MusicSoft Manager
Additional functions in new version
MusicSoft Manager, which debuted in 2012, is an Yamaha app for iOS devices, that allows you to manage and move content across devices. The update provides a convenient one-stop process for purchasing, transferring and backing up content, helping you get the most out of Yamaha instruments and Apple devices.
Purchase data in the shop for your instrument
Data that is compatible with Yamaha digital instruments and ideal for practicing and playing can be purchased from the MusicSoft Manager shop. MIDI Songs, Style Files, PianoSoft and Registrations are available.
MIDI Songs are available for a large number of songs in a wide range of genres, from pop and rock to jazz and classical music. You can practice your favorite songs with lavish accompaniment and slow the tempo of the accompaniment or mute the part for one hand so that you can practice at your own pace. Style Files, PianoSoft and Registrations are also available. Style Files data provides a personal backing band that is enabled by simply holding the chord allowing you to enjoy lavish ensemble pieces even when playing alone. PianoSoft songs are specially designed for piano playing, and Registrations automatically set the ideal tone and accompaniment for playing each song.
Transfer data easily
Song data purchased in the application can be transferred straight to a Yamaha digital instrument by connecting the iPhone, iPod touch or iPad to the instrument using a Wi-Fi connection or cable.
The song data can also be transferred to a computer or Dropbox*, and data from other sources can be imported to the instrument from a computer or Dropbox.
* Dropbox is a free online storage service provided by Dropbox Inc.
See https://www.dropbox.com/ for details.
Data backup and management for added convenience
Data in the instrument, such as recordings of your own playing, can be backed up by adding the data to the in-app library.
Convenient data management functions are also provided, with easy changing of file names and intuitive folder management operations.
