The very compactly built PX-S5000 is a simply and elegantly designed stage piano that makes a good impression in the living room, in the music school and on stage alike. The weighted 88-key Smart Hybrid Hammer Action Keyboard has a sophisticated hammer action, is velocity sensitive and provides a good playing feel. The surface of the hybrid keyboard, which is made of a mixture of wood and resin, also contributes to this. Thanks to 192 voiced polyphony, speedy playing is guaranteed even with two people at the instrument without swallowing a note. The 23 included sounds, including three excellent grand piano sounds, offer a good cut of classical, pop and jazz and are versatile. A selection of effects consisting of reverb (8 types) and room simulation (4 types) further enhances the 23 sounds if desired.

In addition, an existing triple pedal can be used to turn the pages of music while playing. The Music Player is much more than playback software for music stored on the smart device. Whether you want to play along with your own tunes or your favourite songs from the charts, you can vary the tempo, adjust the pitch and even remove parts of the music to play yourself. The result depends very much on the song used; music stored in the cloud or protected with DRM is not supported. The Live Concert Simulator gives the player a virtual impression of the spatial acoustics of different venues. This ranges from the small piano lounge to the large concert hall, even special locations such as the beach, river banks and rain are available. Last but not least, the Piano Remote Controller gives access to detailed setting options that relate to keyboard behaviour, the metronome function or general system settings, among other things.
