Iphone and ipad instruments ?

edited April 2012 in General Questions
Well, I guess I'm dreaming, but having an Iphone connected to my EWI, would turn my samplemodeling instruments into something even more real (no need of a laptop, soundboard...)



Is this planned, even in the 5 upcoming years ?





Best regards





Jethro





P.S. Thx sooooo much for selling such some marvels !

    I was thinking about the same. An iPad, a MIDI-interface, and a battery-powered EWI would be an awesome minimal setup.

    Hi!



    Thank you, Jethro, for your appreciation :-)

    The iPad idea is a nice one, no doubt, but the problem is that there is no Kontakt version running on an iPad - at least that´s what I was told by Native Instruments. As soon as they develop a Kontakt Player for iPad - no problem on our side... :-)

    While this really isn't what you are looking for it reminds me of an idea I have. My goal was to make my USB EWI wireless.



    What you can do is get the Ipad camera connection kit, which allows you to connect the EWI to the IPad. Get an app which will accept midi input and pass it through WiFi to a Mac running a midi server. (I think this should word on Windows too, but I'm not as sure). Kontakt can then use this as its midi input, and voila, you've got an overly complicated way of playing your EWI on your Ipad.



    My idea was to do this with the Iphone so I could be wireless on stage. The only catch is the iOS doesn't allow the camera connection kit on the Iphone yet. (it comes up with an error saying its not supported.) lame!! I suppose I could still do it with the ipad, but that's quite a large device to be wearing on stage!
