Ipad Recording Interface

I’ve been using IK Multimedia audio software for years on a Windows PC platform. This was my first hardware purchase in order to use my iPad as a portable recording studio. You can use the iRig HD 2 to get extremely low latency when using and recording with your iOS apps (and also Windows PC platform) but my primary reason for this purchase is to have a robust yet compact portable audio interface for recording my guitar. IK Multimedia is well known for being makers of high quality audio software and hardware and this inexpensive interface is no different. It’s made of robust plastic and will allow you to connect to a several connecting ports like iOS lightning interface, USB, USB-C and also comes with the necessary cables for each! I plug my guitar into the iRig and run a cable from the amp output direct to my amp. I then plug a lightning cable from the iRig to my iPad. I use an app from Jam Origin called MIDI Guitar 2 which allows me to use my guitar as a real-time MIDI controller to then play my virtual synths. I then run the headphone output of my iPad to the monitors for the accompanying sounds. This is a great inexpensive interface that you will get a lot of mileage from.

Exquisite -- quality of recording, build quality, user interface, everything.

Great looking device with the best video recording interface

Exactly what I needed… I use with a zoom uac-2 audio interface to iPad-pro.

I love this thing! I use it as an audio interface for recording audio for my podcast and voiceovers and everything! It’s amazing and definitely worth the purchase.

excellent interface. Mac and PC instantly recognized it. no issues recording or monitoring.

The cord work with no problem, I the purchase was worth the time to build one on your own.. I used it to interface a iPad to an Amateur radio for I digital comunications.

I have this connected to my MBox 3G interface, priimarily for use when recording, so that I can create. It is extremely well built and very compact. Two great features are the separate level control and mute button for powered external monitors. There are many cheaper units out there, but this is clearly a case of you get what you pay for.

I bought this as a gift for my friend who doesn't have an audio interface for his laptop. He was having all sorts of phasing issues recording with his internal microphone- and of course poor input-volume. He pulled this right out of the box and was able to hook in up and start recording instantly! We're both very satisfied. Thanks a lot, B & H! -Josh Dobbs

This makes recording with a professional XLR microphone directly into a computer super easy. The description says, effortlessly connect your microphone, and it was correct. This is truly plug and play. My computer recognized it fast, and I was up and running in no time at all. It used to be a hassle and require more equipment for me to do what I can do effortlessly now with this audio interface. I like that it can work with both dynamic microphones and condenser mics because it also provides phantom power if you select it to do so. That is great, and again makes my life easier. Having a mic gain is also very helpful to achieve proper levels. And a headphone jack and headphone volume control is another added bonus that I appreciate very much. I plugged it directly into the back of my mics XLR output and then sent the USB C directly to the computer which was the easiest way for me. The sound that came from it was clear and crisp. I noticed no delay and no added noise. The build quality on this interface is also impressive. It is all metal and well-made. The dials feel well made and it comes with dedicated Velcro straps if you want to attach it to something, like a boom pole or stand. I am very happy with this XLR to USB-C audio device. It has made recording audio straight to a computer much easier and with great quality. [I have received this product in exchange for my honest review]
