Never Found has released MG-Mini, a free MIDI grabber for Windows that turns played audio into MIDI notes directly inside your DAW.
MG-Mini is built around three simple actions: GRAB, DRAG and DROP.
Press GRAB to capture what just played and place the detected notes onto your project’s timeline. The resulting MIDI can then be dragged directly onto a track as a .mid file.
MG-Mini also supports dropping an audio file onto the plugin to extract MIDI from recorded material instead of live playback.
The plugin includes two detection modes:
- Single Line is designed for monophonic material such as leads, vocals, basslines and 808s.
- Full Stack is designed for chords and other stacked notes.
MG-Mini is available as both a VST3 plugin and standalone application, runs on Windows 10 or later (64-bit), and is currently at version 1.1.0. The plugin is deliberately focused on MIDI capture rather than editing or composition features, leaving those tasks to the DAW.
MG-Mini is free permanently for Never Found newsletter members, with no activation required and no internet connection needed to use the plugin.
