MIDI2LR Description
If you need to edit entire collections of photos, then there is a good chance that you intend to use an advanced software application, such as Lightroom 6, Corel Draw or Photoshop, for instance. MIDI2LR is an interesting application that enables you to process and edit pictures in Lightroom 6 using your favorite MIDI device.
As you probably guessed, before you can get to the fun part, you should take the time and map the controllers correctly. You will be happy to learn that you can map as many controllers are you want and save them, so you can jump right into the action next time you require to tweak your photo albums.
It is important to note that while you can do the editing within Lightroom’s environment, do not forget to save the key mappings in the application. Rest assured that all modifications you perform in the dedicated window of the app are automatically saved in Lightroom as well.
The advantage of using knobs instead of the mouse and keyboard is that you have a utensil that enables you to perform more refined tweaking. For instance, increasing the contrast or the expose in a photo via cranking can help you get the desired effect faster, as you no longer have to worry about the parameters shooting up.
In spite of the fact that the application is in its early stage and comes with several known bugs, the truth is that the idea behind it is quite interesting. Therefore, if you are looking for a solution to make processing hundreds or thousands of images more fun or engaging, then perhaps MIDI2LR can come in handy.
