[SEKAIJU] Using Computer keyboard as a MIDI device?

[Shakariki Heisenberg]

Im new to making MIDI or just music in general and i cant really afford to buy a actual midi keyboard and what ive seen with other music editing software like FL or Bandlab is that you can use your Computer keyboard as a device to put notes on a track and im wondering if its possible to, instead of clicking the mouse and dragging the length of notes forever just use a keyboard. (im using sekaiju version 7.9)

You can try using VMPK, which is something I use in a pinch whenever I don't have access to my MIDI stuff.

Keep in mind most keyboards unfortunately won't let you press certain keys together when pressing 3 or more at a time; this is something you'll learn quickly while using this program.

 

That said you should be able to just install it (or maybe you need a virtual midi cable, like LoopBe1, I forget at the moment), and set Sekaiju's MIDI input to VMPK.

I personally consider most MIDI talk to be DOOM talk.

 

Happy composing!
