Bome s Mouse Keyboard description
Bome's Mouse Keyboard - simulate a music keyboard which you can play with the mouse or the computer keyboard

Use your mouse and the computer keyboard as a music keyboard! This program lets you play music as if you had a MIDI keyboard connected to your computer. For example, compose your songs while on the road with a laptop, or play software synthesizers like Reason live with the computer keyboard. Additionally, it can serve as a virtual control surface, using mouse, mouse wheel, and joysticks as input.

Bome's Mouse Keyboard application was designed to simulate a music keyboard which you can play with the mouse or the computer keyboard. You can control your MIDI devices without having a real keyboard - for example you can play the internal synth of your sound card. With a virtual MIDI cable (for example Hubis Loopback Device or MIDI Yoke) you can play any sequences into your sequencer or route your external synthesizer through the chord-maker of Bome's Mouse Keyboard. Additionally, you can define knobs and control with them any MIDI controller. Furthermore, you can use your mouse wheel and the joystick to send controller messages.
