1. Casiotone Mt 800

This is a 1983 casio-mt, with pretty good sound, 12 rhythms and 12 tones, sustain and chorus effects, a fill-in, sure, as well as dedicated chord and rhythm volume sliders It also has detachable external speakers (with regulated angle allowing to play a bit with acoustics) that make the thing look pretty unusual but pretty in my eyes - the speakers are of high quality and they're quite powerful in fact. Appearances have it look a bit more serious than you regular MT. 4 octaves, mid keys, a standard chord section with no appregiator. There's also a light-system with LEDS along with the legendary RAM card with learning 'games', and a limited sequencer/recording mode. All nice curiosities of an era long gone adding to fact that these keyboards look a lot out of date. Despite the limited functions, the keyboard is pretty good sounding in all sections, chord and bass, nice quality analogue drums and especially nice tones (the chorus shines too!).

Back in its day it used to be an expensive one, still today it's usually priced above other casio MTs. Its also heavier, even if you exclude the speakers. It definately has its own character!

UTILIZATION easy and hands on control, like with all these oldies. The ram card functions are a bit more tricky, but you can find the manual online, so. OVERALL OPINION Compared to the other 3 Casio MTs I got and tested out, and, this would be considered to have the most 'quality' tones, and even realistic in some occasions. So maybe this might be the the best choice for someone who would like to buy one of the best sounding Casio MTs.

Or lets say this one is less on the cheesy side. Note: I ahve not listened to the well known mt-68 mt-800 is also a highly bendable Casio and the already quality tones and be tampered further with filter like results, making them even smoother. For a serious modifier/circuit bender, this keyboard is really worth exploring, given the quality of the tones and the apparently analogue filtering of the tones. Additionaly, the drum sounds are also very nice sounding and appealing and can also be modified in some ways. This is the keyboard that by a strike of luck got me into circuit bending, along with researching and enjoying an old passion of mine: old keyboards cudos go to warranty-void AKA tablehooters, where lots of info on the subject exists.

Retro home keyboarders of the world: Rejoice! For I am making available for download my collection of manuals for crappy 1980’s and early 1990’s casio home and mini keyboards. Unlike Yamaha, Casio has only very limited support for older models — the only official way to find a few manuals is over at –, making some of these manuals hard or impossible to dig up. While most of these keyboards are so simple that manuals aren’t really needed, for some models, a manual is definitely needed for squeezing the most out of your ole, trusty tablehooter. In order to correct this grievance, here are the user manuals for most keyboards of the older Casiotone / CT / MT / PT / SK / SA and VL-Tone series, and also those for some esoteric weirdosities like the mythical KX-101 and the insane VA-10. I also included some manuals (such as for the PT-30) that Yours Truly made himself.

All of these manuals are PDFs; most of them are in English. Where I could only find a manual in another language, I included it — better a Spanish or German manual than none. As for the missing keyboards, in most cases, there are very similar keyboards whose manuals can be used — many Casios use the same or very similar hardware. I am planning to write a history with a useful “genealogy” of Casio’s 1980s keyboards in later posts, so stay tuned.

Great big thanks to J. (you know who you are!) and to for providing missing manuals (check out his homepage — he’s the world’s leading expert on Casio ROM-Packs:) I’m still looking for manuals not listed here, so if you have one, please share it! (Easiest way is to write a comment, giving your e-mail; I will contact you, and nobody else will be able to see your address).

For I am making available for download my collection of manuals for crappy 1980′s and early 1990′s casio home and mini keyboards” Hi I am writing to you from Germanyit would be wonderful if Casio will leave you this manual site to keep. A good friend of mine had one of the best Casio-Pages ever, loads and loads of manuals, pictures and information for everyone to share and to use and then he had to close the page down or else pay a big fine.greetings from the manufacturer. Maybe it’ll work this timegreetings from germany – fastbyfred. Thanks to my wife’s cousins yard sale, I was able to get a Casio KX-101 that other than some crackle in the volume, etc, this thing sounds very good. I cannot read music, and really have no musical ability, but this this is just awesome.

Everyone that has seen it has ooh’ed and aah’ed and some want to knock me out and take it.(laughing) I’m glad I found the owner’s manual on here so I can tinker around and play with my new “toy”. I get the feeling from stuff I’ve read since finding it, is that this particular one is a bit of a rarity. Is this true? If so, it’s one nice collectible I won’t be letting go of.
