Features & Capabilities

You can use this app to connect your Yamaha digital instrument with an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad. Compatible instrument users can transfer the content to the instrument using a Wi-Fi connection. You can also back up your instrument data or restore data to your instrument. Use the iOS/iPadOS "Files" app or iTunes file sharing feature to transfer data from your computer or various cloud storage services to your instrument.

[Functions]

  • Backup data on your instrument to the app, or restore data to your instrument from the app. Compatible Yamaha instruments with Wi-Fi capability can connect to an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad via Wi-Fi connection and transfer content. You can also connect your instrument to an iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad and backup your song data to the MusicSoft Manager. You can then transfer the song data stored in the app back to your instrument.

  • Data management Changing file names and other functions that are more time consuming to perform on the instrument can be done directly and easily from the app itself.

  • Seamlessly share data with your computer and cloud storage using the "Files" app and iTunes file sharing. The "Files" app integration allows you to transfer data from your preferred storage services (such as iCloud Drive, etc.) or your computer to MusicSoft Manager. Data stored in MusicSoft Manager can also be backed up to your preferred locations.

User Reviews

Users report MusicSoft Manager as unstable and often unusable, with crashes during device recognition or MIDI transfers. Compatibility with several Yamaha instruments is inconsistent, and some devices are not reliably recognized. iOS version support seems problematic, and ongoing updates appear lacking. Dropbox integration is unreliable and file access is cumbersome. Overall, many reviews describe a lack of sustained vendor support and outdated functionality.
Pros
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and instability, especially during device recognition or MIDI transfers.
  • Inconsistent device compatibility across Yamaha models (e.g., CSP-170, DTX502, Tyros 4, EW410) and a lack of reliable support for multiple devices.
  • Compatibility issues with iOS versions (notably iOS 13 vs iOS 14) and a perceived lack of ongoing support or timely updates.
  • Dropbox integration is unreliable or limited (device connection caps, and difficulties locating copied files in Dropbox).
  • Claims about device or feature support (e.g., new updates claiming DTX502 support) are not reflected in the instrument lists or actual functionality; overall impression of abandonment by the vendor.

Despite the demo video telling me I could use this app, I can’t get the app to communicate correctly with my CSP-170. Quite disappointed. I addition, Dropbox support is no longer useful, since they limit the number of devices that can connect to the Dropbox account unless you pay a premium, which I am unwilling to do just for my piano.

I can no longer transfer midi files off my DTX502 drum module because the app crashes mid transfer. The app is fixed for iOS 13 but not iOS 14....can we get an update?
