Essential MIDI tool
I bought this unit to act as a MIDI host. Before this unit - to play an analogue synth (DIN midi) with a USB midi keyboard I needed to connect them via Ableton + PC as a midi host. This unit replaces Ableton and the laptop in that scenario making "set up and play" much more straightforward. It's a small, well made unit. Downloading the software and updating the firmware was easy and quick, and then it was simply plug and play. Customer service was excellent - I am new to midi so I had a few newbie questions and they were very patient with me! If you use the 9v power supply rather than USB C 5v - be aware your 9v supply (like a guitar pedal supply) needs to be of reasonable quality, not expensive - just reasonable. When I used a very cheap one it introduced artefacts to the midi messages.

Cme the kings of widi
Haven't really set it up yet but build quality is good as CME are known for — even though it's plastic it feels well built, and I felt comfortable rating it since I'm already a user of their WIDI ecosystem. Their apps for configuration are great and work on mobile, they allow for complex routing, and the WIDI features keep getting constant firmware updates. WIDICore lets you talk to other WIDI Master or uHost devices, group them, decide per device whether to prioritize jitter or latency, and connectivity is almost instant. This is my 5th CME product and together with my Blokas Midihub it's a box of endless MIDI possibilities.

PERFECT
OMG AT LAST my Ipad as a midi controller is toally perfect and without latency. Also sending midi notes or sync info into the IPAD to use seqencers or drum machines. Perfect connections all around. Thank you so much.

Ok until you need a bit more
Configuration software is confusing and buggy (in modifier/translator part). Translator/Modifier feature is limited and buggy.

This is superb
I have this with bluetooth and the widi master and it works beatifully
I run on windows 10 and 11 a and I have never see such well behaved driver
The app is good but I did manage to confuse it sometimes and a reset to defaults was needed to clear the confusin . I aslo was not able to stop one midi device sending over midi over USB instead of my prefered Midi out port so I moved those devices to a seperate hub . In this configuuration ? I have never see such a bulletproof bit of kit ...ever !

Im a fan
I already have CME U6MIDI Pro which is prety much perfect, so I knew what to expect with this one and I was not dissapointed at all.
Works totaly as I expected and advertised. At this point I am a CME fan :)
