CoyoteMIDI - A system utility for translating MIDI to key strokes
2021-05-29T00:16:21+00:00
Hi all,
I've been playing a minor role within a small team of developers who are looking to expand the capabilities of MIDI devices.
This includes a highly customizable way of translating MIDI into keystrokes, mouse actions, macros or scripts.
If you're like us, you probably have a MIDI controller or two with an abundance of controls on it that either don't get used very often, or that you'd like to use for applications outside of your DAW. This is what inspired CoyoteMIDI.
Some example use-cases from our current users:
- Turning your MIDI keyboard into a bank of hotkeys when your DAW is not running
- Using a sustain pedal as a mouse click to alleviate hand/finger pain, or to activate/deactivate a microphone in voice-chat
- Using a MIDI fader controller (like a Korg NanoKontrol) for DAW commands such as zooming, scrolling, increasing the number of CC lanes visible, track height, etc
- Using a launchpad or MIDI pad device for keyboard shortcuts and macros (like a streamdeck)
- Using CoyoteMIDI to expand the capabilities of TouchOSC for a more capable Touchscreen input device
Or use it for leisure:
- Control your Netflix volume with a mod wheel
- Use your sustain pedal as an accelerator in car racing games!
- Using MIDI keys to skip to next track in Spotify
In addition to the MIDI translation engine, CoyoteMIDI also features an inbuilt retrospective MIDI recorder , allowing you to capture musical ideas without even opening your DAW.
= BETA TESTERS WANTED =
The is still in its infancy but we're looking for some users who'd like to give CoyoteMIDI a try and share their thoughts about it with us. Alternatively, you could just download it and never speak to us, and that's fine too!
Yep, toootally fine. Not upsetting at all.
Anyway, we've got a dedicated Discord server up and running for providing feedback or seeking support, or feel free to use the contact form on the website, or reply directly to this thread.
CoyoteMIDI is still relatively early in its development, so it's constantly being improved, but we're excited to see how people use it and hearing all about it!
The current BETA is representative of what will be the Free version of CoyoteMIDI, and does not support triggering scripts at this time. More details about that and other advanced features will surface over time.
So, if you have any unused pads, faders, knobs, or keys, it's time to wipe off the dust and put them to good use!

We've added support for OSC input in our latest beta version. If you'd like to try it out, just enable 'Beta updates' in the general settings and allow the app to update like normal.
You can configure the OSC ports in the OSC tab on the settings page, and translations can automatically detect OSC when recording an input.
