How do you connect a USB MIDI keyboard to iPad Air?

Hello,
I can't get my USB keyboards to connect to my iPad Air.  I used to use the camera connection kit with my 1st gen iPad and it worked perfectly.  Now when trying to connect using my camera connector plugged into a lightning to 30 pin adapter with the iPad Air I get no response when trying to use my keyboards with Garageband, etc.  This seems like a step backwards!!!
Can anyone advise on how to use a USB MIDI keyboard with the iPad Air?
Thanks,
Richard

Same problem here...
I just read on another forum that someone managed to connect a midi device using a simple converter.
I have a digital piano with the square type USB connector, bought an adapter to convert the iPad Air's ligtning USB cable's USB end to that square connector, plugged it in, GarageBand did not respond to the Midi input.
on a macbook pro it works ok, but would be nice to use the iPad now that I bought it...

  • How do you connect a usb printer and usb external hard drive to the airport extreme, as it only has one usb port?

    I'm thinking about upgrading my old 802.11g router for a new airport extreme. Can it connect to a usb printer and external hard drive at the same time and acutally work. It only has one usb port on the back.
    thank you!

    To add multiple USB printers and/or HDDs, you just first need to connect a USB hub (powered prefereably) to the AirPort's USB port, and then, add the USB devices to the hub.

  • How to transfer data from USB flash drive to iPad Air?

    How do I transfer files and data from a USB flash drive, or from a PC, to an iPad Air?

    With a USB flash drive you might, if the drive doesn't require too much power, be able to copy photos and/or videos (if they are under a DCIM directory on the drive and their filenames are exactly 8 characters plus file extension) from it to the iPad's Photos app via the camera connection kit.
    What sort of files do you want to copy to your iPad, and have you got an app on your iPad that supports the file type that you want to copy to it ? Everything on your iPad has to be stored within an app, it doesn't have a 'file system' like a computer. Different apps have different ways of copying content to/from them e.g. via the file sharing section on the iPad's Apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes, via your wifi network, email, dropbox.

  • How do you connect wireless keyboard to ipad?

    How do you connect wireless keyboard to ipad?

    Go to Settings -> General -> Bluetooth. Turn on the iPad Bluetooth service and then the keyboard. They should find each other.
    BTW it's tricky to disconnect them. If you don't turn off the keyboard while it's paired, the iPad virtual keyboard won't work properly. Check the manual.
    The green light on the keyboard doesn't stay on all the time the keyboard is on, just for a few seconds after each change of state.
    The bluetooth keyboard - iPad combination is a very effective writing tool. The keyboard is very responsive.

  • Looking for a way to get my Product ID and Vendor ID so I can enable my Radium 49 USB MIDI keyboard to work with Labview 7

    Looking for the Product ID and Vendor ID for my Radium 49 USB MIDI keyboard to work with Labview 7
    Is there a tool to find out the Vendor ID and Product ID for a USB device?
    Example: of what I'm looking for
    The Product ID for National Instruments DAQPad-6020E is 0x12C0. The
    USB vendor ID is 0x3923. This is a 16-bit hexadecimal number(1093)
    (that is decimal 4243).
    Thanks for all the fast responses this newsgroup RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!

    How To Find The Vendor and Product ID for USB Devices?
    Primary Software: Driver Software>>NI-VISA
    Primary Software Version: 3.3.1
    Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
    Secondary Software: N/A
    Problem:
    I want to make an NI-VISA driver that requires the vendor and product ID?
    Solution:
    There is a utility called USBView,
    free from Windows, attached below, which you can use to view what is
    connected to your computer's USB ports. It is necessary to load this
    program and connect the USB device in development. Upon selecting the
    device in USBView, one can then look on the right side of the
    application window to obtain the Product ID and Vendor ID. This will
    allow you to enter in the correct IDs when creating a driver .inf file
    when using the VISA Driver Development Wizard. For more information
    about how to use the VISA Driver Development Wizard see the related
    links below.
    Note: It is necessary to keep the hexadecimal
    (0x####) format. Do not remove the "0x" hexadecimal format preceding
    the ID number. 

  • IMac won't recognise USB MIDI keyboard in Audio MIDI Setup

    I upgraded earlier in the week from a G4 eMac to a new Intel iMac. All appeared well until I tried to use my Evolution MK-361 USB midi keyboard from inside Logic. No midi events were coming through the system.
    After some fiddling around I found the Audio MIDI Setup utility and the keyboard is not listed as a device in there. However, if I open System Profiler and select the USB information I can see that the keyboard is connected. According to the E-Magic web site this model of keyboard is class compliant and so shouldn't need a driver installed.
    Originally I had the keyboard plugged into a USB hub. I've tried restarting the machine, restarting the machine with the cable plugged into different USB ports and different USB cables plugged into different USB ports. I've also downloaded all the latest OS / firmware / application updates and installed them.
    I reconnected the keyboard to my old eMac and it shows up on there so I know it's not a fault in the keyboard itself.
    The only other bits of gear connected to the machine are a Lacie external hard drive and my Saffire but these are firewire device so I wouldn't expect them to cause a problem (they certainly didn't on the eMac).
    If anyone has any ideas I would seriously appreciate the help. As you can imagine I'm pretty gutted having forked out a grand for the machine.
    Cheers

    Hi Jon
    So much for plug and play
    Yeah, it's great isn't it?
    I emailed M-Audio tech support about it and apparently it's a known problem in 10.4.8 and they're waiting for a fix from Apple. I guess I'll just have to keep my eyes peeled for OS updates and go rummaging under the stairs for a midi cable instead.
    Ho hum.
