I love this product as it works extremely well with Garage Band on my Ipad

iRig MIDI is an ultra-compact standard Core MIDI interface for iOS that connects any MIDI compatible device to the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad
IRig MIDI connects MIDI keyboards, drum machines, drum pads, pedal boards and more to an iOS device to control not only the included SampleTank FREE but also a world of MIDI-compatible apps such as Garage Band
You can also use iOS apps to control external MIDI equipment such as sound modules, DAWs or lighting systems right from the mobile device
iRig MIDI is the only compact iOS MIDI interface sporting 3 MIDI ports: IN/OUT/THRU
These connect to any standard MIDI jacks using the included 2 x 1.6m/5.2' cables
iRig MIDI also has 2 LEDs for displaying the MIDI activity on the IN and OUT ports
IRig MIDI also exclusively provides a micro USB port - with included cable - that connects to any standard USB power supply source so that the iOS device can stay fully powered during long sessions
An iOS device as a synthesizer/instrument There are many instrument apps for the iPhone/iPad, and it's fun to play them on their multi-touch screen
But this is impractical when it comes to using them as a live instrument
iRig MIDI has the ability to use any MIDI keyboard controller (from home digital pianos to advanced synthesizers or computer controllers) as an input source an iOS device to easily control instrument apps in a familiar way
The included SampleTank for iOS also offers a high-quality mobile alternative to traditional software and hardware sound modules and has been studied from the ground up to work as a live performance instrument where it can access as a vast 750 MB library of over 400 ready-to-use sounds
An iOS device as a drum machine/sequencer/recorder Connecting one of these devices to the iRig MIDI input allows the hardware device to play an iOS instrument app or to use the rhythm patterns of an external device with an iOS app as a drum and groove sound module.
