MidiKit 4+

I wish I found this 10 years ago

I use Cubase to create my midi files (much easier than using Logic Pro). But it’s a pain to edit, then save to a new file. Enter Midikit! This app allows me to edit the file easily and save a new file. I don’t use it to play midi files, but it can. I use Sweet Midi Player routed to Roland Sound Canvas VA. To route control midi, I use Midifire (another of my favorite apps because of the tools it has for routing, changing messages, etc). I'm just a happy camper now that I don’t have to go back into Cubase to do simple editing, adding, removing of midi events in the file. Thanks MIXAGE for a great app!

Properly handles corner-cases!

After spending an afternoon writing my own MIDI parsers and filters and transformers using several different Python MIDI-manipulation libraries... well, this app "just worked".

Every other "roll it myself" option would mostly work, but there were always oddities in the MIDI files produced.

This app effortlessly sucked in, edited, and spat out MIDI files that could even be used by my esoteric (and rather old) MIDI consumers.

Well worth the money, and thank you for the effort putting this app together!

Can't realy edit everything

I am trying to add a program change for channel 10 drum set on a Ketron. The MidiKit pulldown menu only lists a few options in GM and doesn't seem to let you enter a bank and program number other than those shown. Another example where simplicity is more important than flexibity in use. I just need a simple list editor with access to all the fiels, which this evidently is not. Would give 5 stars if I could accomplish this one thing.

Touché!
There is actually a workaround: change the channel from 10 to any other, choose program change (by number), and restore channel 10. It's not elegant but it works.
In any case I welcome your suggestion and the next version will allow you to choose any of the 128 PCs on the drum channel.
Thanks for your review :)
