ladybug Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 it is more of a gadget then a necessarity....do you think a "remote-midi" can be realized ?instead of this bulky cables runnig all around your studio you'll have another module connecting to your core which will be transmitting midi-data to a reciever unit at the other side of your studio !possible ?

DriftZ Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Time to go study some RF stuff then ;)Seems more ppl like your idea:http://xmidi.com/bluetooth.htmlAlso, M-audio (midiman) once has been busy with a bluetooth wireless midi-interface.http://namm.harmony-central.com/SNAMM01/Content/Midiman/PR/Bluetooth-MIDI.htmlI don't think they ever put it into production (why not ??)best, Driftz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nerd Posted August 5, 2005 Report Share Posted August 5, 2005 I actually looked at doing something like this for a while. Using pic chips and bluetooth is a great combination.Here are some links that would be helpful on this.http://zuff.info/Bluetooth.htmlthis one is designed for basicstamp.. but could probably be used for pic chips http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=30068and here are some blue http://www.blueradios.com/here is a primer on how to use them.. http://www.sparkfun.com/tutorial/BlueTooth/bluetooth_primer.htmand a place to buy them http://www.sparkfun.com/shop/index.php?shop=1&cart=358488&cat=62&When I have more time, I plan on getting one of these and trying to make it work with midi. I just have no time right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK. Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 M-Audio offered a MIDI<->Bluetooth bridge some time ago, but it's not available anymore, propably because of the bottleneck problem. MIDI provides no handshake protocol - means: if a data package cannot be sent on time, it will be lost - for a musican thats a fatal scenario (think about hanging notes, incomplete sysex, etc).
