Wireless MIDI Bluetooth Box Finally Coming for iOS Devices?
Currently wireless MIDI for the iPad is only possible in two ways. One, via a wireless network session on your PC/Mac, or two, via OSC to MIDI via The Missing Link. The Missing Link only supports OSC to MIDI and not MIDI to MIDI when connected over wireless.
At this point in time, a simple wireless Core MIDI device does not exist. In order for one to work it would probably need to host Apple's Core MIDI Server. Or maybe not...
iOS Musician wrote in to let us know that Jay Coggin may offer a Bluetooth device with MIDI In and Out.
via Jay Coggin's site: "Below [above] is a sort of overall diagram for the system. The iDevice sends and receives MIDI messages with a small external piece of hardware via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). This new type of Bluetooth is responsible for making this whole project possible, and is only supported on iDevices beginning with the iPhone 4S and newer. This includes the iPhone 5, iPad 3 and 4, newest iPod Touch, and iPad Mini. The small piece of hardware contains a MIDI In and Out port and communicates these messages with the iDevice. MIDI Out messages can be used to drive, for example, a DAW or hardware synth, and the MIDI In port can receive and forward controller messages to the iDevice."
According to the following quote from Jay on iOS Musician, it sounds like an app would handle the MIDI messages:
"In fact, maybe it’d be best to just have a really basic app that just implements my Bluetooth stuff and sends/receives MIDI messages to other apps with Virtual MIDI... I’m thinking about taking the project to Kickstarter, I’m just a really busy grad student and I almost need a little startup company to get this going."
Full wireless MIDI on iOS devices is a bit of a holy grail. I hope this happens. If you want to see it happen, leave a comment here.

A few of my favorite strings
Published on Oct 30, 2012 by sounddoctorin
"Bob Weigel of http://www.sounddoctorin.com assisted by Mr. Baxter who asks annoying questions to help confuse me, demonstrates basic 8'/4' mix on some of the classic string machines of the 70's. The Freeman String Symphonizer, Crumar Multiman, ARP Omni, Roland RS-202, Korg PE-2000, Hohner Stringer, and the late 70's and early 1980 ARP Quartet (Siel Orchestra) and the Moog Opus 3."
Doepfer Pocket Dial, MIDI controller

Anyone know why these match the Technosaurus color scheme rather than Doepfer's typical grey?
"This unit from Doepfer is a MIDI controller that is usable with synths, computers, rack effects, DJ mixer, etc. Since it uses encoders rather than pots, you can switch between the four banks (4 different sets of 16 midi cc's, means you have 64 controllers available in this unit on the fly) and change the values with any skipping around or jumping of values. It works great and includes the manual, unit itself and a power adapter. The power adapter works fine but has some electrical tape on it where I switched it's polarity to work with this unit.
Here is Doepfer's official bit of info on the Pocket Dial:
POCKET DIAL is a MIDI control box with 16 endless rotary encoders - in contrast to POCKET CONTROL that is equipped with 16 rotary potentiometers. This enables a jump-less change of parameters - provided that the device or software controlled by POCKET DIAL features data feedback of the new starting data after a preset change as POCKET DIAL needs the starting values of theparameters of the new preset. Another possibility is the increment/decrement control of the parameters in question. In this case the POCKET DIAL does not "know" the absolute values of the parameters but transmits only inc/dec data to the device/software. Only devices that features the data feedback or inc/dec control should be controlled by POCKET DIAL. If you need more details about this item please click here. For other devices we recommend POCKET CONTROL or POCKET FADER.
The main application of POCKET DIAL will be the control e.g. of software synthesizers. POCKET DIAL is placed in front of the computer screen so that the absolute parameter data and their changes can be seen immediately at the screen."
