A MIDI file player/game that displays the musical notes AND teaches you how to play the piano.

PianoBooster is a fun way of playing along with a musical accompaniment and at the same time learning the basics of reading musical notation. The difference between playing along to a CD or a standard MIDI file is that PianoBooster listens and reacts to what you are playing on a MIDI keyboard.

To run Piano Booster you need a MIDI Piano Keyboard and a MIDI interface for the PC. If you don't have a MIDI keyboard you can still try out PianoBooster, using the PC keyboard ('x' is middle C), but a MIDI piano is really recommended.

A very simple software to learn basics. I have been searching for something like this for years. Really enjoyed it after connecting to my midi. Use the latest app with more features. Thansk to developer and open source.

Couldanyone update the software to the newest version (1.0) please? There are so many outdated softwares that need maintenance in the repository. Thanks

Surprised to have no hardware issues; in fact, it found and connected to my midi keyboard with zero config. The UI is still a bit rough but should be a 5-star apppost-beta.

Really pleased so far. Connects fine to the digital piano. Load up your midi file, and practice playing. Nice options for isolating left/right hand, different bars on repeat etc. It is also helping me to read music.
