Delicately crafted, finely evented.
LateralWorks 44 Key Professional Digital Upright Piano
This is probably the most advance event build I've ever made, and one of the most advance event builds in Blockland's history. It is probably first proper working upright piano built, capable of playing real songs using a special sound pack and making up for the ability to only use 1 hand by allowing you to record and store up to 26 keys of music using onboard memory. I have spent months making this on and off, and its got over 13000 events so I've had to do a lot of manual save editing, I'm not ashamed to say.
Like a real instrument, I've crafted this with care and put so much work into it. I had the idea about the memory system and didn't think it would work, but after a whole week of painful trial and error re-working hundreds of events over and over I've finally done it.
Technical specs:
- 44 keys focusing on C chords
- Stereo playback with dual chord plates
- Sustain mode (vibrato)
- Open / closable lid to protect keys
- Clean black case
- Custom grand piano soundpack designed for this piano specifically with 88 sounds
- Onboard memory with 25 key storage, free space monitor, overwrite protection, and erase function
- Loopable playback with auto-timing and two tempo settings
- LateralWorks "A1 CPU" with 3 groups, & integrated 25 block memory
This build includes a total of
13,724 events. A true, proper piano for Blockland and musical fans.
This save includes the variables mod, the custom soundpack, and the save with readme. Everything you need to run the build! This is version 1.1, thanks to Slezak for reporting a CPU defect that is now fixed.

About LateralWorks
I've owned and operated Ascii, MicroBlock, Lime Events, IcyElectronics, and other "brands" and groups since 2008 specializing in eventing. So what makes Lateral special?
LateralWorks is not a clan or a group-- event clans never make gallery quality builds. Its just me and my vast eventing knowledge. Good event builds take creative ideas and lateral thinking. Its about figuring out how to build entire event systems in your mind only. Its about taking an idea and making it work with the events you have.
LateralWorks is what represents my best events. Lateral is where I showcase my ideas, and dedication to revealing the raw power of events and creating some stunning and delicately crafted event builds. Few people have such strong passion for events, and I want to offer inspiration to people while providing some really remarkable and enjoyable builds to play with, pull apart, and learn from. Maybe one day, people will see the name "LateralWorks" in the gallery and click it knowing it'll be something good.
Thanks for visiting this topic. I sincerely hope this is as enjoyable for you to use as it was for me to make it.
