Vestax releases an audio interface for iOS

The Vestax V-MIDI is a MIDI Interface for iOS to use with iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch

The development of music focused applications for iOS is unstoppable and already features an endless number of applications going from entry level music ''toys'' to fully featured synthesizers and studio tools. Now, you are able to make full use of the sound quality of those apps and reach professional level sound standars thanks to the new Vestax V-MIDI. The gap between amazing apps with the not great sound quality of a mini-jack headphone connection and appropriate recording sound levels and quality has been bridged. One step closer to a studio at your fingertips!

How many apps are there at the moment that can simulate a synthesizer or offer a whole new approach to making music? Quite a few, yes. For a long time, though, there hasn’t been a simple solution for using these in serious music production. Vestax have closed this gap in the market with the V-MIDI iOS MIDI interface.
Simply connect your iOS device to the V-MIDI interface, then connect a USB MIDI device to the interface and use it to control the Core-MIDI app of your choice. The V-MIDI interface doesn’t just power you iOS device, it also powers the controller you’ve connected. If you don’t already have any apps don’t worry. Currently, there are over 100 CoreMIDI-capable apps, including DAWs, synthesizers, drum machines and DJ apps, available in the Apple App Store.
The only thing left is the problem of volume. The audio volume on iOS devices depends on the headphones output, which can lead to problems when recording. Vestax leaves this problem behind with the V-MIDI interface’s ability to amplify the output of your iOS device. You can also individually control the volume via its large rotary knob.
