Midiator's Setlists screen: three songs, each laid out on the controller's six footswitches with a sound for every part.

10 min

to set up a whole week's setlist.

Every part

gets its own sound. No more small, medium, large.

Zero code

Know your presets. Midiator does the MIDI.

Try it

Build a song. Stomp a switch.

Name it, give each part a sound, send it to the board.

Features

Everything for the set. Nothing extra.

One song, one bank.

Lay out each song on your footswitches, part by part, exactly like the hardware.

A song card: Intro, Verse, Chorus, Bridge and Outro on switches A to E, Tap tempo on F.

Your sounds, once.

Add the presets already saved on your pedals. Every song picks from them.

My presets: BigSky Big hall 4A, Plate 1B; TimeLine Dotted 8th 12B.

See it before it's sent.

Every change, switch by switch. Presets you made yourself are never touched.

The send review: each switch marked New, Updated or Not touched.

Tempo built in.

A BPM per song, plus a Tap or −1 / +1 switch.

Already programmed?

Midiator reads your Morningstar, or listens to any controller, and finds your presets.

FAQ

Good to know.

Will it change the presets on my pedals?

No. Midiator only calls presets up. It never saves anything to a pedal. On your controller it only writes to empty presets or ones it made itself.

What do I need?

A Mac, a MIDI controller and MIDI pedals. Midiator programs Morningstar and Pirate MIDI controllers over USB. For Quad Cortex, HX Stomp, Boss, RJM and others it gives you a setup sheet to copy in.

Can I reuse the same banks every week?

Yes. Midiator remembers what it wrote, updates only what changed and leaves your own presets alone.

Is there AI in it?

Not in the main app: it's exact MIDI maths. An optional AI helper lives in Labs and is still a work in progress.

Why does my Mac ask before opening it?

Midiator isn't registered with Apple yet. The first time, right-click it in Applications and choose Open (or System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway). After that it opens normally and updates itself.

Windows?

Mac first. Windows is on the list.
