Connect your pedal

StajNano talks to your pedal over Bluetooth Low Energy. The first connection takes less than a minute.

Before you start

First connection

  1. Open StajNano. The first screen says Tap to search.
  2. Tap the card. StajNano looks for pedals nearby. Allow Bluetooth when your phone asks.
  3. Tap your pedal in the list. Every pedal has the same Bluetooth name, so each row shows its signal strength instead: a stronger number (closer to zero) normally means the nearer pedal.
  4. Wait a moment. The logo screen reads your presets and the pedal’s state, then the control page appears.
Permissions. iPhone and iPad ask for Bluetooth access. Android 12 and later ask for “Nearby devices”. On Android 11 and older the system asks for “Location” because it requires that for any Bluetooth search; StajNano does not read your location.

Connect by itself next time

With the pedal connected, open Options (the gear on the control page) and switch Auto-connect to On. StajNano remembers that pedal. From then on, whenever the app is in front, it starts searching by itself and connects to a remembered pedal half a second after it hears it, even when somebody else’s pedal is nearer. Nothing else is ever connected by itself.

If something does not work

The pedal is not found

Check that the pedal is on and that no other device is connected to it. Wait a few seconds and search again: on iPhone and iPad the very first search after opening the app sometimes misses the pedal and the second one finds it. If several searches find nothing, put the pedal in its Bluetooth pairing mode for a moment and search again.

It connects, but the presets do not load

Close StajNano completely and open it again. If it keeps happening, switch the pedal off and on, and if that does not help, switch Bluetooth off and on in your phone or tablet.

I switched the pedal off and on

StajNano goes back to the first screen. Tap the card to search again, or, with Auto-connect on, simply wait: it searches by itself and connects when the pedal is back.

I want to use a Bluetooth foot pedal as well

Open Options, switch BT Pedal to On and pick your foot pedal on the page that opens. See the MIDI reference for what each message does.
