hey guys I'm here with the one smart piano this is a keyboard that leverages the power of your phone or tablet works with iOS and Android devices plugs right in over here then you pull up the one smart piano app and then you can go check out video lessons or you can play games you can do all sorts of cool things with this that you couldn't do with a normal keyboard one of the really cool things about this keyboard are the LEDs that are built into each of the keys and what that means is I can bring up a piece of music here on the iPad and then play along on the piano with the keys lighting up and telling me what notes to play so here I've got a piece of music by Johann Bach and if I start it right here at this low C go to this G this D you can see the lights are lighting up as I play and I can learn how to play the song a little easier it's kind of a nice guide you can also do it by left hand part or right hand part or both hands at once nice and customizable I think it's a good way to help you learn a song those LED keys also come into play with these video lessons if I tap here you can see I get these 105 tutorial lessons basically 10-minute piano lessons I can follow along with so here you see I'm following along with the piano riff from the tonight shows thank you notes and I can should learn how to play this as the keys light up and now it's kind of hard here he's doing it all once he'll slow down and show me each note each part it's a pretty handy little tool I like it a lot the app also has sort of a guitar hero mode for the keyboard where you can load a song and play along and try and get a high score there aren't a whole lot of songs to pick from but it's kind of cool okay hey not bad the one smart Keyboard retails for $300 there's also a full sized version that has the full 88 keys for 1500 that's a lot to spend but honestly this keyboard is pretty cool I like it and if I was a kid and I learned to play the piano I think I would enjoy using the app to follow along with a lesson or learn a new song to impress my family and friends so if you have a kid that like the piano or you want to learn yourself maybe give it a five we've got enough of good
