Gear Diary IK Announces the BlueBoard Bluetooth MIDI pedalboard for iPhone, iPad and Mac photo

As we head into the Winter NAMM show, we are starting to see some amazing new stuff – and today IK Multimedia is announcing the iRig BlueBoard, which is a Bluetooth MIDI pedalboard for iOS and Mac devices that support Bluetooth.

A couple of important things:
- Low power means you can use rechargeable AAA batteries for long life.
- Small size makes it easy to carry with you.
- Most importantly, it works with ALL apps. Other devices require specific apps, but so many of IK’s stuff plugs into just about everything – sure they want you to use their apps as well, but the interoperability really adds value for me.

The pricing is set at $99.99 and BlueBoard will be available in the second quarter. Head to the iRig BlueBoard site for more details!

I have loved technology for as long as I can remember - and have been a computer gamer since the PDP-10! Mobile Technology has played a major role in my life - I have used an electronic companion since the HP95LX more than 20 years ago, and have been a 'Laptop First' person since my Compaq LTE Lite 3/20 and Powerbook 170 back in 1991! As an avid gamer and gadget-junkie I was constantly asked for my opinions on new technology, which led to writing small blurbs ... and eventually becoming a reviewer many years ago. My family is my biggest priority in life, and they alternate between loving and tolerating my gaming and gadget hobbies ... but ultimately benefits from the addition of technology to our lives!
