Gliff is a MIDI effect that translates incoming MIDI notes into guitar-aware chord information and clean polyphonic MIDI output. It is not an audio-to-MIDI converter; instead, it takes MIDI from a keyboard, MIDI guitar, DAW clip, or the on-screen fretboard and names the chord in real time, including slash chords, inversions, and partial matches. You can view the harmony as both a fretboard shape and a piano view, click the fretboard to audition voicings, and drag a one-bar MIDI clip directly into your DAW timeline. Built-in tunings include standard, drop, DADGAD, open, ukulele, custom tunings, and capo modeling. It ships as VST3 and AU for macOS, VST3 for Windows, and a Max for Live device for Ableton Suite. Gliff suits hobby producers sketching guitar-like parts, guitarists using MIDI hardware, and keyboardists who want fretboard logic inside FL Studio, Ableton, or Logic without leaving the session.
