Distribute MIDI data wirelessly

The CME WIDI Thru6 BT is a MIDI data distributor that supports both wired transmission and wireless transmission via Bluetooth: In addition to the Bluetooth interface, it features one wired input and five outputs. Its capable of realising its extremely low latency of just 3ms even over a wireless connection, and the 32-bit processor delivers four times the transmission speed of conventional MIDI transmitters. To ensure the seamless integration of all MIDI devices – and secure and error-free MIDI input – the WIDI Thru6 BT has a built-in optocoupler. The technical architecture is very well put together in general, guaranting the precise transmission of all MIDI commands, including Clock, SysEx, MTC and MPE. All in all, the WIDI Thru6 is a compact, modern, and reliable hub for combining and connecting a variety of musicmaking hardware.

Wired or wireless?

When this MIDI router is powered up via its USB-C socket, a green LED next to the connector lights up. On the front of the device is the MIDI input for receiving MIDI data from any connected hardware devices, with the second input coming in via Bluetooh 5.0 – capable of the bidirectional transmission of up to 16 channels. A blue LED lights up to confirm an active Bluetooth connection. Then, the five MIDI thru sockets can pass on this signal to any connected hardware devices.

Send and receive MIDI

The CME WIDI Thru6 BT is ideal for musicians who want to combine their hardware synths, samplers and keyboards in a complex setup, playing them via MIDI while also receiving and transmitting their MIDI data. To send and receive MIDI data over Bluetooth to hardware devices, the host must be running at least macOS Yosemite, iOS 8, Windows 10/11 or Android 8. And thanks to its flexible USB-C power supply, the CME WIDI Thru6 BT can be used in a wide range of scenarios: In addition to mains power (cable not included), it can also be run off a USB power bank, allowing this MIDI interface to be used on the fly in mobile setups.

About CME

The Chinese manufacturer CME produces MIDI controllers and is committed to making music production an unforgettable experience for musicians. To this end, the company has brought WiFi-capable MIDI interfaces, which it calls "WIDI" devices for short, to the market. The company's portfolio also includes wireless MIDI and wireless MIDI-over-Bluetooth interfaces, as well as MIDI-to-USB adapters and wireless keyboards that use these technologies at ultra-low latencies. To ensure that the products are suitable for everyday road and stage use, CME also produces customised accessories, such as waterproof carrying cases, for its devices.

Daisy-chain your distribution network

To use the CME WIDI Thru6, it must first be powered via the USB-C socket. Beforehand, the hardware (synths, keyboards, samplers, etc.) should be connected to the distributor using 5-pin MIDI cables. If MIDI data is to be sent to more than five devices, a daisy-chain configuration can be set up with multiple units by connecting one of the MIDI Thru outputs to the MIDI input of the next CME WIDI Thru6: In this setup, a musician will probably also need a USB hub to provide power for the individual devices. This way, a daisy-chain made up of several CME WIDI Thru6 units can be used to for create complex setups, for endlessly flexible arrangements on stage or in the studio. To further simplify things, a Bluetooth connection can also be established directly between two CME WIDI Thru6 units.

This worked very well out of the box with next to no setup and had been reliable since. I'm using it to connect an Oxi One sequencer via BLE to various other synths and drum machines via USB or wired MIDI. I did struggle to connect multiple devices wirelessly (I wonder if it might be necessary to use some of the additional CME WIDI adapters if you're planning to do this) but for a single wireless device and multiple wired I'm very happy with it.

Funktionierende Lösung für IOS

Das CME WIDI Thru6 BT beendet meinen Kampf mit dem iPad.

Verschiedene USB-MIDI-Interfaces am Camera Kit, oder an anderen Adaptern von Lightning auf USB... der Kampf mit Störspannung/Kriechstrom, obwohl MIDI-IN immer galvanisch getrennt sein sollte. Wer so ein iPad via kabelgebundenem MIDI ernsthaft mit einer Synthesizer-App nutzen will, findet fast mehr Wege, sich ins Bein zu schießen, als Töne auf dem Griffbrett.

Enter WIDI Thru 6 BT. Die Mitgelieferte Kurzanleitung erklärt alles, nur nicht die Bluetooth-Funktion, aber nun gut, die lange Anleitung gibt's online. (Daher Abzug bei Bedienung)

Man braucht die App "midimittr", um dieses Gerät mit IOS zu verbinden. Dann läuft alles apple-easy.

Schließt man z.B. ein Masterkeyboard via echter MIDI-Buchse am Thru6 an, so kommen alle seine MIDI-Signale im iPad an und gehen zugleich auf den 5 MIDI THRU-Buchsen raus. Dort könnte man auch noch ein MIDI-USB-Interface anschließen, um z.B. ein Laptop zu füttern, oder natürlich Synthesizer-Schätzen und anderes.

Wie schlimm die Latenz ist, kann ich aktuell nicht sagen, da ich ein Roland GK3b MIDI-Tonabnehmersystem für Bass nutze. Das hat schon von sich aus eine so hohe Latenz, dass die zusätzliche Bluetooth-Latenz nicht spürbar ist.

Auf die Plastikbüchse draufstehen sollte man nicht. Aber sie wirkt auch nicht klapperig. Abzug bei Verarbeitung für das viel zu kurze USB-Stromversorgungskabel und die Stromzufuhr über USB-C. Das ist zwar heute leider standard, aber diese pfrimelige Buchse ist bei Defekt nur schwer auszutauschen.

Solution parfaite pour intégrer une tablette Bluetooth dans votre chaîne midi
Laurens B. 26.09.2024
J'utilise le CME midi THRU6 BTavec une application de scruteur de textes/partitions pour envoyer une commande program change par titre depuis l'appli à mon pédalier de guitare. Ça a marché du premier coup et en cas de questios le support technique de Zhao le président de CME est infaillible H24 7/7, ultra réactif. On peut y aller les yeux fermés.
