Get ready for perfect note recognition! All you need is to connect a cable and adapter to your keyboard and phone/tablet.


Equipment

Before getting started, make sure to get a USB-B to Lightning Cable or a USB Cable and a Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter. Here's where you can find them:

*We recommend using an Apple adapter for the best results. However, if you'd like to play silently with wired headphones, you'll need an adapter that also includes an audio jack - here is an example.


Steps

  1. Connect your keyboard to the USB cable (type B MALE SIDE)

  2. Connect the USB Cable (TYPE A MALE USB side) to the Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter.

  3. Last, connect the Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter to your iOS Device. Make sure to do this before starting a level or a song.

That's it! Simply Piano will immediately recognize a MIDI connection and you will see a notification indicating that a MIDI connection has been established πŸŽ‰
