Wireless midi/usb

Post by Olaf »

Dear all,
Is there a possibility to connect a second keyboard to the Kronos via a wireless link?

Feed back is very much appreciated

I thought wireless USB transmitted data. They are using wi-fi

I don't have the time to look right now but I seem to remember that somebody here actually put a USB wireless connector inside their Kronos. Apparently there is a socket inside that allows you to do this.
You'll have to find the thread yourself and I don't know how well it worked. But best of luck!

I have used the CME WIDI - works flawlessly with great range, but I'm pretty sure it's discontinued. But note: I don't believe the USB works on the Kronos side, only the computer side. I think you have to go DIN midi on the Kronos side. Its been a while but I think I recall trying it and getting a garbled mess.

I have had a 88 piano keyboard from a brand aligned to Medeli (Vega) and saw some Medeli consumer keyboards ... the keyboard I had was bad (both in feel and had note hangups etc), the Medeli consumer keyboards I would categorize them as children toys. I would not rely on them on stage.
