Florian Bomers will show new BomeBox firmware at NAMM 2026

Bome just rolled into NAMM with fresh firmware, deeper MIDI tricks, and hardware that is selling faster than they can ship it.

What Bome is bringing to NAMM

Where the talks happen

• Bomers is also stepping onto the MIDI Stage right next door.
• Both sessions lean hard into advanced MIDI routing and next-gen transport ideas.

NAMM presentation rundown

• The focus stays on real-world MIDI 1.0 and MIDI 2.0 routing and processing.
• Friday, January 23, at 10.30 am PST shifts to MIDI 2.0 transports like BLE, Web MIDI, and remote transport management.
• That second session runs as a panel with the Transport working group.
