Connect Midi Keyboard To Ipad Bluetooth

Up until now, I could connect either a USB-audio headphone OR a USB-compliant MIDI keyboard to my USB-C iPad via a wired connection, but not both. This meant that one of the two – keyboard or headphone – had to be connected via Bluetooth. This is usually not a problem except when trying to record a live performance, where Bluetooth latency is frankly unacceptable. With the MiniFuse, however, both the keyboard and the headphone attach to the interface, and a single USB-C cable connects to the iPad. I have so many neat synth and other music creation apps on there that I can finally use live! This is HUGE for me. Note that the MiniFuse 4 supports up to 500 mA keyboards via its USB-hub, so long as it's plugged in, whereas the MiniFuse 2 supports only up to 250 mA devices, which cuts out most external USB-compliant MIDI keyboards. Yeah, it's a bit of a pain to have to plug the MiniFuse 4 to a wall socket to make it all work, but that's still just a single wire. Oh, also, I've connected some synths to the audio inputs, and I've been running both the headphone and main Audio outputs, as well as the loopback interface both with the iPad and my mac, and it all works and sounds fantastic. The manual takes a bit of careful reading to understand the possible routings (for me at least, I'm a newbie at this) but it's well written and I was able to figure it out pretty quickly. I didn't know I needed it, but now that I have the MiniFuse, I can't imagine not having it as the central hub to my synthesizer setup.

It is a great product. Connected to my Iphone or Ipad using the Bluetooth there is no perceptive delay, the response is very fast. I use a few apps to produce sounds and create music. Some of them: Garage Band, Music Studio, Korg Module Le and others. It is important to first download the app Bluetooth MIDI Connect (BLE-MIDI) to be able to connect the Keyboard using the BlueTooth. I have a few keyboards of different sizes (from nanokey, Microkey 25, 49 to full size). I enjoy this one because is very portable to travel or carry around with no need of extra cables to connect.

Bought this to connect my old digital keyboard that only has midi ports wirelessly to my iPad. I can finally make full use of the keyboard and the synthesia app now. Connection is quick and painless.

A good Midi interface device to connect the keyboard with the PC through MIDI ports and use Midi apps.

I ordered this MIDI Connect Cable to connect my keyboard to my laptop computer in anticipation of getting a MIDI capable sequencer. The cable is made better then I thought it would be and it is as long as advertised, which is great. The Interface has LEDs to indicate it's on and when it receives a MIDI event, which is helpful when hooking stuff up. IOt was a good buy from an already trusted place - B&H !

When combined with the widi bud usb dongle you have a truly wireless Bluetooth midi keyboard that is slim and works with negligible latency which is great for portable musicians and producers.

This device is easy to use easy to setup. I used to think midi was difficult until this little guy came out. I could turn my iPad into a groovy keyboard or attach it to a touch pad it versatile and worth its value.

I needed to extend a Midi USB output from my keyboard to an iPad and type B USB extension cable was the only option. I wish there was a longer cable but this one will do. It works very well.

Works great, just as described from the manufacturer. I got this to simplify my live keyboard rig. I am able to connect two midi keyboards as inputs to my DAW from one cable. I didn't need midi out as I trigger VST synths from my laptop DAW but it's nice to know I can use either as an in or out and it senses and configures itself auto-magically. I liked it so much I ordered another one.

I bought this cable to connect my devices with USB type-B jacks (MIDI keyboard, USB microphone) directly into my iPad without the use of the Apple dongle. It works great, especially with the USB mic when I'm doing voiceover work in a mobile setting and want to minimize my kit.
