Ralph Maten playing the new CASIO Performance-Synthesizer XW-P1
Introduced at NAMM now shown in Frankfurt:
Two synthesizers, two scenes
The new XW series will be launched at the end of March with the Performance-Synthesizer XW-P1 and in April with the Groove-Synthesizer XW-G1. In concept, the two synthesizers are meant for different scenes and are thus packed full with special features for the corresponding target group. The Groove-Synthesizer XW-G1 is aimed at young and creative musicians who produce their own tracks and want to present their sound in the clubs. In one compact single device, the XW-G1 offers everything that the creators of modern electro sounds and digital DJs need, such as, amongst other things, a sample-looper for creating “on the fly” layers and overdubs. The Performance-Synthesizer XW-P1wants to be on stage – as band leader, rhythm producer, sound giant. Six oscillators are responsible for the solo synthesizer’s professional sounds alone – each of them with excellent and almost limitless modulation possibilities. The legendary CASIO sound from the 80’s – for example from the CZ Series – is of course included.
- Performance-Synthesizer XW-P1: 549,- € UVP
- Groove-Synthesizer XW-G1: 599,- € UVP
Good sound, very competitively priced, no doubt – CASIO is back!
