Ok, GPL and Apple's policy are not compatible.

How about Android? Android is probably a better bet ?

You can compile Qt Applications for Android with the Necessitas Framework (http://sourceforge.net/p/necessitas/home/necessitas/), BUT:

a) As far as I know the score visualization in PB is done with OpenGL. Android supports only OpenGL ES, so this part has to be rewritten.
b) the connection between piano and android is painful since there is no smartphone which has a serial port. So you have to use a special "MIDI to USB(-Host)" or "MIDI to Bluetooth" converter.

Hi.

Very interesting Hannonfreak.

 I have an ipad size ( 10"  ) Android tablet with OTG - USB connector.
I try to connect my usb midi connector which is working well with my desktop pc.
If its working - why not?- standard usb device and linux- the only question will be the cross compile and rewrite necessary functions.

Should find a Developper to compile.

Thanks.
Robert
