AP-750BK Celviano Digital Piano Developed with C. Bechstein

Once again, Casio has bottled an authentic acoustic piano playing experience with its Celviano AP-750 digital upright piano. The meticulously sampled Berlin, Hamburg, and Vienna grand pianos find superb sound reproduction in the nuanced Smart Hybrid Hammer Action keybed for a digital piano experience that’s nuanced and undeniably inspiring. The sounds are incredibly realistic thanks to Casio's award-winning AiR Sound Source, which utilizes grand piano samples recorded at four dynamic levels to deliver piano sounds with long natural decays and remarkable expression. Casio developed the AP-750 Celviano to keep up with any classical music repertoire, courtesy of a 256-note polyphony, Grand Pedal system, and Grandphonic speaker system that culminates in a digital upright piano nearly indistinguishable from a true acoustic instrument.

The AP-750 Celviano features Casio’s 88-note Smart Hybrid Hammer Action keyboard. Through Casio’s meticulous engineering, the keybed provides authentic piano feel and response that conveys every nuance of your performances. Equipped with spruce and plastic composite keys, this high-tech scaled hammer action provides the weighting and resistance of a grand piano without the periodic tuning and maintenance that acoustic pianos need. What’s more, the touch response of the AP-750 Celviano’s action is adjustable to optimize it for your personal playing style. You’ll feel right at home on this piano thanks to the simulated ebony and ivory-textured keys that combat moisture and provide an enhanced grip for ultimate performance confidence.

Casio’s AiR (Acoustic and Intelligent Resonator) Grand Sound Source offers many impressive features and benefits, such as Multi-dimensional Morphing, which provides for smooth changes between soft and strong passages. Acoustic Simulator technology reproduces the characteristics of sounds generated acoustically by acoustic grand pianos. Harnessing and focusing the power of this state-of-the-art sound engine, the AP-750 Celviano delivers not just one, but three of the world’s premier grand pianos from Berlin, Hamburg, and Vienna. Each instrument is the result of meticulous research and analysis of its unique characteristics, the Berlin, Hamburg, and Vienna Grands are faithful, expressive virtual incarnations of these distinctive pianos.

The AP-750 Celviano offers pianists the breathtaking sounds of three of the world’s most renowned grand pianos: the 9-foot Hamburg concert grand, the Berlin grand, and the Vienna grand. The Hamburg was captured by Casio using a meticulous placement of microphones to capture every detail of its majestic, rich, and versatile sound. The Berlin grand, developed with the assistance of world-renowned piano maker C. Bechstein, will do no less than thrill the ears of any listener with its immensely clear and resonant tone. Lastly, the Vienna grand completes the trio and stands out from the rest with a distinctive and impressive low range. These three grands make the AP-750 Celviano the perfect instrument to faithfully play any genre of classical music and beyond. What’s more, Casio included 10 insightful variations of these pianos as “Classical Piano Repertoire” tones to perfectly suit any classical music situation whether you’re rolling through an etude, getting moody with a sonata, or dancing with a polonaise.

There’s nothing quite like a Casio, and the AP-750 Celviano brings Casio lovers and first-time users a unique digital experience that ups the ante for its acoustical brethren. Users of the AP-750 Celviano will delight in the added features like the 60-song Music Library, eight hall simulations, and Instant RePlayer continuous recorder that provide hours upon hours of enthusiastic education. The AP-750 Celviano also offers a MIDI and audio recorder with internal flash memory and USB storage, so you’re free to record up to 99 songs!

An included WU-BT10 adapter expands the possibilities of your AP-750 Celviano, letting you connect via Bluetooth to play along with your favorite songs or connect to the Casio Music Space app for expanded features. Pianists can also take advantage of aspects like layer, split and duet mode, plus chorus, brilliance, and preset DSP effects for a digital piano experience like no other!

To access any of the AP-750 Celviano’s features, simply use the illuminated touch sensor controls. As you play, the illumination of these controls disappears to give you complete and undisturbed focus — you need only touch them to activate them again. You’ll also notice the Visual Information Bar above the keys. When the metronome is engaged, this bar pulses with the beat. It can also be a great visualization of strength and pedal depth to help students with their technique. Connect to the piano via Bluetooth and customize the visualization to the incoming audio! Users who wish for a more authentic upright piano experience can easily disable this function for distraction-free playing.
