MIDI
This app supports both MIDI input and output over USB. To use MIDI, you will need to purchase the
Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter. This will connect to you IPAD, will then let you connect the
4Cast DMX Bridge using a standard USB (mini) cable.
The camera adapter will also allow you to connect to a USB MIDI controller like the Elation MIDIcon
2. If you would like to connect to both the 4Cast DMX Bridge and a MIDI controller at the same time,
you will need a simple USB hub, preferably one that is powered, as some controllers like the MIDIcon
2 get power from the USB bus.
From the “Settings” view in the fixtures pop-up menu, you can enable MIDI in the MIDI out separately.
There is also a function to detect MIDI devices that are connected and check the MIDI messages
coming from a controller.
As of this version, there is some support for controller input from the MIDIcon 2 or any MIDI controller
that can send MIDI notes. MIDI notes 1-24 on any channel will trigger the buttons on the currently
displayed tab or page. The page control on the MIDIcon 2 will also sync and control pages on the app.
Pages will respond to continuous controller 11 with a value of 1 - 99 for the page number. The tabs
will respond to notes 59- 63, and the master fader will respond to continuous controller 9. MIDI channel
is ignored for all.
