Companion

Click this link to access the Companion App.

This Companion works in your browser. Connect your midi piano to your PC and refresh. You should see your piano listed. To get the IP address of your Quest, go to settings inside VRtuos. After you input the IP address, click connect. If the app says "Connected", you can go back inside VRtuos and play.

Custom midis

After you have succesfully installed VRtuos, you can go in and enjoy! There are many preinstalled midis to get you started.

If you want to, you can download your own midis.
Go to this page and learn more about them. Find some midis there, or just use google and you'll surely find some good ones. When you have them downloaded on your PC, connect your Oculus Quest via USB. Make sure to click Allow in the headset.

Use either the Windows File Explorer or the Sidequest File Explorer and navigate to this folder: \Android\data\com.PavelMarceluch.VRtuos\files\Midis\

The Companion App will soon be able to import your songs for you without any file manipulation.

Put all your midi files there. You can split them up into folders. You can also copy the Background.png file from the root folder and edit it to fit your needs. Every folder tries to load it's own Background.png, so you can have a different background for every folder you have. You can not change the aspect ratio or name of that image.

When you now restart VRtuos, you should see all your songs and folders after you calibrate. You should also see your custom backgrounds.

About VRtuos

VRtuos is a VR piano learning app for Meta Quest devices. After you calibrate your real life piano, VRtuos will load any MIDI song and show you the individual notes falling down onto your keyboard. VRtuos also has the ability to wait until you press the correct notes, or score your accuracy.

VRtuos is NOT a replacement for professional piano lessons. VRtuos cannot teach you music theory, how to read sheet music, etc. VRtuos is here for people who enjoy playing alongside apps like Synthesia.

About me

Hi, my name is Pavel Marceluch and I am a Unity/C# developer from Czechia with several years of professional experience. In my free time, I like to play indie games, 3D print, cross-stitch, watch musicals, or do literally anything else to escape reality.

I have been working on this app with occasional help from my friends since December 2019, and I appreciate all the support that I get. Thanks to everyone who helped and supported me. ♥
