K-Mix can be connected to an iPad with the help of the Apple Lightning to USB Camera Adapter (for
iPads with Lightning connectors) or the Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit (for older iPads with 30-pin
connectors).
Apple does not allow iPads to provide as much power as a standard USB port does, so your K-Mix will also
need an external power source to function properly; this can come in the form of a USB power supply or a
powered USB hub.

1. Power the K-Mix externally with the included USB power supply ( instructions here ).
2. Connect the Lightning to USB Camera Adapter to your iPad.
3. Connect K-Mix’s AUDIO port to the Lightning to USB Camera Adapter using a micro-USB cable.
K-Mix may take longer to initialize when connected to an iPad. This can occur during
initial connection or when opening and closing audio/MIDI applications. K-Mix
might be unresponsive or experience audio dropouts briefly during initialization as
a result.
