Spotify

Control spotify volume, skip tracks, play/pause, and add the current playing track to favourites. All with your midi device through Midi Mixer.

This will only work with a spotify premium account

This will also not play spotify music directly. It is made to control the spotify app. The app is still needed to be running/playing music.
