Special Features
CELVIANO
The Celviano line of pianos has been refined for those who demand an authentic grand piano experience. The new AP-250's traditional design houses new stereo grand piano sounds and redesigned keyboard action. Utilizing a new tri-sensor spring-less 88 note scaled hammer action, every nuance and detail of your performance is captured. A new 4 layer stereo grand piano sound is delivers a natural, expressive and dynamic piano experience.
PIANO SOUND
The grand piano sounds in the AP-250 deliver an unprecedented level of realism and expression. Four dynamic levels of stereo piano samples are integrated with Casio's proprietary Linear Morphing System, for a grand piano sound with seamless transitions and a superior dynamic range. For added realism, the AP-250 simulates the sound of open strings when the dampers are raised by the pedal using Acoustic Resonance DSP.
EDUCATION FEATURES
The AP-250 features a total of 18 built-in tones, with the ability to layer two sounds or split the keyboard to allow a bass sound in the left hand. It has a built-in library of 60 songs that can be practiced at any tempo utilizing the dual headphone outputs or the internal speaker system. Celviano's Duet Mode allows student and teacher to practice at the keyboard simultaneously.
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
To complete the piano experience, the AP-250 features128 notes of polyphony, enough horsepower to the most demanding musical passages and the ability to layer sounds and use the damper pedal without worry of dropped notes. In addition the AP-250 can connect effortlessly to your computer via USB without the need to install drivers.
POWERED BY AIR
Casio’s new AiR technology, redefines the Celviano digital piano experience with richer and more genuine sounds. The AiR sound source enables the new Celviano models to deliver first-class realism and detail by providing damper resonance, which enhances the sounds of the dampers lifting off the strings when pushing on the sustain petal. Casio’s AiR technology also compensates for the speed at which hammers strike strings at different velocities and key ranges, imperative for those who crave the authentic sounds and feel of a traditional grand piano.
USB MIDI
Casio continues the tradition of providing “class compliant” USB connectivity on Celviano digital pianos. This allows Celviano to be used with Mac or Windows computers without the need to download drivers. Class Compliant USB MIDI also allows Celviano digital pianos to be used as a controller for the Apple iPad by using Apple’s Camera Connection Kit.

Keysound reviews
Yamaha Genos 2 Keyboard
From start to finish, my experience with Keysound was nothing short of exceptional. Delivery was easy, with my keyboard arriving as promised on time and in perfect condition. A good explanation of the Genos 2 was given to me on delivery and everything was setup ready to go. The USB they provided was helpful in exploring the capabilities of my new keyboard.
Any enquiries I had were met with prompt and friendly responses, and they went above and beyond to ensure that I had all the information I needed.
Overall, based on my experience, I would recommend Keysound for their combination of knowledge, reliability, and excellent customer service.
Korg EK50L Keyboard
Cannot find fault on service and prices. Will never use any other dealer.
Yamaha CSP295-PE Piano
Keysound are the most knowledgeable And helpful people ever I cannot rate them high enough. Our Piano was delivered on time and the guys told me at the time that the packaging was damaged when they unpacked the piano they found it to be damaged and told me before I even seen it. I had the choice to send it back then or keep it until the replacement was found. I kept it within two weeks. I’ve got a Piano. First rate service all around. I would highly recommend them
Yamaha PSRSX600 Keyboard
Absolutely fantastic service from Steve at Keysound. Expert advice, really friendly and helpful. Will be going back to store for some add ons very soon!
Korg PA5X Bonus USB Accessories
The service was extreme good in the item was downloaded to me almost immediate after my payment had been cleared into a USB stick.
No problem in transferring the information form the USN to the Pa5c
Yamaha CSP275-WH Piano
Couldn't fault it the delivery team took the old piano away and set up the new one in half an hour.
Yamaha PS500P-B Piano
Excellent service. Knowledgeable staff who are very helpful. No high pressure sales tactics. Straight forward and honest.
Installation team also excellent.
Yamaha YDP165-R Piano
Great service from knowledgeable people well worth a visit to see your purchasing, Staff first clay
Roland Fantom 06 Keyboard
I have purchased several keyboards from Keysound , and you always get a good service. You get a more personal experience, and they are always willing to take time to find you the best keyboard which suits your needs. After sales is also good, as they will help you with your new keyboard should you get stuck on anything.
Yamaha Pre-Owned Genos XL Keyboard
Nothing too much trouble and great after sales support and assistance.
Korg PA5X61 Keyboard
Great personalised friendly service, extremely knowledgeable of the products. I would recommend Keysound, especially to those who require additional support or aftercare with the products they purchase.
Casio CTX5000 Keyboard
Keysound were excellent. Other music shops take a generic approach about what people want and they have limited experience across multiple types of instruments. Keysound were interested in me and exacty what I wanted. They interpreted that and gave me invaluable advice. It was friendly, focused and specific. I would definitely recommend them and buy from then again. I also really like their view that buying a keyboard from them is just the start of the journey. They are there for in-person and online/on phone advice and help. I am extremely pleased with my purchase - which is not what I thought I'd be buying when I entered their shop.
Kawai CN301-B Piano
Very knowledgeable and helpful to make sure we got the correct piano for us
Yamaha Genos 2XL Keyboard
Steve and his staff were excellent. They spent a lot of time explaining and demonstrating various digital pianos and keyboards. After a few days deliberating I chose a different option to what I had set out to buy. The knowledge and service was second to none and inspired me to become a better player. I am very pleased with my purchase and looking forward to many hours of keyboard playing. Thank you
Roland HP702-CH Piano
I am so pleased I chose to visit Keysound Hinckley and purchase my new piano from them!!
I went in store to browse as I haven't bought a new piano in about 15 years, and the person who helped me (Sorry, I didn't get his name!) was so so helpful and knowledgable. I purchased my piano and within a week got the call to arrange delivery the following weekend!
The piano is amazing, but unfortunately has an issue with one of the keys. And rather than sending someone over to fix it, the manager called me yesterday to say they'll arrange for the piano to be replaced with a new one!! He said he would be happy if a brand new piano already had an issue, so he'd rather I have a brand new one. Honestly, couldn't ask for better service and nicer people :) Thank you so so much.
Roland HP704-DR Piano
Good customer service from staff who knew their product. Plenty of time given for testing each instrument and making up mind.
Yamaha Pre-Owned P515-B Piano
Keysounds service was absolutely Fantastic, I can not rate them highly enough. The Piano I really wanted was unfortunately discontinued, they called me to explain in person and then managed not only find a preowned one that was in brand new condition but they found all the correct packaging so when I received it I thought it was actually brand new! That showed a level of care and customer service I haven’t seen for years! They also immediately refunded a portion of the cost which was a bonus as I could then buy the stool l wanted ( not from Keysounds )
If all companies delivered care & Service like Keysounds it would be a far better Country for everyone! Well done
Yamaha Genos2 Keyboard
Excellent service would highly recommend. I have purchased several keyboards from keysounds. All staff are very knowledgeable and very helpful. Will talk you through any problems in finding things in a new keyboard and lots of patience.. would not shop anywhere else.
Roland HP704-DR Piano
There was no pressure, neither did we feel pushed to buy the most expensive choice.
The sa;salesman was also knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
We felt listened to and in safe hands.
Yamaha CLP775-B Piano
Very helpful visit to the store allowed the chance to play digital pianos from all leading manufacturers, as well as discussions with staff. When we settled on a product delivery was quick and full installation carried out by Keysound's team. Very happy to support a local retailer that provides such excellent service.
