Since the connection procedures differ depending on the terminal of the instrument, the particular iPhone/iPad connector and the iOS version, confirm which connection type applies to your situation, using the following chart.

NOTE : Audio signals cannot be transferred between the digital instrument and the iPhone/iPad. This means that audio signals created via your keyboard performance cannot be recorded to the connected iPad/iPhone.
