When I first tried to attach audio devices to my iPad Pro, I learned an important lesson: If you want to get power out of the adapter, you’ve got to put power into it. The power that comes to the adapter via Lightning doesn’t just power the iPad-it’s also feeding the USB device you attach to the adapter. Similarly, if you want to hook your iPad to your corporate Ethernet network, as Schiller suggests, you’d probably also want to keep your battery topped up while you worked.) (I sometimes stream live podcast audio via an external USB device, but had to be sure that my battery was fully charged before I did that. This means that you can use a USB device while powering your iPad, which wasn’t possible with the old model. The new adapter solves this problem by getting wider, adding a Lightning port right next to the existing USB port. One workaround people discovered for this was to attach a powered USB hub to the adapter, and then plug a microphone into the hub… but it was a messy solution. As Schiller indicated, most common USB microphones require more power than the iPad can deliver-and so they just won’t work if you plug them in to the adapter. Though there’s been a USB-Lightning adapter for some time now, the issue with using a USB microphone for podcasting has been all about power. Powering microphones and mixers USB supplies the data Lightning supplies the power. But there are also a few quirks to be aware of-and this doesn’t remove all the roadblocks to using an iPad Pro as a dedicated podcasting machine. The short version is, yes indeed, it works as Apple indicated. It’s two days later and I’ve taken delivery of one of these adapters, and have given it a try. (We did it, everyone, we got podcasting on an iPad to elicit a cheer at an Apple event!) I looked down at iMore’s Rene Ritchie, two rows in front of me, just as he started to clap, and then I joined in.
I’m a podcaster and an iPad Pro user, so I considered letting out a cheer in the small Town Hall theater, but didn’t want to be the only one. And for those of you who are podcasters, you can plug in a microphone and do your podcast right from an iPad Pro. For example, you can plug in an Ethernet adapter to get on your corporate network. Sure, it lets you plug in your camera, which many of us do, but because it’s powered, you can use a lot of powered USB devices. This is a really powerful accessory, a USB. While introducing the new 9.7-inch iPad Pro at Monday’s press event, Apple marketing chief Phil Schiller made an aside about a new accessory, the $39 Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter: Warning: This story has not been updated in several years and may contain out-of-date information. If you have further questions about connecting your Audio-Technica USB microphone to an iOS device, you may contact the Audio Solutions Department.Apple’s Lightning to USB 3 adapter brings iPad podcasting one step closer We have tested and confirmed that the Apple Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter will allow you to use an iOS device with popular Audio-Technica USB microphones, including the ATR2100x-USB, ATR2500x-USB, AT2005USB, and the AT2020USB+, all of which have a headphone jack that lets you connect headphones directly to the microphone. While many Lightning to USB adapters are available, not all of them will work with USB microphones. Most iOS devices provide only 3.3 volts of power, so to connect an Audio-Technica USB microphone you will need an adapter that accounts for this power difference. But with mobile devices becoming just as powerful as some computers, it is also possible to use a USB microphone with a mobile device and get great results, but you’ll need the right adapter. USB microphones have been around for some time and are designed to connect to a computer’s USB port, which provides roughly 5 volts of USB bus power. Question : How do I use a USB microphone with a mobile iOS device?Īnswer : Using the proper connections between products is important to make certain everything works as intended.
