Build your custom controller once, set up routing once, and have it travel with your session from then on. Send MIDI to other plugins in your host, and route it onward to wherever vour host can reach.

Control MIDI-enabled software and gear on iPhone, iPad, Mac with a pro-grade controller – vast library, robust performance, full customization.
MIDI Designer Pro X (MDPx) is the culmination of over a decade of continuous improvements.
In 2012, Confusion Studios launched MIDI Designer Pro, which they relaunched in 2016 as MIDI Designer Pro 2. MDP2 was the first and only professional-grade MIDI controller built natively for iOS, earning widespread critical acclaim. Since launch, Confusion Studios have released over 80 updates, greatly expanding features and functionality.
Their library of user-created content now covers over 300 MIDI targets covering a vast array of music-making gear and software. In 2024, Confusion Studios take a significant leap forward with MDPx. This release elevates the user experience to new heights on iPad and Mac — including a new, expressive theme called “Spaceship” — while advancing usability massively for iPhone users.
A new subscription model — Premium — allows even more users to use the App in their music-making and discover MIDI Designer for themselves.
