Research has proven that children who play an instrument do better in school, make friends more easily, are more creative, learn self-discipline and gain self-confidence. This bundle combines our acclaimed eMedia My Piano software with a robust, high quality, full-size, touch-sensitive, 49-key, MIDI keyboard that you play through your computer speakers. Our specially-designed MIDI keyboard features pitch bend and modulation controllers, MIDI out port, USB port and a sustain pedal input jack. Connect the keyboard to your PC or Macintosh computer’s USB port using the included USB cable. The small footprint of our keyboard makes it ideal for use on your computer desk. A power adapter is not necessary with this USB version because the keyboard is powered through USB cable. Piano sounds play through your computer speakers.
eMedia My Piano covers the basics, such as learning your notes, counting rhythm, and moves on to playing chords, reading music, playing songs, and much more. eMedia’s exclusive animated keyboard shows kids where to put their fingers as the live recorded audio plays. With MIDI tracks, the speed of the music can be adjusted so kids can learn at their own pace. When My Piano is used with a MIDI keyboard, kids get instant feedback on notes and rhythms they played wrong and find out what they should have played instead. Additional features such as a metronome and digital recorder are also included. My Piano is the perfect way to introduce children to playing piano!
Ages 6 and up.
