Summary

I would love a ton if someone could make ABC Notations in RPG Maker. It has been done a few times in video games allowing players to play music via a text file or even from the instruments themselves where you can pound on the keys and make music. Can even bring instruments into the game overtime etc   Here is a wiki page on it: LOTRO Example I did years ago:
