Yes, you may need to download a driver for it. I would do a Google search for the type of interface and its compatability with garageband. From there you should be able to find out what if anything you will need to do.

Why doesn't iPad respond midi keyboard with garageband the midi keyboard works with PC via usb. but i plug The usb into ipad camera connection kit. still dont work?

If the MIDI keyboard is not class compliant as a USB device (ie. needs a driver installed for a Mac), it will not work with an iPad. In addition, if the iPad shows an error about the USB power when the keyboard is plugged in, then it is drawing too much power from the iPad USB port and will not work. The only way to get an over-current keyboard (and many require more power than the iPad can provide) is to use an AC adapter on the keyboard if it can use one, or use a powered USB hub that is compatible with the iPad. The Belkin ones seem to work fine, but some others do not.


How do you connect midi with logic pro?

Most modern MIDI devices come with a USB link that passes the MIDI signal to the USB socket of the computer. If a USB connection is not available then a MIDI to USB adapter (See links below) can be added to connect the standard MIDI sockets to the USB socket. These are widely available from various manufacturers at varying prices. The Mac usually recognises when a MIDI device is connected but they can be configured with the Audio & MIDI setup utility found in the Utilities folder within the Applications folder.
