Product Description:

Sometime it's nice to not have to plug in a keyboard to play around with a softsynth, especially when you're writing one. So here's a little app you can use instead. It shows a little keyboard on screen, and you can use the computer keyboard to play MIDI notes. 'z' through ',' is the octave starting a middle C (note 60). The keys on the row above are flats (black keys), and the octave below is on the row starting with 'q' (and the digit row is that octave's flats).

In addition, you can select a MIDI source and see incoming notes played on the keyboard.

What's new in this version:

increased the octave offset range to -4 through +4 to encompass more MIDI notes
added Spanish localisation
MIDI through should work now (it works on my system)

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

Mac OS X 10.2

Additional Requirements:

Mac OS X 10.2 or higher
Either an external Midi synthesizer with a Midi interface, or a softsynth like SimpleSynth

Hi, I'd like to suggest you implement a chord input function. I used to use a similar program for os9, called caps2midi I believe, and even though I always have an actual midi controller keyboard hooked up, I used the caps2midi program to play around with chords quickly and easily.
