The WIDI app is a dedicated application for configuring and setting all WIDI wireless Bluetooth MIDI devices (including WIDI Master, WIDI Jack, WIDI Uhost, WIDI Bud Pro, WIDI Core/CoreX and authorized products such as Kurzweil Air MIDI, Xvive MD1, etc.). Not to even to talk about the missed opportunities with today’s smart devices, touch screens and more specifically mobile devices.With Group Auto-learn mode in the new BLE firmware (version is higher than v0.1.6.6), now you can add other BLE MIDI devices in the WIDI group. It totally passes the initial idea of having a uniform protocol for communication.
It is for me really weird that traditional DIN MIDI and common USB MIDI already have some difficulties to be compatible with each other. The wireless connectivity solves many challenges all those different MIDI terminals have. Of course, there will be people that stick with what they know. Taking the best of both worlds opens up new creative opportunities. Cables have advantages, just like wireless has advantages. From my perspective, it is not cables or wireless.
I do not think latency and reliability are the real issue. It is the same old story of the chicken or the egg. It has been causing problems for phone companies and militaries, too. If two signals try to travel in the same lane at the same time, they may jostle each other. So devices such as cell phones and Wi-Fi routers are supposed to steer clear of those lanes.Īt times, though, signals accidentally stray from their assigned lanes. Some parts of the radio spectrum are very important to this work. Other scientists use radio waves to study Earth’s surface. Ransom and other astronomers tune in to radio waves from space. Scientists need room on that overcrowded highway, too. In many places, the spectrum is so clogged that it’s like a real highway at rush hour.
More and more devices want to be on the road, and there are only so many lanes. That means radio signals travel through the air as very long, stretched-out waves.įor a long time, dividing the radio spectrum like an enormous highway has worked. But radio waves have much lower energy than these other signals. This spectrum of energy also includes the light we can see, along with X-rays and ultraviolet light. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation.
