Marla Mini Humanizer - MIDI Humanization For macOS

Marla Audio has released Mini Humanizer, an AU/VST3 tool for macOS that adds per-note timing and velocity variation to existing MIDI clips, then exports a new humanized MIDI file back to your DAW. It uses a file-in/file-out workflow, so you are not dealing with MIDI routing or recording passes.

Drop a MIDI clip into the plugin, set timing and velocity ranges, audition, then drag the result back into your session. Presets cover tighter to looser feels, and you can save your own. If you like to see just how much human feel is in numbers, factory options include Session Pro (-5/+3 ms, -2/+3 vel), Pocket Player (-10/+6 ms, -3/+5 vel), Loose Player (-18/+22 ms, -6/+8 vel), and Chaos Player (-28/+33 ms, -8/+12 vel).

• Humanization: Adjustable per-note timing and velocity ranges
• Workflow: Drop a MIDI file in, audition, drag the humanized clip back to the DAW
• Presets: Built-in feels plus user preset saving
• Formats: AU and VST3 on macOS 14+ (Apple Silicon and Intel)
• Demo: Free demo with 1 humanized MIDI export; license unlocks unlimited export, one active Mac at a time
• Scope: Works with drums, bass, keys, and melodic parts
• Roadmap: Windows planned

Compared with real-time humanizer MIDI FX that randomize on input, this is clip-based and commit-focused. If you want to bake feel into parts for arrangement, collaboration, or archiving, the drag-and-drop export makes it quick. Marla also offers Real Grooves for live-played grooves; Mini Humanizer shapes what you have already written, so the two can be used together.

Price: $39 lifetime license. Free demo available.
