The strange thing about the Symphonytron (apart from the nearly unpronounceable name) was that it didn't (as far as I know) use MIDI, but rather Casio's own communication bus system. By the way, I checked out the CT-8000 keyboard unit at the time as a possible replacement or addition to my CT-202. I ended up getting a CZ-101, but I remember the 8000 having some interesting sounds, including a nice detuned Honky-Tonk Piano.

Subject: [CZsynth] CT-8000..... Symphonytron....
hi all ...
i've seen the keyboard CT-8000 sold separatly on ebay about one year ago, i had no idea that it could be built into a stand with further functions, totally cool!!! i thought it was an modern CT-202 because it have an look like that.
thanx very much for the information esynthesist!!
my Casiotone's: CT-7000, CT-701, CT-405, CT-401, CT-201-(first ever casiotone), MT-520, MT-70, MT-68, MT-65, MT-52, MT-41-(2 items), MT-20, MT-11, PT-1, PT-20-(2 items), PT-22, VL-1, VL-5 and lots of other quite vintage keys of other manufactures, but maybe it's not of interest here at CZsynth.
maybe the largest casiotone collection in Stockholm/Sweden?, anyone like to compete with me in Sweden? ;)
cheers fellas.....
