Casio CDP-S160 BK — Compact 88-Key Digital Piano The Casio CDP-S160 BK is a portable digital piano that combines the realistic sound of a concert grand piano with an exceptionally slim and lightweight design. Designed with students, hobbyists, and pianists in mind who are seeking a professional instrument for home, school, or stage use, it offers playing comfort and natural feel comparable to much more expensive models. The cabinet depth is a mere 232 mm, and the entire structure is only slightly larger than the keyboard itself. Product Features 88 keys with Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard II mechanism — a weighted hammer system that imitates the key weight of a concert grand piano. Ivory and ebony textured key surfaces provide a non-slip texture and comfort even during long playing sessions. The instrument offers 10 tones, including a rich stereo concert grand piano sound with adjustable reverb and chorus effects. Duet Mode allows two people to play within the same keyboard range — ideal for lessons and joint performances. Built-in stereo speaker system and headphone output allow for loud playing or quiet practice at any time. The instrument features a built-in metronome, one-touch recording, and a USB-MIDI class-compliant port. Powered by an AC adapter or 6 AA batteries, it ensures full mobility. The instrument is compatible with the free Casio Music Space app for iOS and Android. Natural Sound and Playing Comfort in Any Situation The Casio CDP-S160 BK is designed to fit almost anywhere. Thanks to Casio's proprietary high-density mounting technology, internal components have been miniaturized to create a space-saving structure that does not compromise on quality compared to larger models. The slim, single-color black finish gives the instrument an elegant, minimalist look that suits any interior. The concert grand piano sound in the CDP-S160 stands out with natural timbre changes in response to key strike force and sound duration. This allows the instrument to offer a wide range of expression — from soft, delicate passages to powerful, dynamic chords. The ten available tones include a concert grand piano, electric piano, and other classic keyboard instruments, while adjustable reverb and chorus effects allow you to tailor the sound to specific repertoires and acoustic spaces. The Scaled Hammer Action Keyboard II mechanism, housed in a compact body, ensures an ideal balance between slim size and responsive, natural touch. Each key is weighted proportionally to its position on the keyboard, reproducing the characteristic feel of an acoustic piano. The key surfaces feature a fine, grainy texture imitating ivory and ebony, preventing fingers from slipping due to sweat and ensuring comfort even during multi-hour practice sessions. With power supplied by an AC adapter or six AA batteries, the Casio CDP-S160 BK can be used literally anywhere — at home, at school, outdoors, or while traveling. The built-in stereo speaker system provides full sound without the need for external speakers, and the headphone output allows for practice at any time of day or night without disturbing anyone in the vicinity. The built-in metronome aids in learning rhythm and precise playing, while the one-button recorder allows you to instantly record your performance and play it back for evaluation purposes. The class-compliant USB-MIDI port enables immediate connection to a Mac, PC, tablet, or smartphone — without the need to install drivers. The Casio Music Space app, available free on iOS and Android, allows for convenient adjustment of instrument settings, learning with MIDI files, playing audio files with independent control over pitch and tempo, and much more. Duet Mode is useful not only in lessons but also during joint music-making at home — two people can play within the same keyboard range simultaneously.
