USB MIDI <> Bluetooth MIDI interface + host

This device works really well, it’s easy to connect with a computer or iPad. I believe it can also be connected to android tablets. You do need to purchase wires, unless you already have some shown in picture and I bought a small battery pack that just lasts forever running this small gadget Works really well for me when creating music on the go. No latency at all, as far as I can tell so very pleased. The only thing I would say is, it’s a bit pricey.

It works beautifully, I never noticed the latency at all. After initial setup it connects seamlessly by itself as soon as you add power. It is tiny but seems well made. Very happy.

WIDI Uhost I nearly sent it back because I couldn't get it to connect via Settings, Bluetooth. Then after searching the web I cracked it. To make it work with my MacBook Pro go to, Applications, Utilities, Audio MIDI Setup app and select MIDI Studio, Open Bluetooth Configuration... and it's right there. You'll need to install the app on your phone to fine tune and apply any updates. The device works very well, install and forget. It has a magnet built into the back for convenient attaching to metal surfaces, and a metal disk with 3M adhesive pad for attaching to a plastic surface. I like it, though it's horrendously expensive, so only four stars otherwise five.

I've been using bluetooth midi to send midi from a Widi Master to my M1 Mac. All worked great but, often, I could notice some delays and note dropped notes (especially when playing fast parts). I read this is because MacOS does not prioritize bluetooth midi processing (among the many processes the computer is running). So, I got this Widi Uhost to handle the bluetooth midi to USB conversion instead. This means that, to my Mac M1, it's like if I had a usb midi cable plugged to it. It works great! It paired with my Widi Master (make sure the Widi master is set to "peripheral") and no more delays or dropped notes. As always, fast delivery from Amazon!

I purchased the CME Widi Uhost to allow my Boss Katana 100 Mk II amp to connect to the Boss Katana Librarian in addition to the Tone Studio which I was already using. The unit arrived timely and is a great design being small and compact and instruections were easy to use to set it up. It paired with my iPhone 14 via thier Widi Uhost app when connected to the Katana with a USB B to USB C cable and powered using my iPhone's charger. However, after downloading the Librairian it would not connect to the amp after updating the unit's USB and Firmware to v0.2.2.4 so I contacted CME who were extremely helpful and adivsed to downgrade to the previous v0.2.2.1 which worked perfectly. CME's developers will now find the issue and release a fix in due course. I would highly recommned this unit to anyone needing to connect to their Katana 50 or 100 Mk II as well as using the device for any Midi keyboards etc. 5 Stars CME

A little tricky to set up, but CME provided first class support and it was well worth the effort. The unit performs extremely well and provides all the expected functionality. I highly recommend it.

I really like this, used with a widi jack to connect a midi keyboard to my Linux system. It sets itself up when you power on, visible to Linux without any faff and no discernable latency.

It works as it should and I'm happy with it. I bought my one less then a year ago for £31 and wanted to buy another one until I found out that they are £59 now. That is an increase of £28. I don't how they can justify such a price hike.

J’ai acheté le uhost pour palier aux performances minables du midi Bluetooth sur Mac. En effet Apple est au top mais en ce qui concerne le Bluetooth, ils ont décidé que les communications n’étaient pas prioritaires, donc pour des changements de programme, ça passe, mais si vous voulez utiliser un contrôleur continu (une pédale d’expression dans mon cas, branchée sur un pédalier midi Bluetooth) vous avez une latence qui rend le truc inutilisable. Maintenant sur mon MacBook, le Bluetooth est éteint et ce petit truc est branché en usb-c, pédalier midi et pédale d’expression reconnus de suite, nouveau périphérique midi dispo sur la Mac et 0 latence ressentie !

Dass sich das Gerät seine Bluetooth-Partner quasi selbständig sucht ist genau so toll, wie die nicht vorhandene Zeitverzögerung beim Spielen. Schön wäre es noch, wenn es das Helferlein auch mit integriertem Akku gäbe.

WIDI Uhost Blouethooth MIDIインターフェース KORGの電子ピアノE1のUSB MIDI出力をBTでipadに接続することが出来ました。譜面台に置いたiPadがケーブルレスになってスッキリします。 商品にケーブルや電源アダプタは付属しません。USB端子は両方ともタイプC形状で、片方に5vの電源供給が必要です。 設置するための両面テープ付きマグネットが付属していましたが、磁力が弱く垂直面ではケーブルの重さに負けてしまうので、マグネットは利用せずに、普通に両面テープで固定しました。 midi信号で電源が連動しないとすると、入れっぱなしにするか、都度電源usbケーブルを抜くかする必要がありそうです。 アプリskoove pianoで利用していますが、アプリ側のレッスン音声などはUSB接続の時は電子ピアノ側のスピーカーに出力できましたが本商品ではmidiのみの連携となるため音声は連携されません。 ipadの音声出力をピアノ再生にするためのbluetooth 接続も繋ぐ必要があるようです。 レッスンアプリの音声とピアノの音をヘッドホンで聴くには両方必要でしたが、 iPadからピアノへの音声がＡ２ＤＰで遅延が大きいため、iPadアプリの再生するメトロノームの音をBTでピアノ経由で耳で聞いて演奏したＭＩＤＩ情報がまたBTでiPadに戻されて正しい鍵盤を弾けたか判定という使い方は無理でした。本商品側の遅延は少ないので、全く悪くないのですが、Skooveで本商品を利用しようと思っている方は注意です。 SkooveがWindowsなどのブラウザ対応してくれればこんな苦労はないのですが。。。 何もせずに使えましたが、widiというアプリからファームウェア更新があったので適用しました。 ファームウェア更新後は、Bloototh設定から解除→再登録しないと使えませんでした。 グルーピングなど高度な機能が不要であればアプリはいらないかも。

Buona soluzione per connettere con bluetooth apparecchi che non lo sono nativamente. Usato per collegare: Nektar pacer, Line 6 FNC short board MkII ad iPad Pro 2018, iPhone SE 2020 e MacBook air 2020 con garage band, Ableton live e altre app per iOS. Tutto corretto e nessuna problema di latenza. Unico neo la procedura di collegamento che è un pò lenta nei passaggi.

If you own a Donner DDP-80 and use an iPad (9th Generation) for lessons like Piano Marvel, this is the solution you need. We switched to this because the iPad 9th Gen only has one port; using this Bluetooth adapter allows us to connect the piano and charge the iPad at the same time. The Highlights: Zero Latency: I was worried about a delay between hitting a key and the iPad registering it, but the response is instant. There is no noticeable lag. Visual Feedback: A blue light on the WIDI flashes with every keystroke, confirming the signal is active. Cleaner Setup: It removes the bulky USB cable between the piano and tablet. Children broke a few of these... The Trade-offs: Price: A bit pricey for an adapter. Power: It requires its own separate power cable to stay active. Note: This is an honest review based on my personal experience; I am not affiliated with the company and this is not a paid advertisement. Quick Setup Guide: App First: Download the CME WIDI app. Pairing: Hold the small button on the side of the device to connect via Bluetooth. Firmware: Use the app to run the firmware updates. Important: There are two separate updates to complete! Launch Lessons (App): Open Piano Marvel. It detects the device automatically and works perfectly. It’s an investment, but it’s the best way to keep the iPad charged during long practice sessions on the DDP-80.
