Are you tired of small, boring, musical instruments?
Do you want to use your creativity to make music on an evented instrument inside a game, instead of playing the real deal? (which is much easier)
Then this might be the solution!!:
King Leo Instruments presents:The maestro
This is my most recent creation. It's a full-size (maybe a bit
too large :D) keyboard with 4 full octaves (C2 to C6).The piano is fully functional and comes with a number of features:
Features:- Comes with a
record feature. Record your playing! The current piano can store 32 notes, but this can easily be expanded to 128, if the customer wants it. (I think 32 notes is more than enough for the average user :P)
-
Listen to your record with the built-in playback feature! Jupp, not much to say here.
- Choose between
5 different playback speeds. Again, this can be modified if wanted. Playback currently only supports full beats (4 notes if the time signature is 4/4)
- A lid to protect the keys.
- For all you lazy folks out there:
Chord mode! Play Major or Minor chords with one finger ('cause chords are hard to play with only one mouse)
Future versions may include support for Add7, Sus2, Sus4 or Diminished chords.
(if requested)
As a nice feature, the piano can also play a couple of songs. No, the songs don't play via musicbricks, but are
actually played by the piano! Since all keystrokes are shown, you can use this feature to learn the songs!!
Songs include mostly classical pieces such as:
- J.S. Bach: Prelude no.1 in C major, from The Well Tempered Clavier (BVW 846)
- J.S. Bach: Prelude no.2 in C minor, from The Well Tempered Clavier (BVW 847)
- J.S. Bach: Prelude no.15 in G major, from The Well Tempered Clavier (BVW 860)
- J.S. Bach: Variation no.1 from the Goldberg Variations (BVW 988)
- J.S. Bach: Bourree in E minor (BVW 996)
(lol, writing this down made me realize that i added waay to much Bach ;D)
- Ludwig van Beethoven: Piano Sonata no. 14, 1st mvt. AKA "Moonlight Sonata"
- Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony no. 9, final mvt. AKA "Ode To Joy"
- Joseph Haydn: Symphony no. 88, final mvt.
- (very wip) Rimsky Korsakov: Flight of the bumblebee
For some less classical stuff, I've added
- Metallica: The Call of Ktulu
- Flåklypa Grand Prix theme (creds to you if you actually know that movie)
- Billy Joel: And So It Goes
So, if you have any suggestions/requests, feel free to share them :P
I'd love to show you how the piano works, but my crappy PC can't handle BL and a recording program at the same time :( EDIT: nvm

The save is probably going to be released in the future, but I still consider this a WIP and want to add more stuff to it. Also, it uses some non-default bricks which I want to reduce as much as possible, so that people don't need to download loads of different brickpacks.
Here is a small video that shows of the chord-mode and record mode. Playback at different speeds is also demonstrated. Thanks alot to Duke838 for filming!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXwCUxJqeAQFeel free to rate it X/10
