is the CME Widi Jack worth buying?

Great and clear video! 👍👍

Thomas Gerbrands Hi, thanks 😀👍

[@mghumphrey]

I wish they would make a variation on this that takes 9V via ths standard 2.1mm jack that's used on pretty much every guitar pedal.

Dude i bought this thing and its actually a real pain in the AAAAS to get working, ive been at it for like 3 hours now.

The magnet is cool but wish it was a bit stronger.

Id really love to see a user based tutorial and troubleshoot on this because even CME's own tutorials are kind of vague.

[@IbandUK]

@ageshero Hi, because these CME wireless Bluetooth devices auto pair, they will literally try to pair with anything Bluetooth... So turn off Bluetooth on your phone, tablet, and anything else you don't want it to try to pair with.

Can I use this on a non midi devices to transmit sound from my keyboard? ex: to a non midi mixer.

[@IbandUK]

@MG-MusicLover Hi, no, these only send midi not audio. Audio over Bluetooth (currently) is incredibly slow, so I would probably use something like the Roland WL20L instead.

Thanks for the video, but I'm more interested in using this with a mini midi keyboard like the Novation Launckey Mini MK3, Arturia Minilab MK3, or the Akai MPK Mini MK3. Have any idea if this would work with them?

Tony Lancer The Widi Jack connects to a midi Din socket (or cable variants) but those keyboards typically only have a midi usb-b port, so no. Keyboards with only a midi usb-b port have to connect to a midi host device, like a computer, smart phone, smart tablet or standalone device like the Kenton midi host.

@@IbandUK Except the Arturia, the rest have TRS MIDI so that's where my question lies.

My Midi keyboard has a USB-B input, i dont see how i would be able to connect to the Widi🤔

[@IbandUK]

Detroit vs YOU Usb-b sockets have to be connected to a usb host, like a computer or a phone (or tablet or expensive pro synths). However, if you want to connect it to a widi jack or widi master, you will need a midi usb host unit (like a kenton)... kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJqTimSdbMt6b8k
