Agreed. I love the articulations you can get through subtle touches.
I think it might be difficult to get very precise consistent control across multiple keys, but for playing synths you can play very expressively which adds another dimension to your playing. You can use a preset where it plays like a standard midi keyboard when you need to.
Yeah the ways i can customise the Quneo are great. I started mapping a couple of templates for Thesys and Magellan last night in grid mode so i have 64 available assignments and can play chords across the pads for my synths! Once i've created a few more i'll upload them.
A question for anyone here, could i connect a quneo and qunexus with a USB splitter cable? It would save having to get a powered hub as i just use the ipad on my sofa at the minute so don't need lots of extra peripheral gear. Cheers.
Have you tried both at the same time using an unpowered hub?
Actually i forgot i had one but been unable to find it, i'll have to try and dig it out. Cheers!

ETA i don't have the Quneo which is why i asked but i found the hub, i was just wondering if a splitter would work with low power devices in place of a hub and whether apps would see both controllers. I'd need it to be USB to micro anyway but tested my A300 Pro with the Quneo and the iPad didn't like it.
The velocity sensitivity in my Qunexus varies so much, that not even the software can compensate for it.
I had the same issue. They need better quality control and factory calibration of each unit. The crude adjustment of the velocity of each individual key in the software didnt accurately compensate for this. Good price point but alas, for me, not consistent enough in response.
I sent it back to the dealer for a refund.
Hmmm, that put a dampener on things! At least there's a couple of other options. If i start doing live stuff with the ipad i'll have to look closely at the KMI controllers and the XKeys, that seems to have more development on the ios side.

I have used both with a small, cheap 4-port unpowered hub. The hub causes the Ipad to boost the current output from the paltry 20ma to 80ma which provides enough power for the Qunexus, Quneo and even my Behringer UCA-222 USB audio interface.
The cable splitter would probably not work because the Ipad would most likely only send out 20ma.
Oh so an unpowered hub can boost the output?!! That's good to know, i was thinking about one of the behri interfaces so i can get sounds into the iPad as well but was unclear on what i needed to provide enough power. Cheers matey!
I'm a bit skeptical on how a passive device can increase current.
I can't power my A300 directly from the CCK but i can via my hub but as soon as i connect the Quneo i get the power message. The hub can be powered though so i can always plug in an adapter. Do 2 channel usb interfaces work directly from the CCK or do most need a hub?
I thought about this a bit further, and I'm wrong to assume the hub is a passive device. It is being sourced from the USB host, but still, I'm perplexed on how that could amplify the current....not to say it isn't possible.
@musikmachine said:Do 2 channel usb interfaces work directly from the CCK or do most need a hub?
By 2 channel, I assume you mean transmit and receive channels. I'm using my EIE audio interface directly to the CCK and able to send and receive at my iOS device.

I think he's saying that when the iPad sees a USB hub the iPad itself changes the amount of current. This is news to me too. @dham did you measure this yourself?
That seems equally peculiar. I'd like to know if that's what is really happening.
@syrupcore said:
iPads can do that? I thought it was just one constant current level.
I thought plugging a hub was 'tricking' the iPad cause you're conecting via that so the ipad doesn't know what's being powered. Even the Quneo triggers a message unless it's in low power mode...
Yeah 2in 2 out. What battery life do you get? I'm still still trying to decide how to use the iPad for music while keeping it charged, i don't use it a ton but i need to charge it most days.
@papertiger said:
For sure, would be nice. Does conecting 2 qunexus' cause any issues on ipad's ability to distigush them? i was thinking of getting another, actually this k-board.
I haven't drained it all the way down using my EIE, but I've gotten 5-6 hours out if it.
Thanks!
