Thanks Pete. I have an Akai MPK Mini MKII and an Akai MPD 18. Both return the message that these devices require too much power for my iOS devices (iPhone 6S, iPad mini 2, iPad Air 2 an regular 2017 iPad). When I use only the Apple USB to Lightening 3 with the charging port connected, both controllers work perfectly with all devices. Some here have said the USB to Lightening 3 only charges the iOS device but does not power the MIDI device. All I know is these controllers work perfectly with all my devices. Hope this is helpful.

Thanks for this video. I've got a weird situation whether my lightning port to usb is able to charge my iPad using the charge port on the connector, it can power USB devices such as my USB hub, but it will suddenly not accept any USB device to function on my iPad. This is a 2018 iPad with the latest iOS version 17.2 (The problem arose ahead of the update). It turns my alesis qx49 on without issue, but doesn't accept input, and it completely ignores my mic. These are items it has accepted for ages now, and randomly it has just stopped. Any ideas?

My iPad (2018 version) has also installed the product, however my keyboard simply won’t turn on. It shines blue sometimes, for not even a second, as if it’s turning on but it just isn’t. What I find odd is that my keyboard works fine connected to my computer, but the even weirder thing is that it actually works perfectly with a knock off cable like the Apple adapter I got, but then the message pops up with the iPad not supporting this product. But I’ve managed to actually play for perharps 2 minutes with this knock off adapter. So why is it, it won’t even turn on with the apple adapter? I’ve tried the camera lightning kit too (the one with just one slot for the usb), then the whole too much power message pops up. The knock off one is actually like that one, just one slot. This doesn’t make sense to me. Hope someone got an idea. My keyboard is a Swissonic ControlKey 61 😄

Hi there. This sounds like a power issue. Sometimes the cheaper adapters will work for a while because they send through more power than they should - which is why thy eh eventually tend to stop working.

That's odd? I take it the keyboard sends standard MIDI and works with other devices when connected? The only other potential issue is power. Have you tried a powered USB hub? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nd1-pLlivJnKgIk.html

My iPad is usb C, I connected it directly to my keyboard with usb B, but realised that my iPad will drain while using it 🙄

Yes. It’s why I still use a powered USB hub and a USB-C to USB adapter.

@@PeteJohnsMusic is that what I need? I was really scratching my head last night and ended up ordering just a plain old unpowered USB C splitter so I can plug the usb c data, a usbc power cable, then plug the entire thing into my keyboard. Do you think that will work?

I was trying to learn something on midi, all I learned was something about new devices, ugh!

They give the error message. I have also been led to believe the USB 3 supplies no power to your iOS device. This has not been my experience.

Oops. Supplies no power to a USB controller. 😂
@PeteJohnsMusic5 жыл бұрын
Howdy. Yes, there seems to be some confusion around this and the power situation. I might need to do some more testing. My understanding is that it powers your iOS device but not any other connected devices.
