SmartMusic as a very efficient and enjoyable way to practice at home. The code listed below will let you purchase a SmartMusic subscription for $30 - a savings of $95 over the normal home subscription of $9.95 per month.

Your code is: CMSBBK

 To purchase a SmartMusic Subscription for $30 visit www.smartmusic.com and enter your code to purchase a subscription for $30. (This subscription gives you access to the entire accompaniment library and all of SmartMusic's features for one year from your date of purchase).

RENEWING students make sure you log into your existing account with your e-mail address and password instead of setting up a new account. Please contact us if you have forgotten your password.

You can also choose to purchase a microphone and other accessories. A microphone is required for recording, Intelligent Accompaniment, tuning and assessment. While most microphones (including built-in mics) will work with SmartMusic, we recommend the SmartMusic microphone because it has undergone extensive testing to ensure the best results with the program. It also has a clip (instrumental) or headset (vocal) to place the mic in the optimal position.

Start practicing! You can learn how to set-up and use SmartMusic by watching the SmartMusic QuickStart Videos. These videos can be accessed from the Help menu, the last screen of the Setup Wizard or the Welcome screen before you activate your subscription.

If you have any questions about how to use SmartMusic or encounter any problems, please don't hesitate to call our toll-free Technical Support line at 866-240-4041. Our phones are open weekdays from 8.30am-8pm (CST).
