I said I’m new to this, lol... but seriously, thank you for letting me know this is the issue. I’m 100% just barely figuring this out.

Am I right that this should fix it? (Lightning to USB3, USB to audio inputs; + external power)

I use a regular A-B USB cable with a Apple lightening photo adapter to hook up to an ipad and record in garage band - Detected as a midi input.

I use the Apple lighting to USB3 reader. Then just use the folders app to open my thumb drive and view the videos.

You can get the offical Apple one from amazon: Lightning to USB camera adaptor. There are also some cheaper 3rd party ones, like this: Lightning to USB third party. These may not be as reliable as the Apple one.

Oh I have one. Great for gig as it’s extremely easy to use & move.

Also if you have an iPhone [or any apple product like iPad -MacBook]you can plug it in

It’s a little complex but worth it to get the bank of 10,000 sounds

First you need a APPLE LIGHTNING TO CAMERA ADAPTER.

Second you need a printer cable— USB-3 to USB-B

Hook to the printer cable in the back of the P-45. There’s a USB-3 cube like hook up where one would expect to find a new USB, like USB-C.

Adapter. https://www.amazon.com/Apple-Lightning-USB3-Camera-Adapter/dp/B01F7KJDIM/ref=asc_df_B01F7KJDIM/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312106635483&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=6871861408476551633&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9003955&hvtargid=pla-403917398107&psc=1

That connects to the special Apple connected from above.

You than have the recording and software that opens this okay hammer action to a world of sounds.

This same issue has been driving me nuts, and I am about to try this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01F7KJDIM/

Best I can tell, I can connect the USB3 side of this to the carplay port using a USB A male-to-male cord that DOES NOT support charging. Then connect the lightning side of the dongle to a fast charger in the cigarette lighter. This adapter is designed to let you plug cameras, USB hubs and other accessories into your iPad, but I believe it will work for this case. I will update!

Ahh thanks!

Ok so I want to use my iPhone (iPhone 12). I actually have this Blue Yeti https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00N1YPXW2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share&th=1. So to use this with my iPhone, while also charging, is this all I need: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F7KJDIM/ref=cm_sw_r_api_i_8816980W7JZXCSQ6GMBV_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 ?
