Frequently Asked Questions

AiX is a significant improvement; it’s noticeably richer and more detailed than the older Casio tones, offering a more realistic piano experience.
Yes, it has a pedal connection, but it only supports a basic sustain pedal – more complex pedals with half-pedaling won't function.
It’s a basic recorder, more suited for capturing simple song ideas or practicing phrases than full-fledged composition; don't expect advanced editing capabilities.
