Based on the concept of “the first piano brought into the home,” the CDP-3000 employed original Casio digital technology to deliver on the goals of facilitating easier enjoyment of the piano and increasing users’ familiarity with rich sound. The model used a Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) sound source to reproduce the original, aesthetically pleasing tones of pianos and a Hammer Action mechanism to achieve the natural feel of their key touch. This was the model that laid the foundations for Casio digital pianos, which continue to evolve to new heights today.
