MF3D with ipad. Is it possible?
Has anyone been successful in using your midi fighter 3D with an ipad? If so could you tell me how? I recently bought a midi fighter 3d and I have been trying with a camera connection kit and even a powered USB hub but the ipad gives me a message saying that this device uses too much power. Is there a setting I could change, or how can this be done? Thanks!
Yes I could control cubasis drums with the 3D was basically plug and play think you could use it with GarageBand aswell but haven’t tried. What ipad are you using?
I have a white iPad 3rd generation. I was hoping I could use it with apps like DM1 drum machine and iMaschine. how have you gotten yours to work? because as I said my iPad says that the midi fighter 3d needs more power than the iPad can give. even with a powered usb hub.

I am using an iPad Air so that might be something to do with it.
Ipad Air or Ipad 3
Hmmm, Ok thanks for the help!
You can use a Midifighter 3D with an iPad! But, you need a powered usb hub, since the led’s a gyros are a little too much power for it. The original MF classic, as well as the twister (usually), works without a powered hub.
iPad Midifighter setup
Ok so there are 2 ways that I use my 3D along with a Twister with an iPad or iPhone. The first involves using an iconnectmidi to allow for python scripts to be used in iOS using Ableton as an intermediary. If you want to do that let me know and I can help. If you are looking for a purely iOS setup which I prefer I strongly recommend investing in the MidiBridge app as it lets you do whatever you can think up! I use my 3D to control NanoStudio both with the TRG drum rack and Eden with MidiBridge splitting channels. Mapping the motion to Eden’s dual XY pads makes for expressive sounds! Alchemy is also suited very well for the 3D to be used as a synth/drum controller. Clearly there are tons of apps that can be easily controlled by anything but MidiBridge opens up the possibility for complex mappings! Hope I helped a little!
i pad 3d finger drumming
im pretty sure you need a sound card too. Anyways I want to use a midi fighters on an I pad air, with mad zach sound packs.. I don’t want to use it as a DJ controller I only want to use it to finger drum. I understand the use hub and sound card part, but that’s it… Please help.
