MIDY is a browser-based MIDI generator for producers and songwriters who want quick melodic material to bring into a digital audio workstation. Its free Quick Generate engine creates melodies, chord progressions and arpeggios from selectable settings without an account or usage limits. AI Compose accepts natural-language descriptions and returns three melody takes per generation. The piano-roll view provides playback and a way to inspect results before downloading MIDI.

The workflow is focused on generation and export rather than editing inside MIDY. Users can choose key, mood, instrument, tempo and length, and the tool offers seven mood/scale modes. Downloads are standard .mid files with melody and chord tracks, designed for import into Ableton Live, FL Studio, Logic Pro, Cubase, GarageBand, Reaper, Pro Tools, Studio One or Bitwig. MIDY runs in a web browser; it does not offer a standalone app or VST/AU plugin. That makes it a fit for producers comfortable moving generated material into a DAW, less so for anyone seeking a plugin-based composition workflow or advanced chord-progression input.

Paid AI Compose options use either one-time credit packs or a monthly plan. Starter costs €2.99 one-time for 50 generations, Creator costs €9.99 one-time for 180, and Studio costs €24.99 one-time for 600; each includes three melody takes per generation, with credits that never expire. MIDY Pro is €6.99 per month for 150 generations each month, with unused credits rolling over up to 300 and cancellation available anytime. Paid outputs are described as ad-free and royalty-free, and generated MIDI is described as royalty-free for personal and commercial projects. Choose MIDY for inexpensive, quick MIDI ideas; look elsewhere if detailed editing or a dedicated DAW plugin is essential.

MIDY pros and cons

  • Where it wins
    • Free Quick Generate creates melodies, chords and arpeggios without usage limits.
    • AI Compose returns three melody takes per generation from natural-language prompts.
    • Exports separate melody and chord tracks as standard MIDI for DAW import.
  • Where it doesn't
    • Web-only, with no standalone app or VST/AU plugin.
    • No chord progression input; chord and scale awareness is basic.
    • AI Compose uses finite credits, except for free Quick Generate.
