Re-engineered for improved tones and enhanced speaker power, the Casio CDP-S360 delivers authentic piano sound and playing feel in a sleek, compact chassis that’s not much bigger than the keys themselves. Packed with a generous collection of great sounds, onboard rhythms, and songwriting tools, the CDP-S360 brings your music to life. Equipped with Casio’s newly designed scaled and weighted hammer-action keyboard, the CDP-S360 rewards your playing with the response of an acoustic grand piano. As you play, you’ll savor the precise key weighting and simulated ivory and ebony textured key surfaces that wick moisture away from your fingers for optimized premium-grand-piano playability.

Your musical creativity ? sparked





With 700 onboard sounds to explore ? including newly refined piano tones ? the Casio CDP-S360 is sure to spark your musical creativity, but there’s so much more to this value-packed instrument. Use the pitch-bend wheel to realistically play various types of instruments. Add the finishing pro touch with studio-quality effects including reverb and chorus. Strike up the band with a library of 200 auto-accompaniment rhythms that cover a universe of genres from around the world. Use the 6-track MIDI recorder to capture your ideas and save them to a USB thumb drive. If you'd rather jam along to your favorite tracks, the CDP-S360 offers Bluetooth compatibility via the optional WU-BT10 adapter that allows you to connect to your devices and use your keyboard as a Bluetooth Speaker.





A piano for any room





The Casio CDP-S360 will look great in any room in your home, and its compact, lightweight chassis makes it easy to transport for live gigs, rehearsals, and studio sessions. But, unlike most stage pianos, the CDP-S360 has its own built-in, newly improved stereo speaker system and operates on battery power for impromptu busking in the park. And, of course, there’s a headphone jack for quiet practice. The crisp, backlit LCD display and streamlined top-panel controls always keep you in command. Plus, you can download Casio’s free Music Space app to take full control over your CDP-S360 and access Casio's highly interactive educational programs!





Ebony- and ivory-textured keys





The CDP-S360 features Casio’s 88-note scaled hammer-action keyboard. Through Casio’s meticulous engineering, this keybed delivers stunningly realistic piano feel and response that conveys every nuance of your performances. This scaled hammer action provides the weighting and resistance of a grand piano without the periodic tuning and maintenance that acoustic pianos require. What’s more, the keys feature simulated ebony and ivory surfaces, which not only feel realistic; they also wick away moisture to provide a positive grip for confident playing. We play a lot of pianos here at Sweetwater, but we’ve rarely found a piano-playing experience like this!
