You can do this in a polyphonic version of Melodyne but it would be a tedious task. Honky tonk pianos are unique in that each string is slightly out of tune, thus for a treble note that would be three strings per note. Thus each note in Melodyne would have to be copied and detuned, so forget about it!

But you could take the RT and copy it a couple of times and slightly detune each. This of course would need a DAW.

If you go MIDI there are a number of free honk tonk pianos available, just google/bing free honky tonk vst.

Good luck.


I get most of my exercise these days from shaking my head in disbelief.
