Brad Kaenel Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Found this "translation" of a press release about the new Privias. It's quite obviously been feed through a computer translator, and the grammar and word-selection is just plain funny: "The imaginative Casio PX-830 offers the playability and grumble distinction of a all-inclusive piano in a slim, classy fuselage with a front-to-back abyss of at best 275 mm. The PX-830 boasts slim dimensions with a abyss from pleasant b uncovered to casual on a countenance of at best 275 mm, thanks to a humble construction with a minutest toddler up of parts. With a smashing one-piece rotating keyboard dwelling-place and other insightful concern features, the PX-830 embodies the unexceptional loveliness of a piano in an generous, linear bottom line apropos the finest ideal in the Privia column. The keys announce what is on ones mind a matte cadaverous ivory culmination that offers a untroubled to all appearances on fingertips. When a explanation is not fully released and thereupon pressed again, the imaginative piano intention continue to deportment the exact same note, recreating the persuasiveness of a all-inclusive piano. The PX-830 keyboard uses three-sensors to establish explanation strokes. "There are no springs in the keyboard-the keys action branch directed their own hammer avoirdupois. Lower notes deportment pretty heavier than higher notes, with a hard-headed explanation ignite.The Casio PX-830 features newly developed grumble begetter and keyboard technologies that aid it to logically connote the engrossed spectrum of on velvet all-inclusive piano tones from pianissimo to fortissimo.The PX-830 is at once obtainable in a modish bleak wood culmination or an generous bleak civilized culmination."

Bill H. Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 After I stopped laughing I managed to pick up on a few things that may be of interest. It seems to feature, I believe, ivory feel keys. I'm wondering if they will also be included on the PX-330. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Kaenel Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Better info I've read claims that only the top-of-the-line PX-830 has the ivory sim keys; PX-730, -330, -130 have standard plastic. That said, I'm not sure I want to know what a "matte cadaverous ivory culmination" feels like!

Dave Pierce Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Sorry to be a party-pooper, but - that translation is funny and everything, I'm just not sure if I buy that it's authentic. While it's certainly possible that it's a fake, I've been in high tech a long time, and I've seen LOTS of chingrish tech manuals. This one is pretty funny, but it's not flagrantly worse than actual, printed technical manuals that I have personal held in my own two hands. Beyond that, I have no knowledge about this particular example. --Dave Make my funk the P-funk. I wants to get funked up.

DanL Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 That reads like any computer motherboard manual.
