How to use my piano on my computer?

Q. Is there any way for me to plug my keyboard piano into my computer (even if it requires buying accessories or plugs etc.) ?
OR
Does anyone know of a computer program where I can type in what chords/piano notes I want and it puts them down for me? I can do it by hand so this is just a question.

A. All you need is a cable with suitable plugs.
If the piano is stereo the computer end needs to be a 3.5 mm stereo plug. Same type as headphones plug.
If the keyboard has stereo line out socket/s it could L&R RCA's or a 6.5mm stereo socket or even a 3.5mm stereo socket.
If it doesn't have dedicated line out it should have a headphone out.
A local electronics store should stock whichever combination you need.

RCA: The type used for VCR's
3.5 mm: The small size used for headphones on a computer.
6.5 mm: The larger size used for guitar cables.

If you don't have a recording program Audacity is a free audio recording and editing app.
I've used it for my el cheapo keyboard and once the input settings are adjusted the result is very good.

Lame if you need it to encode to mp3:

Original Question

Does anyone know an app or website that can play an instument for you?
Q. You would just supply the notes or chords you want to play, when to play them, and how long to play them. I don't know how to play piano or guitar but I need it so I could write a song. I don't have enough time to learn! Please help.

A. Yes, the GTR Guitar website ( http://guitar.nxgtrsim.com ) lets you load and play guitar tablatures right in your browser!, and has 3 major advantages over Guitar PRO:
1) It is FREE, as in free speech and as in free beer. (guitar pro costs $60 usd)
2) Comes bundled with hundred thousand of guitar tablatures (guitar pro comes with 0)
3) No-installs, this runs right in your web browser.

Have fun!

Original Question

Smartphone app or pc program that listens to music?
Q. I was just wondering if there was an app or program that can listen to a piano song and tell me the notes that were played. Or hear a guitar and tell you what chords etc. ? I ask because I don't have a musical hear at all and I can't tell just by hear, I need technology!

A. The only apps I know of that have anything to do with guitars and stuff like that is the kind the does the tuning
