Divisimate Micro

Divisimate Micro allows you to play monophonic instruments in chords by splitting up incoming notes and sending individual voices to different instruments in real time.

Divisimate Micro runs as an instrument plugin in your DAW, but on its own it does not produce any sound. It connects to four virtual MIDI ports that are created and managed by the Nextmidi Hub, which then can be used as MIDI inputs for instrument tracks.
Incoming MIDI chords are split up into individual musical voices and can be routed to these instruments, allowing you to play any set of virtual instruments or synthesizers as an ensemble.
Plugins can be added to individual parts to transpose them to create new voicings or trigger specific articulations.

Four instances of the plugin can be used at the same time, each connecting to 4 ports, bringing the total to 16 different ports.

When we developed Divisimate there was actually nothing of its kind on the market - there were no standalone solutions to divide MIDI input from live playing and spread it across different instruments.
While Divisimate functioned as a standalone alongside the DAW, Divisimate Micro is the first software of its kind to function as a plugin and to allow multiple sets of different divisi engines at the same time.
Not only does this offer a much easier workflow and low-threshold way of working with our divisi engine, but it also enables a completely different way of working with virtual instruments.
Also MPE and Poly Aftertouch input is recognized and note-specific data is distributed alongside the notes to the respective ports, building a bridge between MPE controllers and non-MPE instruments.

Most instruments using physical modeling to emulate string or brass instruments are monophonic by nature. Playing these instruments in chords and leveraging their responsiveness and playability while playing them as an ensemble is a very inspiring experience.

It is hosted as a plugin in the DAW and connects to virtual MIDI Ports provided by a background application. These ports can then be used as inputs for virtual instruments of any kind.

The plugin is available since May 14 commercially on our website, and wider distribution deals are being negotiated.

The plugin capability of this product alongside the corresponding workflow will be implemented in the upcoming Divisimate 2.0 release, including a lot of additional features for our flagship offering.

For Divisimate Micro in particular we intend to implement an option to use the plugin MIDI out instead of the ports, and a merger functionality to combine multiple inputs in the Nextmidi Hub into a virtual MIDI Port to have a comfortable way to use multiple controllers on one track of Divisimate Micro.
