Digital pianos offer various networking options. This connection of digital pianos allows to practice and capture and distribute different styles of music. 
​
We will show you how you can attach your digital piano to your specific phones, Android devices and Apple iOS devices in this post. 

If a digital piano has MIDI connectors, MIDI cables must be used. 

The cable MIDI IN end is attached to the MIDI OUT port on the Digital Piano to connect your digital piano to your personal computer. The cable's MIDI OUT is connected with the digital piano's MIDI IN port. 

If the keyboard sound is to be registered, then the job can not be accomplished through a MIDI connection. Just the output details (e.g., how strongly you have played, etc.) are transmitted through a MIDI interface. You can play software instruments on your computer with this MIDI information. However, it's not a video clip! 

Will you want to do it? Any challenge. You can already record MIDI if your keyboard has a USB-MIDI connection. Therefore, what you need is a video recording gui. If your keyboard has no USB MIDI nor standard MIDI connectors, use a MIDI and audio adapter (see above the iRig Pro duo or iTwo Audio box). You should do MIDI and audio like this

The first step towards ensuring the connection of the digital piano with the PC is to ensure the digital piano is fitted with either MIDI port or USB ports. The digital piano would then be attached to the cable to connect to the device. 
​
The USB A to USB B cable will be used while the portable piano has a USB port. In the case of a portable piano with MIDI ports, MIDI to USB cables can be included. 

In addition to being highly compatible with the digital piano, the device contains applications which prove highly efficient in recording music. Many applications allow piano players to edit files that can be stored in folders and record them. 

Computer programs are used in a wide range of forms, even to filter out unwanted noise during the recording. There are also programs with a clear work to further enhance or sweet the music by adding extra musical components.

In reality, linking your digital piano to your mobile or PC is much simpler. Cables and devices are all you need. 
​
Piano applications will allow you to properly understand pianos and even though you can not read the sheet music, you will be able to play pianos! 

So your growth and progress was affected by the recording of your musical works. Recording of digital pianos can really be successful of proper ability and proper execution. Test any of the tips listed above during your play sessions. 

We should post a best piano app report to download. Hold tuned! Keep quiet! 

You got a good little piano now and played on it for a bit. Yet the system itself seems to require good cleanliness and to be wondering how this elegance can be preserved. As you're afraid you'll ruin your priced house, you are unsure what to do. Who can trust? Who can? Where to go? Where to go? How do you have to do to return to your initial condition?

Below are few steps to clean your keys. You will comply. Recall that incorrect methods could damage the keys.

Step 1 : Make a cleaning product. Take a little bowl and add 2 drops of light fluid to warm water. 

Take a clean moist cloth that is colorless and soft. Dampen the solvent marginally and brush it separately on all white keys. During this process, any fingerprints or dust on the key is removed. Then take another fresh soft cloth to clear some moisture on the keys. 

Step 2: White Key Clean 
Take a wet cloth and dip it in the solution to clean the piano's white keys. Ensure the fabric is not too raw or too dusty, and has no dyes on it. Rub it softly around the keys after rubbing it in the solution. Each key is better transmitted separately. 

This is meant to remove stains and dust from them. Then, grab a dry cloth and place it on the keys carefully. The trace left in the solvent will be drained. 

Step 3:
You can use soap or a mild detergent, mixed together with little water, when the keyboard is really dirty. Make sure you use a spare soft tissue for cleaning every time. Moisten the tissue a little and pass it across the keys. Using a separate rag to clean the keys off. Be sure the keyboard should not leak water or the key will be broken. Both the keys with a clean soft cloth are essential to dry. 

If you can't clean any stains, please call a technician or professional tuner for assistance. Do not attempt to scrub them with toxic or abrasive chemicals on your own. 

Digital piano instruments are typically well handled and last for years. Clean keys are necessary in order to work properly and look at them. You can end up doing something wrong to the key if you're not careful to clean the keys. Check consumer manual for procedures approved for cleaning by the packaging firm prior to implementing any cleaning technique. Often put the guitar in an outstanding place using the piano with clean moisture hands free. Reading and applying these directions will make for an efficient cleaning of your digital piano. Such activities should guarantee for many years that you love practicing your wireless piano. 

As noted above, how to clean piano keys is easy to know. A good cloth, a soothing wash and a little practice will feel and play your piano keys as well as the day you took in your piano. To stop those "sticky" keys, it is important to keep your piano keys clean. 

A mild gentle dusting on a daily basis using a feather duster often tends to avoid any waste being stuck in the buttons. 

Enjoy the smooth touch of your piano and play your new piano with pleasure! 

You would definitely have been here because you have an acoustic piano. You continue holding one of your buttons. The presence of a piano is one of the most frustrating things and although it is not normally too often, you may have problems living in a warm or damp environment. This is the most frustrating thing. In this article we should learn how to hold piano keys, how long it costs to repair them and how to repair yourself on the piano keys. 

TWO's very common reasons I found why a piano key should stick. Continue to read and find out why the instrument may be troubled.
​
I've already stated this, but that is by far the most common reason for holding piano keys, which I face almost every day. During my life in Britain, where we don't get damp or hot summers in particular, my piano is very prone to heat, and a lot of keys are on the far ends of the keyboard that swell up and stretch. But you will find it problematic if you are in a very humid climate. As stated earlier, wood expands and contracts to heat, and greater moisture and temperature will stretch your piano keys. Later in the post, we will go over how to fix it. 

The keystroke is the thick wood behind the keystrokes. Wood swelling may occur, particularly in high humidity regions. Sometimes a leaning player will click the button and push himself to the buttons. Anyway, a key can be added to your keyboard. Only take the lock and pull it forward in order to rectify it. You can sometimes have to remove the screws below the keyslip and put cardboard panels between keyslip and endblocks (easily produced by folding business cards). The aim is to create some space from the keyboard to the keyboard. 

To check if a swollen key triggers stickiness, push the right pedal (also called the support pedal) and keep it down. Then play the key gently when holding down the button. 

Has the key returned to its original position? If so, it doesn't last at the time. Keys can stick one day and not stick on the following day because of the changes in temperature and humidity. 

If it doesn't come back to the top, hold down the key halfway, then click the buttons to the left and right automatically. Repeat it repeatedly, and then release the original key. Now repeat the key while the support pedal is held down. Is it back to the rest of the way? If so, the sticking key has been set. 

Here's the easiest solution. However, it takes some confidence to take the keys from the piano to slide below. You have to contact the technician if you're nervous (which I understand fully). Upstream pianos are usually very easy to break apart; behind the music desk there is the big rectangular portion of wood, and the key board. The large rectangular area is usually held together by catches on both sides and can be removed easily. 

The drop board should only be lifted, since it is generally held by the large rectangular portion. All you have to do now is pivot the key and make it easier. To see what's below, you will want to delete some buttons. Take a vacuum cleaner or use your hands to clear anything in it. Only reassemble when you're done. The keys normally have numbers that tell you where the keys should be mounted. 
​
You need to call a technician if those corrections are not working so that you risk destroying your system.

Substituting old keytops with the latest molded plastic surface (parts) is a whole new look and relatively easy procedure for your keyboard. You will have to have one or more rim razors or thin bladed blades, any "touch cement" or PCV glue (other adhesives are also useful for this purpose, but these adhesives are fast, solid and do not need clamping, just as other adhesives do. Because you don't need to clamp you can remove keytops without cutting the keys of the piano, there is a real advantage. ​

Look like the piano keys in the pictures above? I hope not. I pray not. There is a workaround if you don't want the piano keys. You can remove the old keytops and replace them with new, durable keytops that will surely improve your piano appearance. 

The images are from an old plastic spinet with keytops that were cracked, broken and stained in this article. Old scratched, faded or absent ivory keytops are often often replaced by a new collection of plastics. Normally I would not recommend replacing keypads on an old spinet, because the piano 's monetary worth typically does not warrant the replacement cost. Yet in situations like these, the piano has a nostalgic value and always blends well with the interior of the house. 
​
The wood stick on which they are adhered has to be milled to accommodate the new keypads that are heavier than the old ones as old keytops are replaced. 

​Keep this in order as it is impossible to bring them together if they are all mixed up. If they fall out of control for whatever reason, it is best to number the buttons.

​Use a sharp chisel or knife to remove the old keytops. 

​Sand the key surface gently to ensure that all the remaining old glue is eliminated and that the new keypads have a smooth surface. 

​Dispense on the top and fore side of the key a thin layer of PVC-E glue. 

​Ensure that the keytop sides are in line with the key sides. If the key is a little high, make sure it hangs over the excess key top, because this is the simplest place to file and looks nice.

Overnight, let air. You can smooth any overhang with a flat metal file to make the key top fit your keys accordingly. 
​
The sharp replacement technique is the same. If your new sharps are ebony wood, the simple old carpenter's glue like Elmer's will work fine in a pinch, but you have to hold the key firmly in place for 10 minutes, to let the adhesive settle. With any key material, touch cement is simpler. (NOT use hot, slow-drying glues like Elmer's if you replace an old ivory keyton on the key, as moisture causes ivory to warp). Give me an email or call if I can, if you have trouble fitting the keytops.

Nothing scares the hearts of piano players like the name of stride piano. This almost unlikely old style is like ragtime on steroids, driving pianists to the edge. The left hand alternates a deep rhythm, mostly played in tenths, with near middle chords, while the right hand supplies harmony, syncopations, notes, and runs. The total effect is an implacable eighth-note swing. 
​

What makes this method difficult is the need to leap a reasonable way to get from the bass note to the chord and back. And when you 're first practicing this method you want to minimise the gap you need to leap to minimise the difficulty of the chords. A good way to achieve so is by using tenth triads and direct tones. Choose a relatively simple song that uses a lot of 2-5's preferably when chords shift every half bar (like Satin Doll) and learn to play as follows: 
​
For the chord play a broken 10th triad (root – 3rd & 5th) 
Play root notes for the V7 chord and switch to direct tones (root-3rd & 7th) 

1. I'm using rootless voicing chords. If you need more help in constructing these chords, test this entire tutorial on rootless piano chords. 
2. A low bass note is struck on beats 1 and 3, and chords (toward the middle of the piano) are struck on beats 2 and 4. 
3. You should apply the stride piano rhythmic pattern to virtually every jazz standard that's in 4/4. 
4. This particular style will also fit well on other rock classics. Songs like The Beatles' "When I'm 64" or Elton John's "Bennie and the Jets." 
5. To speed the tempo on the step piano and not drag, remember to keep your hands close to the keyboard. 
In other words, don't make the jumps wider gestures than they ought to be. It's slow and force you to lose your pacing. 
6. The last chord I play is a D7 chord. I'm using a flat nine as a top extension so you might use either reference as an altered scale extension. 
7. If you need more help learning jazz piano, see this huge list of other jazz piano lessons.
