IK Multimedia iRig BlueBoard Bluetooth LE MIDI Pedalboard Controller (1141086)

The IK Multimedia iRig BlueBoard pedalboard delivers wireless Bluetooth MIDI control for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and compatible music apps from the floor. It helps players switch presets, toggle effects, and control app parameters without dealing with cables.

Wireless control for iOS and Mac music apps

This pedalboard connects to an iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, or Mac via Bluetooth and sends control signals that compatible apps convert into MIDI messages. It supports Apple Bluetooth LE MIDI for plug-and-play use with MIDI-compatible apps on iOS and macOS.

• Bluetooth MIDI pedalboard with up to 10 m (32.8 ft) range
• Works with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad that support Bluetooth 4.0
• Works with Mac computers that support Bluetooth 4.0 / Bluetooth Low Energy

Flexible MIDI modes for different workflows

It offers multiple operating modes, therefore the same four buttons can send different types of MIDI control depending on the app and use case. One mode sends MIDI note on/off messages, and another mode sends MIDI CC on/off messages for stompbox-style effect control.

• Sends MIDI note on/off messages
• Sends MIDI Control Change (MIDI CC) on/off messages
• Can send MIDI Program Change and Control Change

Direct integration with AmpliTube

The unit works with AmpliTube, and setup only requires selecting the device within the BlueBoard section in the app. It includes PRESET mode, DIRECT FX mode for individual parameters like switches and knobs, plus Global Controls for tasks like enabling the tuner, changing banks and presets, and controlling the recorder.

• PRESET mode for browsing presets
• DIRECT FX mode for controlling individual parameters
• Global Controls for tuner, bank and preset changes, and recorder control

Stage-friendly layout with clear visual feedback

Four soft-touch, backlit control pads sit on a rugged, stage-ready chassis. Each pad includes an additional LED that lights when active, so it stays easy to see what controls are in use in dark spaces.

• 4 assignable backlit switches
• Per-pad active-status LED indicator
• Rugged chassis suited for stage use

Expand with external pedals and keep device ports free

Two TRS expansion connectors let players add continuous controllers such as wah or volume-style pedals for added control and versatility (sold separately). Because it connects over Bluetooth, the device’s 30-pin, Lightning, and mini-jack ports remain available for other accessories (sold separately).

• 2 x 1/4" inputs for expression pedals or switches (sold separately)
• Keeps mobile device ports free for other accessories (sold separately)

Compact, battery-powered operation

It runs on four standard AAA batteries, making it simple to power without a dedicated supply. The low-profile design measures 9.1 in (23 cm) wide, and it stays small enough to fit in a laptop bag.

• Powered by 4 AAA batteries
• 9.1 in (23 cm) width
• Compact size for easy transport
