No key, no activation, no account, and it never needs the internet. It listens without changing the sound and adds no latency.

Deliberately small: no note editing, no scale snapping, no chord names, no preview synth. Your DAW already does that.

MG-Mini is not code signed, so Windows may warn on first run: choose More info, then Run anyway. Both checksums are published instead, so you can prove the file arrived intact — the archive you download, and the installer inside it. The archive also ships a SHA256.txt carrying the second one.
