1. Music score and piano roll notation make it fun and easy to learn!

Chordana Play displays the music score and piano roll notation for built-in songs and MIDI files. With MIDI files, you can select which tracks to play with your left and right hands, or you can assign the melody to the right hand and chords generated by the app to your left hand. Slow the tempo, transpose the score into a key that is easier to play, and with the AB repeat function, take lessons (practice) at your own pace.

You can take three-step lessons using the virtual on-screen keyboard. Select from 128 kinds of tone quality. Plus, a scoring system lets you keep track of your improving skills.

2. Use the 50 built-in songs or import standard MIDI files

Play one of the 50 songs included in Chordana Play, or add MIDI files.

Chordana Play can generate a music score from the MIDI file and detect chords, too, making it easy to learn to play two-handed piano pieces. You can search for and download MIDI files using the browser on your smartphone or tablet, then import them directly into Chordana Play. You can also import MIDI files from your computer to Chordana Play.

3. Practice anytime and anywhere

Using either the app's keyboard or a USB-connected musical instrument keyboard, you can take a three-step lesson while following the music score and piano roll. The scoring feature makes mastering a song even more fun.

5. Keyboard Link

Supported CASIO Keyboard models

LK-265, LK-266, CTK-2500, CTK-2550, and CTK-3500

Stereo mini to stereo mini cable required.

The keyboard link function enables you to use an audio cable to send melody and chord data along with the audio playback. Use the keyboard's light-up function and practice step-up lessons directly on the keyboard itself. The function has two modes.

Performance mode

When a song is played, the light-up keyboard shows the left-hand part and the melody. The notes and chords for the melody are shown on the keyboard's LCD.

Save mode

You can transfer and save the song's right-hand melody and left-hand chord data, or the left-hand performance data, to the keyboard. You can then play along to the song and use the step-up lesson function.

Song audio is sent using the left channel of the smart device stereo output, while the melody and chord data is sent on the right channel.

On the CTK-2500, CTK-2550, and CTK-3500, notes and chords for the melody are shown on the LCD

- If using right-hand (melody) and chord data, up to approximately 880 notes of the right-hand part can be transferred to the keyboard, assuming two chords per measure for 200 measures.

- If using right-hand (melody) and left-hand (accompaniment) data, up to approximately 1100 notes can be transferred.

- If non-note MIDI data (patches, pedals, etc.) is included, this reduces the number of notes that can be transferred, leading to potential errors even if the approximate limit of 880 or 1100 notes is observed.
