I can not get wireless midi to work.

MIDI Target Manufacturer(s): Meris

im having the hardest time getting anything to work.. i have all the meris pedals, but even just trying this on one pedal is not working. I put my Meris mercury7 set for Midi input on Channel 4.. i set mididesigner for channel 4 and everytime i go back its on channel 1. But even on TouchOsc it says its on channel 4 with no results. Im using the yamaha md bt01 wireless bluetooth adapter into a Meris i/o, into my Mercury 7

Need to search for posts on your BT adapter - BT sometimes can be tricky to set up initially

Found this on Sweetwater:

Works great, but non-obvious connection

This plug works great for using my Reface CS as a MIDI controller for my iPad synth apps. But, this does not connect to iOS devices like other Bluetooth products like speakers. You need to open up the synth app and go MIDI settings there and find Bluetooth MIDI choosing that you can finally get the synth w/MD-BT01talking to the app. Seems to work with no delay and minimal movement of knobs/sliders.

If you still cannot get it working, please provide a screen shot of the MDP2 connections page showing your connection status to the BT adapter.

JK I think this is missing a link? In our experience the BT01 is awesome and easy to set up.

Haven't heard back from him, so presume he got it sorted.

We'll call it resolved, it'll hide from the front QA page, and we're good. Thanks for helping again again again!
