I did a search but only found reference to the Yamaha MD-BT01, has anyone used the UD-BT01with an MOXF or similar model. If so any comments as to how well it works with IOS apps, e,g, Garage Band, ease of setting up.

Thanks in advance

Never used one, and I do not have a MOXF, but the Yamaha USA page shows the moxf in the example. http://usa.yamaha.com/products/musical-instruments/keyboards/accessories/interfaces/ud-bt01/?mode=model

Cheers Max, I hadn’t noticed the video, seems ideal as a way of connecting to my iPad, might be worth investing £42

I actually didn’t see the video. I was thinking, if the UD-BT01 connects via a USB-B (USB TO HOST port), as it shows, the MOXF keyboards have one. It should work with it fine, as midi is midi. The Motif XF also has a port, as do many other Yamaha keyboards.
You SHOULD be able to just connect the UD-BT01 to the USB To Host port on a keyboard, and then it should work fine. You profile does not indicate any specific keyboard, so I can only tell you the technical information.

I have MD-BT01 and it works really fine. Just have to set your instrument to MIDI and turn off. Plug BT, than turn on and start app that supports this device. I have only noticed when using with Rack XS that I could not use USB keyboard connected to iPad since after that I could not control Rack. Immediately after unplugging USB keyboard, I could select voices from VoiceEditor, for instance.

But, there is one really feature. MD-BT works with every (yes every!) Yamaha device that I have, not just those mentioned in compatibility list. I have checked with Motif ES and even with MU2000EX and it works without issues!!!!
I was really surprised when I have realized that I could play plugin boards installed in 15yr old MU2000EX wirelessly using on screen keyboard on iPad in Cubasis. Even more, I’m using USB only small keyboard (Korg microKEY 2) connected to iPad to play voices in MU2000EX (PLG-150VL, PLG150-DX and
PLG-150AN).

Can we use MD-BT to receive MIDI signal from IPAD?

Yes it works fine. I use the MOXF8 an IPAD Air2 and the App Setlistmaker to change the performances, Voices etc.....  Works perfectly!

Hello,
I have the same configuration Moxf + Ipad2 + MD-BT01 but cant’t detect it with bluetooth. It ‘s seem that MD-BT01 works with bluetooth 4 and Ipad 2 has bluetooth 2… Please, could you confirm.
Thanks
