It is not suitable for beginners in the piano for various reasons, but it can be useful in certain contexts. Now we tell you why&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The Casio SA 78 keyboard has 100 built-in tones. They sound a bit like a toy but the piano tone is in tune. It also has several sounds of other instruments that are worth a little fun.

To start with because as we said before it has almost no polyphony and only 44 keys.<\/p>\n<p>In addition it does not alows sustain pedal that serves to maintain the note in the time and is a basic expressive resource to learn piano.<\/p>\n<p>The touch is very plastic, although this happens on any keyboard under \u20ac200 or $200.<\/p>\n<p>It has some learning features but they are not really usable and are not used by anyone.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Get your Casio SA78 with the Best Discount on Amazon (Shop recommended by BuscarInstrumentos.com):<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><div style=\"text-align: center; margin-bottom: 40px; margin-top: 20px;\"><a style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #fff;  background-image: none!important; background-color: #1abc9c !important; padding: 12px 15px;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01HHEIZ2Q?tag=versioninglesabi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1 \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">View Current Price at Amazon.com<\/a><\/div>\n<p><strong>To learn piano you need at least 61 keys on the keyboard, a keyboard with sensitivity to regulate the strength of the note, and a pedal even if it is not included.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>What is this keyboard for?<\/h2>\n<p>As we said earlier to amuse the little children is not bad. But the most useful functionality lies in its small weight of 1.4 kg and portability. It also has a headphone output that you can take out to a normal amplifier (mini Jack). On the other hand it has a 5-key drum pad to simulate a percussion instrument. For the purpose of fun then ok&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"width: 100%;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.buscarinstrumentos.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/pad-percusion.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"pad-percusion\" src=\"\/\/www.buscarinstrumentos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/pad-percusion.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"619\" height=\"462\" data-id=\"3726\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>This makes it very useful to take to rehearsals or to other musicians&#8217; houses where you simply want to show them your ideas on the keyboard.

Although you have to keep in mind that I&#8217;d better have MIDI for these purposes. There are several keyboards that bring you to MIDI for a little more money. But if you don&#8217;t have any money and you want it for the above then go ahead. It can be a gift for a musician as an additional resource, with the utilities of before will always arise where to use it.<\/p>\n<p>It has to be said that it has to be powered by 6 small AA batteries, it does not have a power supply and although it can be obtained it is not worth it&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>It has built-in speakers but very limited of course.<\/p>\n<h2>Casio SA 78 vs SA 77<\/h2>\n<p>There&#8217;s no difference, it&#8217;s just renaming it.<\/p>\n<h2>Casio SA78 alternatives<\/h2>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want it for the functionalities we have told you, it will be much more worthwhile to spend between 100 and 150 \u20ac and buy one that will be worth you for many more things.
