Full Description

Please note: This keyboard does not come with a power supply. You will require the Casio AD-Power Supply.

Chordana Play app

Casio understands that technology plays a large part in education, and learning to play the piano is no exception! Now you can connect your smartphone or tablet to your keyboard via an audio cable to unlock a wealth of educational features. You can choose between the 50 included songs on the Chordana Play app, or you can even add your own MIDI files. Chordana will automatically generate a music score from the file, and even detects chords, making it easier than ever to learn the piano.

You can easily select which tracks to play with your right and left hands, or you can assign your right hand to play the melody and your left hand to play the chords. Change the tempo, transpose to a more accessible key, or even use the AB repeat function to master small parts of the song which you're struggling with. You can even take lessons using the on-screen keyboard and track your progress using a scoring system!

Dance Music Mode

Thanks to Casio's Dance Music Mode, you can now produce amazing dance tracks. Featuring 50 modern styles including EDM, house, and hip-hop patterns, you can easily begin to combine phrases and remix them to create a full band setting. Not only is this fun and engaging, but it's also a great place to explore different compositional techniques and learn the basics of layering and texture.

Once you have produced a style which you're happy with, you then have a choice of four different effects to add more depth and ambience to your music. The LK 265 takes this popular feature one step further by adding new vocal samples that can be played at any time. Dance Music mode is a fantastic way to keep students engaged with music while also teaching the basics of music.

Key Lighting Keyboard

The LK 265’s key lighting board fully equipped to start your piano learning journey with you. To make it easy for you. Each key lights up red at the touch of your fingers. That way you can monitor your performance with the support of the Casio’s incredible visual. Every time you play, you will see exactly where your hand is. Clearly labelling your chord and scale shapes. Once you get familiar with the keyboard, you can turn off this function at any time.
