Folks, just a quick question. Is it possible to attach a bluetooth usb dongle to the MPC One in order to be able to connect Bluetooth Midi equipment? I see that Inmusic did not want to include the Wifi/BT chip, but did they also restrict the software? Same basically goes for Wifi, even though that's not as important to me...

When you said software , I though a Mac/PC running the MPC software , unfortunately on MPC One bluetooth is disabled

There is no wifi/BT chip inside MPC One , and the OS disables external usb (not supported)
I don't know if via ssh (and unofficial MPC One image) a user has root access to disable wifi/BT blacklisting

Nahhhh They scaled down the Board inside the One. No Internal SD Card either

You would have to Re-engineer the outer Case in the Rear. More USB Inputs and Bigger 3.0 USB in different Placement.

But you could buy the CME Widi Master adapters. I have 2 pairs and they ROCK.

I can even add BT compatibility to my MPC 1000 and MPC 500 ;)

This looks awesome. Bringing this thread back from the depths because i think more should know about it. I got excited for a second thinking the ONE had BT since it actually does says in the 2.10 Manual MPC One has Bluetooth (see image below) when in reality it does not. Was totally second guessing myself and had to confirm here.
