Pianist is the first virtual piano application for the iPhone or iPod Touch available in the App Store created by MooCowMusic. The animated piano keys are super sensitive and feel quite real to the touch. Now you can play along to all your MP3s.
History: Before the App Store was opened, Pianist was originally released by MooCowMusic as a 3rd party mod app available in the Installer application called iAno. The original method for installing the app was to use Installer.app using the following source url (http://modmyifone.com/installer.xml) and located under the Toys category. iAno was then renamed to Pianist and eventually was moved to the App Store where it is now sold.
Here is a video demo of Pianist in action:

Posted on February 14th, 2008 at 1:54 pm by AppminHey I cannot here any sound. And cannot see “sound effects” option under general settings as mentioned. Any help ? I’m using 1.1.2. Thanks
Posted on February 14th, 2008 at 3:11 pm by hereonlinemaybe for the update you can set up a way for ppl to memorize chords of some kind? i dont know how to play piano 😛
Posted on February 14th, 2008 at 7:51 pm by tomI have upgraded my iphone 1.0.2 to 1.1.1 and now with Ziphone2.4 to 1.1.3. But the iano does not work I downloaded it in installer but got a popup after the package was downloaded that “Error Main script execution failed”. Then I removed modmyifone/installer.xml from sources and did a restart. After this I put back the modmyifone/installer.xml in sources and saved and refreshed. But still the same error. The iano is lying on the summerboard screen but there is no sound coming. In Setting-general there is no “Sound Effect” option either. Please respond with a easy way to fix this issue. It looks so cool.

Does anyone know some links or website (tutorials) that explain fix-ing that promlem?
Posted on February 24th, 2008 at 5:02 am by RunerAfter install go to your preferences ->sound effects -> select both, then relaunch iAno. Works great for me on my ipod touch.

Posted on March 5th, 2008 at 11:46 am by AppminYou’re in the wrong place, search is your friend http://appsafari.com/?s=ringtones
You have to go to Settings > General > Sound Effects > And Enable “Both”, before you will get sound on an iPod touch.

Posted on May 10th, 2008 at 8:17 am by wolfit is now called pianist, not iano.
If you do not hear sound from Pianist but you do hear your Ipod it might be that your telephone is on Silence mode. It took me almost a day to find the problem, while the problem solving was soooo easy 🙂
