BBFF 2.0 Beta (for BB 2.0)

Hi everyone

I have been working on updating the BBFF app with support for the BeatBuddy 2. With that came a bunch of other updates that make the app also worthy of a 2.0

  • The app works with BB 1 and 2 pedals
  • You need to have a Bluetooth MIDI dongle (and adapter with BB1) for it to be able to communicate with your pedal.

If you’re on iOS, you can join the beta test using TestFlight at Join the BBFF:BeatBuddy Friends Forever beta - TestFlight - Apple
The app doesn’t have a trial version so if you’ve ever wanted to try before you buy, this is also a good opportunity to see what all the fuss is about :wink:

@andrew What is a midi dongle? I’m not familiar with that. I just paid for BBFF a minute ago. How do I work this BBFF site? Any help appreciated.

Hi @RandyLCox I’ve replied to your email.

Dongle probably wasn’t the best word but I needed to distinguish from the BB1 adapter.
The Beat Buddy supports MIDI via cable and most phones support MIDI via Bluetooth. You need a device that can convert MIDI cable to MIDI bluetooth so the BeatBuddy and Phone can communicate with each other.
Two popular ones are the Yamaha MD-BT1 and the WIDI Master
