I am using an Apple Lightening - USB cable - Apple USB - USBC adapter setup to get the iPad connected to the MacBook Pro as it has no standard USB ports and I've had no other issues but then haven't had any audio streaming between the two until now I guess. I'm wondering whether the whole MIDI out to iPad, audio return from iPad is only accessible with newer iPads. Even odder, in Logic, with the Aggregate Device enabled, the External Instrument shows an extra 2 inputs on the 'Input' drop-down, as though the iPad is actually allowing audio output. Indicates (to me) that the iPad can accept 2 channels of audio but output none, via Audio MIDI Setup at least. in Audio MIDI Setup, the iPad is showing 2 audio inputs and zero audio outputs. I've set the External Instrument up and Aggregate Device in Audio MIDI Setup. I'm getting MIDI from Logic to an Nlog Pro synth on the iPad 2 Mini but no returning audio back into Logic. I'm trying this with a new MacBook Pro and iPad 2 Mini. Now you can send MIDI to the iPad on that track, and the audio can also be monitored on the same track.

This latest version of the series features a Lightning connector, replacing the 30-pin version.

And when the company says iPad controlled, it means it: there are no physical faders. MACKIE DL1608L LIGHTNING 16CH Description The DL1608L is a 16-channel mixer with revolutionary wireless iPad control that makes any live sound engineers job and workflow much more enjoyable and exciting. Avoid using 'All inputs' or 'All outputs' if possible Note: - If you wish to connect multiple iOS devices as different interfaces, create network session and setup MIDI controller for each one. Set MIDI destination as iPad, and Input as one of the available inputs (on my system, shows as '1 (FrontLeft)' or '2 (Front Right)'. Mackie is a big-hitter in the live sound world so it’s perhaps not surprising that it is among the first to take this fusion of technologies to the next level with the DL1608, an iPad-controlled digital mixer. Launch your DAW and setup a new Mackie HUI or Mackie Control device with the MIDI port configured in the last step for input and output. It enables Cubase to recognize V-Control Pro 1.9(Legacy) as a Mackie HUI device.

In Logic, create a new software instrument track (not external MIDI), and load the external instrument plugin. Install a controller app on a device or MIDI controller as described in. Create new aggregate device (+ at the bottom of the devices list), e.g. Open audio midi settings app on MacBook and enable iPad.Ģ. Here's what I did to record Animoog the other day (assuming the iPad is already plugged in to your laptop).ġ. This means you will hear nothing through the iPad speakers when sending MIDI to a synth running on it. To expand on this a little, using the iPad hard-wired like this, you also need to create an aggregate audio device to be able to monitor the iPad's output, as once you enable it in audio midi settings, all audio output is sent through the MacBook too. Then you should see it as an available destination. You need to enable your iPad in the Audio/Midi Settings app on your MacBook.
