Medleyan®

Medleyan® is a software product that provides a collection of built-in MIDI data processors, which are called Tools.

One or more of the included Tools are hosted in a resizable virtual container called the Rack, and can be arranged in any order. Incoming MIDI data stream is passed into each Tool in the Rack sequentially from left to right.

The output of each Tool feeds the input of the next Tool in the Rack, and so on until the accumulated MIDI output is passed back to the DAW or otherwise sent to the intended destination.

You can add as many individual Tools (and as many of each) as you like to the Rack (subject to available system resources), and arrange them in whatever order makes sense for the situation. Want to see what’s going on with your MIDI stream at various points in a Rack-load of Tools? Go ahead and add a couple of Monitor Tools to the Program, and let them show you!

Medleyan® is currently offered as a Standalone App and Audio Unit v3 MIDI Effect plugin for iPad.

Many computer music composers and producers use MIDI extensively. Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) products often include built-in MIDI processing features, but they can be hard to find , difficult to use, and lacking in capabilities. The configuration of all the various MIDI settings and routings can often be complex and confusing, especially when multiple MIDI devices and plugins are in use. There are a lot of third-party MIDI processors, arpeggiators and sequencers available, but they can be expensive, complicated and unintuitive. Medleyan® is a software product that offers a collection of 14 different MIDI processors, which are called Tools.

Besides digital music production, Medleyan® can be used in several other compelling ways. Our favorites include including music theory education, and the testing and troubleshooting of MIDI routings and data streams.
