Works great with digital pianos ★★★★★
If you own a digital piano and want to turn it into a “player piano” this simple MIDI app does the trick. I own a Yamaha P-85 and while it comes with a decent collection of built-in demo songs, I’ve always wanted to add more. Well, this app accomplishes just that. Connect your Mac via USB MIDI cable and enjoy! Thanks MethodRed!
Does what it’s supposed to do ★★★★★
MIDIPlayer X plays midi files – ‘is that it?’ I hear you say. Well, ‘Yes’. However, it does it well, it does it every time and, if like me you have thousands of music files in midi format which Apple has decided is no longer relevant (who do they think they are?), this little App fills a very large hole in OS X. I like the fact that ther are some minor adjustments you can make to the midi whilst listening to it (speed up/down and display in beats/seconds). I’ve tried a plethora of midi apps trying to find one that works every time, this is it!!! Recommended.

Great! ★★★★★
This is a terrific bit of software! Once upon a time, MIDI playback was built into Preview. For some reason, Apple decided to drop the ball. Well, MethodRed has picked it up and run with it. Glad to find a lightweight solution—much better than opening Logic every time I want to preview a .mid file.

Best $1.99 MIDI file player in the APP store ★★★★★
Simply the best $1.99 MIDI file player in the App Store. No other app under $14.99 lets you create a MIDI playlist, trigger VST virtual inputs, and save Type 0 files as channel separated Type 1 files.
Would love to see a few more features added to a Pro version in the furure:
1) When saving, remove files that were muted prior to saving. (FYI, anything else you change gets saved in the newly saved file)
2) Give users an option to save either type 1 filesor type 0 MIDI files. Currently, all files become type 1
3) Manually type in which bar to start playback from
4) Change keyGreat job folks!!!
KISS – Great 🙂 ★★★★★
I like the Keep-it-simple-and-stupid method great app 🙂
Nice update for muting and transportation 🙂
please support also *.midi (not only *.mid) files
*thx*
