Aratohu Tatūnga
Follow these steps to set up your WIDI Jack for wireless MIDI connectivity.
1. Powering the WIDI Jack
The WIDI Jack can be powered in two ways:
- Via MIDI Out: Connect the WIDI Jack to the MIDI OUT port of your MIDI device using an appropriate TRS/DIN MIDI cable (sold separately). The WIDI Jack draws power directly from the MIDI OUT port.
- External USB-C Power: If your MIDI device does not provide power via its MIDI OUT port, or if you prefer external power, connect a USB-C cable to the WIDI Jack's USB-C port and plug it into a USB power bank or power adapter.

2. Connecting to MIDI Devices
The WIDI Jack features 2.5mm TRS jacks for MIDI IN/OUT. Ensure you use the correct TRS/DIN MIDI cables for your specific device. Optional cables for various TRS/DIN MIDI types are sold separately.
3. Initial Pairing and WIDI App
For optimal performance and to access advanced features, it is highly recommended to download and install the WIDI App on your iOS or Android device. The app facilitates firmware updates and provides step-by-step pairing instructions.
Important: General Bluetooth pairing from your device's system settings will not work for Bluetooth MIDI. Always use the WIDI App or follow specific pairing instructions provided by CME for proper connection.
