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.
CASIOTONE CASIOTONE has been synonymous with cult keyboards since 1980. The first model—the CT-201—was developed with the intention of giving everybody the opportunity to enjoy playing the keys — beginners and advanced players, sound enthusiasts and rhythm fans alike.
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).So here we go, ordered by series and then by model number: Casiotone/CT series:.

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.
Vintage 1980's Casio MT-205 Casiotone small keyboard with original box and manual. Tested with 6 AA batteries and works perfectly. Coolest feature on this keyboard is the 'super drums' which gives you the ability to choose different patterns of each percussion sound found in a beat as well as various bass lines. Also, there are inputs for 4 additional drum pads or triggers made by Casio, but not included. Only flaw is a key that appears to have been reattached, but it works as it should, and there are a few cosmetic scratches but nothing significant. No adapter included.
