Product Description

This is the i-MX1 Midi Interface for iPhone and iPad by Yamaha. If you own either of those two essential devices you'll already know how chock-full the App Store is with virtual synths, drum machines and some other even weirder music making software. The trouble is an iPhone or iPad isn't always the easiest surface to actually play on. The iPhone or iPad touch screen means no tactile feedback (not to mention no dynamics!) and that's essential for a great musical performance: enter the i-MX1 Midi Interface from Yamaha. The i-MX1 allows you to connect your iPhone or iPad with any MIDI in and out ports so you can send or receive midi to any MIDI equipped gear you have (and lets face it, every electronic instrument since the 1980s has a midi port! The possibilities are endless but here's some of our suggested uses for the Yamaha i-MX1:

  • Use a MIDI keyboard to play virtual synths on your iPad / iPhone
  • Use an arpegiator app to send arpeggios to a hardware synth
  • Use a MIDI control app to send midi controller information to a synth from your iPhone / iPad
  • Connect your iPhone / iPad to your DAW (using a MIDI to USB interface or MIDI i/o on your audio interface) and use your iPhone / iPad as a virtual softsynth
  • Anything else you can think of that uses MIDI! (drum machines, electronic drum kits....)

Here's what Yamaha say about the i-MX1 Midi Interface for iPhone/iPad

i-MX1 is a MIDI interface cable which enables iPad / iPhone to be connected to any MIDI instrument. There is no difficult setup, simply connect i-MX1 between iPad / iPhone and a MIDI instrument such as synthesizer, electronic drum kit, digital piano before launching the Apps from your iPad / iPhone. You can play and control the Apps sound using the real interface of instrument. There are also dedicated applications for Yamaha synthesizers which will expand the functions of your instrument. The Faders & XY Pad MIDI Control application controls your synthesizer's sounds by sending MIDI control change messages from the iPad. Keyboard Arp & Drum Pad is an application that transmits notes to the synthesizer. All the applications from Yamaha will increase the joy of playing instruments by combining the unique interface of you iPad / iPhone.

For those who have i-MX1 and Yamaha synthesizers, there are lots of applications that will expand the functions of your instrument. Each App can be easily used just by connecting the instrument and iPad / iPhone with i-MX1 cable. You can edit the sound of Motif XF or MOX using the large display of iPad. Also the additional functions such as drum pad or arpeggiater can be easily added to your synthesizers.

Play your instruments with the Core MIDI compliant Apps.

Your MIDI instruments will be expanded with all the Core MIDI compliant Apps on the market. For example, you can practice the piano songs using a digital piano and Notation App, record your drum pattern using an electronic drum kit and music production apps, or play a variety of sounds using synthesizers and virtual instrument apps. All these combinations can be realized in many ways by using i-MX1 and instruments.
