CASIO UNVEILS THE CT-FS1 IN TWO MONOCHROMATIC FINISHES, DESIGNED TO INSPIRE CREATIVITY

The slim, monochromatic CT-FS1 is built to stay out on display, and new Feel Sync technology lets anyone play along with the songs they love

JERSEY CITY, N.J., Nov. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Casio America, Inc. today announced the CT-FS1, a new Casiotone keyboard designed for the way people live with instruments. Most keyboards get tucked away between sessions, but the CT-FS1 is meant to stay out as a conversation piece, with a clean, monochromatic design that fits a living room or creative space as naturally as a modern speaker system.

Offered in Midnight Black and Alpine White, the CT-FS1 carries a single color from the cabinet to the keys, a departure from the traditional black-and-white. A screen-free interface keeps the top panel uncluttered, and at under 10 pounds, it moves easily from room to room, plugged in or on batteries. An instrument that stays visible gets played more often, and the CT-FS1 is intended to provoke more session time from beginners to streamers and producers.

Play Along From Day One

Building on the popular CT-S1, the CT-FS1 introduces Feel Sync, which lets users play along with their favorite songs right away, even with no keyboard experience. Through the Feel Sync app, users choose from a library of songs or import their own MP3 and WAV files. As the music plays, the CT-FS1 adapts the notes it produces to match the song's harmony in real time, so players focus on rhythm, timing and expression while the result sounds naturally integrated with the track.

"There's something special about sitting down at a keyboard for the first time and discovering you can make music that sounds good," said Brian Piccolo, Senior General Manager, Sound and Innovation Division at Casio. "Feel Sync lets people experience that feeling immediately with songs they love. Our hope is that the enjoyment becomes the motivation to learn those songs and discover how rewarding playing music can be."
