Casio Cashback T&Cs

The Casio AP-270 Celviano digital piano features the excellent AiR Sound source, which produces 22 tones on this elegant digital piano to deliver ultra-fine nuances thanks to advanced sampling technology and reproduces the complex sound of a grand piano extremely authentically. The scaled hammer-action keyboard has three sensors to reflect even the softest nuances in touch. These excellent piano features are matched by the stylish design. Guarantee an absolutely first-class piano sound with the 192 polyphony, allowing expansion of the range of voices which makes interpreting complex works a true pleasure and lets you play sweeping chords and make extensive use of the damper pedal.

The scaled hammer-action keyboard with 88 touch response, weighted keys is based on the keyboard of a concert piano and provides an authentic playing experience. A third sensor in the keyboard allows players to use particularly fast techniques without the notes sounding unnaturally cut off. The piano setting key switches to grand piano sound at the touch of a button. Two settings are available: "classic" for a soft, discreet sound and "modern" with a more lighter, brighter character. The AP-270 digitally reproduces the high-quality sound of a top concert grand piano complete with first-class reverb effects. The simulation of the resonating strings that is provided by the "Acoustic Resonance" CASIO effect rounds the sound experience off perfectly.

Features

Style - The Casio AP-270 comes in a stylish Black walnut finish.

Linear Morphing AIR sound source - Linear Morphing AIR (Acoustic & Intelligent Filtering System) sound source reproduces wider than ever, more natural fortissimos and pianissimos. A world-famous brand concert grand piano was used to collect samples of tones produced by four optimum key pressures for each note. Next, morphing technology was used to modify the notes for continuity.

The result is naturally smooth transitions from delicate pianissimos to powerful fortissimos, which brings you a level of grand piano expression that until now was difficult to reproduce in a digital piano.

Improved Acoustic Resonance System - Using the damper pedal adds acoustic resonance, which is similar to that produced by the vibration of strings in a grand piano. The result is richer, more acoustically natural expressivity.

Keyboard for realistic acoustic touch and improved play of successive notes - True and smooth grand piano level key action is reproduced using the actual weight of the hammer, without relying at all on springs. A Tri-Sensor II Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard improves playing of successive notes, for a musical experience that is the next best thing to an acoustic grand. Of course, low notes play heavier and higher notes play lighter, just like an acoustic grand.
