"MIDI Control is now free; the development team has shifted focus to converting live audio into MIDI notes -- please check out our other app, Audio MIDI Connect. There are YouTube demos for this, to see what it's about.

This app is a basic interface for Apple Core MIDI, to send notes to synthesizer apps and external sequencers and synthesizers. When it was first introduced, there were very few Core MIDI apps; now, there are tons of them, many of which are very good.
The app also includes a very simple synthesizer engine; in the past year, tons of these have been released too (Animoog! Alchemy! Lots of good ones!).
The app currently only supports Core MIDI; we hope to add DSMIDI WiFi support in the next few months.
There are three main types of control surfaces.
★Piano Keyboard: unlike a conventional keyboard, which has 88 keys, the app keyboard spans the entire range of MIDI notes possible, with 128 keys total, with adjustable width. The keyboard emulates velocity sensitive behavior. Each piano keyboard transmits on its own MIDI channel; for the dual keyboard configurations, you can select different channels to play two different instruments simultaneously.
★Drum Pads: Pads also emulate velocity sensitivity, and pad assignments can be reconfigured.
★Theremin: the app provides a method to generate a continuous range of pitch, through either the internal synthesizer, or with an appropriate MIDI patch.
❖Connecting WiFi MIDI❖
The app can connect to external MIDI devices, using WiFi and the Audio MIDI Setup application available on Mac OSX. Low latency connections can be made with computer-to-computer WiFi networks. Connecting WiFi MIDI to PCs can also be done; there are a few drivers available for this.
❖Connecting USB MIDI❖
MIDI equipment can also be connected through the Apple camera connection kit USB adapter."
