Wireless Bluetooth MIDI connectivity for all your gear

Welcome to the world of wireless MIDI. CME has long been a proponent of wireless MIDI connectivity, utilising this cutting-edge technology to achieve fully wireless studio setups at home. Providing ‘plug-and-play’ class-compliant connectivity, the uHost allows you to connect virtually any MIDI instrument/gear to this wireless MIDI hub. With a wide variety of different configurations on offer, the uHost can be used for multiple applications. You can connect your USB MIDI hardware wirelessly to any Bluetooth MIDI device using a single WIDI uHost unit.

Using two WIDI uHost units, you can pair your USB MIDI hardware to your computer/tablet device including support for Windows, Android, Chrome OS and Linux. It will also work with iOS/macOS devices, allowing you to pair your USB MIDI hardware wirelessly using a single WIDI uHost. You can connect virtually any USB MIDI hardware together using the ground-breaking uHost technology. Utilising the latest Bluetooth technology, the uHost provides ultra-low-latency performance with an ultra-secure connection – perfect for the stage or the studio.

MIDI messages and dedicated WIDI app

Not only does the uHost provide high-speed and stable performance, but the unit is also able to transmit all MIDI messages via Bluetooth including notes, CC, MIDI clock, Long sysex (5kb) and MPE. The WIDI uHost also comes complete with a dedicated app that is user-friendly and allows you access to advanced settings. The app allows you to set up WIDI groups, as well as customise device names and also upgrade the firmware when needed.

FAQs

Q: Can I use this to play my hardware synths with a USB-only keyboard?
A: Yes! Plug your USB keyboard into the WIDI Uhost (it acts as the Host), and pair it with a WIDI Master on your synth. You can now play your hardware wirelessly without a computer.

Q: Do I need a computer to set it up?
A: No. It is a standalone device. You only need a computer or phone if you want to update the firmware or configure advanced MIDI groups via the free WIDI App.

Q: Will it power my MIDI controller?
A: Yes. If you provide 5V power to the second USB-C port, the Uhost can pass through up to 500mA to power your controller, making it a truly mobile wireless solution.

Q: How is this different from the WIDI Bud Pro?
A: The Bud Pro is designed primarily as a dongle for computers. The Uhost is more versatile because it can act as a USB Host for hardware controllers, which the Bud Pro cannot do.
