iRig MIDI

iRig MIDI, together with the included* SampleTank® app, brings the same mobile power and flexibility to keyboardists and producers as iRig (the iOS guitar interface adapter) with the AmpliTube app brought to guitarists and iRig Mic (the handheld iOS microphone) with the VocaLive app brought to singers. With this release, IK continues to be the leading provider of iOS music-making mobile solutions with the widest range of innovative app-enhanced accessories for any type of musician.

iRig MIDI can connect any standard MIDI equipment such as keyboards, drum machines, drum pads, pedal boards and more to an iOS device to control the included SampleTank FREE* and a world of Core MIDI compatible apps, such as GarageBand™, available on the iTunes App Store. With iRig MIDI, you can also use iOS apps to control external equipment such as sound modules, digital audio workstations or even lighting systems right from the mobile device.

iRig MIDI is the only compact iOS MIDI interface sporting 3 MIDI ports - IN, OUT and THRU - so you can connect multiple MIDI devices without the need of additional gear using the two included standard MIDI connector cables. Two LEDs also conveniently display the MIDI activity on the IN and OUT ports.

iRig MIDI is powered directly from the mobile device, but it also exclusively provides a micro USB port with included cable that connects to any standard USB power supply source so that the iOS device can stay fully powered during long playing sessions.
