Connecting midi usb keyboard piano into Ipad Pro and playing for Live Sound

How to connect your midi instrument into your Ipad Pro with the usb-c port into a sound system. If you follow a similar means as I present here, but are connecting to a sound system, you'll likely want to connect the 1/4" output to a direct box to transfer to an XLR into the sound board that you are running the speakers out of.

Thank you. It took me a long time to find someone who could explain this well. You saved me time and headaches

[@Nada-jd6lo]

Thanks! your video is helpful and informative. I do not know how to have the sound coming out from the keyboard itself rather than an Ipad. Do you know how?

[@marcustoney7762]

You can control the volume with the big focus right volume knob.

I thought I need to install the driver about MIDI, it seems that it is not necessary. Thanks for your video.

Hi man, thank you. In fact I think I have missed something, perhaps due to my poor language understanding.
I tried the following setup: iPad Pro 11 3rd gen, TwelveSouth StayGo Docking Station, Presonus Audiobox iTwo, and obviously a midi keybaord.
It does not work. iPad and Presonus don't see each other. I don't understand what I'm missing. For sure I can't understand the routing that the several signals should take through the only usb-C socket. 😕

The 48v button is for phantom powered mics. It should normally not have an influence on the ipads sound coming through or not?!

Can I ask you a question? Is it possible to achieve the same thing if i use just an Ipad, IPad port to USB (female), and a midi in & out to USB (male) to plug to my electric piano without having to have the audio interface.
What I meant is that
1. I plug my electric keyboard to the mixer for the sound output.
2. Have the Midi In & Out to the electric keyboard and the USB (male) to the IPad (female).
3. Then use the IPad app (Garageband) to change the sounds for the live performance
Question: If it is possible, will there be possibility that the latency is there?
Thanks a lot :D

I don’t think the wire will put out enough power from the iPad. I tried this from my midi keyboard to my iPhone and it didn’t work. Might be different on the iPad though, if it is let me know because I’m wondering the same

Why your gospel musician app have a lot of library?

[@tronlady1]

I don’t think you need an audio interface here. The midi keyboard is sending midi to the iPad and the audio should be coming out of the iPad to the speakers or your interface. If it’s an older iPad you’ll have a headphone output. If it’s a newer iPad it’s a ball ache. The whole iPad music making is an absolute farce. Yes there are some phenomenal apps but you need a TON of other stuff to make it all work. You’d be best just saving up and getting a really good stage keyboard like a used roland fantom. You can mix all your apps audio within your iPad via an app called audiobus ❤

Bose s1 is NOT good for a midi keyboard... sounds horrible......not really made for electric sounds..
