How do I use Bluetooth MIDI?
You can connect OP-1 Field to other Bluetooth MIDI devices wirelessly for sending and receiving MIDI notes, clock, and control data.
Enabling Bluetooth MIDI
Hold SHIFT and press COM (the output key) to access communication settings. Press T1 for MIDI settings. Press the blue encoder to make OP-1 Field advertise as a Bluetooth LE MIDI device. It will appear in your other device's Bluetooth MIDI connection list.
Configuring MIDI Settings
While in the MIDI settings screen (T1):
- Blue encoder: Set MIDI channel (1-16)
- Ochre encoder: Configure clock sync behavior
- Gray encoder: Enable/disable MIDI notes
- Orange encoder: Enable/disable other MIDI messages like CC and modwheel
Connecting Devices
Once OP-1 Field is advertising, go to your computer, iPad, or other Bluetooth MIDI device and select "OP-1 Field" from its Bluetooth MIDI connections. The connection happens in your other device's settings, not on OP-1 Field itself.
Managing Connected Devices
Press T3 (LIST) in the COM screen to view and control connected USB and Bluetooth MIDI devices. This shows you what's currently connected and lets you manage multiple MIDI connections.
