VKeys 1.0

The VKeys application was designed to be a freely configurable virtual midi keyboard. You can freely assign midi notes to PC keyboard keys, each with its own velocity and velocity randomness settings. You can also map the x and y coordinates of the mouse pointer to two midi controllers. You can use VKeys as stand alone or supplement a normal midi keyboard with the mouse controllers.

VKeys is particularly suitable for playing drum and bass grooves. You can assign for example snare hits with different velocities to different keys, enabling dynamic but still controlled playing. This is not truly possible with a normal midi keyboard, because the velocity sensitivity tends to be too random when playing drums.
