Open up new horizons in music creation with Dodo MIDI – a unique VST plugin from Dodo Bird. This instrument transforms your voice or any other audio signal into a full-fledged MIDI controller. Dodo MIDI analyzes the incoming sound (singing, instrument) and generates MIDI messages, allowing precise control over the pitch and volume of any connected synthesizer or sampler in your DAW.
An Innovative Bridge Between Sound and MIDI
Unlike many other “audio-to-MIDI” solutions, Dodo MIDI is designed as a professional tool for live performances and studio work. It stands out for its exceptional efficiency, low latency, and high accuracy, making it a valuable asset for musicians, producers, and sound designers.
Key Features of Dodo MIDI
The plugin boasts a range of impressive features:
- Minimal Latency: Reaction to the input signal is almost instantaneous, which is critical for using the plugin as a live instrument.
- High Recognition Accuracy: Dodo MIDI accurately transmits performance elements like legato, slides, and articulation to MIDI, preserving the expressiveness of your original signal.
- Flexibility: Works effectively with various audio sources – from vocals to wind instruments and guitars.
- Professional Tool: A reliable solution for serious work.
Areas of Application
Dodo MIDI opens up new possibilities:
- On Stage: Control synthesizers and samplers with your voice or instrument during live performances.
- In the Studio: Quickly convert vocal or instrumental ideas into MIDI tracks.
- For Sound Design: Experiment, using unique audio sources to control synthesizers.
Compatibility and Important Nuances
The Dodo MIDI plugin is available in VST format for 64-bit Windows (Win64) and macOS (OSX).
Please note the following:
- In Cubase, Dodo MIDI does not currently control the synthesizer’s volume. For full volume control, it is recommended to use other DAWs, such as Reaper. Note recognition works correctly.
- For best results, use a high-quality microphone/input and a clean audio signal without unnecessary noise.
Summary
Dodo MIDI is a powerful, precise, and flexible tool. It transforms your acoustic performance into accurate MIDI data, providing unique control and freedom of creative expression. If you aim to expand your musical capabilities and are looking for innovative tools, Dodo MIDI will be an excellent choice.
