Hm… Been experimenting with the Yamaha MD-BT01 Bluetooth adapter. Didn’t have any broken connection and the latency hasn’t bothered me. Will try it on the MEiO once it arrives. In theory, it should work. If so, it can make for an awesome setup.
Can now confirm that this setup works really well, at least on iOS.
Here’s a rundown of that specific setup. (Many other configurations are possible.)
My Yamaha WX-11 wind controller is plugged to the MEiO through DIN-5 MIDI in.
My Yamaha MD-BT01 is plugged to the MEiO through DIN-5 MIDI out.
A Marshall footswitch (PEDL 90010) is plugged into one of the MEiO’s ¼ inch pedal inputs.
The USB cable for the MEiO is plugged into a power adapter (actually, just USB power on an IKEA power bar).
My iPad Pro is running Quantiloop with Moog’s Model 15 loaded as AUv3.
Quantiloop is set to connect to the MD-BT01 and, through MIDI Learn, assigned that to the first factory button in Quantiloop (Record/Play…).
Through MIDI Learn, Model 15 uses CC02 from my wind controller to modulate the cutoff frequency of the lowpass filter.
No noticeable latency, no zipping effect in the filter, no disconnection, no problem using the footswitch to activate the looper, no problem whatsoever
This means that my iPad Pro can be plugged directly into a PA system while the rest of my setup is with me, at a certain distance. Tried a similar setup without the MEiO and footswitch, playing in a park. Was able to go 30 feet from the PA system and hear myself as audience members would.
