Bluetooth MIDI

Bluetooth LE MIDI keyboards, controllers and interfaces are connected from the + button › Bluetooth MIDI…. Once connected, the device appears among the system ports with the BT badge.

On iPad and iPhone

  1. Switch the Bluetooth device on and put it in pairing mode, if it needs it.
  2. Press + › Bluetooth MIDI…: the system panel opens with the devices it finds.
  3. Tap the device: when it shows Connected, close the panel.
  4. Press + again and add the device's port to the column.

The first time, iOS asks for permission to use Bluetooth: it is only used to connect to MIDI instruments.

On the Mac

+ › Bluetooth MIDI… opens the system window for Bluetooth MIDI devices: choose the device and press Connect. The device stays connected for other apps too.

Bluetooth MIDI has a slightly higher latency than a USB cable. If a device does not show up, check that it is not already connected to another iPad, iPhone or Mac.
