I'm a keys player and wanted MainStage on Windows, so I built a free, open-source one

Hey all. I play keys, and the go-to app for running your sounds live (MainStage) is Mac only. The Windows options are either paid or not really built for keyboard players, so I started building my own: GigChain Keys. It's free and open source (GPLv3), and runs on Windows, Mac and Linux. What it does so far: - Runs your VST3 instruments and effects, with a setlist where every song has its own sounds (switching songs is instant) - A mixer with splits and layers (bass in th

痛点：Windows 平台的现场键盘手缺少类 MainStage 的演出音色/歌单管理软件，现有 Windows 方案要么付费要么不是专为键盘手设计。

目标用户：在 Windows 上做现场演出的键盘手、乐队键盘手、教堂/酒吧驻场乐手

证据：I play keys, and the go-to app for running your sounds live (MainStage) is Mac only. The Windows options are either paid or not really built for keyboard players, so I started building my own: GigChain Keys. / It's free and open source (GPLv3) / I'm looking for keyboard players to try it at home or in rehearsal and tell me what breaks before anyone trusts it on a gig.

变现：开源核心 + 付费 Pro（高级路由、场景自动化、Setlist 云同步、预设/音色包市场）；或做面向乐队的托管版与技术支持订阅；也可做演出前配置服务/教程变现。

MVP：2 周内做一个 Windows 精简版：VST3 宿主 + 每首歌独立音色与秒切歌单 + MIDI Learn 一键映射 + 低延迟音频设置向导，先只保证稳定性与崩溃恢复，去掉练琴/和弦图等边缘功能。

竞品：MainStage (macOS only)、Gig Performer、Cantabile、Camelot Pro、Ableton Live、Forte、Bitwig Studio

摘要：一位键盘手因为 MainStage 仅支持 Mac、Windows 端方案要么收费要么不贴合键盘手需求，于是用 AI 辅助开发了免费开源替代品 GigChain Keys（GPLv3，支持 Windows/Mac/Linux），已实现 VST3 宿主、歌单秒切、分层/分割混音、MIDI Learn、和弦图与演出模式。项目仍是早期 alpha，作者在征集键盘手试用反馈，尚未出现任何付费意愿原话或收入数据，但『Mac 独占 vs Windows 付费竞品』的缺口本身已被 Gig Performer、Cantabile 等付费产品验证。创业机会在于面向 Windows 现场键盘手的稳定性与演出可靠性，而非功能堆叠。
