Using the Aerophone Pro with a Computer or Smartphone
If you use Bluetooth to wirelessly connect the Aerophone Pro to a smartphone, tablet, or other mobile device (subsequently referred to as
“smartphone”), you’ll be able to perform along with a song that’s being played back on the smartphone, and use the “Aerophone Pro Editor” app.
If you use the included USB cable to connect this unit to a computer, you’ll be able to transmit and receive MIDI and audio.

Setting Procedure
Pairing
In order to wirelessly connect the
Aerophone Pro to the smartphone via
Bluetooth, you need to “pair” the unit with
the smartphone so that the two devices can
authenticate with each other.
As an example, we explain how to make
settings for an iPhone.
The pairing process
Separate pairing is required for “Performing Along with a Song from
Your Smartphone” and for “Using the Aerophone Pro with an App.”
Note that these processes are different.
