What's New in Smart Pianist

3.10.0

June 11, 2026

Added a new compatible model. Changed the tone played when importing PDF piano and vocal scores. The way stream lights/guide lamps indicate how to play the chords when you import PDF lead sheets now feels more natural (CSP series, CVP series, and P-S500 only). Made other minor fixes.

Crashes constantly

I want to love it. When it works it’s amazing, but the crashes kill the experience. It especially crashes when trying to open imported music, seems to be no rhyme or reason to why.

This app is lowkey kinda peak🔥

The app has been great so far— I have yet how to figure out how I work the sheet music for my recorded songs. Otherwise, the app is easy to navigate and I genuinely love it. ❤️ Have fun with this.
