In search of an online piano

One of my previous sketches Melody Conversation used a MIDI input to allow interaction using an external MIDI piano (or other instrument).

It would be useful to have a similar MIDI controller that uses a copmuter’s keyboard to input notes to MIDI. It is proving hard to find one

Some possibilities:

https://virtualpiano.eu/

https://apps.musedlab.org/aqwertyon - UI here has a kind of karaoke function!

• It also works a midi controller for https://phhu.org/melody-conv/! This is fantastic.
• According is possibly a more natural instrument for a computer keyboard (pegs have similar layout, and relative lack of dynamic control of each note more appropriate)
• Conclusion: need to investigate this project more: can I embed it? Can I have it produce real time score?

pitch recognition

Might also be possible via ml5 pitch recognition

See implementation at https://magenta.tensorflow.org/maestro-vocal-coach - good UI! (though I can’t get the microphone to work)…

For ML5 pitch detection see https://learn.ml5js.org/#/reference/pitch-detection and https://editor.p5js.org/ml5/sketches/H8iUid_ADl

• the piano on this works… but Ican’t play it…

https://github.com/kevinsqi/react-piano is a react piano. Good. Needs events mapped to midi?

[https://github.com/djipco/webmidi] might be useful to get it to work. See also https://github.com/kevinsqi/react-piano/issues/62
