Hi I'm looking for a piece of software that will play a Midi file, and show a visual keyboard on screen, on which the notes highlight, as they are played. Does anyone know if such a program exists?? Thanks Paul

So, Chanteur are you trying to tell us (he asks with tongue very firmly planted in his cheek) that programs that can ACCURATELY convert MP3 or similar audio based music to midi and then display the notes of the song on a virtual keyboard don't exist yet? Can you just imagine the furore amongst the music publishers if such a program were ever to be successfully written and sold widely?? I mean, they go apesh*t enough at people who sequence tracks, so I think they'd go utterly ballistic at a program that could faithfully reproduce in midi file (which would also make it availiable to print out, thereby eating out large chunks of the extremely expensive sheet music market) songs which they make huge wads of cash from..... so roll on the day that program is born - at least the underdogs may just get an even break for once. And before anyone mentions it.. I am aware that songwriters need to earn money for their works... but how many of you have ever seen a music score for popular music that was totally accurate - or indeed worth the huge amounts they cost? maybe if the publishing and record companies didn't rip joe public off in the first place (or bitch so much about midi seqencers having a go at programming a song into the computer or workstation), the demand for net downloads wouldn't be so high. :-O sorry bout that.... didn't mean to get on the soapbox.....I'll go take a soothing cuppa chocolate now, calm me down a bit....

Power Tracks Pro Audio ( www.pgmusic.com )is my choice, very affordable and has a good Chord Wizard. With decent foundation in music and knowledge of your midi instrument(s) you should be productive minutes after the sw load. As others in the group have stated the "magic wav to midi (mid)" is still awaiting the magic. So find the song, learn it, play/record as a mid and print.
