Excellent video. I am not a big fan of Apple, but the synths you can get on an ipad are quite decent and the connectivity is truly simple.
Had been searching for a tutorial and i got exactly the right one.This was really useful. Thanks a lot
Great. You did a good job for almost everyone here! I cannot think of any set-up that you did not come around. Thanks a lot :-)
Thanks for the clear demonstration. I was thinking of buying a ipad it it had this capability and you clearly demonstrating how easy it is. Thanks
Just started thinking about using the ipad and your video basically answered a ton of questions I was having. Thanks so much! :)
Great demo! Thanks for sharing!
Great video!!! so many questions answered in just one big explanation. Thanks for posting this
Bro thank you so much for uploading this video this has given me a better understanding on midi connections. Thank you.
Thank You for the very practical tutorial. Greetings from Finland !
VERY HELPFUL! Thank you Sir.
The way you present it, its very good...
Thank you so much for this tutorial video. It gives me so much insight. I'm just the biginner trying to learn how to connect and play with midi keyboard. Recently I bought Panda 61 key midi Keyboard and I have no idea how to connect it and what type of connector is needed to plug in in my Ipad. Now I have learned from this video, I will try and see and if it doesn't work I'll let you know. Thank you onceagain.
Really useful and needed at the moment , cheers for posting :)
Very useful indeed. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks man! This helps a lot of folks. Nice work.
Thanks for posting this. Very well done.
Thanks for sharing mate, this was exactly what I was looking for... :)
No worys, i figuered it out. Thank you for replying so fast, you the best
Awesome stuff. Could you do a video on how to get the sounds into Reason or Ableton from this stage ? Many thanks.
I use a Roland Duo-Capture 2EX for my iPad and PC, and I recommend it very highly. It works perfectly for both MIDI and audio.
Thank you for this! I'm going to get a connector and use it to link garage band with my Roland EP 7 II
Thank you man, incredibly informative video.
Thanks for the video very helpful
Thank you for this. Now I know what little dongle I was missing- the camera connection kit!
Thank you extreme useful and I can now use my iPad which is collecting dust to create so much more new sounds awesome stuff thank you for sharing.
Awesome video, thanks for putting this up.
Great video! Thank you for sharing
You do some really cool playing on those teeny keyboards. I prefer full sized keys, but do have one small Yamaha SHS-10R, which has really cool auto accompaniment algorithms in it.
Awesome tutorial! Help a ton!
Awesome tutorial! Thanks for making the vid. :)
Thank you friend! Cool and useful video!
Thank you, for this graet work.
Great Vid. Keep em' coming

I use a keystation Pro 88 with my iPad Pro. It works great!!! Great video.
That’s a Great video thanks. What puzzles me now tho, is how you’re getting the sound into your mixer/amp if the lightning connector is used by the midi. Thanks
Thanks Doug your the man
cheers man. Super simple setup for a mini rig. Cheers =)
Informative video. Thank you.
I've just bought an iPad to learn to use loopy pro and am looking for the best midi keyboard for my needs but most don't mention working with iPads, just Mac and windows so it's a bit confusing.
Any chance of a new video with newer controllers mentioned like the Arturia Keylab essential mk3 which I was considering but Arturia don't mention it working with iPads .
Thank you for this video!
good video thanks for the help!
Thank you for great and simple explenations. I wonder, how can I avoid draining my Ipad4 of battery when I hook it up to my keyboard?
thanks for this vid and all the others.
One of *the* most useful and instructive vids on CZcams, well done Doug!
Great demo - Thanks. Any more on midi out into a synth from ipad apps? The reverse or opposite side of midi arrangement to your demo?
I have an old E-MU [creative] that I had to power it and use the midi connector going to a irig [the first on]. Reason the iPad kept giving me the device uses too much power. But I love it because of the 16 knobs and has a weighted keys.
Thanks it really helped
Super tuto bravo cool !!!!
this is great! how can I use this for live gigs through a keyboard amp?
Huge! Thanks a lot!
Thanks, all connected now. Live loops on g band are great. I can now play an instrument via midi okay but I can’t seem to play an instrument and view / control live loops at same time. Many thanks if you have any pointers to that.
TY ...I'll try this sometime.
This is great! Is this all usable during a live show for backing tracks and sounds?
Great Video
Thank you so much.
Thanks!
Hey that was great. Even though there was repetition, it was needed in order to demystify the different (but same!) set ups. Before I buy a midi controller I wanted to demystify how it’s done and you did that! Thanks a bunch, I am now a confidant buyer thanks to you! Much appreciated!
I know im asking randomly but does any of you know of a method to get back into an Instagram account?
I somehow lost my account password. I would love any help you can offer me
@Eden Jaxon Instablaster :)
@Bennett Tobias Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Bennett Tobias it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much, you really help me out :D
@Eden Jaxon Glad I could help :D
Excellent!
Very Good Video.
Nice vid man
Thanks for this. Very interesting! Q: since the output of the iPad is through a 3.5mm jack, does that limit/affect the quality of the audio you can output from it?
Damn helpful video!!! IOS update just knocked out my Motif USB midi connection. Irig is the way to go I guess.
phanjazm j so I can’t do this anymore??
very useful thank’s so much :-)
THANKYOU x
Or, these days one could use the Akai lpk 25 wireless, and lose the wires altogether. I’ve yet to find an app that this baby doesn’t recognize. I have a musical go-bag that contains the the lpk 25, my iPad, a wireless speaker & little else eise. It’s perfect for getting outdoors to get inspired by the changing seasons. Great video once again Doug!
Thanks for this great video! But I'm gonna hold on anything by Korg - had an absolutely nightmare with the NanoStudio!
Great and helpful video! I've got an Ipad air and I want to use it with my band. I want to buy a medium size controller ( max 49 keys). One I like very much is Alesis VI49, but Alesis support can't tell me if I could use it with the ipad! On the other hand, I like Novation Launchkey, and someone recomended me the Roland A300 pro. This one i s perfect for the size, but I prefer to have 16 pads and Alesis Keys look better. Any advice about what to choose? The main intention is simple chords and melodies, and launch effects from it.
I know for sure I will need teh camera connectiion kit. But should I get more gear with these controllers? Is it mandatory to get out the sound from the headphones output? Is the quality good enough?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Great share, thanks. Have a question does the audio only come out via the headphone jack? Reason I ask is because plugged in us. Kboard working but audio comes out via the jack unable to use in built speakers for some reason? Thanks in advance
Thanks--this was very helpful! Much appreciated! However, I tried connecting my Alesis vi49 controller, and even with a separate power supply connected, I got a message that said iGrand piano cannot work with the vi49 because it requires too much power--any idea how to fix this? Thanks!
God bless for this video...

Hi. Thanks for the video. Could you please tell me how to connect the headphone socket to my Traktor Audio 10 soundcard. Thanks. Chris.
Hi,
Great video.
I have a very old (about 30 years) technics keyboard with midi in and out.
I have a midi in and out to usb and an iPad 4.
If I bought the camera lightning lead would the iPad power the midi/usb lead as well as send and receive the midi signals?
Thanks
FYI ,some devices require a powered hub to work, although apple has a new usb3 to lightning.
Please put Amazon affiliate links for what you use every time you do a how to video. Not only we want to help you but we want to use something which is used and trusted by you.
Nice video. Could you go into a wee bit about how to route MIDI once it's in the iPad? I haven't really done very much of that.
Hi Peri, I will go into the darkness of iOS MIDI in more detail soon.
This was very helpful
Cheers
FYI; want to try something real neat with the CCk, try this, use a powered hub and see how many devices you can send midi in to like gadget. I have done a jam session with 2 nanopads, a kontrol and keyboard
Hi, Doug. I have witnessed a very interesting phenomenon when I connected my keyboard to the iPad via the CCK today. First, although keyboard is supplied with power by an external source, I still got the pop up screen which said that "device requires too much power" (keyboard is Nektar Panorama P6). Second, what I did was that I connected it through USB hub, which wasn't even powered, and it worked! What the hell is going on?
i need your help sir first i thank you for this video cos it teaches alot .
now i have just buy my irig pro duo and i bought my keyboard which korg kontrol 49 i followed the instruction to connect
but right now i am struggling to get a sound from from keyboard and also my i pad is keep saying that the device is not compatable with ipad air 1 first generation . when i try to connect the word coming saying CONNECT , DISCONNECT LIKE THAT. even i bought all those apps but it still telling me the same thing , please me should i buy the cable you saying you talking about / please advise me what to do please . i need it please . thanks mate.
I have two different conectors and nothing works. Are that lightning conector special, I have an Iphone.
- I bought the "camera to lightning" and it worked at once, thanks!
Sir, thanks for the info. I am having a problem with same KORG midi kbd you are showing in the video, and all the connectors are in place, but I don’t get it on, whereas when I connect it to iPhone it works . Please advise if anything need to be done in settings of my iPad Air 2.thanks
thanks
thanks a lot, can I really use this even with a keyboard from auturia which was originally designed to work only with ableton?
Thanks so much! I see you have the nanologue app.. does nanologue work with the last midi keyboard? just checking
Is awesome, gracias now I understand. I only speak spanish. Asi que Gracias es bueno para mi.
Great video!
Worth noting that the iPad Air series does not work like this. They do not provide enough power so one will need a powered USB hub or the connector with USB to Lightening AND with Lightening In (for external power to the connector).
Michael Schollert Hi, I now use an AIR 2 and still use the same Midi controllers, I do not own a powered hub, so it does work like this
Weird... I read it would not work with the Lightning to USB and a non-powered keyboard on the Air series. Tried it myself yesterday with GarageBand on my Air 2 with a cheap non-powered USB midi keyboard to no avail.
But then again; I am new to Apple and I might do something wrong.
I am waiting for my proper midi cable to connect the Yamaha DTX M12 as that does not work with the USB camera connector either.
Class compliant can be important, and sometimes you will need a powered hub. Plus a hub makes ipad go much longer
Wish I’d found this vid earlier. Thanks. 👍🏼
Love your stuff mate. Always helpful. Do you ever find your iPad running out of power and if it was a live situation what would you recommend to power the iPad. I have a new camera connector and it allows for power in and USB
Thanks Richard, I never run out of power but then again I don't need to use the iPad in live situation, my friend Jakob Haq just made a really good video about powered USB hubs and connectors, you should check it out here czcams.com/video/irgM3Egd70c/video.html also you may find his latest video useful too.
Hey man, Thank you for making this awesome tutorial!! Can you please gimme some app names that are alternative to GarageBand and Music Studio!? Thanks in advance :3 a list would be awesome.
Cubase maybe.

Hi, great video. My ipad shows an error message "this device uses too much energy". My keyboard dosn't come with ac adapter and i was thinking, maybe if i plug my keyboard to the computer (only to power it) and then with the midi out i plug it to the ipad might work... what do you think? thanks a lot.
Your right about the generic connectors ,the Apple ones are expensive but they are the only that work
How about use with a PC running Hauptwerk under Windoze? It would be useful to use an iPad as a touchscreen, with stop jambs displayed on it, with the ability to select a stop ("learn facility"? ) sending the stop ON or OFF message to the PC.... actually PLAYING the VPO would be via a midi keyboard....
I notice that the sound coming out of your Ipad is very warm and clean is that DAC you have coming out the the headphones or what are you using and one more question can an Ipad work with Maschine-Tracktor?
Awesome video! Will the irig pro work with any midi keyboard? I have some older keyboards with midi, some of them from the 80's. Just wondering if irig pro is compatible with all midi keyboards? Thanks!
Any luck with Roland GW7? Tried every way possible but couldnt make it work. Thanks!
Nice vid. Does using a USB keyboard drain much power from the iPad, and it looks although you have no issues getting sound out of the headphone socket to plug through an AUX input to get a louder sound?
Nice
Where can I get that adaptor from usb to my iPhone ? Is it possible to plug my midi to garage band on my iPhone ? Thank you
Hi great video thanks. My question is if i connect a Yamaha PSR E333 to an imac, I just want to be able to play a recording i made under grand piano from my keyboard on my computer so I can send the file by email or whats app.Will i need software for this or is it already on a imac?
