Yes but only as MIDI, no Audio.

Does this mean I cannot connect the Nord to the iPad and get audio?

I have an Arturia keyboard, connected to my iPad via a USB hub, with audio going to an audio interface and out to a speaker. Can I use the Nord the same way?

Unfortunately none of the Nord instruments send audio via USB.

Yes, this way it is OK because it is the audio interface that generates the sound and the Nord will act only as a MIDI master keyboard, just like the Arturia

I would be great to have a class compliant Nord instrument. Made a couple of gigs with my Yamaha YC61 and an old iphone 7 acting as sound module... with just 1 cable I have it all: send some midi files from the iphone to my Yamaha + sound module with a couple of nice synths from Audiokit (4 EUR each )... and you can control up to 4 external parts with the little Yamaha.

The NS is better in every single aspect, except class compliant audio/midi and equally in terms of B3 simulation
