Three ways to play

Learn, practise, play.

Whether you're putting your hands on a keyboard for the first time or preparing a whole piece, Zalmaya adapts to what you're after.

Learn

Lessons of just a few minutes, one idea at a time.

Twenty mini-lessons to find your way around the keyboard, find your first notes, feel the pulse and play your first melodies. Visual hints fade as you progress, and what you've already learned comes back for review.

  • On the on-screen keyboard or your MIDI piano
  • XP progression and a daily goal
  • Units 1 and 2 are free

Practice

Virtual hands to show you the way.

Zalmaya works out a fingering for every note and shows two hands above the keyboard, with finger numbers. Slow the piece down, let it wait for your note, and move forward at your own pace.

  • Adjustable speed and wait for notes
  • Automatically calculated fingering
  • A–B loop and hand assist with Premium

Performance

Play the whole piece, and aim for an S rank.

Every note is judged the moment you play it. Chain combos, follow your accuracy live and find your best score in your library. In immersive 3D or classic 2D view, your choice.

  • Perfect, Good and Miss judgements
  • Score, combo, accuracy and final rank
  • Best results saved for each song
