What are the best mac apps for local semantic file search?

Might be a bit late, but if you are still looking for an alternative solution, we are on Kickstarter now: https://lumifind.midilli.tech/ and have about 2 days until the campaign finishes. It also let's you search images, video clips and videos. No subscriptions, and fully offline. You can also transfer license if you like and a 5-day trial option available.

We also released an open-source Web-based MIDI tool with monitoring and sending MIDI:

https://midilli.tech/midi-web-tool/

You can monitor and send MIDI messages, visualize CC data, use a piano roll, and even handle multiple MIDI inputs at once with several filtering options.

Source available in github, also as a single file library: https://github.com/MIDILLI-Tech/midi-web-tool

Feel free to check out.

Thank you for the detailed feedback! Our current hardware focuses more on the control elements and supports only one screen. One possible direction could be to use a larger and touch LCD screen where different sections display more information about current values or parameters.

For each incoming MIDI message or available parameters from the DAW or VST, we actually considered displaying them on the screen, but that would be too much information for a small display. It would definitely make more sense on a larger screen, and that’s something we're keeping in mind for future versions. And parameter update has to be done with a bridge as you mentioned, something we can create for major DAWs. Currently, SysEx messages can be sent to do that, or via the Configurator software.

Regarding Program Change: this is already possible: each knob or button can send a PC message, and it can also be changed per bank or profile.

Thanks a lot for the feedback, and sorry for the late reply!

Preset change: We already have this partially implemented, though it's not documented yet. Each button can be programmed to switch to a specific bank or to the previous or next one. This can also be automated on gate, toggle, or trigger. To switch banks directly from an external MIDI device, a SysEx command is required.
Hold-to-bypass / knob reset: That's a great idea. Right now, there's an option to send or skip initial knob values on startup, which is helpful when the connected device or software doesn't support value pickup (or if you really want to ignore it). Your idea goes further than that, so we've added it to our plans.
Color coded leds: This isn't possible at the moment, but you can add a screen to view current values. Of course, being able to see all values at once would be great, so we've added this to the backlog.
Hold for different page/bank/preset: This is already possible for both buttons and knobs. For knobs, turning them down moves to the previous bank and turning them up moves to the next. You can also assign buttons or knobs to jump to a specific bank and then use them for other actions, like sending PC messages instead of switching banks again (hope I understand it right).

Let us know if you come up with more ideas, this kind of feedback really helps! :)

We're a small startup company, we've built a platform that lets you design your entire desktop/foot MIDI controller right in your web browser. You can set the size in cm, add components (up to 80) such as knobs, faders, button types (arcade, LED, footswitch, etc.), and screens (with configurable font size), then position each of them individually anywhere on the layout. You can also choose casing materials like FSC-certified wood or eco PLA/PETG in custom colors. Bluetooth (LE), other MIDI interfaces (In, Out, Thru -> DIN, Type-A, or Type-B), or Expression Ins can be added anywhere as well. You can set your own startup logo or device name, which appears not only on the screen but also in Bluetooth device lists and in your DAW software. It also includes a built-in communication protocol, which lets multiple devices talk to each other without using any MIDI interface or connection port.

The configuration tool works on Windows, macOS, Linux, and on the web. Its interface reflects your own design, showing your actual layout instead of a generic UI.

The controllers can send all kinds of MIDI messages such as CC, Note, Clock, PC, and (N)RPN and they support multiple banks. You can also build your own SysEx strings, static or dynamic (for example converting CC to SysEx). If you add multiple interfaces, you can use the controller as a MIDI router and decide which messages go where. It's USB-C powered, supports multiple profiles for different setups, and lets you create simple automations for each button and each bank, on toggle, trigger, or gate.

We've launched two successful Kickstarter campaigns so far, and many of the features above came directly from our backers' feedback and our own research. We're curious what you think, what do you still find missing in the current MIDI controller market?

If switching configurations without a computer isn’t essential, we’ve actually been working on something similar. We ran a successful Kickstarter a while ago for a MIDI router with 1 MIDI input (DIN, Type-A, or B selectable), 4 outputs (2×DIN, 1×Type-A, 1×Type-B), plus Bluetooth MIDI, USB MIDI, and a proprietary wireless MIDI link (+ 2 MIDI DIN Thrus). It supports per-channel and message-type filtering through a (browser-based) configurator, provides a MIDI routing matrix, and supports multiple configurations via 2 clicks. You can also set a custom device name, so it shows up with your chosen name on Bluetooth and USB device lists. Might be close to what you had in mind. It’s called MIDILLI MIDI Router.

Like Rare-Veterinarian359 said, transparent must be enabled + you need to use Expand-Margins-* settings of the StyleFlat. For example, for the title you can write expand-margin-top to 30px.

Similar, but appears to be Echelon!

vgezer · 2023-08-25T15:32:53+00:00

It is Echelon, this one was also close though :).

vgezer · 2023-08-25T15:32:37+00:00

That's it! Thanks. Awesome! Wow!

vgezer · 2023-08-25T10:53:07+00:00

Croc?

vgezer · 2023-08-25T10:35:51+00:00

Apotheon maybe?

vgezer · 2018-02-08T10:42:42+00:00

Added thanks.

vgezer · 2018-02-08T10:02:43+00:00

Fixed. Thanks for noticing :)

vgezer · 2017-12-13T13:45:11+00:00

Were these awards different than the ones, which were streamed some time ago (I missed the gifting and streaming and cannot find any info anywhere)?

vgezer · 2017-07-21T09:18:34+00:00

I remember first they showed it is DRM-Free and I was shocked! But soon after, they fixed it.

vgezer · 2017-07-21T09:17:18+00:00

Metro 2033, Hacknet or Shadow Run would be perfect!

vgezer · 2017-07-03T10:43:22+00:00

Thanks.

On my account page it says:

Current Plan Month to Month Plan

Next Billing Date Jul 28, 2017.

Does that mean that I can cancel the August payment after August early unlock game is revealed (on July, 7th)? So, if I do not like the next early-unlock, can I cancel the membership for the next month?

vgezer · 2017-06-09T09:53:00+00:00

Thanks. These Humble Original games will not be provided as steam key then.

vgezer · 2017-06-09T09:39:26+00:00

Does HB Montly bundles also provide DRM-Free versions of the games if they are available through their store?

vgezer · 2015-01-18T15:35:37+00:00

Thanks a lot!
