With this device, your set-up will be streamlined and your creativity will soar to new heights. The WM-1D is highly versatile, allowing you to wirelessly connect to keyboards, drum machines, and other hardware devices that have MIDI I/O. You can then communicate with any music-making application that supports MIDI integration, adjusting data sync, tempos, effects, and loops without the need for cables.

The WM-1D encourages a focused approach to recording and performing. By eliminating clutter, you can concentrate on creating excellent music. When used with the adapter, you can create music anywhere and in a compact set-up that looks great for live performances or filmed sessions. Once you experience the freedom of working wirelessly, you won’t want to go back to your old ways.
Roland understands the importance of low latency, especially in high-pressure situations like live performances. That’s why the WM-1 features proprietary wireless technology that ensures performances feel natural and responsive. Whether you’re in standard mode or fast mode, the WM-1D guarantees a smooth transfer speed. Fast mode is particularly useful for intricate parts with complex timings, as it offers a quicker transfer speed of 3ms.
The WM-1D is essential for Windows operating systems, as it simplifies set-up by plugging the dongle into a USB slot and connecting the WM-1 (not included) to your instrument or hardware. While the dongle is not necessary for Mac operating systems, as they can communicate using standard Bluetooth MIDI, it is recommended if you want to experience the benefits of fast mode.
