![]() ![]() ![]() it's maybe a stupid question and was answered here several times but how can i connect kyma control on my ipad with kyma/paca? my paca is connected to the local network via ethernet cable. IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() I know there are ways without it but I suggest getting Delora's MidiConnect. It make all my problems go away plus gave me the virtual midi ports for easy integration with my DAW. I *think* that without MidiConnect, you connect the Pacarana to your wireless router and then connect the iPad to the same router and Kyma Control should just see it automatically.

![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks, Keph! Yes, connecting the Paca to a wireless router and then connecting the iPad to that same wireless network is the way to go. OR you can use Delora's PacaConnect (which let's you use the built-in Airport wireless network on your Macintosh to set up a local wireless network). IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() connecting paca and ipad to the same wireless is exactly what I've done but unfortunately i can't link them in kyma. is there any parameter changing required in kyma control? [This message has been edited by aries (edited 05 December 2010).] IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() No parameter changes are required in Kyma; everything just maps automatically. Just to confirm, when you look at Settings>Wi-fi on the iPad, do you see the wireless network name? Then when you go to Configuration in Kyma Control, do you see "Beslime-###" under Paca(rana) Hosts? In Kyma Control, does the Configure tab have a red (!) next to it? That would indicate that it is not connecting. On the front panel of the Paca, select Help, then scroll all the way to the right to see the IP address; does it show an IP address? When you play a Sound that has a Virtual control surface, you should see the same control surface on the VCS tab of Kyma Control.

![]() ![]() ![]() quote: yes, it is visible under paca hosts quote: yes, that is true. the red ! is on the configure tab quote: yes, it's the same ip (without the last number behind the ( : ) ) like in kyma control (paca hosts) quote: no, there are no vc-surfaces on the ipad. that means ipads monitor is black but i can send some presets to kyma.

![]() ![]() ![]() Are you running Kyma X.77? How far is your wireless router from your iPad? What is the name of the router? IP: Logged |
aries Member |
![]() ![]() ![]() yes, i'm running 6.77f2 and my wi-fi router is about 5 m from the ipad away. i've this one: http://www.alice-wiki.de/Alice_Modem_1121_WLAN sorry, its in german [This message has been edited by aries (edited 06 December 2010).] IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() What is the brand of the router? Could you please try substituting another Ethernet cable between Paca and router (in case the current cable is bad)? Is there a lot of traffic on the wireless router? Lots of other people using it? Streaming video at the same time? Does the router allow you the possibility of changing channels by hand? Is it possible that your neighbors' Wi-fi could be interfering? Or do you have a wireless telephone nearby (not a mobile phone, but one of those portable handsets; some of the older ones are at a frequency that interferes with Wi-fi). Or is there a microwave oven in use nearby? Or, possibly, a wireless mic? Anything else that might be causing interference?

![]() ![]() ![]() Sorry that I was editing my previous post while you were answering at the same time(!) Another test: Are you able to access the Internet from your iPad through the same wireless router? IP: Logged |
aries Member |
![]() ![]() ![]() yes, it's no problem to connect to the internet via the router IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() It sounds like the connection is being made, but a lot of packets are being dropped. This suggests the possibility of radio interference (any possibilities?) Or a faulty connection (bad cable) between the Paca and the router. [This message has been edited by SSC (edited 06 December 2010).] IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() i don't imagine connection between paca and router is interrupted because the cable is new. maybe my router is incompatible? is there any other possibility to connect the devices w/o using an adaptor application? IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() Even a new cable could have a flaw. If you have another Ethernet cable around, it is definitely worth giving it a try. Is there a lot of traffic on the wireless router? Lots of other people using it? Streaming video at the same time? Does the router allow you the possibility of changing its frequency by hand? Is it possible that your neighbors' Wi-fi could be interfering? Do you have a wireless telephone nearby (not a mobile phone, but one of those portable handsets; some of the older ones are at a frequency that interferes with Wi-fi). Is there a microwave oven in use nearby? Or, possibly, a wireless mic? Anything other kind of wireless device that might be causing interference? IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() Yes, it was problem with the ethernet cable. I'll be damned the cable was a new one. Thank you for your help. IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() because of the complexity of a vcs (e.g. an output 8 with 8 instruments) it would be fine if i could switch between the instruments via multilevel vcs -menu in kyma control. can that be done? IP: Logged |
SSC Administrator |
![]() ![]() ![]() Not yet. (You could have it switch in the Timeline using Markers, if you know when you would want it to switch, or you could send a MIDI Program Change message if you have a way of sending those). IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() it's really strange, everytime I start kyma control on the ipad apple logic pro reports a osc port issue. that means logic points out "beslime 214 and the ipad use the same osc port 8000" I've tried to disable some logic ports in little snitch but w/o success. IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() It should not be a problem that the two devices are using the same port number, since they have different IP addresses. IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() I get the same error message in Logic Pro. I ignore it - the connection works fine. IP: Logged |
