Casio SA-78

The Japanese company Casio has been known in the electronics market for more than 70 years, and almost 40 of them have been producing musical instruments. Casio SA-78 is a synthesizer for young talents, with a simple set of functions and sounds.

compact beauty

The model is very compact (604x57x211 mm) and light (1.4 kg). It will not be difficult for a child to move it from place to place, to play on his knees. The case of the synthesizer is made in three colour options: orange, pink and grey. Bright ergonomic design and playfulness create a positive mood for the young talent, stimulate the desire to learn.

Easy to learn

The model has 44 small keys with passive mechanics. The nature of the sound does not depend on the force of pressing, which is very convenient for children. 8-voice polyphony and 100 built-in timbres are enough to master the basics, learn how to perform simple pieces, while not spending a lot of time choosing sounds. The learning mode will help you learn the notes and develop your playing technique.

The synthesizer works from the network through an adapter and autonomously — from six AA batteries. You can take it on a trip, on a picnic. However the sound in nature will be quiet, since the power of the built-in speakers is only 2x0.8 watts.

10 built-in songs will entertain the child, and 5 drum pads, each of which reproduces the sound of a specific drum, will make you feel like a beginner drummer.

Given the children's orientation, it is not necessary to expect realistic sound from the synthesizer. However, it sounds less playful than it looks. But expanding the tone banks, connecting a microphone, another instrument, more powerful external acoustics will not allow the absence of any connectors, except for the headphone output.

Casio SA-78 is a great and inexpensive gift for children aged 3 to 10 years. Older children will need a more powerful and more functional model.
