Casio AP500
Furniture-Style Digital Piano

For the best deal on the Casio AP500, see all of Kraft Music's available AP500 Bundle Offers.

The AP500 is Casio's latest digital piano in their Celviano series. The AP500 features a beautiful dark wood cabinet, a powerful speaker system, excellent sound quality, over 160 instrument variations and a memory card slot for song expansion.

The AP-500 offers the sound and feel of a grand piano. It combines quality, style and technology in a  beautifully crafted traditional cabinet. The AP500 includes 88 Full-size, Weighted and Graded Keys, Casio exclusive AIF Sound Source, which produces 128-Note Polyphony so no notes will be cut off.

A new AIF Sound Source delivers all the sound quality and playability of a fine grand piano. High-precision stereo sampling of a grand piano combines with an original new filter system to produce sounds that modulate naturally from the moment a key is pressed until the note decays. A Tri-element system uses three different waveforms of each note, which makes it possible to produce realistic sounds in response to different key pressures. In addition, an original AIF Sound Source system communicates each delicate nuance to the sound source so everything from pianissimos to fortissimos is reproduced with the same richness of expression as an acoustic grand.

Advanced AIF sound chip
AIF (Acoustic & Intelligent Filtering System) Sound Source Precision, large-volume sampling of waveform data combines with the latest in waveform processing technology to produce natural, amazingly realistic grand piano and other acoustic musical instrument sounds.

128 polyphony
Notes reverberate naturally without being cut off during high-speed passages and pieces that require intensive damper pedal operations. The Casio AP500 also provides plenty of playability for four-hand duets as well.

Tri-element for piano tones
Three separate samples of a grand piano are employed for strong, light, and medium keyboard pressure. The result is an amazing range of expression for a digital piano.

Powerful Onboard Speaker System
Casio has included a 30 watt amplifier driving each of the AP500's two speakers. These speakers have a "two-way" design using a dedicated speaker for the high and low frequencies, resulting in a fuller, clearer tone.

SMF songs are expanded by USB / SD card
You can store up to 10 songs you have downloaded with your computer as songs 61 through 70 of the Music Library and practice along with them as they play, just as you do with the built-in songs. You also can use the CASIO SMF conversion software (SMF Converter) to convert SMF data files you have purchased or created, and transfer them to the digital piano's Music Library.

Lesson Function
You can turn off the left hand part or right part during playback of a Music Library tune, and play along with the remaining part.
