## Description

Piano Modoki is a lightweight, ad-free instrument that recreates a piano-like feel using FM synthesis rather than sampled sounds. It delivers piano-like timbres with fast response and a small footprint. It supports multiple temperaments, including Equal Temperament and Just Intonation, so you can explore tuning concepts beyond standard tuning.

Key features include scalable key sizes, a double-row keyboard with flip option, a metronome, transpose and pitch-frequency controls. It can connect external and virtual MIDI devices, and some DAWs support Inter-App Audio. It ships with two sounds (FM Piano-like and FM E.Piano) and can load patches to customize your tone.
