Thanks Eddie. Included with the article is a quote from Noel:
“We’re happy to see Microsoft supporting the Bluetooth MIDI spec and exposing it to Windows developers through a simplified API. Using the new Win32 wrapper for the UWP MIDI API, we were able to prototype Bluetooth MIDI support very quickly. At Cakewalk we’re looking ahead to support wireless peripherals, so this is a very welcome addition from Microsoft.”

I for one, am happy to see Noel and the gang are so tight with Microsoft. I'm sure there are features on the horizon that I can't imagine today.

Indeed! The possibilities are very exciting. I've heard the latency is a little too much right now, but it can only get better. Cheers Eddie

Cakewalk has always had a close working relationship with Microsoft.
Ever wonder why so much of the old stuff was DXi?

i dont seem to be able to get sonar to recognize my bluetooth midi interface.
I thought the wrapper was supposed to take the winrt midi driver and expose it to legacy midi apps like sonar. sonar does not recognize the winrt midi ports in the midi device control panel...
Anyone been able to do this? I'd really like to know how you did it....
thanks

It doesn't automagically make the WinRT MIDI subsystem available to existing apps. Apps have to explicitly load the DLL and use it. In other words, it's for developers to use, not for end users to use.

Its not implemented yet.
Now that I'm composing on my ROLI Seaboard RISE 49, I'm really hoping MIDI over Bluetooth arrives soon. The ROLI apparently does it now with Mac pc's, although I haven't had an opportunity to test it on a Mac. Allen

I could not wait for Bluetooth MIDI support of SONAR, so I made utility software "MIDIberry" for Windows 10 Anniversary Update. With MIDIberry and loopMIDI, I can use Bluetooth MIDI device, for example QUICCO SOUND mi.1. Please search "MIDIberry" on Windows 10 store (I can't post URL).

Exactly how does one configure MIDIberry and loopMIDI in SONAR to allow for BT keyboard or BT windcontroller? Thanks for doing the work!

I'm actually a little disappointed that they're using Bluetooth for MIDI when there's other technology with lower latency and better all around specs like KleerNet that's gone almost completely ignored by the industry. Not sure if it matters as much for MIDI as for audio but lower latency is always better.

This proves Sonars the best DAW for windows and demonstrates a close technical relationship.
It would be nice if windows came up with a button like the "Flight mode" button(in notification panel) which would optimise the machine for better Audio/video use cutting out unnecessary background services.
I know the perfect solution to this is an DAW only machine but not always an option for most people.
