In this video I put Prism by Aurally Sound head-to-head with the usual audio-to-MIDI options, and it honestly wrecked the competition in the ways that matter when you’re trying to finish music fast. I’m talking about taking real audio—melodies, chords, and musical phrases—and turning that into usable MIDI without the “cool demo, unusable result” vibe you get from a lot of tools in this category. I walk through where Prism fits in a modern production workflow, especially if you’re constantly pulling ideas from vocals, guitar, synth lines, or samples and you want to get to arranging, sound design, and mixing quicker. I also cover the big update: Prism v1.1 now supports DAWs that don’t have ARA. That means you can run it in Logic on Apple Silicon without jumping through Rosetta, and you can use it in other DAWs like Ableton too. The main takeaway is simple: if you’re doing music production tech in 2026, audio-to-MIDI isn’t a novelty anymore—it’s a workflow multiplier, and Prism is one of the few tools I’ve tested that feels built for producers, not just engineers.
