[b]Why Early Access?[/b]
“Maestro VR still has a lot of development to do. Early access is extremely valuable to us at this stage, as it will help us get a better idea of how people use the app and what kind of improvements they would like to see. We'd also like to foster a community around the app that will get people to share their creations in midi format supported by the app, which is one of the main ways Maestro VR shines as a teaching tool.”

“With the current list of upcoming features, a realistic estimate would be a full release in mid to late 2023.”
