    Been using IK Multimedia products for some time. Always thrilled with the results. When I switched to the new iPad the USB-c to USB has given me some “fits”. The lightning cable always worked flawlessly. Using genuine Apple adapter, but my iRig keys I/O 25 audio drops during first minute. Once I turn off and start again everything works well. One great thing about IK is the customer service so already have a ticket and we are working on the issue. Hopefully all new products will include the USB c cable!

      Quick update. After emailing back and forth with IK multimedia, I’ve learned they are working on a fix for this issue. Apples USB C move is presenting an issue with the iRig Keys I/O. Apple you 🤬!!! Luckily I have the iRig HD 2 which works fine using USB. The pandemic has caused a slowdown in their efforts to create a new cable that works with all new iPads. 🤷‍♂️

    I have an iRig I/O Duo. Why would I want this Pre? Sorry, didn’t mean to “sound” snarky, just typing here. I’m just a dweeb trying to figure this stuff out. I thought the I/O might be higher signal to noise ratio because it goes directly to digital, and additionally lets me go into my iPad lightning port, because soon many devices might not have a 3.5 port. The I/O frees up the 3.5 jack on my iPad

    • @PeteJohnsMusic
      @PeteJohnsMusic  3 года назад +1

      Yup. This is more of an entry level interface as it’s about a third the cost and uses the analog input. The iRig Pro I/O and Duo are lower noise and using digital connections will give you a much cleaner signal.
