Ratings and reviews

Can't download the audio I recorded from my keyboard. The app works according to the availability of your own yamaha keyboard. I have a p125 so it's not a big deal. The app is simple to use as well. The problem with this app is you can't download the audios your recorded to your phone or tablet. It makes you link your account with Dropbox to send the archives, but the archives never appear to transfer. I had better expectations from this app... good products but bad apps.

Awesome way to learn piano, integration with the Yamaha CSP clavinovas in particular gives so many options for learning to play. I love the pre-loaded method books, the Google Music integration to show me the chords to play along with my favorite songs, and I've already learned several songs by playing along with the follow lights! The app works with some other pianos and keyboards as well, but the CSP models are really the best to get the most out of it.

Looked like fun app but total nightmare with downloading songs! Horrible customer service!!! (Except Donald, who is nice but can't help with Smart Pianist app). We bought digital upright Clavinova CSP-170. We tried to download 2 songs and it was a total nightmare - the songs have disappeared and landed who knows were after download. It took us months to get it straight, bought 9 songs again now, and the same problem - songs unplayable and noone is help... Holds long and they don't return calls.
