Control Messages cannot send zero

there are some devices that require the Control Message Value to be zero, but this app sets the value from 1-128, which is incorrect. It’s useless to me. Waste of money.

A great start

This is a very intuitive app. And the visualization is exactly what I was looking for. I wish it had export/import and copy/paste/duplicate functionality. I would love to be able to transfer settings between my Apple devices.

Works great but

I would really like to be able to save my pages offline so I could have a backup as well as transfer them back-and-forth between my phone and iPad. Other than that, it works as advertised very handy tool.

Great App

This app is great very easy to use. There’s only a couple things if they would change I think would make it better. In the old version of this app, you could save your work. It would be nice if you could do that in this version the only change that could be made would be instead of sliders if we could just type the values in

Simple and effective

Very impressed with how well this works. I used this with Garageband as an alternative to spending 50-100$ on a midi drum controller pad. Extremely responsive even when drumming very fast (picture like metal drums). My phone is a bit old and the drum hits still don’t even lag whatsoever or skip a beat. Would highly recommend as a cost effective minimalistic a midi drum controller!

Great app!

Looking forward to the following features: - cloud sync - configurable slide controls (0-127 or 1-128) - volume knobs in addition to tiles

Good app, one request

Hi, I really like the app. Could you add a landscape mode though? It’s hard to have a cable plugged in my phone to control my device and leave it in the vertical position. Being able to set the phone on its side would be great. Thanks

Midi control shifted by 1

I’m using the app to control my Nord, and I have to address the control changes by adding one to the number of control number. it’s easy to detect the bug by comparing the setting of MidiPad with the log of MIDI Wrench app.

Good program but...

Official midi CC for sustain is 65, but in this app I have to put 65. Official midi CC for volume is 7 but in this app I have to put 8. Also any note I program or edit in the app gets played a whole octave lower on midi sound modules. I do love the versitility of the program. Thanks.

Simple, does exactly what I want

I use this app to remotely control Live Professor 2 over a wifi network so I can change keys on my vocal tuning software with a simple press of a button. It does it really simply, and connecting the midi from my iPad to my Macbook is really easy too.

Great little app

i've been using this app on gigs for a couple of years now. It works very well. There are a couple of features that I would like to see added. - The ability to copy and paste, buttons, or tap, and slide them to a new position - The ability to swipe between pages instead of having to go to the button at the top, and then select a page - The ability to change the order of pages

Thank you!!!

Replaced an expensive multi button hardware controller for AUM patch changes as it was useless in low light as couldn’t see buttons unlit until they’re pressed. Set this up in seconds and added Bluetooth capability thru midimtr. Done! Suggestions: option to swipe to go to other pad pages - good for live performance. Add a tip jar in settings ; )

mostly a real nice app

Mostly real nice app. Midi note number editor should be bigger. A "copy page" function would nice. I start with blank buttons that fit my hands and map in functions... You could get funky and map the tilt sensor to midi cc. Thanks for putting it up.

Great but...

This has been a go to app on gigs for me for over a year. However, since I upgraded to sn iPhone 14 eith iOS 16.2, it keeps losing connection to the pedal. I've tried other cables and the same thing happens. I sometimes can get it back by killing the app and relaunching. Sometimes I have to actually reboot the phone. Is there an update in the near future?

Yes

Has the cc control I needed as you can send values with the cc message.

2 Negative User Reviews for MidiPad 2

Needs more in setup

Need the ability to set range from 0-127 not just 1-128

Has positives but has serious cons

The pad does a lot of things and meet all the needs but comes with lot of cons. 1. Once you change the page rows and columns, all your saved settings are lost. Gone for good and have to completely redo. There is no way to restore, undo or set default settings. 2. The app does not allow to change PAGE ORIENTATION. What’s the point? Nobody uses the app in portrait mode! 3. Should provide more colors for changing synth hardware programs.
