CASIO MT-70 and Zoom MultiStomp MS-100BT

Музыка

Just a small small test that I did with cute Casiotone MT-70 and Zoom Multistomp FX pedal. I noticed the CASIO MT-70 at local listings and it cost next to nothing so I grabbed it.
-- SORRY ABOUT THE BACKGROUND HUM --
There is some issues with the power adapter that came with the the instrument. Didn't catch the hum after I had record
MT-70 has just 20 preset sounds and to be honest, most of those sounds rather bland and not any where realistic. Worst might be the brass and chorus sounds. Where this lovely keyboard shines are the organ sounds and bright vibraphone and xylophone sounds. What is special with this cheap little keyboard, is that it has analog drum sounds. The drum sounds are on the thin side and it just plays pre programmed preset patterns, but it has that early 80's retro sound that reminds from early Roland CompuRhythms and Korg's MiniPops and KR-series.
Select Rock 1 pattern, hit play and you cannot help thinking of OMD's Enola Gay.
I originally bought this more as an novelty item, but as soon as I powered it on, I lost couple days with it. It's cute, cool looking, organ sounds are better than on many other cheap casios and the analog drums are nice bonus.

    The Casio MT-70 was the first keyboard I learned to play in 1981-82. Its display helped me a lot to recognize different chords. It was a wonderful keyboard of that time.

    I had one of these in the 1980s. I hated it at the time because it wasn't a "proper" synth (this was in the age of the Roland Jupiter 8 and the Yamaha DX7). But I noticed that Hot Chip used it on their album The Warning, and it can be seen in the video for Over and Over. It just goes to show that it's not what equipment you have, but how you use it.

    At the time I bought it (1983), it offered the most authentic “jazz organ” sound available on Casio-type keyboards. About three years later, I bought my first Hammond - a couple months after THAT, a Leslie. This Casio - and the MT-40 before it - literally gave me my first “push” on the keyboard/organ road.

    You are getting some great sounds out of this.I worked in a shop that sold them thirty years ago. I always loved the analogue drums and the organ sound. It came with a bar code reader and a book of demo songs in bar code format. You scanned the pages and the keyboard would play the songs and the notes would light up as they played,and you could play along. Unique little keyboard.Very nice.

    Thank you for commenting :) I noticed this keyboard at local classfieds. It looked to be in great condition, but it didn't have the code reader pen. When I got it I was pleasantly surprised how nice the organ patches sounded. I originally went for it for the cheap analog drum sounds and for its cool looks. I got it more as an novelty item, but now I've played every day for a week now.

    Thanks Jurgen! I really love this small keyboard. I've played with a lot lately. Many of the preset sounds are meh and not that usable, but rest are OK and I love the organ type of sounds this thing makes. Analog "LO-FI" beats are nice add on and most of the time I have some of the beats playing while I jam with this cute Casio :)

    I've got two of those. The first one was my first "serious" keyboard back in 1984. Still got it, but accidentally reversed polarity on the power supply some months ago and I am still fixing it (some damaged areas on the analog boards, but nothing that I can't cope with, hopefully). Then I bought a second one. I recall running the output through an Ibanez analogue multieffect pedal back in the 80's (applying some chorus) and the organ sound (the init preset) sounded awesome. Even gigged with a local band with it :)

    those 'dry' percussive sounds that resemble a 'beep' somehow (used a lot in old computer games of the 1980s for example) date back to the analog electronic organs of the 1970s and earlier in fact ... if you can find them still, check out some old Italian Farfisa home and stage organs for example ... some Farfisa models of the yesteryears had analog drums and classic style arpeggio passages that worked across the entire 5-octave keyboard instead of only the 1.x octave typical of post-1980s digital keyboards! besides, even a single note or double notes chord worked with the automated accompanying chords and rhthm styles ... LIVE! no digital keyboard i know of today can do that unless you use the MIDI and program them via a computer to do so ... in fact, most analog 'electronic organs' of the old times from YAMAHA, Farfisa, and others did similar things too, even the cheapest ones ... rhythms and sounds / voice could be mixed with each other as well to create new ones ... so, a 6-rhythm-only electronic organ could in fact yield many more patterns ... so with the voices and sounds ...

    Hi there Nathaliel. In CASIO i used 6.3mm to 3.5mm headphone jack adapter. I hooked cable with 3.5mm stereoplug to 2 x RCA connectors to that. RCA connectors have RCA > 6.3mm monoplugs that go in to the pedal. I know its a hassle, but those were at hand when I recorded this :D You could simply use a cable with one 6.3mm stereo phoneplug and two 6.3mm monoplugs at the other end.
