In this episode, we check out the new USB3 Apple Lightning to Camera Adapter, hooked up to a powered USB3 Hub, which in turn is connected to the RME Babyface, full keyboard and USB3 CF card reader with no issues.
I'm using Garageband to show how you can work with 2 instruments at once so you can be more inspired when you can switch quickly without having to mess about every time you want a change!

Finally. I watched some instructions videos on doing this and they talked about a powered lightning adapter but all I could find was a “camera” connector and that threw me off completely. I couldn’t get an answer anywhere , if this was what they were using. Thanks! Going to buy one right now
Something to learn each time i view your videos. Thanks.
I really appreciate this video. I get confused and this just helped decide what to buy. Nearly bought the wrong thing😊
I liked that composition a lot!
Hello Adam - really useful video, well explained and demonstrated. I wanted to connect a Korg Kronos to the new Korg Kronos remote app on my iPad Pro. I didn't get how to do it as the Kronos uses the USB B port to connect for midi and now I have seen your video I can use the Apple USB3 Lightening to Camera Adapter, power the iPad using another Lightening power cable and use a USB B to USB A cable to connect the Kronos to the iPad. Before I watched your video I spent a long time wondering what connector I needed and trawling through the endless connection options at the Apple Store website. I agree with you and think maybe Apple are missing a trick in the fact that they push this connector for Photography, and yes it is superb for that use, but there are many Musicians out there who have been waiting for this and probably don't realise it's available and how essential it is to them. One last thing I would add is that it's not cheap but the trade off is that it works!!! Other cheaper imports may not, this being Apple you know will be Quality. Thank you Adam for solving the mystery of Apple, USB and connecting to Music devices. 🎹🎹🎹 😀👍
Helpful! Thanks for the demo.
Wow that’s great to find out. Great video. Question... Can I have stereo out and a click track. What app would do that.
Great video! I'd like to see a video with an iPad connected to a drum machine (I have an MV8800). I don't think I've ever seen that on UA-cam. Thanks!!
Excellent video, i want to know how can i do if if want to use it live, i connect my MIDI controller to my ipad between this adapter but where is the output of my sound? 3.5mm jack? i would like a very high output sound, thankyou.
Thanks a lot man. Rushing to apple store now!
TNX ALOT PRO XLNT VID STAY TUNED AND HAVE A NICE
It worked on my iphone 6s plus. thanks bro!
Very informative, and certainly solves the eternal power problem. However, same as other brand products...why do they make the cable from the unit so short...it’s never good to have anything dangling in the air putting strain on the socket...wouldn’t take much to make the cable few inches longer so it could sit supported on desk..
Hi, I would to ask if how can we set the knobs from the midi controller, to control the parameters of a certain synth sound in the garage band? thanks
Bro! Can you use and Interface to manipulate the Audio on the Camera 🎥 app of the IPhone? Please Help!
Im wondering can i have a setup like that with the fire hd 10. Im a beginner and am so lost trying to figuere out what equipment to get.
So I'm a newb, basically just trying to run a few mics into a mixer and record a stereo signal onto an iPhone from that. How would you go about doing that?
iPad Pro also can be charge with a Smart Connector dock. So maybe that can help you.
What is the name of the song you play on bass?
Great videos! (reviving the threads I suppose) ... So this is almost exactly the setup I want for home Voice Over work, but I really don't want to use Garageband. ... Would this setup work with Reaper, if I ran Reaper on my Mac and shared it to the iPad using a software/app like Duet Display (which you talked about in part 1 of this series)?
ANY help about the myriad of connections would be amazing.
That's really interesting video! And this new small thing (Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter) looks much more important, than someone would think at first glance. Do I understand it right, that now, thanks to this new small thing, you can connect to iPad _any_ USB Audio interface? And if so, maybe here is another benefit: if in this case USB audio interface will take power from iPad, then it will be better for audiosignal, than in case, when you connect power adapter of the audio interface directly to the electrical socket?
*Upd:* ah… no, I see you talked about this shame at 2:30. So, probably that means I still have to look for interfaces, which compatible with iPad? But you are using RME Babyface, I doubt that manufacturer declared compatibility with iPad in this model. I have a mess in my head…
So, the only benefit is you can charge an iPad during work in studio?
thank you very much for this vid ;-) very helpful
Hi Adam, I'm enjoying this iPad series a lot, thanks! Just wondering if you have any noticeable latency with the Apogee Jam or your Baby Face? I have just bought the iRig HD and I've noticed that the GarageBand amps have latency that I can hear. I downloaded JamUp and this has a low-latency option which helps a lot, but the iPad is still not as good as my 8 year old Roland Cube modelling amp for latency.
Hello brother, first of all thanks a shit tons for this informative video. Id like to get a portable setup for the band. I have the yamaha ead10 so would i require a apogee duet to get the audio or it could come in via usb to garageband or aria and i could use the little 1 in usb jam thing for strings.
I have a new iPad pro 2021 and a scarlet audio interface so will this usb be right for me to go on?plz reply
One more thing plz ,how would irig work with charge and playing?
I am having trouble getting audio into the usb 3 adapter I can get audio out if i connect the adapter to my mixers usb port. Do you have any suggestions.
Looooooveee your playing!
Nice video thanks
Thank you!!!!!
I just sent away for the Audient id4 which only gets its power vis the USB so this will be how I run my set up as well. Thanks for the vid. It would be nice to see a vid that compares the Apple camera adapter with a cheaper chinese knock off to see if they both do the same thing. I doubt there's any circuitry inside but with Apple who knows?
+ben dunn there's a lot of circuitry inside, I've seen a tear down. I wouldn't touch an iPad with a Chinese knockoff since a lot of voltage goes through it- and that's the one thing where I won't skimp on money
una domanda Per favore fatemi sapere come aggirare l'uscita cuffie del mio mini2 Ipad? Ho un tweak yamaha 12 che uso come tastiera master Dal uscita USB della tastiera ora con un kit di corredo nel mio miniIpad 2 e poi dalla presa cuffia con un cavo mini jack jack stereo vado all'amplificatore Come posso entrare nella mia iPad mini e uscire Dalla miniIpad senza utilizzare l'uscita cuffie per andare all'amplificatore? Perché io suono le applicazioni che ho Grazie Roberto
Have you a external power supply in use for the babyface ?
When you plug in the power supply to the babyface, does the babyface light up ?
Sorry for asking, I have a babyface and I try 3 different power supplies but they do nothing the babyface stays dark, I expect lights flashing up...
Will this same setup work for the latest Babyface Pro FS or does it need its own RME power supply?
Great news! Thanx!!
Is iOS Garageband accurate and good enough for composing more complex tunes? I notice that when using the on-screen touchscreen keyboard, I find it hard to be accurate with playing the notes on iOS Garageband. I'm curious if this gets improved when using a USB MIDI keyboard.
Mate... what brand of USB hub can you recommend? Wanting to ensure one that seems to be functioning without issue :)
very inspiring.
Can you please tell me what apps are you using to accompany your guitar or bass ,than you
Yamaha i-MX1
Excellent video! Have you checked out the Roland capture duo ex interface? It's battery powered so, it too is very portable with 2 combo inputs and midi capabilities. Just wondering... I just recently purchased a used one... work great so far.
+Eric Jay hi Eric. I've seen them, I'll see about a demo video
What brand Powered USB hub do you use? there are several on Amazon. am I looking for specific jack input.s I would like to run mic possibly into the ap as well, but not as necessary as getting the keyboard to record and compose.
this is awesome! it only took Apple six years to come out with this amazing invention! 6 years! yuhuu!! Not too bud for one of the highest rated technological companies on the planet. This is so amazing that I have now heard Apple will officially open a new special department to sell all kinds of shorty, whitey, little silly adapters to all of us consumers! They are so kind.. and they do all this for a very convenient price.. I love Apple, I love my ipad.. Thanksthanksthanks!
yeah! just wait another 6 years and who knows what else Apple will invent to delight us all.. They are aaaawesome!
Hello! This a great video. My question, is it possible to connect the behringer fca1616 to my iPad mini using the USB lighting connector? Thank you so much for your time.
Gabriel Arcos yes you can.just type on google Behringer fca1616 Auria.it will take you to a iPad app forum.someone has the interface and was able to use it without issue
Does slim drive work on iPad pro
great video. How do you do it to energize the iPad and not have noise problems? I have connected the 12 w ipad charger to the AC outlet and there is a very annoying noise when I am playing the guitar. Do you use any type of filter? power bank? Thank you
Hi David, did you resolve this problem? I've just bought this adapter and have the same issue with buzzing when charging :( Very disappointing...
Great! can you also adjust the audio latency down to 64 samples like u do it on PC?
Baksa Gimm yes you can.with Auria Pro, BeatMaker 3 and Stagelight.i don’t know about GarageBand
Genial
I have the UD-BT01which is made by Yamaha which is a Bluetooth interface, it cost me about $79.00. I use it with an iPad 4, would also work with iPad 3 but not earlier, the Bluetooth is different on iPad 2. I have a Bluetooth typing keyboard should I need it and it works hooked up at the same time. The UD-BT01 is recognized by GarageBand, Steinberg Cubasis, AudioBus, iGrand and iElectric by IK Multimedia. All this keeps me pretty busy. I have two Yamaha keyboards: DGX-660 which stays at home and the NP-12 Piagerro for travel. And I can email what I record to my Mac Pro. One can actually have two UD-BT01 or more in use as you can give them unique names. I use one device for both my keyboards as I don't use them as you do stacked as if for a church organ dual keyboard.
Yes, I like your setup. The iPad Pro is too expensive right now for me.
Does it work for Facebook live? Thanks
Great, been looking for this for my iPad pro. Any alternative to RME baby face? A bit high to my budget. So here, your bass goes to Apogee jam->USB Hub->Camera connector kit, am I right?
That’s right- you don’t have to run the Jam through a hub, it can connect directly but if you want to use other devices at the same time that’s when I’d use a hub
Hi. Can you use the lightning port for audio out as well? Example to lightning headphones. I'm looking for a set up for my iPhone 7 plus and want to do audio out via lightning
Yes I want to use a USB midi controller. How I intend to use it is by plugging the USB midi controller directly into and audio out from the lightning port.
I'm assuming it should still work on the iPad so you can test it.
Can you connect prrarel two devices, usb sound card and midi usb keyboard with garage band?
I think so, using a usb hub. In fact that’s what I’m doing here
Your videos are really good, .... would it be ok if I planned on getting a 68gb ipad pro, to make my home studio, or would I need an ipad with more built in memory ?,
68? Do you mean 64 or 128? I think either would be fine, with the 64 you would have to back up your old projects a lot, but it wouldn’t stop you working
Hop Pole Studios , thanks for your reply :)
Yeah I meant 64gb , its just that I have a lower budget but I want to make sure that I'll be able to at least make a few tracks before having to back it up, and I want to make sure that it will load up my midi controler ,.... is there one that you would suggest more than the other, ? You seem like you know your stuff :), and I'm planning on buying today.
Hi my Friend I want to ask you, which brand of power usb hub do you use? Also, before you connect the power hub to Usb3 apple lightning , have all your devise power from powered usb or you had to conect the powered hub to Usb apple Lightnig. Thanks man greate video
:-) Thank you my friend your video solve with simple way my problem . It's the only video from a musician for this kind of setup ( midi + powered hub and + interface )
+Adam Steel Can you please name the exact model of the power hub, which you have? I was on StarTech's website, and didn't find there anything, which looks like your example. I didn't know that there are such hubs available, which are powered. It means I can use any type of USB audio interface with iPad through this hub? Maybe you would recommend some other good quality hubs with power supply? I live in region, where we have 220-230V in electrical sockets.
Hi Adam, nice video!..I'd like to know if is it possibile to connect two midi keyboards at the same time in order use both simultaneously and with two different kinds of sound. Thank you ;)
Antonio Fasano I believe you can do that with iConnectivity Audio products.
Thanks Quinthony Brown.
Does anyone actually use this little gadget to connect a camera??
Hi Adam. Do I need the Baby FAce ( which is super Costly) to just plug in Keyboard to Midi, through Camera adapter?
Also, Which program set up and configuration (or is it the same) to write music directly onto staff from My keyboard. ? Thanks. Teresa...
Thank you.. if you run across anyone doing Shout back... I appreciate your videos. :)
Hi
Can I connect behringer q802usb to the APPLE USB3?
And can I record stereo signals thru that?
It is usually said that the lighting to USB only handles 100ma load so I am confused.
Yes you can.go on you. Check this video forum.audiob.us/discussion/25790/behringer-xenyx-q802-usb-mixer-tutorial-set-up-as-ipad-audio-interface
I’m having an issue with midi keyboard, sounds like two keys are being played when only one is being played. Any ideas to why. I’m running iPad Pro garage band, with this adaptor
Sounds like your keyboard is sending midi on more than one channel, see if you can change that on the keyboard
hey Adam-
think i'd have any issues recording Auria Pro tracks with my iPad Air 2 ? i know it's not the latest iPad but it's still working well.
would i be able to use this new USB3 Camera kit ?
i want to use a Presonus or Focusrite interface for recording purposes...
Please let me know if you manage to do this ?
I can't record using an iPad air 1 with the older lightening cck, auria and a behringer xr18 and I'm gutted :o(
Record a full song with this set up, in cubasis or auria
+Parker Murray is that a request or a demand?
Hop Pole Studios yes 😉
can you hook up a usb volume control to the hub and have it turn up and down volume on the iPad?
+Scott Miller hmm, not something I've thought about before. Can't think of any reason why not, it's just going to be trial and error
if you have one lying around can you try it? I was thinking griffin powermate usb. Would make a nice volume adjuster for you too id think.
BRAVOoooooooooooooo
That is not an interface, it is Babyface👍 😎
So if I had an interface with a full blown drum mic set up it would work ?
Depends if the interface is class compliant to work with an iPad, but yes
Depends if the interface is class compliant to work with an iPad, but yes
? I have the 30pin ipad fo you think that would be a problem?
Yes that won’t work. You need the older style 30-pin camera adapter, which won’t charge the iPad, but will do the keyboard/interface connection
When I use the adapter connect to Zoom H5 and iPhone 6s , do you think it would help to recharge Zoom (rechargeable batteries)and iPhone at the same time?
+Chi Kwan Tai depends on how long you intend to run them together for. Will your batteries run out? Then have them charging. Otherwise it’s up to you
Hop Pole Studios when I use the rechargeable on Zoom H5, it seems can long lasting a bit , I think the Zoom H5 is try getting some electricity through the Apple Adapter 3.
When I use GP normal batteries before, it runs out in 30-45mins, so fast
Can someone please tell me what type of powered usb hub he is using? Also, is the rme babyface set to cc mode?
I’m using a Startech Usb3 powered hub, but any should work fine. And yes, the baby face is in cc mode with the iPad
Hop Pole Studios .. Cheers! Thanks for sharing
Hmmm? But if your iPad is connected to the active USB Hub, well yo do not need the other lightning input, cause the iPad get current trough the Hub like the the other devices... Or am I missing something? So the "older" adapter would be OK.
+Fernando caras no that not how it works, the iPad is the "upstream" device, so would be the one giving power. So in this case the old adapter will not charge the iPad, ever.
OK I understand. I am searching for a USB HUB with integrated power pack, till now I only saw one but only in Amazon USA, not here in Germany ;-( Do you know someone? I mean a power pack with data transfer integrated like the "ravpower 20100mah type-c port, ismart hub data transfer power bank"
+Fernando caras that sounds like a great idea. I've not seen one but let me know what you find, people are missing out
Hi! I'd have a question too. Do you actually need the USB hub necessarily? Would it be the same, if I would connect the RME with his power adapter to the socket? In this case I would not need no power from a USB hub. Am I correct? Thanks in advance
+Antonio Siena hi Antonio, yes that's right. The hub is an option if you don't have an interface with a separate power supply, or if you want to connect more than one thing but it's not necessary
Thank you very much!
I just sent away for the Audient id4 which has no external power source so this will be how I run my set up as well. Thanks for the vid.
Does this usb hub work for the ipad pro 9.7 ?
Yes, but at USB 2 speeds
How did you connect your guitar to your iPad?
Apogee Jam, Apple camera lightning connector
How are you ? Where did you order that connection from I've been searching all over?
Hey! The usb3 camera connector? Straight from the Apple store!
Thanks
Good videos, just a little update. When I bought my Apple usb 3.0 adapter it had a firmware update from the iPad Pro V2. I did some tests to see what the firmware changed and it now powers more through the USB. I was able to power external USB hard drives, SSD drives and memory keys that usually say it need more power. But you need to use a 12 Watts USB A or 29 watt USB C power supply. It might give the power error at first, then does a fast reboot and switches some of the power over to the USB port and the error goes away and it works. So no more powered hub. Identify know if this is only for the pro version 2, I think it’s the same for iPad Pro version 1 since they use the same lighting and usb chip, along with iPhine 8, the 8 plus and the iPhine X.

Gadget Review Videos bro that is super awesomeness. Makes me excited about full fledged music production on the iPad pro. I'm just waiting for the 2018 iPad Pro to drop.
Hello ! I can recording a microphone like An AKG C314 on the Babyface ??
+Nicolas de Coriolis yep!
Hop Pole Studios ! You're great !
+Nicolas de Coriolis thanks Nicolas!
It's basically a laptop where every part is an external dongle. Why not just use a laptop? There's both more and better apps for Win/OSX than on iOS. It's a sincere question. I'm too constantly checking new audio software on iOS. Trying to incorporate it into my setup. But every time I come to the conclusion that a laptop ain't much bigger than the iPad, is more powerful, got more software. Doesn't have all it's part hanging around, but is all in the same box (except for a quality audio interface).
Excellent point! Just what I have been saying! Just get a laptop, and call it a day! I use a MacBook Air. I can transfer the MIDI files to my 27" if I want to for a bigger screen. All without dinking around on a small screen with yet another interface (the iPad) to contend with...
One possibility might be no cooling fan noise to manage while recording so device can be in recording booth.
Quick and easy portability for one, secondly, touch screen interfacing. Two wins for me
Will this work with a Focusrite solo?
Looks that way, the solo works with iPad according to their website
OMG you are the male version of me LOL except you're a little bit cleverer and more talented. I've been harping on about iPad recording for years but have never actually managed to do it!! Nice playing by the way! I'm hearing a bit of a Yorkshire accent Adam?
+tronlady1 haha! Yeah I spent a few years living in Huddersfield and I'm from Oldham (near the border) so not quite, but near enough :)
+tronlady1 haha! Yeah I spent a few years living in Huddersfield and I'm from Oldham (near the border) so not quite, but near enough :)
Great Video!!! Who makes the powered usb hub? Thanks.
It’s a Startech USB3 hub in this case, although most powered usb2 hubs work just fine
Model number? Thanks again - just to be sure
Really can’t remember, they might not make it anymore. But most should work!
I have the yamaha mg12xu usb mixer interface already powered i asume do i need a powerhub?
+set sail with a sparrow if it's a powered interface, you likely won't need a powered hub. I have no idea if it works with an iPad though, you'll have to find that out on your side
Hop Pole Studios ok thanks ill see that tomorrow
Its working
+set sail with a sparrow good stuff! Is that to capture a stereo mix from the desk, or can it do multiple channels?
Does this work on a device that is not iPad Pro like iPad Air 2?
Wow, great series on iPad Pro & and its audio capabilities. T.M.I. Being a fantastic thing in this case...so much good info on home recording 👍👍👍. What a public service.👏👏👏
+Will D thanks will!
Hi , I’ve just got a steinburg ur22 but when I rig it up to my iPad Air 2 the usb light just flashes on an of have you any idea what the problem might be mate please
Is it also plugged into the mains? An iPad can’t supply enough power on its own for most interfaxes
Hop Pole Studios yes I bought a belkin power hub to power it
Ok, next step- is a ur22 class compliant? Has anyone else got a ur22 to work with an iPad before?
Hop Pole Studios yes there a bloke on here Pete johns from Australia, he has done the same as you with the steinburg ur12 but the ur12 has a separate mains input, we’re as the ur22 doesn’t that’s why I bought the power hub
Cool, well that’s a start. Maybe you’re plugging them in in the wrong order? Try connecting the interface to the hub in such a way that power comes on last maybe? I remember doing this with the iD4 it had to be in a certain order
What bass is that?
Vintage Modern Jazz Bass with a ton of upgrades
Just looked on their site and it doesn't exist! You sure this is sold by Apple?
Yeah, it's an official Apple adapter and it's called the Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter. They sell it at any Apple Store.
Adam Steel
Apologies, I've now found it on their site and on Amazon as well (I couldn't find it on there either at first). It looks useful and as there's an Apple Store across the river from me in Stratford, I think I'll be paying them a visit. I like your review by the way.
how big is your iPad pro storage
so like its 256gb ya i wanna see I'm just trying to decide between that or 128gb i guess 32gb is not even a question
yeah id love 64!! 256 seems like too much 128 u feel is perfect for you? this is awesome I'm glad to be subbed to you
adam help me!!!! i'm trying to decide if an iPad pro is something i could use as a tool for my workflow with photography and small video edits here and there (for vlogs for my channel/reviewing footage/ editing photos) when i don't wanna bring my laptop around or is it a total luxury like could u see yourself living without one?! i'm so torn between this and my macbook pro retina base model or just grab an iPad mini 2 ):
Louis Luzuka well in my experience you can use an iPad mini 4! I'm professional drone pilot and graphic designer so I have all the information for you! I decide to buy the iPad mini 4 and I'm totally in love with it.
The iPad Pro is an amazing iPad for video editing using iMovie and any other video editor o photo editor like photoshop and I will do your jobs faster on the go but I prefer my laptop (MacBook) to do all the stuff. You can buy the IPad Pro (the cheaper one and you can buy usb reader o lightning to usb 3 storage devices to compensate the storage if the iPad
this is awesome thank you! which ipad mini did u get?
What an excellent video, thanks. I wish id seen this before I bought a bloody iconnect midi pile of shite waste of time.when ios updates it seems to kill off generic camera connection kits. so after spendingmoney and effectively wasting it on cheap cck's, you realise you have to spend the money and get the official bloody Apple gear.
+Shed its unfortunate, but yeah the real apple stuff, as expensive as it is, always works!
My apple cck and iPad air with Auria LE and a behringer xr18 isn't. It shows as USB then it goes back to INT on auria and then I get the error message "this accessory may not be supported". Even when USB shows I don't get any signal into auria :o( ....SOMEBODY please help :o(
+tronlady1 the XR18 is not a USB interface and never has been. All you can do with its USB port is record to a usb stick (2 channel only). I’m not aware of any other functions, I’ve got an XR12 that’s the same. The X32 works as an interface, but as for the XR18 you’ll have to read the manual to see if it’s possible with any computer, let alone an iPad.
With all due respect sir.....the xr18 IS a multichannel audio interface and this is demoed on the behringer video's. However, they are using an older iPad with a 30pin to usb CCK. This also, didn't work for me :o( The XR18 and x18 are different to the other models in that they CAN record multichannel audio....supposedly anyway! It's proper doin me bulb in!!
+tronlady1 but it’s not working.
Great video, that's why I was watching it several times already. Your videos about iPad Pro in Audio Production context have the biggest amount of views on your channel.
0:55 - But I don't quite understand, why all this thanks to this new cable connector. You could connect your *powered* usb hub to previous "camera" connector as well. You told that iPad's battery starts to drain. But you use USB hub, which has its *own power supply*, and it supplies all connected devices… That's why I thought that it shouldn't be much power consumption pressure for iPad. I just would like to better understand, how all this works (I never had iPad, going to get second gen. 12.9" when it will be announced in March).
Another thing which makes me wonder. You connected typing keyboard as well. But does iPad allow to connect and successfuly use regular typing keyboard with iOS? And the same wonder about connected compact flash reader. Before I thought that iOS doesn't allow to read data from card readers. Only, if you installed special app beforehand from flash drive's manufacturer.
***** OK, thank you for clarification! I understand now.
I think, with powered USB hub it's possible to use practically any USB audio interface. Some interfaces can't work with iPad, because they have only one USB port for data and power. No DC port for adapter, no batteries etc. Thus they can be used only with laptops/desktops to take power from them. Connecting those interfaces directly to iPad (without using power hub) through USB-cable is not possble, because they will not be power supplied from the iPad. But using powered hub connected to iPad's "Camera" adapter, will make it possible, because in this case audio interface will take power from that powered USB hub (so, data and power transfer will be provided through one powered USB hub and one USB-cable of the interface, like when they connected to laptop). I hope I get it right. And hence there are two good news from this video: Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter and idea with powered USB hub, which is also important for me, because I'm looking for audio interface, which will work with iPad, and this idea with powered USB hub can make my options much wider.
About new Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter I have understood it earlier, that its advantage is in continued iPad charging and working with it at the same time with other devices connected to it (and that's really great). I just thought, that using powered hub, iPad's power shouldn't drain fast even without this Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter, because connected devices will take power from powered USB hub insted of iPad, and they shouldn't eat iPad's power with any type of "Camera" adapter (I mean if iPad is not connected to charger). But if you would use passive USB hub (not powered), then yes, probably iPad's power will start to drain faster, and having Lightning to USB 3 adapter becomes more critical (to keep it charged). The point is before I didn't know (didn't think) about powered (active) USB hubs (because most hubs on the market are passive, not powered), and now I see this is good solution too. That's why this video was twice helpful for me, for two reasons: now I know about Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter (will get it), and idea with *powered* USB hubs.
Sorry for long text and not perfect English.
How many song can u record in ur ipod storage...
Jagger from LA California
Hi Jagger- that really depends on what size you have and how big your projects are! On a 32gb iPad with big projects you might get 4-5 projects on at once, with an 128gb model you can have loads
Hop Pole Studios cool thnx
Hop Pole Studios what kind of software r u using to record...?
Hop Pole Studios
Hop pole

Hi Adam, Thanks for uploading but truth is the USB3 camera adaptor is very disappointing. The frequency noise it does when you plug in the power supply on the lightning socket is terrible. Makes it unusable for recordings while charging. I returned it for a refund. Cheers \m/
Tks for your feedback. Hmm... I used an Apogee Jam that works flawless with a non-powered adaptor. I thought about a ground loop but the Apple power supply having no ground pin, I dont see how I could isolate it, as opposed to my amps that work just fine i the same environement...
I use an Apogee Jam also ( 96k ) and an Apogee Mic for when Im mobile, when Im at home I use an Apogee Duet for Mac/Ipad, no noise what so ever and charges the Ipad, as well as let you use a usb midi keyboard. One could say the Duet is a little pricey but imo its worth it, I use it for my Ipad and my MacBook Pro. I think Apogee really gets it when it comes to IOS audio production.
Freakin' F******* 50 Euro's for that adapter is INSANE! OMG Apple!
Yes, one needs a tub of Vaseline handy and something to bite down on when entering an Apple store.
