CASIO MUSIC SPACE is an app exclusively for Casio digital piano and keyboard users. When connected to your Casio piano or keyboard, the Casio Music Space app acts as digital musical score, a music teacher, a live performance simulator, and as an all-round app to enjoy learning and playing music. It’s for complete beginners, people taking up an instrument again, and anyone who wants to experience a new way of playing. Expand your enjoyment of music by watching, listening, and playing through the app.

*Note that not all models support all features of the app. Please see here for details.

Piano Roll

The piano roll makes it easy to see which notes to play even if you don’t read music. It’s a great way to have fun learning while playing.

Practice at Your Own Pace

If the tempo is too fast, slow it down and practice the difficult parts as many times as you need to until you’ve mastered them.

See Your Progress with Scores and Recording

See how well you played with a score automatically calculated by the app, and listen back to your performance with the recording feature.

A Varied Library of Songs to Choose from

The app contains piano songs and keyboard songs for you to practice and play – and you can also use your own MIDI files. Many of the piano songs can also be played on a 61-key keyboard. The difficulty level and your score for each song is displayed in the app’s song list.

Score Viewer

“Musical Score + Sound” lets you see and listen to a wide range of music on your smart device.

Supports Pedal Operation to Flip through Music

You can use the damper pedal or three pedal unit to flip through the score via USB cable or wireless connection - convenient for playing while sight-reading the score.

» Casio keyboards do not support this function. Click here to find out which piano's, Casio pedals can be used to turn pages on.

*If your piano model does not support page turning, you can alternatively use a commercially available Bluetooth® pedal with your smart device.

Music Player

Play along with your favorite songs. Connect your smart device and playback songs through the instrument’s speakers. Perfect for creating a session-like atmosphere, accompanying songs, or practicing parts of songs for a band.

Display Your Own Songs in the App

Display a complete list of songs stored on your smart device. Search by song title, artist name, and more.

Play Songs Your Way

Adjust the tempo, change key, repeat play, and cancel melody/accompaniment to suit your playing style.

» The effectiveness of the melody/accompaniment cancellation function varies according to the song.

Live Concert Simulator

Turn everyday playing into an extraordinary experience. Feel the excitement of live performance at home.

The app analyses any performance on a connected instrument or song on a smart device and automatically adds audience sounds according to the excitement of the music. Add a new dimension to your playing with this unique performance experience.

Performance venues

Auditorium: The unique sound of a medium-sized, roofed hall
Jazz Club: A small venue with an intimate audience
Classical Hall: Simulation of a large hall with long reverberation
Piano Lounge: A casual space to listen to music and enjoy conversation

Nature

A wide variety of environmental sounds and sound effects are used to create the sound of rich natural environments not normally experienced when playing.

Beach: The sound of waves and the occasional seagull
River: The gentle murmur of a flowing river with birds singing in a forest
Rain: Thunder dramatises the performance based on the intensity of rain

Piano Remote Controller

Connect your smart device to your digital piano and control various settings remotely without the need to operate the piano itself.
