Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) launched in

2010 upping the game for power efﬁcient

localised wireless remote control and

hopefully seeing off at least some of

those unsightly leads. It’s taken a while

for compatible peripherals to appear but

there are now some pretty tasty options

to both retroﬁt and replace your existing

MIDI controllers

Group Test | Reviews Korg’s MicroKey keyboards add Bluetooth LE support across all four variants (25, 37, 49 and 61 key). Korg’s free app, Bluetooth MIDI Connect for iOS and OS X, helps you keep track of connected devices. Windows 8.1 and 10 users can download Korg’s BLE-MIDI Driver. MicroKey Air needs two AA batteries but also retains USB support, and you’ll find an assignable 1/4-inch foot pedal jack. A doddle to set up and use. www.korg.
