CO2 MIDI Launcher allows you to put applications, documents, folders, scripts and more under MIDI program change control. Use your MIDI controller to load songs for your music application, bring up lyrics, open folders, run AppleScripts and more!

The program is simple and easy to use. Just a single list shows you your files and program changes. You can assign up to 128 program changes per document. In addition to the list, there is a pop out drawer in which you can store notes about your list.

You can restrict incoming MIDI by channel and port so it’s possible to make only one MIDI controller be the master to launch documents and have another MIDI controller be the one that you play into a sequencer for example.

As mentioned before, CO2 MIDI Launcher entries can be files, folders, applications, scripts and even other CO2 documents. So a program change could load another list into CO2 giving you even more options!

If a file is not assigned to an entry in the list, the program change is ignored. So you can have the first 10 programs for example launch your applications and the second set of 10 play sounds, the third set of 10 launch other documents etc.
