Hi, has anyone tried connecting to a cme widi jack using the akai force’s built in Bluetooth midi connectivity? I am planning out a change to some of my midi gear to clear out cables and was wondering if this even worked?

I have not.

But I have in the past toyed with MIDI over Bluetooth, and the latency was reliably terrible.

I feel your pain, but the best solution that I have found is to use USB MIDI where possible, because that at least reduces the cable count. I like the USB cables with the LEDs in the plugs, because that tends to make debugging easier.

I don't know your studio setup, but maybe what you want is better cable management? I recommend those velcro cable ties. They make a huge difference.
