Great!
Regarding latency, what's the maximum acceptable? And can I view the data on my iPad?

My bad, read quickly and didn't spot the USB-C interface.
The PlugKey has only lightning cable connectivity, not usable in your setup.

You can viw the latency on your iPad/Camelot, normally with a buffer of 256 and 48KHz you are around 5.3ms (which is very good).

Happy New Year everyone!!!

What I'd like to do is play along with some backing tracks sent from an iPad. A singer sings along with these backing tracks using a Shure SM58 connected to my Zed 10Fx.

I'll do this right away.
But the big goal is to play layers and splits of AU3 and Nord sounds using Camelot and the Nord's external section.

Given that everything is clear to me and that I thank you, I wanted to ask you for information on a device I read about online that might be useful.
The device is called the Ifi Go Link and is a compact portable DAC (digital-to-analog converter) and headphone amplifier that connects to devices (smartphones, PCs, tablets) via USB-C. Ifi Go Link

I would like to connect it to the iPad and to the ST1 input of my Zed 10Fx mixer with this cable Sommer Cable Basic

It would seem that Ifi Go Link increases audio definition to the same level as a decent audio interface, and this would avoid the direct connection to my mixer's USB, which, as far as I understand, is obsolete. This should also improve latency.

Is everything correct?
Do you think it could work?
Would it really improve audio quality and latency?

Thanks!!!
