Hi Jeanette, I actually own and enjoy a Yamaha Motif ES8, which is quite versatile. It has a lot of features, except very limited memory (somewhat expandable but I am chicken to take it apart and install more), the USB connector only takes very old devices, and it has a tiny LCD screen which does a lot, but any good computer monitor would put to shame. So, my dream is to be able to use a very basic weighted keyboard, connected to free software that is at least as capable as the Yamaha. Mainly, I use it as a conventional keyboard instrument with many
voices, but also playback midi files for accompaniment, so I feel
like i am with a small jazz group. Many individual components exist in free software, the problem is to put them together in a well designed manner. I think Musescore would be a good start. Bob PS: I have done a little development that you can see at https://sourceforge.net/projects/gmorgan/,
For some unknown reason Debian would not update to an improved
version .79, so people shouldn't use the Debian version. It can easily be compiled from Sourceforge.
