Midilo is a MIDI-first live looper for musicians who want to shape patterns as they perform. Capture a phrase, keep it moving, and transform it while it plays. Slice a loop, pitch the active slice, change its timing and velocity, or add playheads that echo, reverse, delay, transpose, and send notes to different MIDI channels. Build ideas across loop slots, connect them in Graph mode, and combine MIDI with layered Audio Freeze recordings. When a variation feels right, record your performance into a new slot or use Bake to commit your edits and playheads to the current loop. Built for hardware synths, MIDI controllers, and live improvisation, Midilo turns small musical ideas into evolving performances.
