CASIO COMPANY HISTORY

Casio came to recognition in 1957 when they created the world’s first all-electronic compact calculator. Casio’s advances in digital technology led to many important discoveries and to new product categories including musical instruments.

Since that time, Casio has continued as a world leader in technology through research and development. Today Casio produce some of the worlds most advanced and innovative keyboards and digital pianos for all levels of players.

 

CASIO ELECTRONIC MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS – AUSTRALIA CASIO EMI AUSTRALIA – SOUND TECHNOLOGY

Here in Australia, Casio is one of the most recognisable and valued brand of domestic portable keyboards and digital pianos. With a team of professionals based around Australia, the Casio EMI (Electronic Musical Instrument) Division supplies specialist music retailers with the latest in Casio Sound Technology.

      "Designed and engineered in Hamamatsu, Japan, with exceptional precision in the piano action mechanism and fine handcrafted finishing. More than 35 years of piano crafts experience now embedded into the core of our ORION pianos."

       

      ORION Australia is widely recognised in Western Australia for their string instruments, as it was the first category of musical instruments they released. As a company founded with a classical music mindset, eventually we expected the ORION acoustic pianos to arrive.

      Starting 2017 ORION Music began prototyping, researching, and designing the next best acoustic piano in Australia - with the customers needs in mind. The company worked with countless of established musicians to gain perspective and insight into what a classical pianist would look for in a piano. 

      They released two models of upright acoustics; an entry-level model at 125cm height and a flagship model at 131cm height.

      The first introduction from ORION Music presenting their acoustic pianos stood out to us; the obvious difference in the quality to price compared with anything we have seen.
