Ultimate Stroker Coming Soon!
Will it connect with a Bluetooth dongle?
Melody's control will be via BLE, which will work in parallel with WiFi and you can simply disable BLE in the device settings if you don't need it.This will all be described in the API and SDK (BLE SDK is a smaller version of WiFi SDK. WiFi SDK has more methods), a little patience and we'll release a status update soon, but I'll say it straight - things are going very cool!
ToyboyPM i dont have wifi i use a hardline. will it come with a dongle? am i out of luck? :[
i dont use a cell phone or wifi, Is it going to be a solution for people like me?
@ToyboyPM you seem to be the one to talk to about this ... concerning the BT connection on your Melody device, I have some feedback as I have tested the Keon & Handy's BT alot.
The Handy - WiFi works well, when its not "Disconnecting", which seems to happen at least once every time I try to use it. This is why I prefer BT, but the experience of the scripts seems to be much less accurate (missing strokes every few seconds) via BT on the Handy.
The Keon - BT direct connection on Q3 via DeoVR app works ok, but again the experience of the scripts seems to be much less accurate (missing strokes every few seconds).
The best BT Keon experience by far is to connect via the Haptics Connect App via phone app. This gives perfectly synced scripts with no missing strokes when paired with the Q3.
Also, as a side issue, the Keon connects to local scripts via BT with Heresphere with perfect playback... so not sure if the Heresphere dev is using different BT connection or what.
Back to the new Melody, wifi is great... when it works. But there are just too many variables to ever get a foolproof device via wifi.
Please try to make the direct BT connection on the Q3 an awesome experience.
Thx
I will say if the connection misses strokes then I won't use it. It will basically be the same thing as a Handy but worse. It will flop on it's face.
This better work well or nobody is going to buy it after the first people say it misses strokes.
I hope its figured out before selling it. I want to like it.
renstimpy11 thx. We have put extra effort in connectivity. You should enjoy super strong wifi confection with no unnecessary interruptions
renstimpy11 Thank you From my personal experience, everything is smoother and more accurate with WiFi, but with BT it's easier and faster to connect. In addition to what @doublevr said, we are also putting extra effort into the connection logic so that there is logic behind the quality of the connection, where you just need to press a button and rock on!
But I took note of what you're talking about, it's very valuable to us! If you have more ideas or thoughts, feel free to post in the thread or to me in direct message.
doublevr Just tried the Handy with wifi connection and had a hour+ session with no disconnects! So progress has been made .
Please make sure the Melody has great BT with the Q3 as well as wifi
Keep up the good work
He goes out when the melody
