CENTRIC Tech 003 - Pink Floyd Midi Sequence: iPad to Analog

"In this episode I demonstrate the iPad Camera Connection Kit's ability to process midi in and out simultaneously. To do this I play Pink Floyd's "On The Run" sequence using the Little Midi Machine App for iPad to send midi to a Novation Bass Station analog synth, while play the bass riff for "Money" on the iPad app Animoog via an Arturia midi controller. Furthermore I show how you can actually control the sound parameters of an external synth using a custom made midi template in the app Midi Designer"

Update via David Warman in the comments: "The CCK driver in iOS is actually very complete. I have the following hooked up to my iPad (3rd gen) in my desktop setup:

7 port USB 2.0 hub with:

USB MIDI from an Akai SynthStation 25

USB Audio Mobile-Pre

USB MIDI (1x el cheapo) gateway to/from my MIDITap network (leads to my Mac and external synths and A-80 keyboard)

USB MIDI (2 logical ports) from UC-33 pot box with a KX-5 on its external MIDI port

USB MIDI Korg nanoKONTROL2 pot box

USB MIDI (1x el cheapo) PG-300 pot box for MKS-50 (external device) - need mapper from its Sysex to CC for iPad controls

USB LED lamp (doesn't really count except for power)

I power the hub from a 12Ah USB charger battery, seemingly never runs down. Everything else is USB powered from the hub.

Everything shows up in MidiBridge and works as expected, no noticeable latency playing live into any of the mIDI devices.

You can tell I'll be first in line for the iConnectMIDI4+ :)"

  2. That's impressive. I don't think I ever thought about it before. I usually either go direct CCK to one MIDI cable or wifi OSC to MIDI with The Missing Link. Thanks for sharing this. I added it to the post and put a new one up to let others know.

  3. One thing I forgot to mention: while multiple MIDI devices are handled fine, so far it appears iOS will only handle one Audio device each way. n channels in (see Auria and the Focusrite 18i6) but only stereo out. Unless somebody has had better luck? I am unaware of any Apps that offer > 2 channels out. Does Auria give this with the Focusrite?
