Unlock the full potential of your MIDI devices with MIDI Keyboard Macros—the revolutionary application that turns your MIDI pads, keyboards, and controllers into sophisticated macro triggers, app launchers, and more. Whether you’re working in music production, graphic design, video editing, or 3D modeling, this software allows you to execute complex macros and shortcuts with unprecedented ease. No more juggling between your keyboard and mouse—control everything you need right from your MIDI device.
What is MIDI Keyboard Macros?
MIDI Keyboard Macros is a powerful tool that expands the functionality of your MIDI pads, keyboards, and controllers, allowing you to use them as custom macro triggers for a wide range of applications. This application is a sister tool to the Multi-Keyboard Macros but is designed specifically to leverage MIDI devices. Now, your MIDI equipment can trigger shortcuts and macros for everything from text editors and music apps to graphics programs and 3D design software.
Key Features
1. Launch Windows Shortcuts and Macros
Take full control of your system using your MIDI devices. MIDI Keyboard Macros allows you to map Windows shortcuts and macros to your MIDI pads, knobs, and keys, enabling you to execute commands in a flash. This makes it perfect for all kinds of applications, from text processing and graphic design to music production and video editing.
2. Beyond Simple Macro Triggers
This isn’t just about triggering basic shortcuts. MIDI Keyboard Macros also supports advanced functionality like MIDI rotation and slider controls, using its powerful Scripting Language. You can create highly customized macros, such as using a single MIDI slider to cycle through tools in Photoshop, adjust brush transparency, or select a specific clipboard with a knob. The possibilities are endless.
3. Velocity Sensitive Pads for Dynamic Control
MIDI Keyboard Macros takes it a step further by incorporating velocity sensitivity into its functionality. For example, a soft press of a pad might trigger one action (like moving to the next word in a text processor), while pressing harder could trigger a different action (such as selecting the next word). This allows for more nuanced and efficient control over your applications.
4. Visual Clues for Easy Macro Selection
Never again take your eyes off the screen. With Light Touch, simply graze your finger across the velocity-sensitive pads, and the macro name will be displayed on-screen without triggering the macro. This visual feedback helps you navigate your setup without making accidental changes.
5. Customizable Pad Colors for Easy Organization
For devices like the APC Mini or similar matrix-style launchers, you can easily assign and control pad colors directly from the interface. Additionally, you can customize the lights through scripts for even more personalized functionality, giving you greater control over your workspace and workflow.
6. Control On-Screen Elements
Even if your application lacks shortcuts for certain functions, MIDI Keyboard Macros allows you to control on-screen elements such as sliders, buttons, or even move sliders directly from your MIDI device. Now you can manipulate your apps just like a keyboard or mouse, but with the precision and speed of MIDI controllers.
7. Match and Click for Seamless Automation
New to MIDI Keyboard Macros is the Match and Click feature. This allows the software to automatically find elements that may not always be in the same position, such as buttons on web pages or text entries. Simply define a search area, and the software will visually locate the element and click on it—just like a human would.
Types of Macros You Can Create
1. Shortcut Macros
Create simple keyboard shortcuts that can be triggered with a single MIDI pad or key. For example, a single press could execute CTRL+C or any other shortcut you need.
2. Complex Macros
Build infinite combinations of shortcuts, text typing, mouse clicks, key presses, and pauses. Need to perform a series of steps with one press? MIDI Keyboard Macros makes it easy to create complex sequences.
3. Text Typing Macros
Automate the process of typing text with ease. You can create macros to type frequently used phrases, such as greetings, signatures, or addresses, all with a single press of a MIDI pad.
4. Keyboard Recorder and Player
With the Quick Macro Record function, you can record keyboard macros for any Windows application. Simply press the Play key, and the software will replay the recorded macro, saving you time when you need to repeat a set of actions.
5. Launch Applications and Websites
Easily launch applications, open folders, documents, or even web pages with the press of a button on your MIDI controller. This function helps you streamline your workflow and keep everything at your fingertips.
6. Complex Scripted Actions
For advanced users, the Script Editor opens up a world of possibilities. Create custom scripts that process clipboard text, load and save files, use MIDI sliders and knobs, and so much more. The powerful scripting language allows for unparalleled control and customization.
Why MIDI Keyboard Macros?
1. Unmatched Customization
MIDI Keyboard Macros is not just another macro program; it’s a highly customizable tool that gives you total control over your MIDI devices. With the ability to script your macros, set up velocity-sensitive actions, and assign colors to pads, you can tailor the software to fit your exact needs.
2. Streamlined Workflow
Using MIDI Keyboard Macros, you can manage your entire workspace with a single MIDI controller. Whether you’re switching between apps, controlling on-screen sliders, or executing complex commands, you can reduce the need for extra input devices and speed up your workflow.
3. Supports Multiple MIDI Devices
You can add multiple MIDI devices to your setup, each with its own set of macros. For example, pressing note A2 on one MIDI device might trigger a completely different macro than pressing the same key on another device. This flexibility allows you to tailor each device to different parts of your workflow.
4. Perfect for Any Application
Whether you’re working in graphic design, music production, or 3D modeling, MIDI Keyboard Macros can help you control your apps with precision. With its ability to launch apps, trigger shortcuts, and automate processes, it’s an essential tool for streamlining your daily tasks.
5. Incredibly Intuitive Interface
Despite its complex functionality, MIDI Keyboard Macros is designed to be user-friendly. The interface makes it easy to set up and modify macros, control your MIDI devices, and create the perfect workflow without needing to dive into complicated programming.
