Any digital piano or MIDI keyboard with a USB or Bluetooth MIDI output. How do I connect it over USB to an iPhone or iPad? With the keyboard's USB cable and a USB-C or Lightning adapter. Can I play a song that isn't in the app? Yes: import its MIDI file, or an audio or video recording of solo piano, and the app transcribes it. What if I don't have a keyboard? You can play on the screen, or on an acoustic piano using the mic. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
