Casiotone 202 | These Are My Chords

And now for something completely different… The Casiotone 202 is a preset-based keyboard from 1981. It has some primitive controls of vibrato and sustain, but that’s about it. The sounds are selected by flicking a “set” switch and pressing notes on the keyboard which correspond to a particular sound. The presets include things like violin, cello, harp, brass, piano, organ, harp, guitar, clavinet etc. But there’s some more peculiar stuff like synthe-sound, elec. sound, shakuhachi and koto. All the sounds sound….well, like a Casio!
