CSound question(s)

I've been frustrated trying to realize retuned .midi files with a really
nice piano voice, and I'm wondering whether CSound might provide a
reasonably priced answer.

It's fine with me that CSound works in non-real-time, because I have
real-time options that are good enough to tweak the tuning. But when I
have a tuning I'm satisfied with, I'd like to push a button, come back
later, and have a .wav file with a really stunning piano sound.

CSound users, can you tell me: is such a thing available, and for
what price?

(Implicit in the process is .midi to CSound conversion, which I think
I've read is readily available...)

Thanks!

I have created a piano piece with csound and some decent samples.
Arranging any tuning is easy. Actually with modern machines one can
work in realtime. I could play a MIDI keyboard slowly through my
antique SGI R3000 soem years ago, and this Linux machine is 20 times
faster.

I can help if you want a draft orchestra. Samples is a little
harder....
