Not exactly the same type of product, but the Griffin StudioConnect is an inexpensive ($15; $25 after buying a Lightning adapter off eBay) way to do everything that you described. MIDI in and out, audio in (via stereo 1/8" and mono 1/4" for guitars), audio out (1/8" headphone jack; stereo RCA), and it charges the iPad during use.
It really does make my iPad "feel" like a touchscreen hardware workstation synth - I just connect MIDI cables from my keyboard into it, connect its output to my mixer, and start playing around with apps. Of course, now that I bought an iConnectAudio4+, it's more of a backup interface.
this one right here
then i just need to spend my other 100 on a mic? Any ideas for that?
also, what do you mean by "complete interface"?
Can you show me what an incomplete interface is just for comparison?
With such a low budget your options are a bit limited but you can still do some great stuff.
Option 1: You require an iPad and a MIDI cable (something like this one) for $20 and purchase apps like Roland Sound Canvas or Korg M1, Waldorf, Moog.
Option 2: Search your local Craigslist for the following items, Kurzweil K2000, Korg 03RW, Korg X5D, Korg X5DR, Roland Sound Canvas, Korg M1R, Korg 01W Rack, Emu Proteus. All of these synthesizers make a wide range of sounds and are very good quality machines.
You also may want to ask your facebook friends if they have an old synthesizer sitting around collecting dust that they'd like to part with.
This is what I use. It's cheap and it works. Someone here recommended it. Thanks whoever you are!
Has anyone had any luck with the adapter OP tried? I bought one ages ago, totally useless.
I hadn't heard about Keynality, looks fun. And it's cheaper!
>The touch screen isnt ideal for playing the virtual pads
That can be fixed with a MIDI interface, though, right? Something like this and a cheap controller?
Is this really a good sale or is it always 20 bucks?
