Bluetooth MIDI retrofits: A nice option
Always looking for options to avoid cables, I've been wondering for a while what would be the best ways to add Bluetooth MIDI to standard MIDI controllers.
I've got both the Quicco mi.1 and the Yamaha MD-BT01 and being curious as ever, I just had to know what's inside.
The Quiccos have a molded case that can only be oppened by destroying it while the BT01 are quite easy to open (just one screw).
Here's the Quicco:
And here's the Yamaha:
The PCB inside the Yamaha is small enough to fit into any MIDI controller I know.
Usually, a small USB power bank attached to it is all you need to make almost any MIDI controller BlueTooth MIDI compliant. Some controllers like the Faderfox series don't support BlueTooth MIDI dongles (and in this case you'd need to build an additional supply circuit) but it works with most controllers I know.
Here's the circuit to add power to controllers that originally don't support BT MIDI plugs:
