It dawned on me that you do not have a chance to listen to the performances of Polish users, so I will throw you with a little spontaneity. I also reveal myself here, on this piano that makes so many mistakes. :D
The recording was made completely spontaneously in August, and Polish Elteers take part in it instrumentally and vocally.
It is a folk Polish-Ukrainian song.
I'm sorry for the imperfections, but spontaneity is spontaneity. :D

You could also miss it, because it was regarding only Poland, but last year, Prowadnica organized a Elteners concert. We formed a band and organized a Christmas music tour.
We still have a while until Christmas time, but this is how it looked like - it is one of the Polish Christmas carols.

Marco, what an awesome keyboard you have! That ethnic flute and the accordion are particularly good. And it even lets you apply auto-tune to your own voice? Thing is, you could make it less precise/strict to make the corrections sound more natural, because it currently makes your voice robotic and causes false notes.
By the way, speaking of keyboards, I have a question: I have a Yamaha something for over a decade and I have to press the power button so hard to switch it on that it feels like my finger's gonna become part of the keyboard. And I can't even use the key to switch it off, so I just unplug the cable. And the samples are not so realistic so I am considering buying a new one but as far as I know, many recently-manufactured keyboards have a touchscreen rather than keys, which should make things difficult for me. So you may not know what keyboard comes preloaded with Turkish instruments but just in case you do, any help would be greatly appreciated. What would you recommend?

No!
I must be strict to Myself Enes, because It can move You forward.
Also, those accordions and serbian flute frula are part of one of expansion packs, which I have currently installed on My keyboard.

I actualy agree with Enes here. This way you aren't strict to yourself, but you rape our ears with this weird autotune. Do it if you really need to autotune your voice, but try what Enes says.

In the next post, I'm attaching a song that I composed a short time ago. I wouln't say it's ggood, because it isn't, I made it only for fun. If you know Rush E, this one is literaly a concept clone of it. Besides some tempo issues, I hope you'll like it :)

Your song isn't bad, but:
Try also something new in the music. For example, try to listen and explore new compositions for piano. Those compositions are not so experimental, but rather ambiental. Good examples are some nordic composers.
But, if this song can be for children, or some kind of hungarian entertainment (It has an ambient of this), It is good idea.
Nextly, try use sometimes midi quantization, if It is possible. If not, It doesn't matter. Because It really depends on this, what You want to compose, record or create. There are various music styles.

This was just made for fun, to create something along the concept of Rush E. I was inspired by Gerod's creation, and I was thinking like why not to try, I don't lose anything.

I like it a lot, and it sounds human if you know what I mean. Some pieces lose their spontaneity when quantized.

Just like auto-tune, you can set the quantization to be 100% precise and strict, or leave some room for flexibility and naturalness.

It depends on this, which effect do You use. Ofcourse, in Reaper there is this function to increase, or decrease this autotune. But, some VSTs haven't this function.
Sometimes I prefer MIDI quantization, but more to parts with drums, bass, strings, or instruments, which leads a melody.
But try present to apply quantization in some quick melodies of some balkan accordion. It is just inpossible.

It isn't. Slow down the audio while applying the midi quantisation. Slow process but it works.

Maybe yes, but It losts this naturaleness. I don't believe, if for example some artists of Turkish Pop applied quantization to for example, some bağlama licks. I think, that It is same with accordions in balkan Turbo-Folk music genres. Ofcourse, some tracks must be quantised, I agree with It. But, I can't present It.
It is similar situation, like with some oriental scales with quarter tones. Or, what about indian classical music? Ofcourse, with VSTs It is strange, but not every people have patience to learn, how to play tabla, sitar, sarod, mridangam, bansuri ETC. They rather uses VST musical instruments and It isn't just about blind people.
