  • There is also a lot of Bluetooth options, like a Bluetooth mouse, Bluetooth camera button, or a video game controller set up to select what you want.

    There has been multiple profiles, but I thought it was fairly recent that you could switch between them. Probably though that ability was always there but I didn't know about it until seeing Michael's video about it (around the 6:30 mark).

    [edit] OK, yes switching profiles was already there in 1.0 but is made a little easier in 1.1 because you can have more than one profile active at a time and just turn them on and off as needed.

    Yeah I’m pretty sure it’s always been there, I didn’t see this video but has really got my brain firing of how I can use this on my Apc40 too

    @wim Here comes a reason to be happy: Indeed these tips work on their own, at least on the typical capacitive touch screens like we have them on most modern touch devices.

    I just remembered I had a cheap stylus that I used with my phone. I tried to tape it on the end of my stick for a scientific test. Nope it doesn’t work, it needs to be held with a hand so the wire down the shaft attached to material from a touchscreen glove may work. I just tried wrapping my stick in aluminium foil, nope that doesn’t work. It looks cool but 😂

    This is gonna sound crazy but I was wondering if there is any kind of something that I could tape onto the tip of my drumstick that would give me the ability to touch my iPad with said stick. I don’t want those tiny little sticks that are made for iPad as I’m hitting a spdx sample pad. I’d like the ability to reach over with the stick and gently touch a button on the iPad

    Yea way better with a small midi pad of some sort. I wouldn’t risk it. However, Remo makes these really cool handheld drums for kids called the [lollipop drum](Remo ET-7110-00 Kids Percussion Lollipop Drum, 10" https://a.co/d/9QF37IB "lollipop drum"). It has a handle so you can twist it after you hit it to get these cool sounds. Anyway the actual drum stick which is also sold separately for like $8 has a soft foam ball on the end. It’s not super precise like a stylus but might work. If you are going to try this I would look at some of the remo kids drum sticks. I would not rec this at all since touch is how you interact with the entire device so I can see it causing a slew of potential issues, that would prevent you from using your device. If you do Remo’s series of soft Kids drums sticks would be a top consideration in my opinion. The make very high quality instruments for kids, as well as regular percussion stuff.

    Maybe it’s the way I ask my questions without enough clarity, I did say that I don’t want to use those toy sticks as I’m hitting a spdx sample pad, I want to reach over and gently touch the iPad.(to fire loops, change instrument kits etc in loopy) I’d have to be a bit of a special person if I wanted to hit an iPad screen with wooden drum sticks.. although I am quite special 🤣

    I suspect it’s because few people here are drummers and they don’t know the trigger pad you’re talking about.

    And of the drummers probably very few can read.

    Haha classic! Why do drummers get such a hard time? I’m a guitarist not a drummer but love drums. We always give drummers shit for some reason, why is that? Maybe because they sit up the back of the stage?

    Yeah you’re right, in future I will elaborate more. It’s a common thing I do, to presume people know what I’m talking about 😬

    Wait, did you just wrap your drum stick in aluminum foil or did you also attach the tip of a touchscreen stylus?
    That's what I did here and it definitely worked!!
