For many musicians, the computer has become a music-making center. Connect the CTK-4000 to a computer using a USB cable and exchange MIDI data between the two devices. Send play data from the keyboard to music software running on your computer, or send MIDI data from your computer to the keyboard for playback.

Step Up Lessons
To master a song, it is best to break it up into shorter parts (phrases), master the phrases, and then put everything together. The CTK-4000 features a "Step Up Lesson" feature that helps you to do just that. The built-in songs are pre-divided into phrases to help you master keyboard play. Step Up Lesson takes you through practice of the right hand part, left hand part, and both hand parts for each phrase of a song. Master all of the phrases and you master the song.

Auto Harmonize automatically adds harmony to notes you play with your right hand, which adds rich depth to the melody of your performances. You can select from among 12 types of Auto Harmonize to suit the type of music you are playing.

An easy operation instantly changes the key of the keyboard.

I got this keyboard for my daughter for Christmas, 2009. she is 11 years old and has been enjoying the keyboard. she has used the step-up lessons to learn several pieces, and she hasn't had any "professional" piano lessons but has learned to play both hands together with several songs: Greensleaves and Danny Boy are her favorites. It took a while to get use to how the step-up lessons worked, but once we understood, it was easy to use. We don't use any of the fancier features, just wanted a basic keyboard with lots of songs and sounds. I like that about this keyboard, but have alreay had problems with it. We aren't rough on the keys, but have noticed several of the more "played" keys are clicking when played even softly. This can be slightly annoying. The clicking sounds makes it feel and sound cheap and makes me nervous about making it worse. Also, some of the features are difficult to use and don't work the way they are suppose to. Sometimes it is user error, but something as simple as recording what you are playing is very difficult. My daughter has had several frustrating moments when she thought she recorded something and she went to play it back and it wasn't there. It is a lot harder than necesary to set up the recording, and you can't easily tell if the recording is working. Also, there have been several times I had to turn the keyboard off and restart it when different buttons weren't doing what they were suppose to. It usually will work when the keyboard is "reset" by turning the power off and back on again. It can be frustrating and has happened when selecting instraument sounds as well as using the step-up lesson feature.
If the clicking gets worse, which it seems to be doing by almost negligable measure, I will consider returning it for something more sturdy, although I can't really afford more.
I have ordered a foot pedal to go with this. It is needed to play pieces so they sound nice. hope that works out well!

The Casio Keyboard we purchased for our grandson is working out great. Since it came with everything required, seat, earphones, etc. he was utilizing it Christmas Day and having fun with it.

I purchased this for my 16-year-old daughter for Christmas, who has just learned to play the piano but wanted more "pizazz" during her playing. This keyboard was the perfect solution... it's affordable, not too big (so we didn't have to give up a whole room to it), has lots of features and it came with headphones, so she can play to her heart's content and we don't hear it!! My only complaint is I wish it had more keys, like a full-size keyboard on a piano, but I guess if I want that I'm going to have to pay a lot more for it. This is a good quality keyboard for a good price and she's getting lots of enjoyment from it.
P.S. It doesn't come with a sustain pedal, which I think is important... if you order this keyboard, grab a sustain pedal too... it makes a difference in the sound (it really should come with one but apparently none do).

This is a great keyboard for a novice piano player, has all of the requisite features to easily learn how to play. For the price, you can't go wrong here. For anybody looking for a keyboard to use with Garage Band, this does the trick (though the requisite USB cable is sold separately). The keyboard includes a lot of features, will take a while to become fully acquainted. Be forewarned, the accessories are not Casio products and appear to be cheap. The headphones are not even worth taking out of the box.
