›What is MIDI Agent?
MIDI Agent is an AI-powered VST3, AU, AAX, and standalone plugin for music producers and composers. It generates MIDI from natural-language prompts, converts audio into MIDI, and extends or remixes existing musical ideas. Users can change notes, instruments, rhythms, and arrangements inside their production software.
