Pete Johns hey does this adapter allow you to transfer media from third party apps to your usb?
Hey there my friend. It does now in iOS 13 or iPadOS. m.ua-cam.com/video/UZUmuykW-MQ/v-deo.html
Very detailed and useful for understanding options. Thank you!
Thanks my friend. If you want to see how to connect up audio interfaces and other devices too, take a look here - ua-cam.com/video/ESmnF7jv92A/v-deo.html
Excellent video and helpful explanations... thinking of buying a condenser mic but will watch your video first as concerned about the 48v phantom required. Cheers.
Yeah, pretty much any audio interface or mixer has phantom power these days so you should be fine.
That was very Useful. Thank You!
You’re very welcome my friend. I hope you get value from the other videos here on the channel and consider subscribing. 👍
@pete johns Great video! Once again thank you for taking the time to do these
And Hanks to you for taking the time to watch and comment! Really appreciate it.
Your amazing Pete!!! Thank you so much♥️♥️♥️❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
👍😎
Hey there. Just bought this after watching your review. 😀
Ageel!! My friend!! Enjoy it - probably the most used piece of gear in my setup these days.
worked great with Blue Yeti microphone!!!! so pumped!!!!
Awesome! So it's sending enough power to the mic to operate? I've had some reports from folks using iPhones that the Yeti draws too much power, but I think the more recent iPhones and iPads work fine.
Buy a lightning to USB 3 Adapter on Amazon here ➡➡➡ amzn.to/2wnyqmL
How many minutes or hours does the ipad last with the standard adaptor(without the charge)?
It depends what you’re connecting. I usually get 2-3 hours out when connecting just a USB interface.
Can you connect mouse through this cable ?
I have tried a mouse, but it either didn’t work or there is nothing that supports a mouse in iOS?
Great work!

Hi Pete & thanx for your always helpful videos, I really enjoy the use quite a few of your helpful garageband tips.. I have a question ?? How to connect a VGA & midi keyboard to my iPad. 7th Generation , Thanx in advance for your time to respond
Unfortunately you can’t use video output and audio input at the same time with a Lightning based iPad. You’ll need a newer USB-C iPad. ua-cam.com/video/kPvsEIUigik/v-deo.html
Great video . Thank you
Cheers Jon. Appreciate your kind comments on the videos.
I have a Blair Digital Bagpipe that I’d love to try with the camera adapter. If I can get it working, I could play in harmony with myself! Awesome! Thanks for this video.
If I use the metronome when recording, could I turn off the sound of the ‘nome on playback?
Oh wow?! That sounds super cool. Let me know how it goes. 👍
(And yes, 100%. It won’t record any of the metronome sound if you have a direct line input).
i’m glad i wasn’t the only one tempted to buy this :) i hope you will enjoy it, i find it very useful, and i love that the cable is thicker. :) ps. mine also asked for a firmware update for the cable :)
Yes, already loving having everything plugged in at once. And with my powered USB hub (spoiler alert for next video) I can have my interface and MIDI keyboard connected at once while my iPad is charging!
your video is really helpful ♥️ but im confused which adapter should i but to connect bloody headphones please give me the link 😭
It’s the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter. Link at studiolivetoday.com/gear
Cool video. I have an iPad Pro 12.9 first gen and I want connect a webcam; I have a Logitech Brio, you think is posible use the webcam on the iPad with this adaptor?
So, I have experimented woh this before and the short answer is “no”. iOS devices don’t play nicely woh external cameras because they want you using their camera. There are third party apps that claim they can do this but I haven’t tried them sorry.
Thanks for your helpful vids. I have one of these lightening-to-usb3 adapters, and an iPad mini4. I have it hooked up to my non-wifi USB printer, but the iPad keeps searching for airPrint printers. Do you happen to know if this could work somehow (printing from an iPad thru a USB cable)?? I've looked for apps that might help, but also no luck.
Oh not tried printing from from iOS except over WiFi sorry.
Hey, Pete, thanks for all the help on iOS/USB connections for music! I have an off-topic question, though, that is driving me crazy: what USB PRINTERS can be used with the same adapter you're using here? I have the adapter, now I just need to find a USB printer that will accept input from my iPad 6. Every search I have tried always covers AirPrint and Wireles printers and the USB printers they do mention are for Windows and Mac. I can't find a sngle thing (yet) that mentions USB printers that are compatible with iOS 13 devices via a USB connection.
I have had this question before but unfortunately haven’t used a non-wireless printer for quite a while and rarely print from iOS, so prob sly not the best person to ask sorry.
Hey, nice video. Can i use my iPad mini as a monitor for my Canon camera with this new dongle? Thanks :)
Hi there. I don’t believe so. I haven’t found a way to send video over USB to an iPhone or iPad.
Pete, I just discovered your channel and am finding your videos extremely helpful, thanks! I’m a collaborative pianist who has recently had to dive into the world of recording music at home. I purchased the iRig Midi 2 and am having great success hooking up my midi keyboard directly to my iPhone and using GarageBand to record music. My main issue is that I’m unable to record “silently” since there is no separate headphone jack on my iPhone. Is there a cable that will allow me to connect my iRig to my phone while I simultaneously listen to what’s being recorded on my headphones? I’ve tried Bluetooth headphones but there’s a delay. Thanks again!
Hey there Holly. So there are a couple of options here.
You can buy the Apple Lightning Dock as this has a lightning port and a 3.5mm headphone jack for monitoring. Details about this are here, towards the bottom - www.ikmultimedia.com/products/irigmidi2/index.php?p=specs
Or you can use an Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter and the USB cable, and then use either an audio interface or a device like this - ua-cam.com/video/MEpidfMLUqI/v-deo.html
Check out this video for how to use an interface - ua-cam.com/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/v-deo.html
Pete Johns Thanks so much for your quick reply! I’m going to try the Apple Lighting Dock, it might be more expensive but it sounds like fewer steps 🙂
Hi have you updated your iOS to iOS 13 beta. Can you test these lightening converters. It would be a great help
Hey there my friend. I haven’t updated yet sorry but have seen others test this and the genuine adapters all seem to work fine still. 👍
Hi. I left a comment on your other video. I bought the Logitech c922, the three adapter lightning port and I have an iPad Air 2. Will I be able to record with the camera and then edit via my iPad?
Hi there. I haven’t had much luck trying to connect webcams to an iPad or iPhone personally. Apple doesn’t tend to like using any cameras apart from its own.
thanks very much for this video.
Very informative.
June 2019.. Would you still recommend that powerbank/USB-hub... or any other more reliable option?
Thanks
Cheers from Portugal
Hello my friend! Thanks for watching and your kind words. Yes, I still use that exact powerbank as well as a few others, but there are no shortage of quality options out there. Look for one that has at least 10,000 mAh capacity and preferably two ports, with at least one being 2.1A (amps).
Thanks again!
@@PeteJohnsMusic Hello Pete,
Thanks very much for your feedback and good vibes.
I have been looking into these Zendure pwrbanks&usbHub. Pretty expensive, but looks like a solid product.
Thanks ;)
Great review. One thing to add: the Camera Connection 3 will also allow you to connect MIDI devices such as my Akai MPK Mini MkII that require more power than the iPad can supply and won’t work with the original adapter. Haven’t tested it but it may well power your audio interface without external power as well. Cheer!
Hey, very cool! Thanks for the additional info. I will definitely need to try out my interface with the adapter, though I have a feeling I have tried it and it needed either external power or a powered USB hub. Thanks again for watching and providing this feedback. Pete.
Hi Rick do you happened to notice a noise that is quite unnoticeable when using external synth with power supply, connecting the old lightning USB CameraKit via USB A-B (usb A goes to cameraKit & usb B goes to my external synth/workstation keyboard or the Roland FA-06). Thank you Cheers if you encountered this...
Excellent
Thanks. Http://studiolivetoday.com/gear
Good video 👌🤟⭐️
Thanks! I hope you get value from the other videos on the channel and consider subscribing if you haven't already. 👍
Pete Johns I have subscribed
Another cool video. I am very happy I found you, you are a excellent teacher. Thanks for all the information.
Just curious what do you use to video yourself with and do you use a mic. Thanks again
Hey Gayle. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment.
In relation to your question, I use a range of different ear depending on the type of video. This one was shot with my Canon 700D and audio captured to my PC using my MXL 550 mic in to a Steinberg UR44 interface.
You can take a look at all the gear I use and recommend at studiolivetoday.com/gear and I also have a heap of reviews and other gear related videos here:

Thanks for the replies, it is very much appreciated.
Your welcome. Happy creating and if you have any specific questions feel free to reach out.
Pete Johns Thanks I will. Have a great year
Hey There, great video! I want to ask if i can transfer video files from an external hard drive or regular USB flash drive (USB 3.0) to my iPad which is the 5th Generation Model (iOS 13.4.1)? If you can kindly answer my question I will buy this adapter right now!
Thank you so so much!😊
Hi there. Yep, I cover this in detail on other videos here on the channel. This one should get you up to speed. ua-cam.com/video/U9FkeTt9dNc/v-deo.html
Hi Pete, thanks for this video. One thing that never seems to be addressed in videos about this adaptor is audio output, as people seem to use the iPad, which still has a headphone socket. But I need to connect an M-Audio keyboard to my iPhone 7, to control synth apps like Sampletank, for occasional live gigging. My iPhone doesn't have a headphone jack, just the single Lightning port. What isn't clear in this video is whether I can grab the sound output from the iPhone via the adaptor's Lightning port and send it to a PA system or an amp. Can you confirm if it is possible?
Hey Ric. Yes, it gets a little complicated and you will need either an audio interface or some sort of audio adapter to get a headphone jack to monitor audio. This video will give you some ideas and links to some of the devices I recommend - ua-cam.com/video/uC0xGrJb5NY/v-deo.html
Nice one pete, thanks that you heard me haha now i will just try to find out if UMC22 is compatible as it was cheaper than steinberg but if it is not then my next option is the UR. thanks
Nice one. I haven’t tried the Behringer but they make decent stuff (despite what some people like to say!). The only issue is that it’s not dual powered. Check out my next video coming up soon as that may be the option you need to use for the UMC22.
Pete Johns good to hear that gonna purchase this adapter for sure then will try umc22 first before buying..ithink no need to for dual power as the adapter has charging port haha will look forward for your next video
Thanks again Jayson. Appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. Make sure you let me know how you go woh the UMC22.
Jayson Martinez hey so did the umc22 work with the iPad? I have a UM2 and just got this adapter and sadly didn’t work. So I’m looking for an interface that might work
Hello, can you connect a hard disk to the lightening cable and save files and folders?
Hi there. Unfortunately the device doesn’t support flash drives or hard drives for file transferring outside of a digital camera and photos/videos. You would need to buy a specific UsB drive that has a lightning connector and is iOS compatible.
Hello pete, do you have irig hd 2? I would like to know if it could be connected by usb camera adapter instead the lightning port as is usual, because i want to charge at the same time that i connected it.
Hey Hugo. I don’t have an iRig that uses he lightning adapter and not sure sorry if there is a way to convert the other way, from Lightning back to USB? There is probably a way to do this but I haven’t tried sorry.
hello friend, instead of using the charging port, can we use the headphones? thanks
No, unfortunately the Lightning port on this one is only power, not data. This device can help if you want USB ports and a headphone jack. ua-cam.com/video/MEpidfMLUqI/v-deo.html
Thank you so much! When the mic and the adapter connected to iPhone using Garage Band, it sounds fine. But when using the iPad, the mic makes a loud hissing noise (like someone pedaling a bike). Any thought?
That’s a little odd? Haven’t had this issue specifically sorry. Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord.
Hi can u please try this to connect to your printer? I really need your help. Thank you
My printer is WiFi sorry so I don’t have a USB connection.
Hi, would you suggest irig or camera connector?
I tend to lean towards a Lightning to USB adapter and audio interface the IRig, but the iRig Pro I/O is a gray option is specially if you are looking for more convenience.
IRig Pro I/O - ua-cam.com/video/KL7dlCqYxic/v-deo.html

Hi! Thank you so much for the video! I have a question, Can i use this adapter to connect a midi controller to an iPhone SE?
Thanks for watching my friend. Yes, you can use this adapter with the iPhone SE. The MIDI controller needs to support general MIDI and be class compliant, which basically means it needs to operate without any additional drivers so that it is compatible with iOS. Most standard MIDI controllers will work fine.
Hi pete, i just bump on this channel searching something about usb midi noise (sounds kinda like an old video 8 tape being rewinded) when using the older iPad CameraKit with usb A-B to powered hardware synth. Scenario when using USB A-B & the regular USB MIDI Interface like Roland UM-1, well using the UM-1 is fine without noise, but when using the USB A-B type, there is this noise. like plugging in 2 usb device on the PC quite a bit also. Is this kind of power issue? I will buy the new camera kit if this is the solution ... cheers Pete 🎸😉 ✨...
Only disadvantage for me using the UM-1 is quite bulky on live gig, also when using Soft Drummer app by lumbeat, it changes tempo quite a bit like 1 or 2 when doing fast staccatos...hehe
Hi there. I’ve not ever come across any sort of noise being introduced when using MIDI myself so not 100% sure what to recommend here. The latest Lightning yo USB 3 adapter has worked flawlessly for me with a keyboard and a piano, as well as microphones and audio interfaces, so I can vouch for it on that account.
Another great vid and tip.....and much needed to extend recording projects! But, alas, it didn't work for me. After several attempts I went to return the USB3 adapter. The sales person recommended that I connect it to an Apple Splitter adapter. Made sense to me but I had even worse results as it caused horrible feedback and noise issues that I could only stop by rebooting and disconnecting the now two new Apple adapters. It then dawned on me that what was probably causing the problem was my DAW. I am using an iRig HD2 which has its own power (phantom?). So I went to my local Guitar Center and found that IK Multimedia recently made available a fix which works very well. The device is called Power Bridge and is made specifically to power an iPad or iPhone with the HD2. I hope this helps with anyone else connecting to their iPad/Garage Band! Thanks again. Absolutely love your tips!
Thanks for sharing this! I don’t own any devices that use the Lightning port for an audio interface so haven’t looked for a solution that works for iRigs and the like. I will definitely note this and pass on this advice when others ask about this in the future.
Thanks again for watching and passing on this feedback.
Ok great info. However how do I connect my iPad or phone to an amplifier if it doesn’t have a head phone Jack??
You’ll need a 3.5mm to TS converter generally. Check out my cable guide here. studiolivetoday.com/cables
Please advice me in India where I can get this? In amazon.in it is not available. Please advice
Bummer! Can you order directly from Apple in India? That's where they are always available.
@@PeteJohnsMusic okay thanks
Hey mate,
Another great video! I have the same new connector, could I plug my USB mic (rode nt) via the lightning connection and the UR12 via the USB connection to record both inputs at once? (Trying to avoid buying a new mic 😬)
Unfortunately that’s about the one thing you can’t do. Spoiler alert, but I cover exactly this in the very next video out later today, so keep an eye out for that.
+Pete Johns quick update: After a bit of researching I discovered that the Rode NT's onboard monitoring jack can output to the XLR input via a XLR to 3.5mm cable that can be made from standard parts (and a little soldering) available at Jaycar for less than $15. Sounds perfect and with the UR12's onboard monitoring I'm not left without a monitor. Just thought I'd share if anyone else has a similar setup. :)
Brilliant! Good work and glad you got this happening. When I hear the word "solder" I get very nervous, but glad you were able to make it happen. Where there's a will!
Can you connect Apple earbuds to the lightning port of the adapter while a USB mic is plugged in?
I believe that you can. I haven’t tried personally I’m sorry, but have heard reports from others that it is possible.
Is there an equalizer to adjust the sound balance that can be hooked into this?
You can use the iOS EQ built in or use plugins if you’re recording music - ua-cam.com/video/ehMKUVO3qgM/v-deo.html
Why u didn't use an AC adaptor for stenberg audio interface ? If you use that than would it be any problem ?
Yes, you can plug in to a USB/AC adapter instead of using a portable battery. Or you can plug in to a powered USB hub, which is what I usually do when I’m in the studio, as o show in this video - ua-cam.com/video/ESmnF7jv92A/v-deo.html
Hey pete i bought this so i can record my piano audio directly to my iphone camera app but it creates a popping sound i had a similar issue when i used a fake lightning to usb adapter. Do you have any tips or solution so it will stop the popping sound
Popping sound? Hmmmm.... that's odd - and something I haven't come across. What devices are you using with it? Might be a question to ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group - createrecordreleaae.com
Could be a power related issue? Check out this video for some potential tips - ua-cam.com/video/gwNqV1W3fPU/v-deo.html
So if I have a power bank and just have the standard USB lighting cable that’s already plugged into the iPad for my scarlet 2i2 and I have the scarlet USB cable connected to the scarlet will it turn on or do I need a USB lighting cable 3 the one you got to turn on the scarlet?
Hey there. It tends to depend on your device. The safest bet is to get the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter, but you can try with the powered hub only first to see if it will work.
how to have oudio internal out with this adaptateur ? it s possible to add ligthning to jack on this adaptateur ?
Hi there. If I understand your question correctly, you want to connect a USB device and still have a headphone jack for audio output? This isn’t possible on this adapter because the Lightning port is for power only. Here’s another video which will explain more - ua-cam.com/video/FIAYgbKT9Us/v-deo.html
This device might be an option if you want a cheap way to connect USB devices and have a headphone jack at the same time - ua-cam.com/video/MEpidfMLUqI/v-deo.html
Just wondering if you are able to output music from your iPhone/iPad (eg Spotify) to a DAC via usb. Essentially using iPhone/iPad as the source.
Hey there. Yes, most DACs will work with iPhones and iPads.
Hello Pete! I have a Tascam usb interface. It needs a driver installed to be able to work. Is it the same with the steinberg? Is there a way I can intall th driver for my tascam? Thanks!
The Steinberg is class compliant and doesn’t need a driver. More info is here. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Hi would you know if I could use this USB3 to transfer files from my iPad to external hdd? Thank you.
Hi There. Unfortunately not for a standard USB hard drive or flash drive. There are specific drives like the Sandisk iXpand series that are iOS compatible, but most drives will not work.
Will it work with any power bank because I have a lightning to usb charger and when I put it I'm my adapter it says requires too much power but I don't have a power bank I only use plugs
Yes I’ve used power banks for this sort of thing for a while. ua-cam.com/video/k2LpLjHnKGw/v-deo.htmlsi=kVX1mhHMubGhpbDS
can you put movies from phone to usb stick with this?
Depends on the file format you are using and where the videos are stored. Your own videos? Yes. Copy protected videos? Not so much.
Man I just got my new one, it’s killing me! Can’t get audio out from iMPC pro 2 thru my alesis strike samplepad. My gen 2 works fine with the usb camera adapter, I just switch on the Mac midi element mode and it’s plug and play, the 2020 gives me no sound output at all, driving me nuts!!!
Yeah, I’m afraid I don’t currently have an iPad with a USB-C connector but have heard it’s a little more challenging at times getting connected. The iPad Musician group on Facebook has a lot of really smart people that may be able to help out.
Excuse me Pete, it’s possible to have external audio sounds for amplified supply without audio interface?
Hey there. You generally need some sort of USB audio interface. studiolivetoday.com/usb
I can use this method with any usb mic. Is this correct? Also isn’t that mini Samson usb mic capable to plug directly in to the iPad without the apple USB adapter?
Hey there. Yes any USB mic that is class compliant will work, which is most of them.
ua-cam.com/video/K95B2-KfMak/v-deo.html
Sadly the Samson USB mics are all micro USB.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Excellent

Can i use for drone datalink?because i just bought usb to lightning cable but not supported...she say not support stm32..please help me
Hi there. I think I replied to your other comment as well. The USB to lightning to adapter only supports very standard photo and video file formats unfortunately and isn't really designed for file transfers from anything but digital cameras.
Thanks for this video, will a usb mouse work?, I didnt understood correctly, sorry
Yes it will. I was just mentioning that I’m unaware of any applications that support a mouse, but I am sure they exist.
iOS doesn't support mouses. I've tried plugging in a mouse but it didn't work
Nice one. I haven’t actually ever got around to trying it as I couldn’t find an app that would even benefit from it. Would be cool for GarageBand editing on an iPad perhaps.
Hey Pete I have a question, so the usb lightning adapter with the usb and lightning adapters, can I use my usb mic for the usb and a headphones with the lightning adapter? Does it work with headphones?
No. The additional port only provides power and not data or headphones.
Hi, work for iPad 6th generation? And Can it transfer videos and pictures from usb memory? Thanks have a nice day
Yes and yes. This video will help you out further. ua-cam.com/video/3B7VPYe5rZc/v-deo.html
Hey Pete Great Video but mine doesn't connect I bought one with the same use but it doesn't work. I tried to connect my Ipad Mini 4 to my Logitech K235 and for some reason, nothing pops up when I connect it. Might you know what the problem is?
Hey there. You’re using the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter? This video might help / ua-cam.com/video/gwNqV1W3fPU/v-deo.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic no but I checked it out and it only works for the keyboard it only lets me type but the mouse for some reason will not work do you know how to fix this. The keyboard is connected with the mouse btw
bought an irig duo pro couple days ago. quickly discovered quck power drain on my iphone and the irig. power bridge no longer made and this USB3 adapter is supposed to be the saving grace, however i read somewhere that it no longer works with IK irig duo pro i/o. did IK change up the plug pins and put the squelch on or is it still an option? just asking in case you know cuz info anywhere on the net is scarce. BTW enjoy all of your videos!
I’ll need to do some experimentation my friend. I haven’t used my iRig Pro I/O much with the USB connection but can’t see why it wouldn’t work through a powered USB hub like I show in this one? ua-cam.com/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/v-deo.html
It does indeed work! actually found one at local walmart, hooked it up and voila! the charging solution
A good video. Now and with the new iPadOS, we will now be able to connect a usb flash drive to the iPad (@14.26)
Yes, looking forward to iOS13 and iPadOS for this reason!
ua-cam.com/video/rRxvow1cI3c/v-deo.html
iPad Pro 10.5 2017 editions doesn’t work with this adapter, had to send it back
plus another great thing is i can now connect stuff that required too much power before.
Yes, makes life so much more convenient doesn’t it?
Can I use the lightning cable for webcam?
Not really. USB-C connections may allow for this. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Very interesting. I think I‘ll get the USB 3 camera adapter too. So far I always used the old one for connecting midi keyboards to the ipad. And because I don‘t like adapters I got myself an audio interface which connects directly via lightning cable (Line 6 sonic port).
Now I wonder if this new adapter can handle the sonic port via lightning and keep the usb port free for whatever. I think no one ever tried, right?
i m pretty sure someone did
So if you are using something that uses the Lightning port unfortunately none of the Lightning to USB adapters will work. At least I’m my experience.
I saw in another video that the adapter is not meant for an iPhone even though it is a lightning adapter. I’d like to record videos on my iPhone 7 using the camera app and use the lightning connector to attach a USB mic so I can record decent audio for the videos. Can you confirm that the iPhone 7 supports this connector for recording video on the camera app with good audio to boot?
I hope that makes sense. LOL
Yep, makes perfect sense. You can use (and I have used) USB mics with and iPhone using this same adapter. Here’s a video showing it in action - ua-cam.com/video/b0O7zrXLkrc/v-deo.html
Is it possible to use like a normal printer via usb through this?
Hey there. Good question? I haven't actually tried connecting a printer specifically via USB so not sure if this would work unfortunately. I only use my current printer via WiFi so can't even really test it out sorry.
Yo man if you want one of the best products for an iPhone iPad USB audio interface for on the go you should have a look at the Behringer uca222
Thanks for the tip my friend. I really must dice in to some of the Behringer products soon. They have a bit of a reputation as being “too cheap” but from what I’ve heard this is totally unfounded. Cheers for watching and taking the time to comment. 👍
Is this only used for audio and video or will it also work for data.
It works for any USB device that is class compliant. ua-cam.com/video/K95B2-KfMak/v-deo.html
And you can use USB drives too - ua-cam.com/video/3B7VPYe5rZc/v-deo.html
Hey Pete, is there away to use the lighting to USB 3 adapter on an iPad with 30pin port?
You’ll need the old 30 pin camera adapter like the one I show here / ua-cam.com/video/LdVAG_LwjBw/v-deo.html
Hi, I am not able to connect to my Yamaha EAD 10 drum module through this cable, can you please help me?
Perhaps it’s not class compliant? Check this video for details / ua-cam.com/video/K95B2-KfMak/v-deo.html
Can I transfer audio files from the Zoom H4n SD Card to IPad using this technique?
Hi Mychal. I haven’t found a way to do this. You can connect a camera and transfer photos and videos via USB, but audio is sadly not supported. The only way I’ve found is to go via a PC or Mac.
Not Working anymore with the ipad mini 4. Lossless and extra watt for the dragonfly cobalt, too Much ? Amy idea ?
That’s odd? You’re using the r genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter? studiolivetoday.com/usb
Just received a Blue Yeti ISB mic. Unfortunately using the iPad camera lightening adapter (with power also plugged into adapter) as described in various videos I can’t get the iPad (iOS 13.2.3] to recognize the blue yeti!? The kicker is that my iPhone is able to recognize it?! But I bought it for recording and production with my iPad. I am beyond frustrated and can’t seem to find any explanation as to why this is so. If anyone has any clue as to why please please let me know.
Joseph P Cannavo
That’s very odd? Hopefully you got this sorted. More info is here. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Very important question for me.
Does the update prompt when you first plug the camera cable into the iPad update the entire IOS. I need to use the adaptor but I also have to keep the IOS from like 6 years ago. Thx!
Should be fine. But I haven’t used on on a device with earlier than iOS 12 for a while. studiolivetoday.com/usb
@@PeteJohnsMusic thank you!!
U can plug a flash drive to that but it is only for photos. And
Ah, cool. Yes, it was originally called the “camera kit” so that makes sense. A shame you can’t transfer music and other files. Thanks for the feedback.
Hi great video could it be used for audio out thanks
Hey there. The adapter itself can’t be used for audio output but it can be used to connect to a USB interface, which is he beat way to input and output audio in iOS.
Here’s a video where I talk about interfaces and a few options.
Audio Interfaces - Which One is Right for You? (USB, iOS, Mac, PC) ua-cam.com/video/7QOXjfB1ExM/v-deo.html
So i have a fifine microphone what type of usb do i need because i bought the wrong one
Hey there. This should help you determine which one you will need. ua-cam.com/video/FIAYgbKT9Us/v-deo.html
Hey brother 😊 will this adapter work on the iPhone native camera app directly
Sure will. Just keep in minds that with a stereo interface it will put the audio on the left or right when recording so you might need to adjust this in editing.
Pete Johns please answer brother
First a big hiiii from India brother 🥰
brother I have zoom H1n mic , if I will connect through this adapter and use it to record my song in native camera app of iPhone , will it not come in stereo ? Because zoom h1n have 2 mics (left n right). Actually I want to record my songs through native camera app using zoom h1n
Do you know if this adapter would enable me to use an interface as a source for making calls/facetimes? I'm looking to be able to use my phone for meetings and other live calls, but with better fidelity on my end.
Yup. A USB mic or interface works well for this. ua-cam.com/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/v-deo.html
Pete Johns fantastic! Thanks for getting back to me!
Hey Pete, wanted to know if this adapter works on an iPhone 7? I have a Zoom G5n processor which I am thinking to directly connect to my iphone. Will it work, and will there be any recording issues like latency or anything? Love from India
Hey there. Haven’t tried this particular device. But yes, this adapter works with iPhone 7.
Also can the lightning port be used for monitoring with the apple earpods?
does this work with a video capture card for live streaming external video?
Not that I’m aware of.
Hi Pete, great video. Do you think this lightning to usb 3.0 camera adapter would be suitable for transferring photos and videos from the Bear Grylls video glasses? Is it the glasses that require the power or the iPhone? Would this adapter enable me to plug the usb of the glasses in whilst using a lightning cable to power my iPhone whilst it imports the files? The video glasses are 500mAh. I am a lorry driver and would like to transfer photos/videos taken with the glasses from my shift with friends throughout the day, however I would only have access to 12/24v sockets. Thanks in advance.
Interesting one Adam. It should work but every device is slightly different so hard to say without trying. You would definitely have the best chance of it working with this adapter.
Pete Johns thanks for the advice. I think I’ll invest and keep my fingers crossed!
Hi,
Does the Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter have to be charged, or is it permanently powered? Thanks.
Permanently bus powered by your device. 👍 studiolivetoday.com/usb
can you yse 2 nic in that setup?
Hi there. Are you looking to use 2 microphones at the same time? What you will need is a two input interface like the Steinberg UR22MK2 which can record multiple channels at once. Unfortunately there is now way to connect multiple USB microphones and use them at the same time.
Sir if I connect my PENDRIVE to Lightning to USB camera adapter then can I also Edit or Annotate my PDF files directly in my PENDRIVE without opening or saving a copy to another application.?
Please Urgently Reply because i see all UA-cam videos but I am confused & because basically for my Education purpose I want to Edit or Anotate my PDF files notes directly in my PENDRIVE .
Previously I using Wayona Sd card adapter but it’s problem is when I open my pdf files it always open with IUSB Pro application and I cannot edit my pdf directly on my Sd card .
So, Please Check this & Reply :))
Hey there. No idea sorry. Probably not. iOS doesn’t support editing directly in USB drives in most apps.
i got mine yesterday after returning it to jb hifi since it stopped working with my ipad 8, but somehow worked with my iphone 11 pro max and 5s. guess what, after it got replaced, it still didn’t work with my ipad. i’ve tried everything, rebooting the ipad, resetting all settings and it still doesn’t work. can you help me?
Might be an issue with your Lightning port then perhaps?
@@PeteJohnsMusic i doubt that it has an issue with the lightning port, since it charges fine whenever i plug a charger in
Can I also connect a mouse to a Iphone?
Hey there. Yes, you can now in iOS 13 and iPadOS 13. Here’s a video showing this in action - ua-cam.com/video/bLI2DO6kEXk/v-deo.html
Hey Pete, does this still translate to my interface (UMC202HD)? I thought it needed 48 V for phantom power. Any idea if this kinda setup will still properly power it?
Also Pete, this’ll work for my iPhone too right? Not just iPad?
Hey there my friend. This video should answer all your questions about powering your interface while connecting - ua-cam.com/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/v-deo.html
You can also use the additional Lightning port on the adapter to power your interface and this works most of the time, but a powered hub like I shoe in the video is definitely the best option in my opinion.
Can I use the USB portion of the adapter to watch movies from usb drive while my ipad is charging?
Yup, you can indeed. This video will show you how. ua-cam.com/video/3B7VPYe5rZc/v-deo.html
Is it possible to connect a usb wired mouse to the lightning cable? Asking cause I recently bought a bluetooth keyboard only to find out its kinda hard to use without a mouse. Any suggestions? Also, I have the iPad Air IOS 12.3.1 3rd generation
Hey there my friend. Unfortunately mouse support is not available in iOS 12. It is coming in iOS 13 as an accessibility feature however so once you are upgraded to the new iOS (rumoured for around September), you will be able to use a mouse with the lightning to USB adapter. 👍
Thank you! This helps, for now I’ll be using touch screen to maneuver around in college classes
You may have answered this... but can you go from a USB out on a preamp or sound mixer through the adapter, and use the sound you're capturing on a quality XLR mic while filming using an iPhone?
Hey Tom. Yep, you sure can. The only potential problem is with some audio interfaces that use two channels as they will put the mic audio on the left or right channel, but this can be easily fixed in editing. Thanks for watching and for your question.
@@PeteJohnsMusic I appreciate it. Thank you for your quick reply.
Very welcome.
SUPOORT HEadphone mh752 7.1 seround.?
Not sure. If it requires a specific driver to work, probably not. ua-cam.com/video/K95B2-KfMak/v-deo.html
I’m so frustrated I’ve just bought a genuine one and it isn’t working! It’s still saying that it’s taking up too much power. It’s confusing everywhere on the internet it says you can do it but I’ve tried so many different ways to plug my midi keyboard into my phone and none of the ways are working. Starting to doubt it, why wouldn’t they just make one specifically for a phone. It’s long buying a camera adapter and not even using it for what it’s meant to be used for. Starting to doubt it it really works.
Hey there. Are you using a powered USB hub? Some devices draw too much power for your iPhone or iPad. This video will explain things - ua-cam.com/video/gwNqV1W3fPU/v-deo.html
And this website has more info - studiolivetoday.com/usb
Good day sir!
I want to use my ROG STRIX FUSION 500 and i want to connect it to my iphone 8 plus. If i buy this and buy a power usb hub will it work? Pls reply my good sir!:) ill wait thank you
I’m not familiar with that sorry? If it’s a USB device ask doesn’t required drivers to work (class compliant) then it should work - ua-cam.com/video/K95B2-KfMak/v-deo.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic so the only thing i need is the usb 3 adapter? if it requires a drivers to work do i need both adapter and power hub?
Does it support the 10.5 inch iPad Pro?
Yes, it supports any iPad with a lightning connection.
Hi..thks for your video.. I have one question.. could this adapter compatible with line 6 ux2 audio interface?
Hi there. I haven’t actually tried it with this interface so I can’t say for sure. It will work with any “class compliant” interface. That is, an interface which doesn’t require a separate driver to operate, as there is no way to install drivers in iOS. I would suggest asking on a forum or group like the GarageBand Users group on Facebook. studiolivetoday.com/gbu
Pete Johns hi thks for ur feedback... ux2 is not supported but I ended up with Focusrite itrack solo..
Great stuff. I have heard good things about the iTrack Solo but haven’t used it myself. Let me know how it goes for you.
All I want to do is plug in my (USB). external hard drive so I can watch the movies I have on my iPad. What would I need? It looks like these are an awful lot of different accessories I might not need. Any input appreciated. :)
Hey there. Unfortunately USB flash drives and hard drives are generally unsupported by iOS. There are a few options, on of the best being the RavPower File Hub which can help you connect and access USB drives in iOS.
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks :) Yeah, I love my Apple products, but it's PAIN in the ass to modify most things. lol I created my own ringtones and alert sounds, and there's a bug that makes them reset every day. Blargh. They're working on it, though.
Bummer! Yes, having such a locked down ecosystem with Apple products is both an advantage for compatibility and a disadvantage when you want to get things done.
