Great bit of kit, but I’ve had pairings issues with it over the past 6 months. Yesterday I discovered why. I upgraded from iOS 17.1 to 17.5 and it immediately paired and became rock solid again.

comprei um e estou usando com o Meris Enzo, é absolutamente perfeito! para usar um controlador midi e utilizar os 16 bancos de preset a propria Meris nao tem um pedal unico, é preciso de um conversor que eles vendem por $89! m-wave salvou o dia!!

I paid $25 for mine. I use it with Loopy Pro. It's the best.

Hi, thanks for sharing your experience. I have a question: I'm looking for a controller to connect to a recorder on a PC, like Audacity, Ableton, etc. Is it possible to assign functions like record, pause, and new track to the buttons on the controller in such programs?

I'm using it with an called stagetraxx. I use it to scroll down and up half screen (A/B) and next song/previous song (C/D) How do I stop the E & F as I'm accidently pressing both footswitches apparently while performing music. Can I disable the E & F? How do I get to the screen you had to manipulate the different modes?

Great video, thank you! I have question maybe you can help me :) I have a Hotone Ampero 2 Stage and it has a built-in bluetooth control setting. I wonder if I can pair it over bluetooth. The thing is that I cannot try it by myself because m-vave is not available in my country. I can only order abroad and if it is not compatible with Ampero 2 Stage over bluetooth there is no option to refund the m-vave. Also the Ampero 2 Stage has a 3.5mm TRS midi in connector, it means I would not be able to use a standard TRS-MIDI cable if the bluetooth does not work. Do you think it can pair directly with Ampero 2 Stage over bluetooth?

Great review and deep dive. Thank you. Subbed. Do you think this would work with an Eventide H9? Also, did you hear back from M-Wave with regards to showing CC messages?

The issue I am having with is that it does not have a toggle mode where it can send either on or off signal depending on whether the effect is off or on.

How can I connect this Chocolate midi controller to the Yamaha MD-BT01 Bluetooth dongle?

can it be used as a simple footswitch? for example, switching from a clean channel to an overdrive channel on an analog amp?

Could you use 2 mvave chocolate simultaneously?

No, the best value is a Morningstar MC 6 Pro.
