The Casio WK-200 Electronic Keyboard offers great tones, sampling, and lessons in one great keyboard. Casio is showing how much they can fit in to this keyboard while offering at a price that makes it impossible to turn down.
The AHL Sound Source
All built-in tones, including piano and acoustic instrument tones, now sound better than ever before. With the Casio WK-200's 48-tone maximum polyphony provides plenty of margin to minimize the chance of notes being dropped when tones are layered and when playing with Auto Accompaniment.
Sampling Function
Sample a sound and you can play it on the Casio WK-200. You can create sound effects for a party or other events, or use sounds to compose music. Sample sound from an audio device plugged into the Audio In jack or from a microphone plugged into the microphone jack.
Touch Response
The Casio WK-200's Touch Response lets you add delicate nuances to notes by varying how much pressure you apply to keyboard keys.
Music Challenge
Test your response with an exercise that is just like playing a game. The Casio WK-200 Music Challenge tests your reaction speed by requiring you to press the keys indicated by the on-screen keyboard guide in time with the Auto Accompaniment tempo using the correct fingers indicated by the on-screen fingering guide.
Step Up Lessons
The Casio WK-200 can divide music pieces into short, easy-to-master phrases making it easy for just about anyone to learn to play. After you master a phrase you advance to the next one. With this lesson function, you keep building up your collection of mastered phrases and soon you are able to play the entire song.
