Description
MIDITrail is a MIDI player which provides 3D visualization of MIDI data sets.
You can enjoy not only listening but also viewing.
MIDITrail supports Standard MIDI File (format 0/1), CoreMIDI, and multiple MIDI ports.
MIDITrail is available for Windows, macOS and iOS.
Optional feature: You can enjoy the VR(virtual reality) experience using cheap VR glasses for smartphones and the game controller for iPhone.
Requirements: iOS 12.0 or later
(1) Preparing MIDI files
You have to transfer MIDI files to your iOS device from Mac or PC.
Connect your iOS device to Mac or PC, and launch iTunes.
Then you can transfer MIDI files using 'File Sharing'.
Or you can add MIDI files to MIDITrail using Files App of iOS.
(2) Preparing Sound module
You can use sound module which supports Core MIDI. And you can use internal wavetable synthesizer.
There are three ways as shown below:
The first way is to connect MIDI interface device and external sound module. (e.g. iRig MIDI, i-MX1, etc.)
The second way is to use Synth App which supports 'Virtual MIDI Port' and 'Background Mode'. (e.g. KQ Sampei, bs-16i, Sound Canvas for iOS, etc.)
The third way is to use the internal wavetable synthesizer. You have to transfer the wavetable file (DLS/SF2) to your iOS device in advance.

Ratings and Reviews
One thing...
It’s good but can you add a 2d version of the keyboard to like the pc versions?
Unique, brilliant, indispensable
I use this all the time, and can't thank the developer enough for making it (and making it free). The rain view in particular is by far the best way to monitor multichannel MIDI visually, and is a pleasure just to watch in its own right, as well as being a wonderful tool for use with generative apps where you want to see what notes are actually being produced in real time. The one thing it was missing was split-screen operation so it could be used side-by-side with Noatikl/Wotja – and now it can. Absolutely wonderful.
You can get sound, you need to go into settings first
Go into settings, midi out device, port a and select Internal Wavetable Synthesizer. That worked on my iPad. It’s a bit plinky plonky but you do then get to hear the music.
It’s a very solid midi visualiser particularly for the price (free) so I hope the above prevents a few too hasty dismissals of this app. 🤞
Cheers!
