[RESOLVED] iRig Keys I/O 49 mic not heard thru sound system

[randyfreemire]

Hey, I've got the iRig Keys I/O 49. Have tried using several different dynamic mics, I get no sound thru my speakers. I'm connected to an iPad, running sound thru the headphone and 1/4" outs of my iRig. No recording software, just running Syntronik. Have looked thru the user manual, didn't see a mention of the mic input or any corresponding setup. I've adjusted the trim knob on the back of the keyboard right next to the mic input.

So, two questions:
1. How to get the mic input working?
2. How can I get effects on that mic input?

Thanks,
Randy

PS A shout out to IKM support. Got alot of email support for my keyboard glitching, and when not successful, IKM sent me a new keyboard, which works perfectly. That's good customer support!

To get sound from your mic you'd need to be using an app that accepts that input from iRig Keys I/O as audio interface. Might I suggest VocaLive? It is very good.

Also, the sound will not route through the iPad speakers if you have a connected audio interface that has outputs so you'll need to listen through the headphone jack or connect the output(s) to speakers/mixer/etc.

Thanks Peter-

I downloaded Vocalive CS. My iRig Keys I/0 has sound coming out of the headphones and 1/4" outs using Syntronik. I'm still not getting any sound out of the iRig Keys I/O outs while using the Vocalive CS app.

I've tried all the Source inputs, turned the mic gain on the iRig keyboard all the way up, am using a dynamic microphone.

Thanks,
Randy

Hi, I'm not sure why that is happening, I suggest opening a ticket with IK Support so the experts on the team can troubleshoot directly with you and find out what's happening.

So, email support suggested installing the latest OS for this controller. Once I did that, the mic input worked!

Is there an equivalent product available on a MAC? I can't get my iRig Keys I/O Mic to work with my iRig Keys I/O 49 keyboard.

Thanks in advance.

The iRig Keys I/O is a class-compliant interface and you're plugging a microphone into that interface so it should work as a typical interface. I would suggest reaching out to IK Support and they can troubleshoot to see what's going on and get you up and running. https://www.ikmultimedia.com/contact-support/hw
