I'd like to figure out how to connect my Yamaha MIDI keyboard to my Asus tf101 tablet for recording via hardwired USB.
I've scoured the web looking for an app or solution to this and have come up generally blank, I've tried all the free midi controller apps, but they only seem to support Wifi or Bluetooth, which my keyboard is unable to do.
I'd like to eliminate my computer as a middleman (If I'm at my computer I'd just use that) and be able to use my tablet to record on the go!
Any ideas/thoughts/help/wisdom/proverbs/ninjas would be greatly appreciated
Device Info:
ASUS Transformer tf101 running
ICS 4.0.3 Rooted
I have the dock with 2 USB 2.0 ports that I am connecting to the connecter with.
Cable:
Amazon: USB MIDI Input Output Cable Converter PC Notebook
Works fine on computer and no issues so far via usb.
Thanks!

Any Ideas?

Hi, I have a solution for You.
Download Grand Piano Pro from google play store works perfectly.
Download Floating Browser if You want to do something on top of the app.
I'm using worlde panda 61 midi keyboard via usb on my Transformer Prime
Yep AFAIK, Grand Piano and the Organ app from the same developer are the only 2 apps that supports USB Midi at the moment.
I made a quick video to show it working here

There is also USB Midi Monitor, but that is just a utility rather than an instrument or recorder.
I am really keen for more apps to come out so we can record using a USB midi controller.
Does anyone know any more apps that support USB Midi devices?
thanks,
Rich
I presume this should also work if I'm connecting my keyboard via a MIDI to USB converter then to the phone?
Thanks

If it's a standard MIDI device (ie. if you can plug it into a Windows or Mac machine and it shows up as a midi controller without needing to install any special drivers) then it should work.
Excellent thanks. I've purchased the otg cable, I'll report back.
Thanks.

Hi!
My cable arrived and I had a go at connecting up my midi keyboard. After some time I realised that the phone appeared not to be putting enough power through to the midi-usb converter that I use on my PC usually (plug and play), such that the led indicator was not lighting. I bought Grand Piano and Midi Monitor, both showed no response. When I open Midi Monitor there is a pop up that says, no MIDI device detected.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
You could try putting a powered USB hub in between the midi-usb converter and the OTG cable.
That kind of takes away the portability aspect though as you'll be tied to a power point.
But if you have one available, you could at least confirm if that is the issue.
If that does solve the issue, you could try to power the USB hub with a portable power pack... but I'm not sure i that would work...
Thank you thank you for the app listing, Gpp works for midi detection, and is pretty much what I was looking for. It didn't need any power on my tf101. I'll be sure to hit that thanks button at midnight x)
I have a TF300T and a Yamaha keyboard that I connect to my computer via USB (no drivers needed).
I don't have the keyboard for the tablet so I was thinking about buying the USB OTG adapter and connect the piano directly. Is this possible? Anyone has the USB OTG adapter and tried this?
Thanks.

Hello!
I have 3 Samsung devices: GT-I9000, GT-I9100, GT-I9505.
All devices are paired with my car via Bluetooth.
I can use all devices to make phone call and to play music.
However, with the device GT-I9100 the media data is not displayed in the car audio device but with the other devices this works.
My conclusion is that the root cause must be related to the GT-I9100 and not related to the car BT device.
So, the question is:
What is causing the failure of transmitting music data from GT-I9100 to car audio device?
To be fair, I would only compare the GT-I9100 with the older device GT-I9000.
All BT settings are identical.
All ROMs are identical (CM11 M9).
Is there a specific BT modul used in GT-I9100 that cannot work?
Means, is the hardware different compared to GT-I9000?
Or is a different BT driver used?

Hye i just wanna ask. Anyone here success playing audio using usb on S3 i9300 inside the car? My car is the latest suzuki swift, when i connect my s3 using usb, the display on my car audio shows error. Anyone here successfully connect our s3 to play mp3 files on the car? Any workaround or any apps needed? Need help.
If you are rooted you can flash boeffla kernel and use ums (universal mass storage) option this should help the car detect the phone as a flash drive. Ps there are apps on the play store to enable ums not sure which will work with s3. But my recommendation is to use boeffla.
Nevermind. I found this trick after 3 hours posting my question. Anyway. Thanks for your reply.
May I please know what trick did you do? I am having the same problem. Just bought Suzuki swift days ago and my samsung phone (Galaxy grand 2) wont play. it will only show "usb error 1'. Please help.
Hi guys,
I have a problem. I saw on youtube a guy that plugs his midi keyboard into Nexus 7 via OTG.
I've tried same thing but it didn't work for me, got no sound when I plugged in the keyboard.
Just sound disappear from speakers, like I plugged in the headphones.
So, well, I'm on 4.4.2, using OTG cable from my sister tablet and the keyboard is Alesis Q49.
Any idea why that happens?
Hello,
I have a question to the following scenario:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 which is connected via MHL / HDMI to my TV. I use the SkyGo-App on my Galaxy to watch soccer on my TV.
But sometimes I want/have to watch and take/get a call simultaneously. Problem is, as soon as I plug in my bluetooth-headset, the output for all sound is the headset.
Is there any possibility or an app to control the output between HDMI and bluetooth in general?
Thank you very much!
Greetings ENFI
