It’s not playing the music through my headphones only through the studio monitors so I can’t recorded me singing since the beat plays out loud I’m using a scarlet gen 3 and connected to my iPad Pro m4 my input and output are the interface and also the headphones do not pop up to select as output and im Connected via usbc to usbc I also had the same issue on my macbook when connected directly through the headphone jack in the scarlet but I was able to use the headphone jack on the Mac book since the iPad does not have one I have to be connected directly with the headphone jack on the interface does someone know how to fix that

Can anyone help me? I’ve connected my Steinberg UR12 to my laptop. It was working fine for months. Suddenly, the usb light started flashing and it wouldn’t connect. It’s very on and off. What am I doing wrong?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Sounds like could be a power issue? A powered hub might help. There’s some info here that might help out. studiolivetoday.com/usb

[@TheJjohnsOfficial]

Hi Pete love the videos 👍 can I just ask something. I use the official lightning apple cable I use a focusrite 4i4 and a powered usb hub. I usually have the hub plugged in to power. However it often just doesn’t come on at all or it will cut out half way through tracking. The plug provides 5w of power to the usb hub. Could the reason be that the focusrite needs more than 5w and that’s why it cuts out? Any suggestions !? I’ve not bought a portable battery power as there quite expensive would this be something you recommend?

[@TheJjohnsOfficial]

When I also connect a charging port to the usb hub to try and power the iPad that also doesn’t work. Could it be the actual usb hub is the problem ? Or possibly the plug I just don’t know

Hello, thank you for the informative video. What changes the setup at 8:49 in the video? Immediately before that, the behringer does not look like it has enough power (it is flashing)...and at 8:49 it appears solid. I'm trying to get a Behringer UMC404HD working with an iPad right now.

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Hey there. So generally you need to make sure you have the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter and either some power going in the Lightning port, or a powered USB hub. studiolivetoday.com/usb

Hey Pete I have a question my iPad Pro isn’t connecting with my Scarlet focus right interface. I tried two different hubs and I can’t find a solution to this problem Ps: I’m using GarageBand

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

That’s very odd? Your iPad has USB-C or Lightning? And you’re using the genuine Apple Lightning to USB 3 adapter if it’s Lightning? Also make sure it’s not in mass storage mode. I’ll paste information from Focusrite about the issue with the latest iOS version. Focusrite Scarlett + iOS 15 issue: I had a very helpful viewer Glenn provide this information from Focusrite showing how to change the Scarlett interface from MSD (Mass Storage Device) mode which is causing issues for many mobile creators. Hope it helps others. Here's how you can manually remove the Scarlett from MSD Mode: 1. Power unit up like normal by plugging a USB cable into the iPad 2. Unplug the USB cable 3. Hold down 48V and again plug in the USB cable whilst continuing to hold down the 48V button for 10 seconds 4. After 10 seconds unplug the USB cable again 5. Plug the cable back in one more time and you’re good to go

Hi - thank you for this video. I have the focusrite 2i2 with 2 input channels. I am able to record my voice in ipad when using my XLR dynamic mic connected to 1st input channel. However, when I try to connect the same XLR dynamic mic to the 2nd input channel then nothing gets recorded in my ipad. I mean I can see that the green lights fluctuate in focusrite 2i2 for the 2nd input channel when I say something but sound is getting in ipad/iOS. Does that mean iOS devices allows input from only the 1st channel and not 2nd?

Hey Pete will this work with the standard usb dongle (the single usb camera dongle) if you have the usb hub?

Hello pete I appreciate your video I just started recording using my IPhone but I am only getting audio from one side like is not in stereo, do you know what could be the problem? Thank you

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Hey there. So, most two channel interfaces use a stereo connection meaning one channel is left and one right. If you record in GarageBand and other apps it gives you the option to use these as mono inputs instead. If you record in other apps you’ll need to convert the audio back to mono so it’s in both sides. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4izf4F4f9F_orc

I'm confident I've connected it all up properly with the correct cables etc but I can't for the life of me work out why garage band isn't recognising the amp as the interface. Any suggestions/ advice would be welcomed as I want to be able to record guitar over mp3 baxkong tracks but it won't let me 🙄

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Hey there Paul. I think I saw your post in this over on GarageBand Users. Power is the most likely issue so make sure the amp is being powered separately. And make sure you have updated to the latest version of iOS. Hope you can get it sorted.

@@PeteJohnsMusic thanks Pete for your reply really appreciate it 👍 so do you think i need to use a powered usb hub so that the ipad is being charged whilst connecting to the spark amp??

[@paulgolding8873]

@@PeteJohnsMusic hi Pete so the spark amp is powered separately so I don't think power is the issue. I know that the spark amp can act as an interface so I can't workout why garage band isn't recognising it as an input and is only allowing me to record through the ipads microphone. Ive updated the amps firmware today so all is up to date. Now I'm wondering whether there is a problem with the ipad pro which is brand new. Do you think this could be the case?? I do k own from speaking to others who use garage band with the spark amp that a message should appear when connecting the apple USB c connector to the ipad. This doesn't happen with mine 🙄

@@PeteJohnsMusic last reply I promise... Im not convinced that ipad pro with usb c connectors are compatible with the spark amp as an audio interface for recording with garageband .

Hi Pete. I just received the UR22C with my SM58. I hooked it all up to my iPad Pro 2018. Newb question. When I record I only get audio from the left speaker when I try it with the voice memos app or GarageBand or voiceover in LumaFusion. I’d like to get stereo. What am I doing wrong?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Hey there. So the two channels basically represent left and right in standard apps. GarageBand you can just select “channel 1” and it will give you mono sound (so in both speakers). For LumaFusion, there is an option in the audio track to “film from left” for just these situations which will copy the audio across both tracks.

Hey Pete, what do you think of the Itrack solo to record music? I've been looking at interfaces that support both IOS and PC. The Itrack seems cool but it's just kind of old and I haven't seen any newer reviews on it. Also though, I've seen the Motu M2 which has been getting a lot of good reviews recently, though, If I got that I would need to purchases USB Hub and the camera adaptor, setting me back quite a back money wise.

[@forgetful9845]

Also, if you're wondering I have checked out the Irig pro, but it seems that there's a ton of variety in reviews, like it's either really good, or really bad. So I'm not sure how good the quality control is

[@forgetful9845]

I guess the Itrack solo is cheaper since it came out in like 2012

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

I’ve always been intrigued guy Ed by the iTrack Solo but you’re right that it’s an olde device. So old in fact that the original version came with a 30 pin cable. So definitely check that if you’re buying one second hand! From what I’ve heard, the preamp is lifted straight from the 1st gen Scarlett series so you’ll get decent quality. I juts keep coming back to Stienberg for those nice quiet Yamaha D-Pre preamps, and solid A/D converters. Plus the power switching option is so handy. And don’t forget that once you have a powered hub you can swap in and out USB drives, mice, MIDI keyboards and any other USB devices.

So, i have an evo4 from Audient, been using it for about 2 years now, but since I’ve had it, I’ve used two iPads with it. First my 2018 iPad, and now my iPad Air 4. Works great. And a focusrite works nice too. They all do. So my question is about when you’re switching between apps, and BiasFX2 mobile is running, whether or not you have it running through GarageBand, when I switch between apps to control Spotify or KZbin, i get a sudden spike in the gain and all this feedback comes through, till i select the channel on my interface and dial down the gain. It’s become “the bug you can’t really avoid” since anytime i bring it up to people at music shops always talk down to me with their more expensive gear talk and how i should just use Nural DSP and get a MacBook and get Logic Pro and Fruity Loops or Pro Tools. I am actually versed in all 3 and beyond. They act like I’m just starting. (Straight up haters is what they are. Because i’m doin the same thing with good results for 75% off the prices these gear-heads pay.) I’ll jam to music on Spotify or I’ll play in the background of KZbin videos like yours while im listening and that’s when i experience it the most. I usually just hit the mute button if i’m not playing so much anymore. Do you know this feedback issue i speak of? Sorry for the drama part.. and the book of an explanation love all your work.

The camera connector kit is an official apple product, though not the one with the additional lightning port.
