Casio Privia PX-S5000, 6000 and 7000 are Casio's latest Privia models. I have been getting questions about the keybed action since it's a slim keyboard and people have been concerned about the short pivot point. Here's one of the most common questions, and I answer it with some in-depth demos and serious playing.
Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions by sharing them in the comment section below, and I will do my best to provide answers/demos as soon as I can.
Check out the stand here:

The keybed is a combination of Casio's grand hybrid piano hammer action and Privia's hammer action which adjusts to your playing. As you can see in this video, I utilize some advanced piano techniques and it responded to them really well.
I hope you find this video helpful and enjoyable.

Many thanks for your explanations and demonstrations of them. (I'm not a pianist, but a keyboard player to accompany my vocals) I appreciate your talents.
Thanks very much.
I believe it depends on the person's hand size and the length of their fingers too. That's why some people feel comfortable to play on certain pianos than others.
Great point you make!
I believe with my long fingers, I have a bigger chance to touch the top ends of the keys and I still feel like it does not really get in the way of playing at normal velocity.
Leon, wonderful playing there. It does help me feel more confidence about the quality of music that it’s built to be played on.
However, the question remains to be seen, is will the keys be rattling a bit after a hundred hours of playing and practicing music that often calls for a heavy touch, let’s say a lot of pianissimos, to as many fortissimos? I would hope that at this price point, that it’s keybed is built as well as say, a Yamaha P515’s ..(priced $1,599.)..keybed?
I understand that the ‘depth’ is short, from front facing to rear, which makes the pivot points shorter. I just wanted to make sure that the keys 🎹 are standard size. I have played a Nord Electro 6D, and it’s keys are actually somewhat shorter than standard, so I just wanted to make sure. Thanks much.
You make beautiful music! One thing I noticed there on the last piece is the stand held the keyboard without any discernable movement even when you were striking the keyboard with a pretty good wallop.
Yes, the stand gets a lot of praise for being v v solid, not like you get with the usual X stand. Unfortunately I didn't need one, as I have it on my desk, so got a px-s6000
I hope you could demonstrate the keybed for controlling some VSTi Pianos please.. and how good they are as a MIDI controller for piano.. you ROCKS Leon..

This what I've been waiting for
Hope you find it helpful 🙏🏼 thanks for watching!
Leon.. you are truly a MAESTRO!
Please upload the full version of that music!(3:48~ original composition) I really love that music!
Thank you so much! I do intend to work on extending it and making score for it. Many people have been asking for it. Cheers.
I own a privia 6000. The strongest quality of this piano is its action. I previously owned a Roland FA 08 and Yamaha P515, both of which otherwise nice pianos had a very stiff key bed action. Both I eventually sold because of same reason and in the process concluded that the most important feature for me in a digital piano as a hobbyist is a nice key action that doesn’t make my hands hurt when playing. I must say that in this regard the PX S 6000 plays like a dream. The internal speakers are a bit weaker compared to the Yamaha p515, but when played through studio monitors, the sounds are nearly at par. The sounds are quite tweakable on the Casio and are very satisfactory for me, especially the electric pianos, which I would say are better than any competitor in this price range that I could trial. I had also tried in the shops, some other pianos in same price range e.g, Yamah DGX ETC , But for me this key action is like a dream come true, very responsive and controlable but still silky smooth and natural which enables fast playing and doesn’t hurt your hands even after hours of playing.
These aspects are of course subjective, but I had been trying to find the most comfortable and responsive action for some time now and am glad that I found what I needed finally through trial and error in my case .
I am in the same process as you. I currently have DGX670, but the keys are not the best. Did you try any kawai dp:s or studiologic ones? Thinking of buying casio, but still wondering about the other options
To be honest, I did not try any Kawai pianos other than MP 11 a while ago, which did not have speakers so I didn’t consider it, other than also being quite expensive. From what I recall, the action and sound were absolutely fantastic, no issues there. I don’t want a piano with it speakers and the best acting and sound to “my liking was the Casio Privia” which I’m happy with down the line after 4 months of purchase. It does not have the same arranger features such as DGX 670 and only suitable for pure piano playing. The other sounds are available (no arranger dilating though) and very basic drum patterns are also there but mainly it’s only suitable for pure piano / electric piano playing and I hardly ever use its other instruments for which I have Korg Prologue and an arranger keyboard.
@@4tune889 thanks! Ye DGX670 is very packed feature wise, but the keybed of casio definitely intrigues me! Do you mind me asking which arranger you have
@@cirisirpula152 sure, so I have a Casio CTX 500, which was a gift from my colleagues when I left my previous job. I used to have Yamaha PSR 900 before that which is far better in my opinion in all respects both key action, sounds and features, but I sold that when I bought Roland FA08 (very stiff piano action). The Yamaha PSR are expensive but in my opinion very worth it. The problem with Yamaha in my experience was with the piano key action (P515) but sounds surely were better and also features were better than Casio. I’m only a hobby player so couldn’t justify the new Yamaha PSR 900SX so Casio CTX is kind of ok (but not great) as an arranger keyboard when. I’m on that mood. The Casio Privia piano is satisfactory over all because I use it only as piano and so far I’ve loved it
No questions anymore, great
Another great video Leon.
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Thank you Leon. Beautifully demonstrated and intelligently explained. We are wondering if you or your ancestors are from Georgia, Armenia or somewhere nearby. Well wherever, you are very talented.
really a fantastic piano for me, i need a light action, keys feel very very good.
Hi, thanks for the comment! Wanted to see if you ended up getting this keyboard and how you like it :)
Great video! keep it up I love your playing style.
I dind't know you're a composer, I loved your piece, I actually thought it was something from Albéniz or Granados, it ressembles that style somewhat, great playing anyhow! What's the other slab DP you'd recommend as pro if it wasn't Casio?
Thank you very much David!
I also really like the Yamaha 515, if keybed action is really important to you (and it's about the same price range). It has some really nice sounds. But I personally think this looks much better, more modern and sleek. Plus it has more sounds I think.
You have a wonderful precise technique! I really loved your informative demo. How is the dynamic range on the 5000 since it only has 2 sensors? Thank you! -- I loved your composition.. it had a cool Spanish influence witch I love!
Thank you for your kind comment! It has a great dynamic range actually. I was surprised when I played it. And the action is entirely different from the previous Privia lines since it has a new smart hybrid hammer action with counterweihgt system that's much quieter.
Having played many pianos (although not a pianist), I'd say uneven action is to be expected, even in some grand pianos of well respected brands.
Might be to a different extent, but the real problem I read the old Privias had was excessively light black keys, specially near the player side. As a non-pianist it doesn't bother me however.
PS: love your playing.
Thank you!
I absolutely agree with you.
The black keys balance with white keys have been improved tremendously in this new keybed action. I even played the La Campanella to demonstrate the trills playability between black and white keys… especially with the most challenging fingers for pianists (4th and 5th)
I've seen a guy measure this with weights so it's a credible comment, however in practice I've never even noticed this factor affect the feel or enjoyment of playing the 3000.
(I'm a serious hobbyist though and not a classical concert pianist. )
@@guitarslinger3914 Yes, I saw him too.
I don't deny that difference in weight near the end of the keys. I am just saying it is not a big deal, and it seems you think so too.
But that's the 1100/3100.
One of the reasons the new models (5000, 6000, 7000) are so expensive is because they have a new keybed that has wood inside and is supposed to be more realistic.
@@jeffhrsn Not what Casio says, but I haven't touched them so I can't verify.
@@jeffhrsn I watched another demo/review, and it was said that the wood helps to dampen key-noise.. and it does! Also, there is little key-wobble when pushing a key from side to side.. the keys do not come out of their mechanism.
Though choice for me between the PX-S6000 Roland fp30/60x and kawaii es120/520
Hi sorry just saw your comment. May I ask what you ended up purchasing? And I'm curious how you're enjoying the keyboard you bought :)
I'm interested on this new key action as a midi controller. I'm MainStage user for about 10 years on stage and steel looking for a good portable keybed (low weight) that controls vst pianos in the right way (in all dynamic ranges). I'm wondering if this Casio's are a good option for that purpose.
Thanks in advance.
can you do a walk thru video of your studio equitment ? thank you :)
I have gone through an upgrade process. I will definitely do a video on this.
The beginning was so freaking awesome! Could you share a song name pls!?
I just got on your channel, but maaaaaaaan, you hot some talent.
Marry poppins Is my new goal! Thanks for the inspiration
Thank you very much. It's my own original composition.
Anda bermain piano dengan sangat inadah. I like.
I own a PX-S3000 and enjoy the action (I like lighter actions); I used to own a Roland FP-30 (PHA4 action) which is highly regarded, but I sold it because I found it was too heavy for my liking. How do you think I would find the new keybed on these new Casios; would I find them to be too heavy? Thanks!
The keybed in this new series [5000-7000] is considerably improved over the previous generation. The best way to determine what you prefer of course, is to go and play one if you can. Others have mentioned this newly designed key-bed is great! Not heavy like a Roland.. and not too light either.
did you get every one of those demo tracks right on the first try?? really like your original song
Hi, do you mind letting me know what keyboard settings and effects do you usually use? Thanks
Hi! Thanks for your comment and apologies for my late response. I just used the default piano patch PriviaGrand as it sounded excellent to me without adjusting any DSP effects :)
Excelente funções Timbres fantásticos só a construção em plástico ☹️ que me desagrada.
Can you play Scriabin's Prelude for the left hand on it? Just the 1st movement if it's called that. I have to work to play it on Yamaha DGX-670.
How does the Key action compare to the Nord Stage 4?
Nice, Leon !!!
Is the Px-s5000 a good 88 midi controller?
The "new" action have improved the velocity response too?(over the s1000/s3000)
I´m selling my clp 745 to be more portable and play only vsts(dont bother about internal sounds).
I fin the Grandtouch a nice key action but a little bit heavy for my hand experience.
Thanks!
Hey man, thank you for your comment and apologies for my late response!
The PX-S5000 makes an absolutely wonderful midi keyboard. The action is amazing (easy to play), and not to mention quiet. The slim design sits really well on your computer desk or on the side.
I hate this pivot issue on mine too and i regret i bought it only mp 11 doesn t have it and fp 90 if im not wrong.I don t want to struggle when i play especially when i play pianissimo parts its very disturbing. Manufactures sacrifice playability in favour of portability and more economic mechanisms..and thats not good.They must offer both options
i just have it and i se ereally np with the action, i think it depends how you play, some play more with curled fingers than others.
hats why you need to try out before buy, always. for me fantastic piano.
Hi thank you for your comment. Just curious, do you have this piano now? If yes, do you feel like you've adjusted to it?
Yes I agree.
@@LeonThomasian I have Studiokogic sl grand it has Fatars best keyboard inside but it has also this pivot problem but you can say I'm used to it but in the other side you feel that something fights you back while playing it's the general feeling.Whwn I go to my teacher that has real piano I realise the difference immediately.If I could I would change it but for now I will stick with it.Kawai mp 11 costs too much and has too many features I just don t need..This is how market works the say to you: Do you want a good keyboard you will buy all the bells and whistles too..I hope they make an upgrade to VPC in the future with the same mechanism as mpn11 and pitch bend it would be perfect
This board uses a dual "smart" sensor as opposed to a tri-sensor, it also lacks escapement. Have you had any issues with midi-capture accuracy in your DAW? Or with re-triggering the same key without having to fully raise the key to the sensor reset point?
In my experience that's been a non-issue. Every once in a while, I think a few pedal info is missing. I feel that has to do with the fact that the pedal information is continuous and not just 0 and 128. In other words, every time you press the pedal, a ton of midi events for the pedal gets generated and every once in a while there are a few here and there that might need fixing. I can't think of a situation where I had missing notes for the reason you mentioned above.
sir is it most inexpensive keyboard with best premium keys in 2024 ?
and black keys are also lighter ?
Casio big improve..👍
Definitely
Any idea how to turn off the "screen saver" type thing, i.e. if I don't touch the piano for a while it starts cycling the buttons on and off. I'd rather it didn't start asking for my attention.
Found it, under system settings, "Power On Alert", set it to off
Thanks for the info man. Im sure people here will appreciate seeing this.
Ahh yes, the James Pavel Shawcross conundrum.
Watch this review... in the middle of it, he covers that 'conundrum'.. czcams.com/video/DgrQWfh_ljk/video.html
Honestly he’s the only one who called them out and after I bought the 5000, growing up in an acoustic, I’m a little annoyed how light the action is
a lot depends on your background, i love this light action, i come form usual keybords, synths.
this whole action thing is totally hyped up, weird
@@18yearsoldnot i love it.
@@wout123100 I don’t think it’s hyped up lol. I managed to get a good deal on my keyboard so I’m going to keep it as my practice piano when I watch tv… but action is very very important to me. I also have a separate montage 6 with a nice synth action that I appreciate for a different style of action
Hi I’m a beginner and I really wanna get the pxs1100, it’s super pretty and to me sounds good. Do you think it’s a good purchase? I’d appreciate your feedback
Yes absolutely, it has nice action and you’ll still be able to play many intermediate repertoire with it. Good luck!
Is fast does the key action feel compared to a Yamaha for playing repeated notes ?
czcams.com/video/N57lsLXERLY/video.html
@@suhndog He plays with 2 hands. I'd like to see it demoed with one hand, let me know if you come across it. It's really not the same thing
Is there a difference in sound quality between the 5000 and the 6000?
Yes, more quality and quantity. I think px-6000 is the best one amongst those 3 new models.
for some reason, you seemed to be able to press on the white or black keys quite easily even near the felt area... this wasn't the experience when I tried the PX-S7000 in a store... the details is that I was playing Moonlight Sonata 1st Movement, and I played it quite softly... perhaps at most at 25% of the velocity curve... on the PX-S7000, it was close to not playable. I had to adjust my finger to move down like an inch away from the felt so as to be able to press on the keys. On Casio GP-310 and Roland FP-30X, FP-90X, I don't have such a problem
Thank you for your comment, and I do agree that it can be noticeable sometimes, but I feel like I adjusted my technique quite easily when playing on a slim keyboard like this.
I would like to know if the midi throuth Bluetooth responds well when working on a DAW. Thank you!
It works way better on Mac. I've learned that it's a hit or miss on PC computers.
How much different from S3100 you've had two months ago? Any other brands?
Any info on number of sensors and does it really matter for you? Thanks in advance
Maybe this review may help.. it does compare the 5000 to the 1100 though: czcams.com/video/DgrQWfh_ljk/video.html
To me the biggest difference about the keybed action is how quiet it is compared to the 3100 and you feel the authenticity of a grand piano touch more with the smart hybrid hammer action keybed, however, I would say it depends on your budget and what you're looking to use it for.
When a black key is pressed, the angle made by key itself leaning toward the player's side is somewhat too steep to my eye. Maybe it's because of the key structure (short pivot length).
Don't you have any problems at all by the too steep black key angles when pressed?
I've been playing these keyboards for almost 2 years now. Never had an issue.
Has the "Smart Hybrid Hammer Action" keybed action been fixed in the PX-S6000 and PX-S7000 ? See czcams.com/video/hKhfgX5LWl4/video.html
It's an entirely new action approach. Hope you got a chance to go and try it for yourself. I love it and use it in most my gigs and as a midi controller at my studio.
Why do you have so many pianos? Better to share with me one of them....)))
One could never have too many keyboards and pianos. ;)
