MIDI Tools

This suite of MIDI tools is nothing less than AMAZING. Whether it’s using the monitor to track /trace MIDI messages, or using the key zones to route upper and lower keyboard keys to different synths ~ you’ll find yourself leveraging these utilities over and over again. They work GREAT in AUM and make the fine tuning and finesse work easy. Now hear this - if you’re a Guitar to MIDI user, you’ll LOVE the Curve utility. It’ll help eliminate unwanted string bumps even out your MIDI signal. Overall….I can’t say enough about this set of utilities. Great job!!

This is one of those plugins you didn’t know you needed ;) I mainly got it for MIDI Curve, and it’s simply perfect. Exactly what I wanted. I use it in NanoStudio as a MIDI FX. The reason I need it is, sampled instruments sound differently at different velocities because they have multiple layers. In the studio where they create the samples, they record the instrument with a mic and they create multiple layers. First they play all notes of the original instrument at the quietest then they hit the keys harder to record the next layer etc. Good quality sampled instruments can have many layers, and when you play them, the harder you play, it seamlessly jumps to the next layer. So when you hit harder on the keyboard it doesn’t just get louder, it also jumps into the next layer where the actual sound is different. But sometimes you just don’t want it to go into certain layers. This piano sample app I got for example, when you play softly it sounds mellow, but if you press harder it sounds differently - harsh and bright. On a real piano with weighted keys you can learn to play just the way you want it to sound, but midi controllers with standard keybed have a different sensitivity so you can get those unwanted sounds into the track accidentally. If I’m making a more mellow track, I just don’t want any of those harsh bright sounds at all. Also electric pianos have this, and it’s even more exaggerated with them. Because louder sounds are meant to be distorted on EP’s. Which is awesome and I like that. Except sometimes I don’t. So how do I tell my EP to play as loud as possible but just don’t go into that distorted range no matter how hard I strike the keys? Well there is no setting for that. The best you can do is change the curve inside the EP or piano app, but that affects playability, and still there’s no fixed hard limits that you can impose. So in this MIDI Curve plugin you can set the limits. Super easy too. Just hit the keys hard on whatever app you’re using and keep turning down that threshold till it just doesn’t go into unwanted layer. Takes just a few seconds to do this because UI is clean and straightforward. And you can set the lower threshold too, so it will never go in the very quiet layer. It’s not going to ignore the very light presses, just interpret them as the new minimum that you set. There are other features in this plugin, but I mainly use it for setting upper and lower thresholds. Easy and quick! It’s like a missing feature that shoul

Route midi fx crashes NanoStudio 2. I was trying to record my midi fix scaled bud to midi so I purchased this app but as soon as i load this under ScaleBud in midi fx it messes up the obsidian sound then crashes

I got this specifically to record midi au fx in beatmaker since, as of this review, it won’t do it natively. The midi route effect solves this issue and it’s so simple and quick. THANK YOU

This has much potential hope it keeps updated but we need nano 2 support
