Editor's Overview

Timidity AE is a multimedia application developed by F-Droid Open Source, packaged as a single Android APK of version 3.0 weighing in at 13.15 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

Install Checklist

  1. Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
  2. File size is a light 13.15 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
  3. This build is signed by "F-Droid Open Source" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
  4. After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
  5. We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

* Multi-track mixer with support for per-track instrument and volume adjustment (only available for MIDI and MOD files)
* Tempo, pitch, voice, and resampling controls
* Create, save, and load custom instrument and volume configurations

* Export MIDI or MOD files to wav
* Compressed .sfArk and .sfArk.exe SoundFont extraction

* Folder and playlist based music organization

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Timidity AE free to download?
Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

What Android version does Timidity AE require?
Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.

Is Timidity AE safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by F-Droid Open Source. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.

How do I update Timidity AE?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).

Why is the app not installing?
Common causes: not enough storage, an older Android version than 4.1+, or a conflicting build already installed. Free up space, check your OS version, and uninstall any previous copy before retrying.
