Guild Wars 2

What is Midi? Midi allows you to connect your e-piano or any other controller to the computer. By pressing a note on the controller, the software will recognize it and play the according note. Not the sound of the instrument is transferred to the software, just the notes are.

Hey,

this was already suggested in the forums and via reddit, it got many upvotes. I don’t know how hard it is to impy Midi-Support to a game but it would add so much to the game. Imagine waiting at world bosses and people play amazing music. Or waiting in the Heart of the Mists, LA and other places and listening to music.

For me, eventhough I play many instruments in real life, it is impossible to play the ingame instruments right now. Most people just use macros doing this. This playback stuff has nothing to do with music, which should interact with the world around the musician(s).

Well and I have another idea:
How about playable Pianos standing around at few paces in Tyria, like at waiting areas. Trolling is easy to avoid, you can ofcourse mute those instruments.

kind regards, Feliciano from Piken Square [EU]

i would appreciate more instrument.

did you see any lotro videos?

Something like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oH99V5cPKTI

hail guardians

edit: and still i don’t get if they are gonna ban who uses macros for playing instruments.

Wow I did not knew this guys, very impressive!
I have seen some concerts like this in GW2, too and it is amazing but I don’t know how people are able to do it and it could be a lot easier and lead to even better results

Lotro was made also for these things ( don’t know how many instruments, but still a pleasure to listen while playing ).

Gw2 has some instruments but more would be nice ( also are all from shop, so a not for everybody ).

I know this song. Sang it last night…

I had to do it myself but i do wish there was official support for midi.
