally new one takes huge time...


The Montage should be announced somewhere between today and Winter Namm. However hopes are very slight that we will see it today at summer namm, because there is allready so much new gear (PSr970s, Reface, new clavinova series)

And you know this how? or just rumors?
