This is a piano solo arrangement of a piece from MapleStory 2 called 'Yesterstory'. It's a rearrangement of the 'Login Theme' from MapleStory 1. I used to play this a long time ago! It was a bunch of fun and I have lots of memories playing this.

My IGN is UItimate (with a capital i instead of an L). I started off in Scania right after closed beta, and then eventually moved to Kradia. Haven't played in quite a long time though.

I realized the orange shroom was there to cover his face lol. I was wondering why it was popping in and out.

[quote=juni]@Ultimate: apparently its discontinued and doesn't seem very easy to find anymore thanks though![/quote]
Oh, you're right! Good news is, the P-115 is essentially the new version of the P-140. It's the same price, but probably better in every way T-T
If you are willing to spend more, the P-155 and P-255 are even better.

[quote=turtlebear]very nicely done! I hope to see what more maplestory songs you can play. I think I have a similar piano that you have. How did you import it into your PC though?[/quote]
[b]- First I record the performance with my piano's built in recorder[/b]
This is unnecessary, but it helps back it up in case somehow audio recording goes wrong.

[b]- Connect cable from piano headphone jack to computer microphone jack[/b]
I use a male to male 3.5mm Stereo Audio Cable. It's basically a cord with two headphone jack plugins. Make sure to get a high quality one.

[b]- Open Adobe Audition/Audacity/other recording program[/b]

[b]- Record in program while playing back the recording from my piano[/b]
Or play live if your piano does not have this. Make sure that your piano's volume is loud enough that you can hear everything easily in the recording, but not so loud that the audio starts creating static. You might have to do a couple tests to see how loud you can go without creating static. For me, this is about halfway to max. Also, make sure to turn Windows Microphone Boost off. To do this,
- Right-Click the sound icon on your computer.
- Recording Devices
- Click your Microphone
- Properties
- Levels Tab
- Turn Microphone Boost to +00. 0dB.
- Turn Microphone to 100.

[b]- If your piano sound seems 'small' or 'weak' in recordings, try adding a bit of reverb in your audio program[/b]

[b]- Save as high quality mp3[/b]

[b]- Match up saved audio with video[/b]

[quote=mmorpg]Nice! How long have you been playing? What piano model is that? I'm asking because want to start piano someday.

Also, you should post the video here too: http://www.maplestory2.tv/[/quote]
For about 14 years! I've been really lazy recently though T-T. Yamaha P-140. Yamaha's are really great, but so are Rolands...you should!

[quote=juni]wowow nice. as mmorpg said what piano model is that? sounds great[/quote]
Thank you! It's a Yamaha P-140
