The most-discussed AI music tools generate audio, not MIDI. This distinction matters for producers who want editable notes, flexible instruments, and DAW-native arrangement control.
Create finished tracks that are useful as references, but difficult to reshape at the musical data level.
Examples: Suno, Udio, Soundraw, Mubert
Produce raw musical data you can edit, arrange, voice, and route through your own instruments.
Examples: MIDI Agent, AIVA, Magenta Studio
No other tool combines DAW plugin integration, genuine LLM-powered generation, and flexible pricing.
Connect your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, or xAI API keys—or use local LLMs through Ollama. No other DAW plugin offers this flexibility.
The only tools using GPT-class language models for MIDI are web-based. MIDI Agent brings LLM power directly into your DAW workflow.
$49 one-time for the plugin with BYOK included, plus an optional $20/month Pro tier for managed API access. Competitors force ongoing subscriptions: Hookpad Aria costs $22.98/month, AIVA Pro costs €33/month.
Convert audio samples to MIDI directly in the plugin. Only shared with Suno at 10 credits per extraction on their $30/month plan.
Hear from music producers who use MIDI Agent in their creative workflow.
Electronic Music Producer
"I've been thoroughly enjoying MIDI Agent. The interface is incredibly user-friendly, and it keeps getting better with each new update. It understands exactly what I want and helps me quickly create fresh chord progressions and melodies. I absolutely love this plugin."
Film & Television Music Producer
"I love your plugin. I've already made 3 songs from ideas started with this great AI tool. Looking forward to see how others use it."
Hip Hop Producer
"Best money I've spent on a music vst... a dope way of getting out of beat block."
Join thousands of producers using a DAW plugin that brings LLM-powered MIDI generation directly into their creative process.
MIDI Agent turns natural-language prompts into MIDI data you can keep editing. Instead of leaving your session to copy ideas from a browser tool, you generate, audition, and refine MIDI close to the track you are producing.
Step 1
Ask for a melody, chord progression, bassline, rhythm pattern, or continuation using plain language. Add key, tempo, genre, instruments, or emotional direction when you want tighter control.
Step 2
The plugin sends your prompt to the AI provider you choose and returns MIDI notes that can be assigned to any instrument, edited in your piano roll, or regenerated with a more specific prompt.
Step 3
Move notes, change velocity, swap instruments, adjust timing, and combine generated parts with your own performance. MIDI Agent gives you starting material, not a locked audio file.
Use MIDI Agent for fast track starters, targeted musical parts, and variations on ideas you already have.
Create lead lines, hooks, countermelodies, and motif ideas in a chosen key, scale, or style.
Generate harmonic beds for pop, house, lo-fi, film scoring, jazz, ambient, and other production workflows.
Ask for groove ideas that match a chord progression, tempo, genre, or existing MIDI part.
Extend an idea, generate alternate takes, or turn a short phrase into a more complete arrangement.
Browser generators can be useful for one-off ideas. MIDI Agent is designed for the moment when you are already producing and need an editable part that fits the session.
See the workflow featuresUse your existing tempo, key, arrangement idea, or imported MIDI as the basis for a generation.
Create MIDI notes for a focused part instead of committing to a finished audio render.
Send the MIDI to the synth, sampler, piano, drum rack, or orchestral library you already use.
Edit, duplicate, transpose, humanize, or regenerate until the part supports the song.
The strongest prompts combine musical role, genre, key, tempo, and intent. Start broad, then regenerate with more detail when you hear the direction you want.
Melody prompt
"Create a melancholic synthwave lead melody in A minor at 92 BPM with long notes and a subtle rising phrase at the end."
Chord prompt
"Generate an emotional four-chord progression for a cinematic piano cue in D minor, with inversions that feel smooth and playable."
Bassline prompt
"Write a deep house bassline that supports this chord progression, stays sparse in the first bar, then adds syncopation."
Variation prompt
"Create three variations of this MIDI phrase: one simpler, one more energetic, and one with a call-and-response ending."
A browser MIDI generator is convenient when you want a quick sketch. A plugin is the better fit when the idea needs to become part of a real production session.
MIDI Agent keeps text-to-MIDI generation next to your instruments, arrangement, and editing tools. You still get AI-generated ideas, but the output is immediately ready for the workflow where producers make decisions.
Generate ideas while listening to the track, then place the MIDI where it belongs in the arrangement.
Generated MIDI can drive your favorite synths, samplers, drum racks, and scoring libraries instead of being tied to a web preview sound.
Use managed MIDI Agent Pro access, bring your own API keys, or connect local LLMs when your workflow calls for more control.
Quick answers to common questions about MIDI Agent.
An AI MIDI generator is software that uses artificial intelligence to create MIDI data: the digital instructions that tell instruments what notes to play. MIDI Agent uses Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Claude to generate melodies, chord progressions, and full compositions from natural language descriptions.
Yes, AI can generate MIDI files. MIDI Agent creates MIDI data directly in your DAW using AI models. You can describe the music you want in plain language, and the AI generates corresponding MIDI that you can edit, assign to any instrument, and use in your productions.
MIDI Agent is the leading AI MIDI generator for DAW integration. It's the only AI MIDI generator available as a VST plugin that combines true LLM-powered generation with bring-your-own-key (BYOK) flexibility and local LLM support. Unlike web-based tools, MIDI Agent works directly in your DAW workflow.
MIDI Agent can work offline when using local LLMs through Ollama or LM Studio. For cloud-based AI providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini, an internet connection is required.
MIDI Agent lets you describe a musical idea in plain language, choose the relevant context in your DAW, and generate editable MIDI that can be assigned to any instrument, edited in the piano roll, or regenerated with a more specific prompt.
MIDI Agent can generate melodies, chord progressions, basslines, rhythm patterns, variations, and continuations. The output is MIDI data, so you can change notes, timing, velocity, key, tempo, and instruments inside your DAW.
Browser MIDI generators are useful for quick sketches, but MIDI Agent is built for producers who want AI MIDI generation inside their DAW session. The plugin keeps prompts, generated MIDI, editing, and arrangement work close to the track you are producing.
