- Casiotone SA-81 – Compact Keyboard with 100 Tones & 50 Rhythms | Fun for Beginners | Great for Music Practice and Learning

Great for Beginners! Quality product, great sound, easy functionality, compact and lightweight. Has all the best features if you're looking to start your little one on their musical journey. Trust this review! I'm the guy who made the mistake of going the cheap route at first and bought the "China-special", when I should have ponied-up the extra dough for this quality little Casio.

Is exactly as described. Will be a great for my beginner grandson. The features are fun and the sound is very good.

It has Sounds on it to fit the most popular Songs. Drummer/ Preset Songs/ Great tool for recording on a digital recorder/ Audio Output/ . No AC Adapter Included/ Need a Positive tip Adapter/ (Probably something that fits a Casio)/ Make sure!. Very light in weight/ Great for grab & go Gigs/.

It would have been just right for my kid’s Christmas present, but she found a $10 keyboard at Five Below, so I returned this costly thing. I may have dodged a tragedy.

It’s pretty good, it has buttons like layer, function, and etc. The buttons can also change the tone which is cool. My SA-81 is pretty clean, and it looks good. Plus its decently small for a 44-key keyboard so yeah, I guess its pretty portable. It is pretty easy for beginners because the volume does not matter how hard or soft you press the keys. So if you have to go fast you don't have to worry about pressing a key barely making any sound when you press it softly.

I have a Yamaha L85 88 key professional keyboard but it is not portable to take on camping trips etc. to pratice and have fun on when away form home. I tried a 32 key Alexisis. Although the Alexisis was very nice, 32 keys is playing at my absolute limits. I could perhaps do it. I saw the Casino 44 key and knew that I could practice most known songs at my skill level with no problem. The only problem was the Casino Keyboard had a lighter touch which I will need getting used two. The Alexisis speakers take up a lot of key room. They both are almost exactly the same size. The Casino Keybord keys are not blocked my speakers so more keys are possible. For a small child the Alexisis might be better because it feels smaller. 32 keys will play lesson book songs. The going opinion on the feedback in Amazon custormers is to go only with 61 and 88 keyboards. My Yamaha does have a professional keyboard and sound. I am not a musician and don't travel to play proffesionally. So playing music with a portable keyboard that sounds like a piano is all I need. I noticed praticing on my 44 key does improve my overall playing. A talented motivated child that is absoultely in love with a piano and agrees to practice daily; needs a really good 88 key. They must however agree to at least practicing at least 30 minutes every day. A nice sounding piano like my Yamaha will make anyone want to pratice. Taveling with a Casio 44 key is portable for most of playing outside the home. Paying over 70 dollars seems necessary not to receive a junk piano that is not pleasant even to listen to.

Perfect size for my 15 month old (13 months old in the video) with a hundred different tones (instrument noises) for him to mess with (not to mention the rhythms and songs). Batteries drain fast if it’s used daily for hours so if you’re experiencing any unexpected shut offs, replace your batteries or get the AC adapter for $10-15 dollars. There are function keys to make the keys go up or down an octave as well as other advanced feature that go over my head as someone not trained in music (transposition and keys and frequency tuning?).

Sounds great! Purchased it for my 85 year old Mom and she loves it!

For the price point this is pretty packed with features to juice this as far as it can go. Stereo speakers, turn the volume down below 20% and it becomes a mono speaker if you prefer that for extra quiet. I prefer it on the volume just above that. Turn reverb on, turn sustain on, and this is the important key feature, use the "Layer" feature and mix in a sustained synth or a chimey bell, play chords and this will sound way better than price point would ever expect. The sound is well tuned for the plastic bodies resonance, though on headphones it can be a little sharp as a result. Can not really do bass, it can go octave down but really it can not even if you listen to it with headphones. Octave up sounds great.

Lo unico que no me gusto es que me aparecia cancelado y a los 8 dias llego a la casa. Y ya habia comprado otros regalos.

Minha filha adorou, aproveitou muito o seu novo hob.

Um bom produto , mais não vem co. A fonte é nem pilha a fonte deveria fazer parte

Great keyboard for the price
