Look in the programs folder where sonar is located. Virtual piano might be found under those directories and just needs to be installed.

This would be a graphical representation of a midi keyboard, where you can also use the keys on your computer's qwerty keyboard to enter midi notes. Because I have Sonar and jaws on my laptop as well, it would be handy to not have to take my real midi keyboard along with me, if I intend to compose somewhere else than at home. Using your computer's keyboard as if it were a piano would be handy. The virtual piano, according to the CakeTalking manual, is something that needs to be installed before it will appear in the midi devices input list. Unfortunately, I can't find it anywhere in Sonar help, nor did I find any useful pointer to it on the internet. Where do I find the virtual piano driver, so that I can use my computer's typing keyboard to enter midi notes as if the keys on the computer were a piano? Kind regards, Paul. ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
