+## Compiling
+
+To compile the mda Piano plugin, just execute the following statement:
+
+ make && sudo make install
+
+This will copy the compiled plugin to `/usr/local/lib/lv2`. To change
+the target prefix, pass the `PREFIX` variable to `make`.
+
+To build the mda EPiano plugin, pass `TYPE=mdaEPiano` to `make`:
+
+ make TYPE=mdaEPiano
+ sudo make install TYPE=mdaEPiano
+
+**NOTE**: you will need the [lvtoolkit libraries](http://lvtoolkit.org) to
+compile this plugin.
+
+
+## Connecting
+
+You will need an LV2 host to use the plugin. I'm using `jalv.gtk`:
+
+ jalv.gtk http://elephly.net/lv2/mdaPiano
+
+You should now be able to connect your MIDI device to the plugin via JACK. Also
+don't forget to connect the plugin's stereo output to your system's outputs:
+
+ jack_connect system:playback_1 mdaPiano:left
+ jack_connect system:playback_2 mdaPiano:right
+
+I provide a simple connect script with the code which does these things
+automatically.
