All, I am new to this forum and am trying to use my ipad air as a means to record my music via 8 pin small lightning connecter to interface my usb midi keyboard to garageband.
I have bought three different camera connection kits that are just mini connecter to usb plug and ones that have usb and SD card inputs. None of these work. I get nothing or not certified hardware and might not work. I have tried all the tricks from YouTube and other threads with no luck. I am running ios 8.1.3.
I can record input from headphone jack with irig but am wanting to explore digital input via the lightning connecter. At this point I am scratching my head and can't figure out why I can't get anything to work. I don't think my ipad is broke and I am sceptical to spend lots more money on dead end connectors. I have not bought the apple version of this connector due to extreme cost compared to cheaper versions as I believe these are non active hardware (passive) and think a usb connector is a usb connector...regardless of who built them. Anyone else have this problem and fix? I searched the forum for any previous post on this topic and found none....any ideas???????
