Using an iPad for recording

[MarkBParticipant]

Can I do multi-track recording through the SQ rear USB-B port to an iPad (IOS) that is running Logic Pro? Is anyone successfully doing this? If no, is there a reason why we know this cannot be done?

While I have not personally tried it, I don’t see a reason why this wouldn’t work. I mean the iPad is effectively a computer attached to the console. As long as the iPad has the capabilities to multi-track record over USB (something I have no experience trying), the console shouldn’t have a problem sending the audio to it over USB. Long story short, if there is a problem doing this, I suspect it lies with the iPad, not the console.

I sometimes use Auria on my iPad for back-up multitrack out of the USB on one of my Grace m108 preamps. Works fine. I have not tried it out of my SQ but might give it a whirl.

Well, I’m going to give it a try. I’ve ordered the USB-B to USB-C cable that I’ll need. I’ll report the results.
