Bluetooth adapter.

Bluetooth adapter.

2010-11-04 by congadude51

hi,
BCF 2000
i was wondering if anyone has tried a Bluetooth Adapter to remotely control software on a laptop.
Would be great to mix audio software via CCs on a BCF 2000 from the audience position, and only need power.
Any comment appreciated.
cheers

Hi,
I developed a circuit and PCB for wireless Midi using a XBee zigbee modules.

It was only one way for my Yamaha WX5 but as the Xbee is bi-directional I am going to expand it to work on my Akai EWI 4000s.

It is fairly straight forward cct and was originally developed on the LadyAda website.

Hope this helps

Royce

Thanks Royce,

i was hoping to just plug a bluetooth adapter to the "B type" usb socket of the BCF2000, and with the BT module turned on in my laptop
configure a handshake, but I haven't tried that, and anyway the BT adapters don't appear to come in the "B" plug config.
This would make mixing from front of stage so simple and effective, just CCs controlling major faders.

How do you think to install the necessary drivers for your bluetooth device on the BCF...? ;-)

but I haven't tried that, and anyway the BT adapters don't appear to come in the "B" plug config.

That would be just a matter of using the right adaptor plug...

Hi Sunrider, Schrieb
Sorry, didn't think about drivers at the bcf end, just expected to sort everything out at the receiving end, only wanting the BCF to send midi, nothing required the other way.
i tried to connect the BCF to my laptop using usb for the manager software, but couldn't make it work, so went back to a standard midi lead. Anyhow I can't find a bluetooth adapter that will plug in to the "B" socket, they are all made with the standard usb plug.
Guess I'm stuck..
cheers
