Hi Chung, as standalone midi it isn't really of much interest to me, the first thing I did was check to see if you had a vst version out.
You have ! Alas, it crashes FLStudio on XP. Is XP the problem here ?

I tried the plugin version, sounds really cool but switching pianos caused Savihost to crash. Also, can it have more polyphony? I have 512 fingers.

the VSTi version is in beta.
I have made some changes and tested it with Cantabile Lite and VSThost.
It should work better , try it ?


polyphony : 128 notes polyphony is the max fbsound(freebasic) can give.Its should be enough for many normal usages.

(07/07/2012) midi recorder / player added
(16/07/2012) custom audio plugin support added
(17/07/2012) 3band gain/equ/cross plugin example added
(17/07/2012) audio plugin2 support added
(19/07/2012) myecho.dll plugin added
(01/08/2012) my4echo.dll plugin added (no latency added)
(22/08/2012) import midifiles in the recorder added

about latency : estimate latency as 4 buffer length time (modified fbsound), so on my small netbook with window7 when i get 130 samples buffer length, it is the same latency as one 130*4=520 samples directsound buffer i can get with Cantabile Lite VST Host, which is acceptable. Included effects : all effects are done at once in the same audio loop, so there is no latency added due to them.
note: with faster computer, you can get even lower latency.

i have downloaded Savihost (freeware) and tested it with the latest version of midipiano_chungVSTI and it works fine for me.Plus, i discovered Savihost and like it, i will use it now, but finaly prefer Cantabile Lite.

[Moved this announcement here from a separate thread (now deleted) since it belongs in this thread.]

Just wanted to try this out but can't get it to work in Reaper.

Here's what it looks like and doesn't make any sound:



I downloaded from here, is this the correct place ?

I extracted the zip in my plugins folder, looks like this:



Did I do something wrong ?

Thanks.

there is a little tips on reaper test here

(23/08/2012) tested on Reaper (you'll have to select "bypass audio while opening plugin" in vst preferences)

Its interesting, doesn't sound bad, even if not entirely realistic. If it weren't so buggy, I'd consider using it more.
