Hello,
I have an ipad 3 and DP 7.24, motu 2408 mk3, motu express XT. I'm wanting to be able to use the ipad as an external sound source but I can't figure out how to set the MIDI up so I can sequence while hearing the sounds on the ipad.
I've searched but just about every post is about controlling DP with the ipad.
I have the iRig MIDI device and y cable for the audio. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Re: DP 7.24 and ipad

Re: DP 7.24 and ipad
Dave,
Thank you for your response.
Yes, the app is sampletank and I can connect my synth directly and it works fine. But, when I connect the iPad to the motu express XT I don't know how to set it up in audio/MIDI so DP will see it.

Re: DP 7.24 and ipad
dp doen't need to see it, it needs to see dp, just send the MIDI out to a MIDI out on the xt, and connect that to the in of the ipad, make sure your MIDI channel is set.
have you done this before with other keyboards?

Re: DP 7.24 and ipad
Dave,
Yes, I have several synths and VI'S and never had any problems setting them up. I have the iPad connected to MIDI out 8 on the express xt going in the iPad and my master keyboard MIDI out is connected to MIDI in one on the xt. I can access all my other units but when I try to select the iPad there is no listing for it. For some reason I have no idea of what to do next, I've developed a total brain fart. There should be something to select like "iRig" or something to let me access whatever vi I have instanseated on the iPad.
Thank you in advance for any additional assistance you can give me.

Re: DP 7.24 and ipad
disconnect one of your keyboards that work, and hook that up to the ipad in and send MIDI to the ( name) of the disconnected keyboard.... is your ipad playing now?

Re: DP 7.24 and ipad
Dave,
Wow! I feel like a total dummy for not being able to figure this out. I just had to add an instrument in audio MIDI and now it works fine. I'm sorry for the trouble but I really appreciate your help.
Once again, thanks a million.

Re: DP 7.24 and ipad
I've got it working fine now thanks to you. I was searching so hard for a factory setting I completely forgot to just make one. I was sure it had to be more difficult that it was. Anyway,
it is working now and I can play with this I also bought the CMI emulation for ipad! I just bought the stripped down version to see if I might like it and I'm not sure I'll spring for the full version but it is fun to play with.
Once again, thank you for your assistance.
