as long as you are placed on a software track (as opposed to a real track),
then the midi keyboard will play the currently assigned instrument. Opening
up a project with the piano template will automatically create a software
track and you will be positioned on it when the project opens. turn on the
keyboard and start noodling around.

Cheers! Will check this out. Do I need to do anything before this will
work, like inserting a new track?

the keystroke combo command shift K toggles on or off the midi keyboard

asdfg and qwert rows play the chromatic scale notes, and the keys z & x
shift the keyboard by octaves.
You can look in the "window" menu item to check or uncheck the midi
keyboard feature in case I got the hotkey wrong.

Hello all
sorry if this sounds basic but is it possible to play midi notes using
your mac's keyboard? If so how? I know of some midi programs on the
other platform that allows you to do this, cutting out the requirement
for an external midi keyboard. Any responses would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks!
Chris.
