EV-1-WL Connection
Guide
(Connect with the GS-1)
This guide shows you how to pair the EV-1-WL
wirelessly to the GS-1 using BLE MIDI.
“Pairing” involves registering the MIDI device that
you want to use (making the devices recognize
each other) with the EV-1-WL.
Pairing the EV-1-WL with another compatible
device lets you control that device via MIDI from
the EV-1-WL.

What is “BLE MIDI”?
“BLE MIDI” is the technology used to transmit and
receive MIDI messages wirelessly via Bluetooth®
LE standard.
This is ocially known as “MIDI over Bluetooth Low
Energy.”

Connecting the EV-1-WL to
the GS-1
1. Turn both the GS-1 and the EV-1-WL on,
and place them near each other.
2. Press the [Bluetooth] button on the
GS-1.
The unit enters pairing mode, and the Bluetooth
indicator on the GS-1 rapidly blinks blue.
3. Make sure that the Bluetooth indicator
on the EV-1-WL is blinking white.
If the indicator is blinking blue or is lit up white,
operate the device as shown below to make the
indicator blink white.
Blinking blue Quickly press the [Bluetooth] button twice
on the EV-1-WL.
Lit white
The unit is connected to a dierent device.
Disconnect on the connected device side,
or long-press the [Bluetooth] button on
the EV-1-WL.

4. Press the [Bluetooth] button on the
EV-1-WL.
The Bluetooth indicator on the EV-1-WL rapidly
blinks white, and pairing begins.
The Bluetooth indicators on both units stop
blinking and remain lit when pairing is nished,
and now the GS-1 and EV-1-WL are paired.
If connected correctly, it will be in the following
state.
GS-1 Bluetooth indicator Lit blue
EV-1-WL Bluetooth indicator Lit white
* If the devices do not pair after one minute has
passed, pairing mode is automatically canceled.
* The units automatically connect next time they
are restarted.
The EV-1-WL remembers the information for the
last Bluetooth device to which it was connected.
When connecting to a dierent device after
connecting to the GS-1, or when turning o the
power while the Bluetooth indicator is blinking
white (not connected), or when doing a factory
reset of the EV-1-WL, the unit does not pair
automatically. In this case, you must start from step
1 to congure the settings.

The EV-1-WL remembers the information
for the last Bluetooth device to which
it was connected. When connecting to
a dierent device after connecting to
the GS-1, or when turning o the power
while the Bluetooth indicator is blinking
white (not connected), or when doing
a factory reset of the EV-1-WL, the unit
does not pair automatically. In this case,
you must start from step 1 to congure
the settings.
* The GS-1 and EV-1-WL are connected
automatically next time they are restarted. To
connect the GS-1 Editor you must perform steps
5 and 6 each time.
* If the devices do not pair after one minute has
passed, pairing mode is automatically canceled.
