At a glance

A visual MIDI workflow for getting ideas out faster.

MIDIUM turns drawing into MIDI generation, making pitch, rhythm and velocity feel more like a gesture than a spreadsheet of notes.

Focus

Sketching melodies, basslines, drum ideas and utility patterns directly into a visual instrument.

Workflow

Draw the gesture, refine scale and timing, then export or drag the MIDI into the DAW.

Status

Beta available with Windows standalone and VST3 package.

Interface demonstration

The workflow in motion.

How does the free trial work?

MIDIUM is free to use for 30 days. After that, enter a license key to keep using it.

What does the $10 license cover?

One purchase unlocks both the VST3 plugin and the Windows standalone app.

How do I get the notes into my project?

Drag the finished MIDI out of MIDIUM into your DAW, or export it as a MIDI file.

Will what I draw stay in key and in time?

If you want it to. Scale locking keeps the notes in the scale you choose, and quantize pulls them onto the grid.
