Casio WK-110 Review - Final Analysis
Overall, the Casio WK-110 is a great digital keyboard for beginning and intermediate keyboardists. My main qualm with this keyboard is the lack of standard MIDI ports. Instead you must rely on a USB cable, which is a finicky solution at best. Most music equipment has MIDI ports, not USB, so you must relay the MIDI signal through a computer first.Another detriment is not the keyboards fault, but rather Casio's. You see, the Casio WK-110 comes with a bundled CD that contains the USB-MIDI drivers, but this CD is only compatible with Windows. You will need to download a special Yamaha drivers to get it to work.
