Smart Pianist

This app is truly dumb, cannot connect Yamaha clp series via wifi at all.

Great app that has all the beginner features you’d want as a piano player. However I’m really stumped on how to loop recordings. I can’t work it out. Im trying to loop a recording and then play on top of it :/

We’re using it with a P125. Was really looking forward to using smart pianist with our P125 but disappointment set in with the usb cable restrictions. Why restrict to USB V2 for an iPhone/iPad? Using old tech with new tech!! 3rd purchased cable later we got it working. First thing I noticed is we lose all the modern songs and lessons with the P125. Not a suitable app for a beginner player! All we have is the 50 classic songs to play with. The 50 songs are good but nothing for a beginner. Next major disappointment is how poorly the tempo setting works when playing a song. It resets every time you press stop/play. On an iPhone this is incredibly annoying because the tempo setting is many clicks and views away. On the iPad it is easier to re-adjust but the other silly thing is that you can’t adjust it unless the song is playing. Not sure if the tempo thing is by design or a bug. I hope its on their radar to fix because it makes learning these songs impossible for newish players. All that aside its a very cool app with very smart features. I wish you could add additional songs with scores or unlock the ones it hides when using with the P125. If they allowed that and fixed the tempo then I’d give this 5 stars. Re the USB cable. I purchased a USB host to iPhone cable (usb 2) from amazon. You can’t use an adapter with your apple usb iPhone cable because that’s usb 3 and usb 3 is not supported!
