- How to make a simple mypiano application.
- Posted by TheOne on May 23rd, 2008
I'd like to hear what difference it would make, if an octave were
divided into 13 or 14 notes, not conventional 12 notes. So I'm
thinking about writing simple piano application with 6 black and 7
white keys on ms windows. (I speak c, c++, mfc on visual studio.)
Fancy effect isn't what I want, but neither do I want a BEEP-piano.
Is there any simple piano keyboard application avaiable in VC or C#? I
searched the codeproject in vain. Simple midi(?) handling might
suffice my need. Any suggestion?
TIA.

to one address. How the keyboard is tuned - equal temperament, perfect 5ths,
whatever - is immaterial, and for a particular keyboard may be able to be
configured using MIDI sysex commands. Your best starting point is probably a
soft synth, find one that you can set up as you want, ie. 14 notes per
octave. I can't say I've come across anything like that but it's certain to
be around somewhere. Once you have that part done, it's a matter of finding
out how to drive it, which may involve MIDI commands, information on which
is easily available.
