VERSION 2.0 ยท OUT NOW

The biggest Midi2Macro update yet

Profiles with per-app switching, CC signal support, sound effects and more. Everything you asked for - without losing the one-minute setup you love.

Profiles

Build multiple macro layouts on one controller and switch profiles with a single pad. One device, every workflow.

Per-App Profiles

Midi2Macro detects your active app and loads the right profile automatically - OBS, Premiere, your DAW, all hands-free.

Macro Sequences

Create complex sequences of actions, trigger them with a single key press on your keyboard or MIDI controller.

Faders, Knobs & Pedals

Full MIDI CC support unlocks expression pedals, foot switches, faders and mod wheels as macro triggers and OBS volume control.

Sound Effects & Audio

Assign any pad to play a sound effect or music clip - perfect for streamers, podcasters and live shows.

Launch With Parameters

Open an app with a specific file or project in one press. A row of pads becomes a row of ready-to-go projects.

PER-APP PROFILES

Profiles that switch themselves

Tell a profile which apps it belongs to and Midi2Macro auto-activates it the moment that app gains focus, then switches back when you leave. Set it once for OBS, Premiere, your DAW or anything else you run.

MACRO SEQUENCES

One key press, a whole sequence

Chain as many actions as you like into a single macro - switch an OBS scene, wait for the transition, then fire a keyboard shortcut - all triggered by one note or CC signal on your MIDI controller.

HOW IT WORKS

MIDI controller to macro pad in under a minute

No drivers to install. No scripts to write. Connect your MIDI controller, assign an action, and you're done.

1

Connect Your Controller

Plug in any MIDI controller - keyboard, pad, knob bank, or expression pedal. Midi2Macro detects it automatically, no drivers needed.

2

Press a Key, Pick an Action

Hit any pad or key. A simple menu lets you assign a keyboard shortcut, app launch, OBS scene switch, or more. Takes about ten seconds.

3

You're Done

Every time you hit that pad, your action fires instantly. Set it once, use it forever. Works alongside your DAW and other software without conflicts.

Yes. Midi2Macro is available for both Windows and MacOS ๐Ÿ˜Š

Midi2Macro is digitally signed, so Windows can confirm the installer really came from us and has not been tampered with. Brand new releases can still show a SmartScreen warning for a while, because Microsoft builds up trust for a file based on how many people have downloaded it. That fades as more people install each release.
