FAQ

How does the 30-minute free trial work?

The download is instant. Then, on the first login inside the app, we create a full 30-minute trial session. The timer starts at that moment, not at download time.

Do I need a credit card to start the trial?

No. The download is direct and the trial starts on the first sign-in inside the app. The license purchase only comes after the trial.

Which platform is Guitar to MIDI available on?

For now, Guitar to MIDI is available on Windows. The displayed plans allow 1 active session per user.

How do I get the lowest latency?

On Windows, use an ASIO driver: the one provided by your audio interface, or ASIO4ALL / FlexASIO as a fallback. Standard Windows drivers (WASAPI, DirectSound) add noticeable latency in real time. Then lower the buffer size as far as your machine allows without crackling.

Can I use Guitar to MIDI commercially?

Yes, for personal or professional use, including commercial use and public performances, within the limits of your subscribed plan.

Is there a subscription to manage?

No. The license is a one-time payment: nothing renews and there is nothing to cancel.
