I think that there are two definitions of the IRig Pro Keys: one has a white housing and comes with extra wiring, the other only comes with the USB to mini USB to hook to the controller only, so has two less wires. I have an older iPad 2 which takes th 30-Pin connector. When I bought my 30-Pin Apple Camera Connection at Guitar Center, I asked about the difference between the IRig Keys Pro and the IRig Keys 37 Pro USB (both have 37 keys, their function is 100% identical when it comes to use). The “37” sells for less because it lacks lacks the Lightning wire and the Android wire (so I was told). They also told me in the long run to buy the 30-Pin Camera Connection is wiser because some proprietary camera connections or patch wiring stop working because of them not being genuine Apple parts. I’ve experienced that with my iPhone 6s. The car charger worked the first week I bought it from my cellular provider. Did I damage it? No. Meanwhile the genuine Apple parts work and I always keep things up to date unless there is a good reason not to.
I just thought it more wise to buy my camera connector separately. I may get the Lightning connector for my iPhone, because Sample Tank downloaded to that, doesn’t work with the 30-Pin connector on iPad 2. Could be it looks for more storage space than 16Gigs too?
What is weird is that I have GarageBand and iGrand Piano on my iPad and my hookup to the “37” works awesome. And I can open CubasisLE and I am in demo mode. I can play my keys and hear the MIDI drum set.
I can understand why IRig would go to selling the same controller without the patch wires if in the Apple iOS that any non-Apple parts hooking up to the iPad will stop working. Meanwhile it is a headache for them with returns, isn’t it?
In the end for the consumer, the cost buying separate parts is more, the 30-Pin connector was $30. Guitar Center sells the Lightning Camera Connection for $30 but are out of it, but BestBuy has it too on their website for $29.99 plus shipping. I bought my “37” for $79.00 on a Labor Day sale and bought a $19.99 foot pedal. The wire I would not need is the wire for the Android tablet, don’t have it and won’t buy it. If I had bought the IRig Pro for $149, however and then has to buy both the 30-Pin and Lightning wire camera connection kits as genuine Apple, I would spend more for the same equipment (different color).
I think if there is a different “ping” between the IRig Keys Pro and the IRig Keys 37 Pro to CubasisLE, it is similar enough to let it be partially recognized but it is not on the list even though both controllers do the same thing, I just want Apple connectors as I can see from my own experience from my car charger stopped working. I want to avoid headaches.
Do I expect CubasisLE to understand and add my controller to their list? Would be nice. But will they? In time I am sure, perhaps when they updated their product. But I don’t think they’ll holler out “Hey Sally! We fixed it just for you!”
In the meanwhile I would have bought the same controller again and the other parts separately again because it will work and I know it will. Bought them to travel and vacation with. I don’t want a headache.
Does that answer your question of how I screwed it up?
