KEYSTAGE

Your first gig starts now.

Looking for MIDI devices…

Mic check

The microphone works with any acoustic or digital piano: put the computer near it, play a few notes, and check they show up here.
On a phone or tablet, tap the keys on screen to try it out.No piano? Use your computer keyboard: A W S E D F T G Y H U J K = C to C, Z/X shift octave, Space = Spotlight.

Settings

Show note names on notes Show hand & finger hints (R3 = right hand, finger 3) Play my notes through the game
Turn on if your piano has no speakers or you use headphones on the computer

My keyboard

Crowd sound
A soft crowd murmur during songs. Always off with the microphone. Note speed Input offset (ms)
Set automatically by Calibrate (kept separately for MIDI and the microphone) Microphone: filter out the game's own sound
On a computer with speakers, leave on. Turn off with headphones, and on phones and tablets, where it muffles the piano.

Song title

Pick the part you play (one or two). Everything else becomes your backing band. With one part, the game works out which notes belong to which hand.

Song title Artist It's solo piano (no band)

Keystage pulls the piano out of the song, writes down its notes for you to play, and keeps everything else as your band. It all happens on this computer: nothing is uploaded. The first time, it downloads about 300 MB of AI models (kept for next time), and a song takes a few minutes. Songs where the piano is loud and clear work best.

Find songs

Song

All free, no account needed. Download the .mid file, then drop it onto Keystage (or use + Import file). Arrangements with "piano" or "easy" in the name usually play best.

Calibrate timing

You'll hear 16 clicks. Tap any piano key exactly on each click. Listen, don't watch.
