Critic Reviews

iConnectivity iConnectAudio4+ review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

The iConnectivity iConnectAudio4+ is a standout audio/MIDI interface that bridges iOS and desktop recording seamlessly. With its ability to connect two devices simultaneously, it offers impressive audio and MIDI capabilities, making it a versatile choice for musicians. The device ensures low latency and high-quality audio processing up to 24-bit/96kHz. Its MIDI functions are robust, supporting both traditional and USB connections, and acting as a MIDI patchbay. The main criticism lies in its cumbersome name, which belies its comprehensive feature set. For those looking to integrate iOS with studio setups, this is a top-notch solution.

I LOVE THIS

I love this interface. I can use it both as an audio I/O and a MIDI I/O. It communicates effortlessly between all of my instruments and microphones, my computers, and iOS devices. Slick and powerful. Great interface for layered MIDI setups that need audio input, such as vocorders.

Versatile, Live Mixer and Interface

Others have attempted to be an all-in-one PC/Mac + iOS Audio/MIDI interface, but have had limitations. This thing even acts as a standalone submixer and has a smaller footprint than an iPad Air (although one can fit on top of this unit nicely). I love that I can submix 2-3 keyboards along with sounds from multiple iPad apps in a live setting, and output different mixes to the front of house and my stage monitor/amp (if desired). All while keeping my iPad fully charged... pretty versatile way to simplify your live rig. And it sounds great!
