Wow. Totally looks like animusic...

@jklug11: It's the next best thing for General MIDI on your PC!

[SuperComplexGames]

The beginning (0:00 - 0:39) is really deep...

[dogman15]

@SuperComplexGames: In at least two ways!

[Xyaron666]

i swear this reminds me of zelda!

[dogman15]

@Xyaron666: Parts of it, perhaps. Certainly not the jazz or big band parts.

[GODMONSTERRARGH]

This is why Windows is better than mac.

@MajorSilvaa: Download the program yourself and run it at 1024x768 instead of viewing a low-res 640x480 video degraded by CamStudio. The graphics are great considering that Scott Haag created it all himself, including modeling the instruments and programming them to respond to MIDI instructions.

Sure, the graphics aren't as good as Animusic, but these instruments have to be generic and universal to play any MIDI file AND run on a personal computer. (Animusic is specific and high-end.)

2:17 that song is in paper mario, i SWEAR!

@calahoon22: Maybe that was an intentional reference by David Yackley.

the beginning of this sounds like the rain man soundtrack!
