    I think it's this kind of nonsense that would make me want to use a dedicated synth.

    I was using mine with my laptop and it decided not to work a couple of times and then suddenly worked. Fine for home but would stress me out for a gig.

    new camera usb 3 kit arrived.

    Not working, same message.

    I give up.

    Sometimes the new apple hardware needs to do some update.  My power adaptor did not work first time. Then there was some firmware synch and it did.

    Got Synth One?. pretty good for free.
    yeah it did the update.  Still no worky.

    can't be arsed with it tbh. 
      my ancient shite M-audio keystudio 49es works fine with the ipad and for a quick rehearsal/jam its probably good enough.
    I tried it with m-audio 88 keystation and it works fine with that as well.

    the ipad also works brilliantly with the Yamaha YC73 keyboard and so that could be a goer as well for some extra synth sounds.

    Further update.. 
    Keystation is decent and iPad is ok working with it but I don't think it's robust enough as a gigging solution.

    It ain’t.   I gave up.

    If someone made a decent weight 77 or 88 key keyboard with integrated tablet holder (or adaptor) for the all the power shenanigans and Apple made Mainstage and iOS app…. it could work.
