You need a '''RBPi3''' [https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-3-model-b Raspberry Pi 3 Model B] or [https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-3-model-b-plus Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+]
    
RBPi2 is not longer supported by official zynthian SD images. If you want to use a different RBPi version, you should rebuild your own SD image. Also, you can try with the experimental ZynthianOS images from here:

'''Important:''' If you don't expand your partition, you will have problems when updating zynthian software or library, as you will run out of space.

=== I have a license for Pianoteq6, what would be the process to enter the license key ? ===
+
=== I have a license for Pianoteq 6, what would be the process to enter the license key ? ===
''Is the process easy ? Is it done via a graphical interface ?''
  −
 
  −
You need a Ethernet connection (Wifi or cacble - Wifi has range problems when Zynthian is inside a metal case!)
     −
ssh to Zynthian:
+
You have to access the webconf tool and follow ''carefully'' the instructions from the "Software->Pianoteq" section.
    ssh zynthian.local
  −
Login (as root or pi)
  −
Start PT on the Zynthian. The Window of PT should be redirected via ssh.
  −
Add your license like “normal”
     −
Caveats: If using putty or anything else on Windows make sure that X11-Forwarding is activated.
+

=== Does the pre-built kit come with a rpi3 or 3+ ? ===

=== Does the pre-built kit come with a RBPi3 or 3+ ? ===  
''If 3, is it possible to order the pre-built kit without it since I already have a rpi3 doing nothing here ?''
     −
The 3+ is highly recommended, especially with Pianoteq.
+
Bundle All Kits come with a RBPi 3+. Check the shop's product descriptions:
   −
Full kits come with a Rpi 3+. Basic kits come without a Rpi  http://shop.zynthian.org/shop/category/zynthian-v2-basic-kits-4

''I know some people have experimented with audio input and was wondering if this would be added to the “official” Zynthian kit at some point and if so, how hard would it be to “upgrade” to it ?

   −
There are no firm plans for including an audio input device in the kits at this time.
+
We are working for adding "audio input" to official Zynthian Kits. We hope to release the new kits by spring/summer of 2019.
