amusudan

so I am making a game, and I am making it so that the music is randomly mixed every 30 seconds it picks 3 new tracks (drums,guitar and piano).
my dad does the guitar.
I do the drums.
but noone I know does piano, is there any free program that would make it possible to make simple piano tracks?
something like this but then for piano.

For paid I highly rate Band in a Box to do musical stuff that sounds far more impressive than my skills allow!

If you use E. Piano 03 - and untick the little box 'LFO' (Low Frequency Oscillation) that should stop most of the wavyness.

And on the desk slider, analog synth, turn the delay and reverb knobs all the way down to zero.

It's an E-Paino and sounds more like Rhodes than an actual Piano. What kind of sound are looking for?
Also it's just a synth, the wavyness yould come from the sine waveform this preset uses.

The E-Piano 1 from the FM Synth sounds a lot better IMO

Keyboard sounds can vary a lot tho.
If you are looking for a sampled piano you can use this online sequencer, I played around with it a while ago and just remembered. http://onlinesequencer.net/123581

Yeah it's annoying that can't properly adjust the length of the notes, but it's still pretty good for being for free.
I saw people that did that tho, haven't figured it out myself.

If you have a mac or an iphone you can use Garage Band for free, I think.
The iMaschine app for iPhone also seems good and cheap enough, but it's not so easy to work with.
I'd love to help you out, but I don't have my software and samples installed anymore.
