anyone familiar with the casio pt50? i found a guy sellin one for 20 bucks on craigslist and ima buy it. sounds funny

i have one of those, from what i understand they are somewhat rare. I think it's pretty dope. the tones are more or less what you'd expect and it's monophonic, but the drums are where it's at. analog and lo-fi, sound dope through some fuzz and compression. also the chord function sounds cool. hopefully you won't have to spend an hour cleaning crayon off of yours (though i can't complain since i got it from the thrift store)

cool. what ins and outs does it have?

hmm, not at home right now, but i know it has a 1/4" out and i think that's it. no ins. you're in san diego?

that pt50 looks pretty cool,
i found one to hope i he still want to sell it.
it would be my first key thing!

yeah an lil north of sd around carlsbad

WORK THAT SHIT!

Seriously I have a PT-80 which is very similar looking to the PT-50. Got a rom card that plays the godfather theme lol. Old Casios are dope. I have 4 of them and about to buy another.

I just bought one for 20 euro's now i have to wait till it gets here.

but can some one tell me something about the cassette and rom tapes?
the one i bought doesn't have any?
do i have to get some to do something with it or what.
i'm new to this keyboard thing.

You don't need the ROM carts to use the keyboard or rhythm sections. The ROM carts are for learning how to play melodies, each comes with with like 4 different songs, usually cheesy.

oh okay thanks helloitabot.

i have a pt50. its cool. its monophonic i think.

i have a pt100 that i modified with a 1/4inch output and 3 levels of distortion. also a knob that seems to turn down all the high frequencies of the sounds so all you have is dirt bass.
