iConnectivity
iConnectivity has announced iConnectMIDI – a new box that lets you use your iPhone to directly control hardware synths.
Here’s how iConnectivity explains how iConnectMIDI works:
Plug your electronic instrument (synthesizer, guitar, whatever) into iConnectMIDI and you can play and control your music, using your iPhone or iPod, your instrument, or both at the same time.
You’re not limited to one musical instrument either. With iConnectMIDI you can connect up to 16 devices in a chain, controlling all of them with your iPhone or iPod Touch.
Connectors:
Standard MIDI (5-pin DIN): 2 x MIDI-IN, 2 x MIDI-OUT
USB-MIDI: 1x Type-A connector to USB-MIDI device
USB: 1 x mini-USB connector to computer
RJ-50 connector to iPhone/iPod Touch (cable included)
(MIDI and USB cables not included)
iConnectivity is also planning to offer a number of applications for your iPhone or iPod Touch that you can use with iConnectMIDI and your musical devices.
