Includes both a Mac and Windows version of the program.
While supplies last, you can purchase the original PianoBox on sale! The PianoBox II has the same sounds, but a blue LCD instead of red and a different method of programming the sounds.
The PianoBox II General MIDI Sound Module includes 128 realistic sounding instruments, 100 variation sounds, 9 drum sets, a sound effects set and 100 drum patterns. Ideal for use with keyboards, your computer, or as a stand alone drum machine, the PianoBox provides an easy way to get realistic playback with zero latency.
The updated PianoBox II includes a blue LCD and easier programming.
The PianoBox II can be connected to any MIDI keyboard. Just connect the MIDI Out from your keyboard to the MIDI IN on the PianoBox II and you can easily play different instruments sounds. You can use the easily accessible top mounted control panel to select an instrument sound, adjust the reverb and control the volume. As the PianoBox II is General MIDI compatible, you can even control the instrument sounds from your keyboard.
Many USB keyboards don’t include built in sounds, which means you can’t play the keyboard without starting up your computer. If you are relying on your computer for sounds for your keyboard, you will experience latency, or a delay between when you strike a key and when you hear the sound – and then the sound may not be very good! The PianoBox II solves this problem! Just connect your keyboard to the PianoBox II and there is no need for your computer. The PianoBox II offers zero latency playback, and it sounds much better than the sounds built into your computer.
You can also connect the PianoBox II to your computer using a USB MIDI Interface such as the MidiFace II Thru. The PianoBox II is GM compatible, which means it will work with virtually any music software, such as Finale, Sibelius, Band in a Box, Sonar, Cubase or Pro Tools. Just connect the PianoBox II and start playback – no more worries about latency, MIDI tracks getting out of sync or trying to figure out how to set up soft synths.
If you are a guitar player, you can use the Direct Input to connect your guitar, and practice songs and riffs by using the PianoBox drum patterns as a drum machine. The PianoBox II includes 100 different modern styles to play along with! Select the drum pattern, adjust the tempo and start jamming!
