The CT-S200's keyboard is not velocity sensitive during normal operation. However, by adjusting the "MIDI Out Velocity" option in the Function menu, you can specify a static velocity value between 0 and 127 to be transmitted from the keyboard to an external sound source. The default setting is a velocity of 64.

My Setup Button

In the function menu, there's a dedicated setting for MIDI Out Octave shift that allows you to shift the MIDI output range up or down by +3 or -3 octaves. Once you've accessed this parameter, you can leave the menu Function open indefinitely and change the octave shift value as needed during a performance using the selection wheel or the context sensitive buttons below the LCD display. This does not affect the internal sound source. When you're on the home screen (tone selection menu), moving the selection wheel will send out Program Change and Bank select values on the MIDI channel specified in the Function menu. This can be used to select different tones or patches on an external sound source, which is convenient. Only the CT-S200's manual has been released publicly thus far, so I can't comment on the features of the other models yet, but I'll point out some things that I have discovered during my investigation of the MIDI functionality, which I have attached to this post.

One key feature of the Casiotone CT-S100 is its built-in speakers, which deliver high-quality sound without the need for external speakers. Additionally, the keyboard comes with numerous sound effects, rhythms, and accompaniments, making it a versatile tool for music composition and performance. Our nominated carrier is Parcel Force. Deliveries are made Monday – Friday between 9.00am – 6.00pm (excluding Bank Holidays). Also note that the Chordana app connects to the CT-S200, CT-S300 and LK-S250 via USB, whereas the CT-S100 is not supported at all:I was only borrowing my CT-S200 so I no longer have it for testing. The Reverb effects are in stereo from what I can remember. I didn’t really listen to the other tones closely enough to determine if they were stereo or not. None of the Dance mode parts or effects are transmitted through MIDI, but the section of the keyboard that is not used for controlling dance mode features will still send MIDI note data like normal. The CT-S100 also includes a USB port, which allows users to connect it to other devices such as computers or smartphones for additional sound editing and recording. Its compact size and battery-powered option make it easy to take on the go, and the keyboard's interface is user-friendly and intuitive.
