MidiPipe software allows users to modify MIDI messages in real time. Perfect for musicians and producers, it is a great solution for customizing MIDI output on the fly.
MidiPipe is a freeware software with no warranties that has been extensively tested and shown no major problems; however, it is not yet complete. It can come in handy in a music studio or on stage as it is capable of modifying MIDI messages in real-time. To use this software, Mac OS X 10.2.8 (Jaguar) or higher is required, with 10.4 (Tiger) being the recommended option.
This software boasts a range of features that are useful for real-time MIDI message modification. The Midi In allows users to connect a MIDI input to the pipe, while Midi Out connects a MIDI output to the pipe. The AList function outputs messages to the screen and the Message Converter function converts messages from one type to another.
The Delay feature allows you to schedule messages, while Transpose transposes note messages up or down. Message Filter and Channel Filter functions are also available, allowing users to filter by messages and channels. The Channel Router lets users route channels and the Keyboard Split moves note on/off messages above/below a split point to another channel.
Users can randomly change any parameter value(s) of any channel message(s) using the Randomizer feature. The Keyboard function allows users to play an on-screen keyboard with their mouse or keys and will display arriving messages too. The MicroTuner feature helps to apply different scales, while the Set option sets any parameter value(s) of any channel message(s) to any value.
In addition, there is the Duration feature which adds a delay between Note On and Note Off messages, Control Split function that inverses, limits, scales, fade in/out, route and maps MIDI controllers, and the Control Slider, a simple slider for control message input. The AppleScript Trigger function allows users to use the power of AppleScript to implement everything they want, while the (N)RPN Mapper is available for (N)RPN mapping.
Users can also utilize the Velocity Modifier to scale, shift, and clip the velocity of Note On and Note Off messages.
Finally, the SMF Player plays up to 128 MIDI files and handles Song Select, Start/Stop/Continue messages, while the Key Mapper maps keys. The "DLS Synth" tool is also included, which is a user interface for Apple's DLS Synth.
