Modartt user forum » Pianoteq user forum » Is it possible to have more than 88 keys in Pianoteq Standard?
The standard version of Pianoteq allows for microtonal tuning; for example the piano could be tuned to 53 equal temperament. But if I do this, it's not possible to reach the extreme registers of the piano since this would require more than the standard number of keys. Is there some workaround that allows you to use microtonal tunings with more than 12 notes in an octave and also make use of the normal range of the piano?
Does your MIDI controller have octave +/- buttons?
I don't know about the micro tonal stuff but you can certainly have multiple midi controllers and set those to different octaves both extra low or super high if you wish so you can spread your instrument across the various keyboards.
Owing to its previous version (which wasn't licensed thus could take liberties with the design) the Steinway D along with the Modartt fictional ideal creation called K2 both can be used with an extended octave range, both in the treble and the bass.
So maybe you want to add a couple of 25/37 key controllers!

So far I've been using the standalone version but I intend on using some software MIDI controller like Rosegarden - I just haven't figured out how to set up MIDI output to Pianoteq on Windows yet.

Thanks for this information - the Steinway D just so happens to be the instrument I have!
