Software Features and Description

1. On screen, you have access to each of the pads -- map the knobs and sliders of your synth apps to MIDI CC messages, and then use Sidecar to adjust these sliders as you play.

2. Each MIDI destination has ten configurable pads, which can be assigned to chords, single notes, a program change message, or a controller change message.

3. Toggle on support for the external keyboard, and you can switch between the ten MIDI destinations quickly (using the keys in the QWERTY row).

4. Sidecar turns your ordinary QWERTY keyboard into a powerful MIDI controller.

5. Because Sidecar operates in slide-over and side-by-side mode on the iPad, you can use your physical keyboard with any MIDI app, even if the other app is running in the background.

6. If you have an external MIDI controller, you can have it send MIDI events to Sidecar -- and these will be relayed to any of the ten MIDI destinations you select.

7. Because Sidecar sends MIDI messages, it can be used to control background synthesizers, sequencers, and effects apps.

8. The lower part of the keyboard is mapped piano-style, letting you play melodies with the physical keys -- much easier to keep your fingers in the right place, and to get the notes you want.

9. Sidecar also supports the iON iCade game controller, mapping the buttons of the iCade to the pads.

10. The two lowest rows of keys are mapped as a standard piano keyboard, providing a musical play surface with an ordinary text keyboard.

11. Each pad can play a specific note, a chord, generate a program change message, or send a control code.

  • Right spot, right time

    By Slaphappygrandpappy (Pcmac user)

    It's always a pleasure when app developers release apps that reflect the "thing I have in my head". Well, this app not only solves the "Bluetooth only works in the foreground" problem when working with multiple music creation apps, but it does it exactly the way I pictured it in my head. If you have a BT controller and use multiple apps, the app will likely make your life a whole lot easier! As a plus, the side panel design is handy for extra MIDI control pads even outside the Bluetooth keyboard scenario.
  • Genius

    By Sattech27 (Pcmac user)

    Very good use for the slide over feature. This should open the door for many other music app developers to exploit! SBD has a long history of creative approaches, and this app is no exception.
  • Of course

    By a e r o c (Pcmac user)

    Continuing the excellence.
