This software lets you employ USB devices of your choice as MIDI controllers.
One of the standout features of MidiHID is its extensibility. This software uses configuration files to describe how to translate USB events to MIDI messages for a given device. These files are written using the fast and lightweight Lua scripting language, which ensures minimal processor usage and latency during your performance. With MidiHID, you have complete control over how your USB device interacts with your MIDI software.
MidiHID is designed to work with any USB device compatible with the standard HID protocol. HID stands for Human Interface Device and is a class of USB devices to be used for human interaction like mice, keyboards, game controllers, and more. You'll know if your device is compatible if it has a USB logo on it, along with a mention of "HID compatibility."
If you're looking for some examples of compatible devices, here are a few: Apple Remote, most Guitar Hero or Rock Band instruments, Universal Joystick Controller BU0836X, and the P5 Virtual Reality Glove. Whether you're a gamer or a musician, MidiHID is an excellent software solution for anyone seeking a powerful, customizable MIDI controller.
