MIDI Piano 64-bit

[Patrice Terrier]

I have translated the PowerBASIC Borje's PBpianoSDK.bas into C++ 64-bit.

The 117 Kb binary EXE is stored inside of the x64\Release subfolder.
The solution was written with the free Visual Studio Community 2015 edition.

I haven't checked everything, thus if you find any error then let me know.

I did from my best to stay as close as possible to the PBpianoSDK source code.

As you will see the size of the 64-bit EXE UNICODE is very close to the size of the 32-bit version, who said 64-bit was bloated ?

BTW, in original code a %PN_PITCHBEND message is sent to parent and there a %TBM_SETPOS message is sent to Pitch Bend trackbar so it moves on arrow up/down key too, but this don't work in the 64-bit code. No big deal, really - pitch bend works anyway so it's just a "cosmetic" thing.

First post if this thread has been updated with a new ZIP file to fix the above.
