Lightning to Audio cable
Has anyone tried hacking this into a Line IN cable?
I'm curious if there's better quality via the Lightning port than via a regular headphones one.
I'm gonna hack a cable this weekend and try.

Are you talking about that for iPhone7?
If it has audio in probably will be mono (mic in). Since it's digital cable hack it to allow somekind of line in (stereo) will mean reprogram the ic itself which doesn't seems trivial for the mortal people.
I digged a lot in the old 30 pin connector and it wasn't piece of cake but almost possible. The new lightning seems designed to avoid hacks directly.
I know there are guitar cables that use the 3.5mm headphone jack on older iPhones. I wonder how well those work with the new lightning to 3.5mm adapter designed for the iPhone 7.
I had the original iRig that worked that way. Terrible quality and feedback galore.
Same here. I have an iRig 2 and it's unusable due to the feedback bleeding through the channels
Right, so does it have the same problem using the lightning to 3.5mm adapter?
The lightening to 3.5mm adapter is basically an interface. Does it even support headphones with mic last I hear it was audio output only. If it has no input at all there's no way to hack it in.
I'm pretty sure that it does work with headphones with a mic, and that it passes volume up/down, start-stop buttons.through as well.
I was told on the KVR forum by IKM that this would work with the Apple headphone to lightning adapter

Which would suggest that the iRig should also work.
I know how the iRig worked. That's what I wanna do. I was thinking the Lightning port is less noisy than the headphone jack.
I think I have an IRig at home so I wont have to hack anything
@alecsbuga nice, let us know how it works.
the last iDevice that supported line input via 35 pin connector was the iPhone 3gs.
While it does have indeed a stereo input pair (which a few things like the Blue Mikey supported), no peripheral cable/adapter has the respective pins connected.
With a 10x magnifier you can clearly spot the pins as dummies with no metal for connection.
No iPad ever supported line input, there's just the headset connector with a single microphone line, which expect a load of about 1-2kOhm to be activated.
IOS checks this value and if found, it activates the mic in.
It's a known method to fool it by providing a resistor of that value and connect a single line signal parallel (which is basically the method IK used originally), but as mentioned this connection is very sensitive to bleed.
Afaik IK improved the design with the 2nd generation of iRigs.
The peavey ampkit (same basic idea as the original irig) used extra electronics of some sort that greatly improved the feedback/crosstalk problems. It wasn't perfect but worked pretty well.
The key to getting the most out of any of them is pretty simple: turn down the headphone volume as much as possible.
Looking forward to hearing how this works out with the adapter.
I feel bad for people who bought a Mogees and then poof no headphone jack
I want(ed) one
Right, this did work fairly well for me if I was using clean or barely driven tones. Might be worth trying again.
