You don't need any other plug-ins, but you do need a good sound card in your computer. Make sure it has a latency (i.e. the time between pressing a key on your piano and hearing an actual sound) of 10 milliseconds or less, or else it won't be much fun to play! Hi Wilson,

I'm a bit new to digital music, and I have the following questions: 1. I'll soon be getting a basic digital piano (Casio CDP200R). It's a decent piece at an affordable price. 2. Other than playing straight away on this digital piano, I wanna explore more musical possibilities, and so I will hook it up with my computer. 3. So if I have the Casio linked with my computer which has been installed with a software such as TruePianos, does it mean that my Casio will simply be used as a MIDI keyboard to control music output by the software Truepianos? 4. If I really go with TruePianos, do I need other plug-ins? (since TruePianos seems to be quite a powerful and versatile software) Would appreciate any othe helpful hints. Many thanks!
