• any chance for a roland pcr 10 to work on windows 10?

  Get FreePiano. If your MIDI interface is working, FreePiano will make a sound when you press keys. It's piano sound isn't the best, but it's decent enough for testing and learning to play. It can also use VST plugins. Source: over 1 year ago

• Which software do I use to just play Piano?

  Freepiano. On top of being free and letting you get started right away, it is also a VST Host (VST 2 only!) Watch out for the volume, though. It starts up with the volume at MAX, and with the sustain pedal On. Playing that first note can be quite annoying. Just click once near the sustain fields (can't miss them, right above the keyboard) and then turn the volume down to about half. Source: over 1 year ago

  If you're on Windows, FreePiano. It's a piano all by itself, connects to MIDI devices, and can use VST2 plugins (32 or 64 bit, depending which version of FreePiano you download). It's own default sound is actually a VST you can use in other VST hosts. And it can use ASIO4ALL to get rid of that nasty Win Audio Latency. Source: over 1 year ago

It comes with it's own piano sound, but also can use any VST2 plugin (make sure if you get the 64 bit version, your VST2's are 64-bit as well). You can point Freepiano at the MS Wavetable Synth, but it's not a great sound. Source: over 1 year ago

• Help - Play Piano over Pc

  There's a thing called FreePiano. It's nothing great, but the default piano sound leaves a lot to be desierd, but you can use standard VST plugins to replace it's default piano sound, so you can 'upgrade' to a better piano sound later. Super simple to set up and use - just remember to turn the volume down and click on the Sustain field when you first start it up. It's always max volume when it starts, and the...

• Ask HN: What audio/sound-related OSS projects can I contribute to?

  JUCE: http://juce.com/ Tracktion: http://tracktion.com/ Both very powerful audio frameworks - JUCE does plugins and audio drivers and low-level DSP, oh my - and Tracktion does all the stuff a DAW needs, on top of JUCE. There are tons of ways to contribute, from building open source samples, to testing, or even adding functionality. Both dev teams are open to good quality PR's being submitted and both frameworks... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Melodyne Essential plugin missing from Waveform 11 Pro

  I haven't yet found anything helpful on either tracktion.com or celemony.com. Has anyone run into this and figured out how to get Melodyne working as a plugin under similar circumstances? TIA for (constructive) suggestions. Source: about 3 years ago
