Sun Piano Virtual Instruments and MIDI Controllers app for Android description
Sun Piano is an electronic piano for Android. Every sound is synthesized in real time by its own engine, so the app is small and needs no sample downloads.

- Glissando: slide a finger across the keys to play each one
- Loudness from where you touch a key
- Note names as letters or Do-Re-Mi, 7 to 28 visible keys, octave buttons
