No Android Wired MIDI?

[danktle]

I don't seem to see how to do this. Or, at least, I haven't had it work yet. I definitely have midi out happening from TouchDAW, so it's not "enabling the USB host" or anything along those lines. I have a USB OTG connector, Samsung Note 4 (and multiple other devices that receive midi input just fine), and an iConnect USB MIDI hub. I run Lemur no problem over WiFi. I can control external MIDI gear hooked up to my computer. Lemur does everything I want when wireless.

But I don't want wireless.

I want 1 tablet, 1 cable going out, and 1 tone module receiving midi directly from the tablet.

That's it.

No computers.

No WiFi routers.

I am aware that the iPad will do this. I am not paying $400-500 for a tablet to serve one purpose. I can buy any number of hardware controllers for far less than that, and program them to do whatever I want. I already have several. I have better layouts that I built myself in Lemur. It only works when I have a computer and router running. I don't want to set 5 things up just to make music. I want a controller and a sound generator. I don't want to hook up an entire Mac and make sure this, that, or the other program is running first. I don't want a Windows laptop in order to hook a wireless router to it to control something 8 inches away from the tablet.

I can talk to Caustic by simply hooking up any controller to my phone and playing with just a cable and an OTG connector. It works fine. With TouchDAW I can hook my phone up to a cheap Casio keyboard with the iConnect, and if I play notes on the android screen, I hear notes on the tone module. I didn't miss some setting. It seems other programs generate MIDI out just fine with only an OTG connector and a class compliant MIDI adapter. I don't need to dive into menus and get it. I hook it up and it does what you hope it will on the first try.

Why doesn't Lemur do this? I have to be missing something...

Lemur does do this.
Check the Lemur wiki.

It would seem that USB Class compliant MIDI adapters are only support on Lemur for IOS.

Going to "up vote" the request for new features in Android / USB Class compliant MIDI adapters
