MIDI Memos: Recorder + Player

MIDI Memos is the fastest way to capture a musical idea on your iPhone or iPad.

One button, one tap, you're recording. Play your MIDI keyboard or tap the built-in on-screen piano. Tap stop. You've got a clean Standard MIDI File ready to share to GarageBand, Logic, Ableton, Cubase, or any DAW.

That's it. No setup, no tracks, no menus to navigate.

WHAT IT DOES • Records MIDI from any Bluetooth or USB-C MIDI keyboard, controller, or pad • Built-in on-screen piano keyboard for moments when no hardware is around • Plays back every take through a high-quality piano so you can audition immediately • Optional metronome click during recording • Adjustable tempo (40–240 BPM), embedded in every exported file so it imports at the right tempo • Share .mid files instantly via AirDrop, Files, Mail, Messages, or directly to any DAW • Background recording survives the screen lock so you can focus on playing • Take library with favorites, search, and a 30-day trash so accidental deletes are recoverable • Universal — works on iPhone and iPad • No accounts, no tracking, no ads

WHO IT'S FOR • Songwriters who want to capture a melody before it slips away • Producers who need a quick MIDI sketchpad away from the studio • Pianists and keyboardists practicing on a digital piano who want to log a take • Teachers and students who want a no-friction way to record an exercise • Anyone who has ever thought "I had an idea, but by the time I opened my DAW it was gone"

WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most DAWs are powerful and complex. MIDI Memos is the opposite — a single-purpose utility that does one thing well. There is no project to create, no track to arm, no preset to pick. The big red button is the entire interface.

PRIVACY MIDI Memos doesn't collect, transmit, or share any data. Your recordings live on your device. There are no accounts, no analytics, and no tracking.

REQUIREMENTS • iOS 18 or later • iPhone or iPad • A MIDI keyboard via Bluetooth or USB is recommended; on-screen keyboard works too
