• The glossy black and walnut wood grain finish looks great in almost any interior design style.
• Color of the spaker fabric net color that matches the body color.
• Transparent acrylic music stand included.
• Flat top panel with LED touch ring, touch buttons and backlit LCD display.

Sound Source

• Multi-Dimensional Morphing AiR Sound Source produces a wide range of exceptionally detailed and playable tones, including grand piano tones that include the rich resonances of the acoustic instrument.
• The overtones generated by the piano strings for each of the 88 keys—and the resulting complex body resonances—are faithfully produced to create a beautifully rich and vivid piano tone.
• The piano tone subtly changes over time and with every nuance of the player’s style, from the softest of touches to powerful, spirited playing.

Sound System

• Casio’s new Spatial Sound System technology uses four independently driven full-range speakers to produce a sound
• capable of filling your performance space. The speaker support structure is constructed from a rigid wood/resin composite material.
• The outer speakers are equipped with Side Enhancing Diffusers that help produce a wider sound despite the compact size of the piano.
• Surround function creates a natural, expansive aural experience by adjusting the individual output of the four speakers, each tuned for a particular element of sound in space (selectable from three types).
• The Hall Simulator/Reverb function recreates the acoustic properties of concert halls and other performance spaces producing a realistic sense of presence.
• Piano Position function adjusts the sound elements from each speaker according to the location of the digital piano (mounted on the stand, near a wall, in the center of the room, on a table).

Tones

• 350 built-in tones including acoustic pianos, electric pianos, organs, strings, and more.
• Includes a group of carefully crafted electric piano tones as heard on specific well-known hit songs.
• 100 built-in DSP effects to lend additional character and effects to the tones.

Keyboard

• Smart Hybrid Hammer Action Keyboard allows for highly expressive playing from soft to forceful touch through a combination of advanced physical keyboard mechanism and digital control technology.
• Like an acoustic grand piano, the key mechanism uses the weight of the hammers so that the keys feel light when played softly but still responsive when played forcefully.
• White keys are made from a high-quality spruce wood/resin composite material for a natural feel and premium finish.
  White keys are finished to recreate the natural grain of ivory, while the black keys feature a new matte finish that closely resembles ebony wood in both look and feel.
• 88-Key Digital Scaling technology means that volume is individually controlled for each key in response to how hard it is played, with the touch weight varying along the length of the keyboard, like a grand piano.
• Ten-step Hammer Response setting allows you to adjust the timing of the sound relative to how the key is struck and which register is being played, like an acoustic piano.
• Three levels of Key Off Response control how quickly the sound decays when a key is released. A slightly more legato or staccato feel can be selected to suit the song.
• Key Off Simulator controls how quickly the sound fades after a key is released depending on how quickly the key is released. This attention to the finest nuances of how a grand piano responds to the player’s expression is typical of the PX-S6000.

Pedals

• The PX-S6000 also comes with a damper pedal (SP-3), which is essential for creating the best piano performance possible.
• The three-pedal unit (SP-34) which is sold separately features a damper pedal that can be continuously controlled, allowing for a wide array of different expressions depending on how you step on the pedal

*The included SP-3 pedal should be connected to the EXPRESSION/ASSIGNABLE jack, while the separately sold SP-34 three-pedal unit to the PEDAL UNIT jack.

Real Time Control

• Two assignable knobs for intuitive real time control of parameters such as filter cutoff frequency, resonance, attack and release times as well as DSP effect parameters.
• Assignable CONTROL button for real time tone variation while playing.
• Pitch Bend Wheel to smoothly raise or lower the pitch of currently sounding notes.
• A commercially available expression pedal can be connected and assigned tone parameters for real time control.

EXPERIENCE

• Arpeggiator for playing arpeggiated chords and other musical phrases from keys held down. When using Layer or Split, the arpeggiator can be switched on/off independently for each part.
• Layer function for layering of two different tones across the entire keyboard.
• Split function for splitting the keyboard between upper and lower zones with different tones assigned to each.
• Duet function for splitting the keyboard into two zones of the same register.
• Registration allows you to save and recall a snapshot of the piano’s current settings, including tone, layer, split and effect settings.
• In addition to hardware controller knobs, the Piano Remote Controller in the CASIO MUSIC SPACE app can be used to set tone and effect parameters.
• Metronome function with a variety of patterns from basic click and bell sounds to 20 different styles of drum patterns.
• Tempo can be set numerically as BPM or by tempo markings such as Moderato.
