Elevator Pitch

MIDIMesh

Product Description

MIDIMesh

MIDIMesh eliminates cables between MIDI controllers and Eurorack synthesizers through Network MIDI 2.0 (UDP) compliance. This wireless converter implements the official MIDI Association specification, delivering Universal MIDI Packet (UMP) transport over WiFi networks for seamless modular synthesizer integration.

Features:
– Dual-Mode Connectivity: Operates as a standalone access point or connects to existing networks, providing up to 45m wireless range with sub-5ms latency for professional performance.
– Precision CV Generation: Delivers two independent sets of 1V/octave pitch CV, gate, velocity, and modulation outputs with 16-bit PWM resolution, maintaining analog precision standards.


How It’s Innovative

MIDIMesh, an innovative implementation of the newly ratified Network MIDI 2.0 (UDP) specification, brings cutting-edge wireless MIDI technology to the analog Eurorack modular synthesizer community. It uniquely bridges the gap between modern digital MIDI 2.0 protocols and traditional analog CV/Gate systems, eliminating cables while maintaining professional-grade precision for modular synthesis.

Most Inspiring Use Cases

The most inspiring use of MIDIMesh is enabling collaborative live modular synthesis performances where multiple musicians can wirelessly control different voices and parameters of a shared Eurorack system from anywhere in the venue. Imagine a quartet where each performer uses tablets, controllers, or laptops to shape distinct sonic elements of a massive modular synthesizer, with one controlling rhythmic sequences, another manipulating harmonic progressions, and others crafting evolving textures and effects, all without a single cable connecting them to the instrument. This transforms modular synthesis from a solitary, stationary practice into a dynamic, collaborative art form where the physical boundaries between performers and instrument dissolve, creating entirely new possibilities for electronic music performance and composition.

Expansion Plans

We’ll create another version for a 5-pin MIDI connector for MIDI-to-MIDI connections. Imagine connecting common MIDI devices on the same WiFi network.

Commercialization

We’ll manufacture a small batch of MIDIMesh (5-10 pieces) and sell it on nanassound.com to test the market.
