Quick Start
Connecting Your Keyboard
You can power the keyboard either via a powered USB port or a third-party power supply. The
Keystations are low-power devices and an external power supply is not necessary unless
using the Keystation without being connected to a computer (e.g., controlling external
synthesizers). It is recommended that you connect the Keystation to an onboard USB port or
to a powered USB hub. Use a USB cable to power Keystation when connecting to a computer
to trigger software synths.
You can also use Keystation 61 MK3 with your iPad to control supported music creation apps.
Connecting your Keystation 61 MK3 to an iPad requires the iPad Camera Connection Kit,
which is available from the Apple Store.
