MidiPad 2

I had been searching around for an app just like this-- a MIDI pad I could edit on the iPad itself. I was using TouchOSC before but didn't like how you had to edit your layouts on the computer. And Apple's own Logic Remote was causing HUGE latency (often more than 5 seconds) when I used it with Mainstage, a program I use almost every day. I play keyboard for local theater and use MidiPad mostly to trigger program changes and some SFX/percussion (sending the MIDI information to my Mac). It works perfect for this. Strangely, Codelle doesn't tell you how to connect the app to your setup. I was hoping their website would at least provide some links, but as of now, it does not. So if you're like me and want this app to interface with software on your Mac, open the program "Audio MIDI Setup" then under Help, search for and open the Help Topic "Share MIDI information over a network." The app takes a little bit to customize the layout and pads as you'd like. The workflow here could be improved if Codelle updates the app to have things like click&drag options for adjusting the layout of the pads, a copy&paste or duplicate function, and the ability to set parameters via something besides a little touch bar. Anyways, setting it up isn't so bad and once it's there it's very slick and reliable. Recommended.

Worked for my needs. I used it to Control a Yamaha Ql5 and a Yamaha QL1 to turn on and off 55 microphones in a conference setting. Worked flawlessly. I only wish you could copy and paste a page to edit a new layout without having to start from scratch each time.

This app is exactly what I needed. I play guitar in live settings with various groups. I needed a simple midi app, such as this, to control some midi pedals I have. This app allows me to instantly access/recall presets or make whatever Commands right on the spot. I love that each Page can be customized to each song I do. Some updates I would love to see is -to have the option to categorize the “Pages” (like to group them into different folders) -to be able to order the “Pages”, such as in a Set List order, so the next page can easily and quickly be accessed. -to be able to duplicate “Pages” for a quicker setup. Thank you for this great app!

I use each pad to send multiple commands to a guitar synth and to a keyboard. I want to copy and paste from one pad to the next and just change one parameter. No answer from the developers. Is it being supported? Last release from a year ago. Could be fantastic if it could send system messages too.

response required

Complete waste of time and money. Sounds so promising but zero documentation, unrecognized by Mac, and developer does not respond to any messages through their website or Facebook pages (even being patient and waiting a couple weeks!). Look elsewhere and let my wasted money help you avoid the trouble. Hope they’re not just trying to make a buck off real musicians, but if they’re genuine, they need to prove it with help docs and support.
