Nektar WIDIFLEX USB Bluetooth MIDI Interface
The Nektar WIDIFLEX USB is a compact USB-A dongle that gives any computer a dedicated, ultra-low latency Bluetooth MIDI port. Plug it in and it appears as a class-compliant MIDI interface on Windows, macOS and Linux - no drivers, no setup - ready to connect your DAW wirelessly to WIDIFLEX adapters, Bluetooth MIDI controllers and hardware instruments with latency as low as 3ms.
A Dedicated Bluetooth MIDI Port for Your Computer
Built-in Bluetooth is inconsistent for MIDI on many systems, and on Windows and Linux it is largely unsupported. WIDIFLEX USB solves this: it is USB class compliant, shows up in your DAW as a standard MIDI port the moment it is plugged in, and handles all the Bluetooth MIDI processing itself. Built on Bluetooth 5 with advanced jitter optimisation and adaptive frequency handling, it maintains a stable, real-time wireless link at up to 20 metres of unobstructed range.
The Hub of a Wireless MIDI System
Acting as the central hub of a wireless setup, WIDIFLEX USB pairs automatically with Nektar's WIDIFLEX DIN adapters, other WIDI devices (including CME and Artesia Pro) and standard BLE MIDI controllers. Create fixed pairings or WIDI groups of up to 5 devices for complex routing between your DAW, controllers and hardware instruments, all managed - along with wireless firmware updates - by the free WIDI app for iOS and Android. Every MIDI message is transmitted, including MIDI Clock, SysEx and MPE, in both directions simultaneously.
