Sir,i'm following ur chnl for last few months n they r really amazing.i'm looking for a solution n i think ur the only person can help me out...i use iphone 7 with bias fx and i wish to use a melo audio midicommander in a portable format.prob is iphn 7 dont have a 3.5 headphn out but having only a lightning output..my question is can the usb powerd hub be powered by a mobile smartphne charger? So i can attach i phn to that camera kit to go to usb hub n power it by a mobile smartphone charger..n add the melo audio midi commander n berhinger 202hd interface to usb hub...will this work??
Hey there my friend. Yes, if you are looking to power a powered hub using a power bank or portable battery you can definitely do this, but you will need an adapter for the power cable. Take a look at this video where I show how to create this sort of setup - ruclips.net/video/k2LpLjHnKGw/видео.html
Hey Pete. I have an iPad Air 3rd gen. (Lightning connector) Scarlet 2i2 3rd gen. Oxygen61 midi keyboard I have the camera connector/adaptor and an insignia usb 3.0 powered hub. I want to record my midi keyboard and then run my vocals through the 2i2 and monitor with headphones plugged into the 2i2 all into garageband. I have followed the steps you have on the video Multiple times. I have plugged and unplugged multiple times and cannot get them all to work together. What am I missing here? Could this just be the insignia 3.0 powered hub I am using possibly? I am running out of hair to pull out!
Great info thanks. I was scratching my head looking at some other videos, because most of them don't make it clear that the audio is routed in and through the iPad and then back out!
Pete, there are good videos online that explain how to make a home studio with the ipad, but this one is what made things clear for me. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Greetings from Pittsburgh!
One of the best, Prof. Here is your low-cost home studio config with incredible recording ability. Pete could have plugged in a guitar instead of a mic into the Steinberg. I will immediately change my recording setup as a result of this video. Didn't think the keyboard could be always in the loop because I didn't realize the powered hub would power it, a Game Changer! Pete, you've shown us all what a minimal recording config might look like. This is really important guys! Thank you.
I needed to power the Steinberg with the 5v plug. Just plugging it into the powered hub alone didn't work. Did you have to as well? You have a newer model.
@@PeteJohnsMusic I do have that switch but my Steinberg wouldn't work without powering it with the 5V connection. The USB into the powered hub as well. Odd that you don't have to. It works fine, it just needs to be powered. You have a different model of the UR12.
Crazy, crazy, crazy! Your video's are up there with the best infomercials less the 1800 number. I'm sure out of shot you have a reminder not to use the catchphrase "But I know you want more". Most enjoyable, practical & very helpful. 👏.
This is exactly what I needed! I recently got my first iPhone and I had a hunch something like this was possible but didn't know how to connect the dots. Now I do! Thanks and cheers!
Not sure sorry. Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord.
Hails Pete, love your videos. Just recorded my first song and it came out not bad at all but all thanks to you, you were the one that I got a lot of info from

Thank you for the videos. I have an iRig and just bought a Launchkey 25. However, the iRig doesn't seem to pick up the Launchkey when connecting it through midi. Very frustrating. So, I'm going to try using the Tendak USB hub, and see how it goes.
@@PeteJohnsMusic It's working! Still don't know why the iRig MIDI In doesn't pick up the keyboard, but it's working with the USB hub. Thanks so much for the videos and insight. Terrific stuff!
You are so Profi! Since 3 days I try to connect the same way with iPad Pro with usb C, the last aim I cannot solve. I want all be connected to my speakers, without Bluetooth, may you have an idea???? Thanks
Hi there. Not sure exactly what you’re trying to do sorry. Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord. USB connecting info is also here. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Yes I have the iRig Pro Duo on the way. It is almost identical to this one but with a second mic/guitar channel - ruclips.net/video/KL7dlCqYxic/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic yep, I think it’s great and no need for powered USB etc, the iOS can power it independently and the preamps are good enough even for a large diaphragm mic. I think mine was $450AUD, but has made a mini studio for me possible.
Is there a newer version of this hub ? I know this video is 5 years old now and there’s a million things to buy that look like will work but have things I’m not sure I need . I just want a powered usb hub with a few usb c connections so I can power interface and connect midi keyboards.
Here’s another option that I use these days. ruclips.net/video/_u_rvSLPYdM/видео.htmlsi=5Z_TrBtX0-lbEDB1 All my other current recommendations are at studiolivetoday.com/gear
I have the MPC One ☝️ and I want to use my iPhone 📱 as a sound module recording midi and audio directly into the MPC ONE sequencer. Please tell me the steps
Thank you very much for your help. Just want to ask you if can I install some vst plugins as well if I using iPhone 11. I I want to install Korg triton vst in GarageBand
Thank you friend, your video is very good. says something to me, connected to my audio interface, the quality and performance of the ipad becomes better ?
Hey there. An audio interface will get you better analog to digital conversion and better quality preamps and inputs for recording. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Now you have seen me last few days asking questions haha thanks. One more. I'm planning on purchasing UR12 after watching your video. Is UR12 able to handle midi keyboard as well? Also, when you connected Tendak to the UR22C, I'm assuming you used usb A to usb C. If UR12 works with midi, I'm assuming I will need to use usb A to usb mini(?) Or whatever it's called?
Hey there. So the UR12 doesn’t have direct MIDI support. If you’re using USB MIDI keyboards you just connect these as separate devices to the powered hub. You can then use them together when recording as I show in the video. The Steinberg UR22C has MIDI in and out if you’re using an older style MIDI keyboard - ruclips.net/video/2BW1tqOqJ9k/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic I ended up purchasing UR22C. Based on your video, now I will need usb b to usb a cable (for MIDI from keyboard to the hub) and usb a (3.0) to usb c (from hub to UR22C) to connect like you did. Hopefully I won’t run into any problem!
I'm trying to use the same connection system as in this video, I even use an interface that you indicated in another video of yours, but I can't use 2 controllers with the music apps. I wanted independent sounds for each controller. How do I do it? The best sound apps aren't separating the midi channels, i.e. they're playing the sounds on the 2 controllers.
Hi Pete, great vid. Hope you can help me. I want to add the meloaudio midi commander (foot controller) so I can use with bias fx2 . I have the irig micro amp with built in audio interface,which I connect my guitar to. Would this set up be possible your method... thanks
Depends on the software you’re using. GarageBand for instance doesn’t support a lot of external MIDI controls but other apps do. I would ask over at the GarageBand Users or Create Record Release Facebook groups.
Outstanding video Pete! Question: does the Tendak USB hub also charge your iPad when connected using the Apple adapter? If not is there a way too do so? TY
Yes. The Tendak hub has a power only port on the front too. Just connect this to the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter. Http://studiolivetoday.com/usb
Sir, does all of that rig works with igrand piano? I have a plan to use my older yamaha p105 digital piano with igrand piano apps using android smart device.
Hey there. I’m not an Android user so not sure sorry? Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord.
Any idea how to find a microUSB to Lightning MIDI cable? I want to connect a Casio CT-S400 keyboard to my iPad 7. The MIDI port for the Casio is microUSB and, of course, the other end must be a Lightning connector. I can find microUSB to Lightning cables, but none of them are MIDI cables.
Hi Pete, great video! Can I use an alternative device for the Apple Lightning to USB3 Camera Adapter as it is not available from Amazon. Can you give me a link? Greetings from the Netherlands.
Hey there my friend. In my experience the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter is the only one that works reliably. I have links over in my gear guide. studiolivetoday.com/gear
Hello there! Thank you for this video! Just wanted to confirm... then I couldn't use.. for example... my Shure MVi or Shure MV7 in the USB C port of my hub... and a iRig portable guitar interface at the same time to record my guitar and vocals? I would need ie. a Scarlett 2i2, if I wanted to record vocals and guitar at the same time on my ipad?
That’s correct. Only one device can act as the audio in and out at a time, so you’d need a device that accepts guitar and mic input like the iRig Duo, and use an XLR mic, or just swap them when you need each one. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Thank you 🙏🏼. I wanted to confirm my suspensions. I’ll be picking up a Scarlett when I need guitar and vocals. Thank you so much for your response and your videos. They have been helpful as they deal specifically with the type of set I go for - iOS and GarageBand.
Pete I have all the same stuff from this vid but I have the m-audio mini32 and my iPad is 2020 pro so my usb adaptor is newer. I can’t hear any sound through headphones when I have is set up like this. Is there a setting in garageB I have to change ? If I plug the keyboard into the USB to iPad, it plays fine, but when I plug it into the usb hub there is no souls through the steinburg. Thoughts? Anyone can answer!
Hey there. You’ll either need an audio interface or something like this to monitor the sound - ruclips.net/video/wpu9EOTyur4/видео.html The headphone jack won’t work if you have any audio input/output device connected.
Mixer and interface won’t be able to connect at the same time as you can only have one audio input and output at once I’m afraid. ruclips.net/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/видео.html
With mixers you mean studio monitors right? Your mixers/monitors are connected to the audio interface, is this required or just recommended because it enhances the quality? I did some research regarding it, please correct me if I’m mistaken. They say they don’t recommend studio monitors working with ios without audio interface? I mean I’m not interested in recording vocals or anything thru microphone that’s why I’m asking if an audio interface is really necessary for ios and studio monitors. Thank you for your patience and heart for sharing/helping us here. It really help us have more fun with making music thru your tips/guide.
Hey there. Yes, you’ll need either a mixer or audio interfaces to connect to your device and then you can use monitor speakers and/or headphones to monitor and hear your audio playback. This video might help. ruclips.net/video/AZ6Cfdfoe8Q/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic sir another question, how about using headphone amp? Will it work like an audio interface? Like what i’ve said before, i’m not nterested in recording vocals or anything thru mic. Just qwant to be able to hear it more clearly and in real time or as much as possible no latency while using midi keyboard if possible.
So you have to have a mixer to hear the sound? In addition to the interface, or did you say that by mistake? Are the speakers attached to the audio interface?
Hey there. Yes, you’ll need some sort of audio device if your iPhone or iPad doesn’t have a headphone jack. This video will help. ruclips.net/video/wpu9EOTyur4/видео.html
OMG!!! Once fuckin again thank you!!! Pet, please don’t stop making these videos!!! You’re absolutely a master, teacher of the art of music and recording! Mind blown!
Android is a little trickier as there are so many different variants of hardware and software. Much of the information is the same, but you'll need a USB-C adapter instead of Lightning - ruclips.net/video/3Zyb1ISy3wk/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks. I already have a usb-c 8 in 1 hub and a normal 7 in 1 powered usb hub and the website says thats all i really need but i was hoping to see a demonstration of this being implemented but since android producers are rare and most smartphone producers use apple, if you could atleast do a test run with a similar setup for me and explain it, itd really help me out alot
Thanks for the info. Your videos are so helpful. Keep doing more. If possible can you review the M-Audio Air Hub with iPad/iPhone. Latency and other stuff. Thanks
Hi Pete! Thank you for your help! Excuse me, but I have a question. I bought the original Apple lightning /usb3 adapter like yours! Can I use an unpowered usb hub to connect a Nektar Impact lx25+ and a Yamaha mg10xu? (yamaha has its own power supply). Thank you 🧡
Hey there. So, this may work, especially if you are plugged in to power in the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter. A powered hub is still my recommendation however to be sure.
Hey there my friend. Unfortunately not I’m afraid. iOS can only accept one input and output source at a time. You would need to go for an interface which supports the number of interfaces you need like this one - ruclips.net/video/l3xDq-bnwK8/видео.html
Hey there. If you use the Tendak powered hub (or similar) and the Lightning to USB 3 adapter you can use the dedicated charging port to power your iPad or iPhone. ruclips.net/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic thank you sir.. i had that camera kit adapter.. but i haven't used it in so long i don't what rock i put in under.. (i bought another version of it on amazon, that has 3. USB ports.. but .. its a piece of junk) so, time to go back to the original (will put in the face mask, get on my electric scooter & hunt it down). Again thanks for the quick reply
@@PeteJohnsMusic thanks. I plug my Modal synths in to use their app but cable noise is a real issue. I thought putting distance between the source and the connection might make the issue better or worse depending as you say on the quality of the equipment.
Hi nice setup but I am confused. Why do I need the USB to Lightning adapter? Wouldn’t it be possible to connect the iPad directly to the hub with the regular Lignhning data cable, which comes with the iPad and which has an USB A plug? Or is the adapter really necessary so that the digital data can come through? What’ am I missing?
Pete Johns Hi thanks. Do you mean it is a smart adapter with some electronics inside and not merely a « dumb » adapter replacing the Lightning socket by an USB A socket?
Not sure sorry as I don’t use Android. But the interface is class compliant so doesn’t need drivers to run, which means it should be compatible with most platforms.
No. iOS only supports one USB audio input/output device at once. ruclips.net/video/OzX6jbTm0Hc/видео.html

@@PeteJohnsMusic that sucks. I make an podcast with two Yeti (was the cheapest option). But I would like to get an tablet instead of a laptop. So this is a dealbreaker.
Hi Peter…. Your videos have been a great guide to using GarageBand with IPad. I’ve recently started recording my band at rehearsal with the Beringer Uphoria 8 channel interface with some very promising results. Question. Is it possible to add a second interface to increase amount of mics / channels I can record simultaneously…??
Hi Pete... Thank you for your videos. I tried connecting my USB hub to my iPhone through the white lighting device but the light of the hub keeps tripping off and it won't connect. I had to connect the hub directly to a socket and then connect my audio interface directly to my phone. How do I add a keyboard since the hub isn't directly connected to my phone but to a power socket?
Hi there. Make sure you are using a powered hub and genuine Apple Lightning to USB adapter. This video might help - ruclips.net/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/видео.html
Pete i have M Audio Fast track solo and also irig pro duo. Can i connect both? Sorry cos I’m new in DAW especially i just downloaded a free trial of Logic Pro X. How can i setup with my new imac if I don’t use the ipad setup? Hope give some advise as a new user. Thanks
Pete have you try out new Apogee Symphony Desktop interface? Actually I’m looking forward to buy irig AXE io from ik multimedia. Sorry Pete to ask you too many questions.
If I use a powered usb hub just like you did, would I be able to plug in 2 different audio interfaces. And example, use a usb scarlet for garage band, and another interface behringer for output a different app?
Hey there. So, this can work though iOS doesn’t work great with multiple inputs and outputs. Powered hubs are super handy so worth picking one up anyway.
I need your help. I have the Motu m2 & a shure condenser mike, and record my video with my iphone. Playback when listening back only plays on only one track on my iPad. Im trying to edit only on my ipad. Not use computer software. Is there a way to fix this for my RUclips videos?
Hey there. You’ll need to convert the video and fill the audio from the left/right to make it mono. LumaFusion will do this for you, or some other video converter apps.
@@PeteJohnsMusic i used the panning setting in LF, 25/75, I thought maybe I was just missing something in my process. I promised my viewership a video and did not want to give bad info. Thanks for getting back to me! You make great videos!
Hey there. I use KRK Rokits. You can check out links over on my gear guide - studiolivetoday.com/gear I use the balanced TRS outs in the back of my audio interface. For recording videos, the output goes via my mixer (Zoom LiveTrak L-8... also linked at studiolivetoday.com/gear).
Great info! Just what I was looking for. Thank you so much for posting this. I'm going to buy the USB hub and Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter through your links. Will the Steinberg UR12 work the same way? Or does it not do MIDI? I'll need to input vocals, would like option to input guitars at some point, and would like to have MIDI option to use external keyboard. I'm on a tight budget and looking for good budget/quality balance for an interface to use with iPad Pro 9.7" (from a few years back). Any tips much welcomed! Thanks again.
Hello there! Thanks for watching and for supporting the channel. Yes, the UR12 is a great interface too and the only drawbacks are no MIDI, no stereo TRS input and no balanced TRS output. You can however use the hub and a USB MIDI keyboard as I show in the video. More details are at studiolivetoday.com/usb
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks so much for the reply! I've decided to order the UR22C. The drawbacks you mentioned for the UR12 in your reply above convinced me! Do any of your videos address how to hook up an iPad Pro (it's a few years old) to an older model desktop LCD screen? I thought I saw something in one of your videos about this, but could not find the reference again. Or maybe it was just wishful thinking that I saw it?... LOL! Cheers! Thank you again for your super helpful vids. :)
Hi, thanks for the content. Been following you for the past week. Very helpful. One question: I can’t get my setup to work on instagram live etc. it is just working when recording in certain apps. Any suggestion how to make my studio available live in instagram ?
Yeah, some iOS apps default back to the built in mic and don’t like USB audio for some reason. I’ll continue testing these in the future but it can vary across different appsz
It will surly work I use the normal camera adapter with a powered usb hub.you can get many cheap powered usb hubs.if the one Pete recommend is out of your budget then u can try and get an orico 4 port powered usb hub and it works just as well as in the video.

Hey there. An audio interface will get you better analog to digital conversion and better quality preamps and inputs for recording. studiolivetoday.com/usb
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks !! my need is to use with midi controller !!
Hi, can this process be used for live looping performances?
Yup, if you’re using the right software/app it provides the audio input/output that you’ll need.
Your tutorials are so good. Thank you so much!
You’re very welcome my friend. Appreciate you taking the time to comment. 👍
How I can recording my digital piano using iPhone 11 + ur22 c interface + GarageBand
Please
The audio form your piano? This video will help - ruclips.net/video/Dbz8sxuy5X0/видео.html
Now you have seen me last few days asking questions haha thanks. One more. I'm planning on purchasing UR12 after watching your video. Is UR12 able to handle midi keyboard as well? Also, when you connected Tendak to the UR22C, I'm assuming you used usb A to usb C. If UR12 works with midi, I'm assuming I will need to use usb A to usb mini(?) Or whatever it's called?
Hey there. So the UR12 doesn’t have direct MIDI support. If you’re using USB MIDI keyboards you just connect these as separate devices to the powered hub. You can then use them together when recording as I show in the video. The Steinberg UR22C has MIDI in and out if you’re using an older style MIDI keyboard - ruclips.net/video/2BW1tqOqJ9k/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic I ended up purchasing UR22C. Based on your video, now I will need usb b to usb a cable (for MIDI from keyboard to the hub) and usb a (3.0) to usb c (from hub to UR22C) to connect like you did. Hopefully I won’t run into any problem!
I'm trying to use the same connection system as in this video, I even use an interface that you indicated in another video of yours, but I can't use 2 controllers with the music apps. I wanted independent sounds for each controller. How do I do it? The best sound apps aren't separating the midi channels, i.e. they're playing the sounds on the 2 controllers.
GarageBand doesn’t let you use multiple MIDI controllers. Logic Pro might? But haven’t tried it. Http://logicipad.com/
Hi Pete, great vid. Hope you can help me. I want to add the meloaudio midi commander (foot controller) so I can use with bias fx2 . I have the irig micro amp with built in audio interface,which I connect my guitar to. Would this set up be possible your method... thanks
Depends on the software you’re using. GarageBand for instance doesn’t support a lot of external MIDI controls but other apps do. I would ask over at the GarageBand Users or Create Record Release Facebook groups.
Outstanding video Pete! Question: does the Tendak USB hub also charge your iPad when connected using the Apple adapter? If not is there a way too do so? TY
Yes. The Tendak hub has a power only port on the front too. Just connect this to the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter. Http://studiolivetoday.com/usb
How do you charge the ipad? I have seen a charging usb to lightning port on the usb expander like you are showing.
You’ll need the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter so you can charge your iPad at the same time. ruclips.net/video/gwNqV1W3fPU/видео.html
Would I be able to play 2 separate keyboards with this method?
No unfortunately. I believe GarageBand iOS only support one MIDI input device at a time. studiolivetoday.com/garageband
@@PeteJohnsMusic ah I figured so… thank you!!!
Sir, does all of that rig works with igrand piano? I have a plan to use my older yamaha p105 digital piano with igrand piano apps using android smart device.
Hey there. I’m not an Android user so not sure sorry? Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord.
Do you have a recommendation for sustain pedal or is the sustain in Garage Band ok
Any sustain pedal that has a polarity switch and a standard 1/4” adapter will work great.
Curious to know if your tendak works on your iPad pro 2020.
Hey there. It does, but I need to use the USB-C to USB-A adapter you get this done. Trying some others soon and will be making videos about these.
I still cant get my focusrite to power up with the lightning cable
Focusrite Scarlett interface? And using a Lightning to USB 3 cable? Any powered USB hub included in the setup?
I have guitar software on my iPad but record on my mac. Is there a way to connect my iPad to MacBook and use that software like a plugging ?
Not specifically sorry. You'd like need to use the iPad versions and then create project or audio files to bring in to the Mac.
Any idea how to find a microUSB to Lightning MIDI cable? I want to connect a Casio CT-S400 keyboard to my iPad 7. The MIDI port for the Casio is microUSB and, of course, the other end must be a Lightning connector. I can find microUSB to Lightning cables, but none of them are MIDI cables.
I would use the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter and adapt from micro to standard USB personally. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Hi Pete, great video! Can I use an alternative device for the Apple Lightning to USB3 Camera Adapter as it is not available from Amazon.
Can you give me a link? Greetings from the Netherlands.
Hey there my friend. In my experience the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter is the only one that works reliably. I have links over in my gear guide. studiolivetoday.com/gear
Great video. Does this setup charge the ipad?
If you use the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter and plug in to AC power, a battery or a hub then yes you can.
I’m in love with your channel thanks and keep this good content up :)
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Glad you're enjoying the channel.
Hello there! Thank you for this video! Just wanted to confirm... then I couldn't use.. for example... my Shure MVi or Shure MV7 in the USB C port of my hub... and a iRig portable guitar interface at the same time to record my guitar and vocals? I would need ie. a Scarlett 2i2, if I wanted to record vocals and guitar at the same time on my ipad?
That’s correct. Only one device can act as the audio in and out at a time, so you’d need a device that accepts guitar and mic input like the iRig Duo, and use an XLR mic, or just swap them when you need each one. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Thank you 🙏🏼. I wanted to confirm my suspensions. I’ll be picking up a Scarlett when I need guitar and vocals. Thank you so much for your response and your videos. They have been helpful as they deal specifically with the type of set I go for - iOS and GarageBand.
Can i use a single usb apple ligtning cable instead of the cckit?
Generally not. It won’t create the right USB bridge unless you use the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter. studiolivetoday.com/usb
@@PeteJohnsMusic is genuine Apple cable in one extreme is lightning in the other is usb enter
Pete I have all the same stuff from this vid but I have the m-audio mini32 and my iPad is 2020 pro so my usb adaptor is newer. I can’t hear any sound through headphones when I have is set up like this. Is there a setting in garageB I have to change ? If I plug the keyboard into the USB to iPad, it plays fine, but when I plug it into the usb hub there is no souls through the steinburg. Thoughts? Anyone can answer!
Hey there. You’ll either need an audio interface or something like this to monitor the sound - ruclips.net/video/wpu9EOTyur4/видео.html
The headphone jack won’t work if you have any audio input/output device connected.
Hi can you show the diagram of this complete setup?
Haven’t got one at this stage. But a good idea for a future video.
Maybe you just have a draw of the diagram and put it in the video or your website.
Super tutorial 👌. I have a audio interface, midi keyboard and a mixer table. How do I connect all this to my ipad/iPhone?
Mixer and interface won’t be able to connect at the same time as you can only have one audio input and output at once I’m afraid. ruclips.net/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic ok i see, but a mixer to an ipad/iphone is that possible to have a better recording sound?
With mixers you mean studio monitors right? Your mixers/monitors are connected to the audio interface, is this required or just recommended because it enhances the quality? I did some research regarding it, please correct me if I’m mistaken. They say they don’t recommend studio monitors working with ios without audio interface? I mean I’m not interested in recording vocals or anything thru microphone that’s why I’m asking if an audio interface is really necessary for ios and studio monitors. Thank you for your patience and heart for sharing/helping us here. It really help us have more fun with making music thru your tips/guide.
Hey there. Yes, you’ll need either a mixer or audio interfaces to connect to your device and then you can use monitor speakers and/or headphones to monitor and hear your audio playback. This video might help.
ruclips.net/video/AZ6Cfdfoe8Q/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic thanks again!.
@@PeteJohnsMusic sir another question, how about using headphone amp? Will it work like an audio interface? Like what i’ve said before, i’m not nterested in recording vocals or anything thru mic. Just qwant to be able to hear it more clearly and in real time or as much as possible no latency while using midi keyboard if possible.
Would this work if I want to record only my voice in the camera app of the iPhone?
Yup. Any apps including the camera will work with a USB mic or a microphone plugged in via an audio interface.
Thanks for taking the time to explain. Much appreciated.
You’re very welcome my friend. I hope you get value from the other videos here on the channel and consider subscribing. 👍
So you have to have a mixer to hear the sound? In addition to the interface, or did you say that by mistake? Are the speakers attached to the audio interface?
Hey there. Yes, you’ll need some sort of audio device if your iPhone or iPad doesn’t have a headphone jack. This video will help. ruclips.net/video/wpu9EOTyur4/видео.html
Pete what do you think of Focus Right audio interface for live band
Hey there. For live performance and recording I tend to prefer a mixer. ruclips.net/video/vBectYpoVIY/видео.html
studiolivetoday.com/gear
If I have a powered audio interface, do I have to use a powered usb hub?
Generally not, no. But you will want the Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter to ensure a reliable connection.
OMG!!! Once fuckin again thank you!!! Pet, please don’t stop making these videos!!! You’re absolutely a master, teacher of the art of music and recording! Mind blown!
Heh heh. Thanks my friend. Appreciate your support and kind words. 🙏
thanx thanx nearly nearly How do I get an audio interface with an usb connection or does it go in the power sockit.
This video will help explain this - ruclips.net/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/видео.html
Pete Johns thank you sooooo v v much will keep trying and check out facebook.kind regards and rainbows to you.
I have a question. When you record piano playing using midi, is that stereo or mono?
Depends on the virtual instrument and settings. Usually stereo. All tracks in GarageBand are stereo. Other DAWs, just make sure stereo is set.
Hi im looking to run a setup like this but on android. Can u do a video using an android phone instead? Really could use the help
Android is a little trickier as there are so many different variants of hardware and software. Much of the information is the same, but you'll need a USB-C adapter instead of Lightning - ruclips.net/video/3Zyb1ISy3wk/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks. I already have a usb-c 8 in 1 hub and a normal 7 in 1 powered usb hub and the website says thats all i really need but i was hoping to see a demonstration of this being implemented but since android producers are rare and most smartphone producers use apple, if you could atleast do a test run with a similar setup for me and explain it, itd really help me out alot
Hi. Great video. In this setup if I buy a usb mic than I don’t need interface, only when I want to connect 2 mic or guitar ?
Yup. You’ll only need an interface for a guitar or XLR mic.
What cable did you use to connect your hub to the interface? One end was usb a but didn’t get to see the other end. Thank you for your video!
This video will show it more clearly. ruclips.net/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/видео.html
Thanks for the info. Your videos are so helpful. Keep doing more.
If possible can you review the M-Audio Air Hub with iPad/iPhone. Latency and other stuff. Thanks
Thanks my friend. Not familiar with this actually? I’ll take a look.
Hi Pete! Thank you for your help! Excuse me, but I have a question. I bought the original Apple lightning /usb3 adapter like yours! Can I use an unpowered usb hub to connect a Nektar Impact lx25+ and a Yamaha mg10xu? (yamaha has its own power supply). Thank you 🧡
Hey there. So, this may work, especially if you are plugged in to power in the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter. A powered hub is still my recommendation however to be sure.
@@PeteJohnsMusic thank you, see you on your next Studio live! :)
Is it possible to have two audio interfaces connected at the same time to an iPad? Thanks
Hey there my friend. Unfortunately not I’m afraid. iOS can only accept one input and output source at a time. You would need to go for an interface which supports the number of interfaces you need like this one - ruclips.net/video/l3xDq-bnwK8/видео.html
is what you are doing there also supplying power to the iPad so that it stays charged??
Hey there. If you use the Tendak powered hub (or similar) and the Lightning to USB 3 adapter you can use the dedicated charging port to power your iPad or iPhone. ruclips.net/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic thank you sir.. i had that camera kit adapter.. but i haven't used it in so long i don't what rock i put in under.. (i bought another version of it on amazon, that has 3. USB ports.. but .. its a piece of junk) so, time to go back to the original (will put in the face mask, get on my electric scooter & hunt it down). Again thanks for the quick reply
Good luck my friend!!
Does this reduce USB noise?
Hey there. A decent quality USB hub can ensure you don’t get any interference or issues. studiolivetoday.com/usb
@@PeteJohnsMusic thanks. I plug my Modal synths in to use their app but cable noise is a real issue. I thought putting distance between the source and the connection might make the issue better or worse depending as you say on the quality of the equipment.
This is great! Quick question, does the iPad charge as it's plugged in or do you send in a separate power source for iPad?
There’s a few options for this. Check out the links here for more info. studiolivetoday.com/usb.
Hi nice setup but I am confused. Why do I need the USB to Lightning adapter? Wouldn’t it be possible to connect the iPad directly to the hub with the regular Lignhning data cable, which comes with the iPad and which has an USB A plug? Or is the adapter really necessary so that the digital data can come through? What’ am I missing?
Hey there. Yes, the Lightning to USB adapter is required to create the proper host that can transfer data and power.
Pete Johns Hi thanks. Do you mean it is a smart adapter with some electronics inside and not merely a « dumb » adapter replacing the Lightning socket by an USB A socket?
does UR 22 audio interface works for Android phone specially when it's use for livestreaming or video recording? thank you so much🙂
Not sure sorry as I don’t use Android. But the interface is class compliant so doesn’t need drivers to run, which means it should be compatible with most platforms.
Can you connect two usb mics? Like two blue yeti?
No. iOS only supports one USB audio input/output device at once. ruclips.net/video/OzX6jbTm0Hc/видео.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic that sucks. I make an podcast with two Yeti (was the cheapest option). But I would like to get an tablet instead of a laptop. So this is a dealbreaker.
Hi Peter…. Your videos have been a great guide to using GarageBand with IPad. I’ve recently started recording my band at rehearsal with the Beringer Uphoria 8 channel interface with some very promising results. Question. Is it possible to add a second interface to increase amount of mics / channels I can record simultaneously…??
Hey there. Not in iOS I’m afraid. iOS can only use one input and output device at a time. studiolivetoday.com/usb
I learn so much from you! Thanks for sharing your knowledge :-)
You’re very welcome my friend. I hope you get value from the other videos here on the channel and consider subscribing. 👍
Hi pete please help can i connect at2020 usb+ to a v8 live sound card or f8 live soundcard?
No. USB mics have their own built in audio interface and therefore can't be connected to another interface.
I want to use the ipads video camera to record my keyboard playing, can i do this and capture the great interface audio of the keyboard too?
Hey there. You can do this. It may out there audio all on one side though if using a two channel interface. I’ll be covering this in more detail soon.
Wondering .....can I just use a usb mic and plug multiple mics into the usb hub? If I need to record multiple mics at the same time ?
No, unfortunately only one USB mic can be used at a time.
Hi Pete... Thank you for your videos. I tried connecting my USB hub to my iPhone through the white lighting device but the light of the hub keeps tripping off and it won't connect. I had to connect the hub directly to a socket and then connect my audio interface directly to my phone. How do I add a keyboard since the hub isn't directly connected to my phone but to a power socket?
Hi there. Make sure you are using a powered hub and genuine Apple Lightning to USB adapter. This video might help - ruclips.net/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/видео.html
Pete Johns thank you. I've seen the video. It helped me in my setup. I guess I'll get another lightning usb adapter. Thanks again.
Pete i have M Audio Fast track solo and also irig pro duo. Can i connect both? Sorry cos I’m new in DAW especially i just downloaded a free trial of Logic Pro X. How can i setup with my new imac if I don’t use the ipad setup? Hope give some advise as a new user. Thanks
Hey there. Generally you can only use one audio input/output device at once unfortunately.
Pete have you try out new Apogee Symphony Desktop interface? Actually I’m looking forward to buy irig AXE io from ik multimedia. Sorry Pete to ask you too many questions.
If I use a powered usb hub just like you did, would I be able to plug in 2 different audio interfaces. And example, use a usb scarlet for garage band, and another interface behringer for output a different app?
Hey there. So, this can work though iOS doesn’t work great with multiple inputs and outputs. Powered hubs are super handy so worth picking one up anyway.
When I plug my interface in it doesn’t work
Bummer! Make sure you’re using a genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter. studiolivetoday.com/usb
I need your help. I have the Motu m2 & a shure condenser mike, and record my video with my iphone. Playback when listening back only plays on only one track on my iPad. Im trying to edit only on my ipad. Not use computer software. Is there a way to fix this for my RUclips videos?
Hey there. You’ll need to convert the video and fill the audio from the left/right to make it mono. LumaFusion will do this for you, or some other video converter apps.
@@PeteJohnsMusic i used the panning setting in LF, 25/75, I thought maybe I was just missing something in my process. I promised my viewership a video and did not want to give bad info. Thanks for getting back to me! You make great videos!

Hey there. Yes, this is possible and I talked about it today in my live Q&A show actually. ruclips.net/video/5HT_NcAhSsk/видео.html
Some users write in the internet, that Korg microkey 37 (which I see in your video) is not O.K. because of the latency. What is your experience?
I personally have had no issues with latency on iPad
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thank you for your Help and your videos.
Cheers! Which brand of monitors are you using, and how are you running them in this set up? Thanks!
Hey there. I use KRK Rokits. You can check out links over on my gear guide - studiolivetoday.com/gear
I use the balanced TRS outs in the back of my audio interface. For recording videos, the output goes via my mixer (Zoom LiveTrak L-8... also linked at studiolivetoday.com/gear).
@@PeteJohnsMusic Ahh ok cool. Thanks so much for responding! Your vids are great!!!
Great info! Just what I was looking for. Thank you so much for posting this. I'm going to buy the USB hub and Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter through your links. Will the Steinberg UR12 work the same way? Or does it not do MIDI? I'll need to input vocals, would like option to input guitars at some point, and would like to have MIDI option to use external keyboard. I'm on a tight budget and looking for good budget/quality balance for an interface to use with iPad Pro 9.7" (from a few years back). Any tips much welcomed! Thanks again.
Hello there! Thanks for watching and for supporting the channel. Yes, the UR12 is a great interface too and the only drawbacks are no MIDI, no stereo TRS input and no balanced TRS output. You can however use the hub and a USB MIDI keyboard as I show in the video. More details are at studiolivetoday.com/usb
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks so much for the reply! I've decided to order the UR22C. The drawbacks you mentioned for the UR12 in your reply above convinced me! Do any of your videos address how to hook up an iPad Pro (it's a few years old) to an older model desktop LCD screen? I thought I saw something in one of your videos about this, but could not find the reference again. Or maybe it was just wishful thinking that I saw it?... LOL!

Pete Johns as a teacher, I highly respect you for sharing knowledge. Thanks.
Hi, thanks for the content. Been following you for the past week. Very helpful.
One question:
I can’t get my setup to work on instagram live etc. it is just working when recording in certain apps. Any suggestion how to make my studio available live in instagram ?
Yeah, some iOS apps default back to the built in mic and don’t like USB audio for some reason. I’ll continue testing these in the future but it can vary across different appsz
Hey Pete, i was wondering if it's possible to use the lightning to usb adapter that doesn't have the extra lightning input
Hey there. It is, however some devices will need more power and require either a powered hub or the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter
It will surly work I use the normal camera adapter with a powered usb hub.you can get many cheap powered usb hubs.if the one Pete recommend is out of your budget then u can try and get an orico 4 port powered usb hub and it works just as well as in the video.
