Hi,
just been reading through this thread as I want to start using my iPad for gigs. I tried it at soundcheck today and it didn't work out as planned, and I was hoping someone could help me!
My signal chain was bass > apogee jam hd > ipad > cable from headphone port to input on di box (3.5mm cable with 1/4" adapter) I then ran the di to the pa and also a lead back to my amp so that I can use it as a monitor.
The signal coming out of my amp was fine once I adjusted the volumes on the apogee and the ipad, but when I turned on the pa there was a lot of noise from my channel.
I'm wondering if the line 6 port will solve this as I won't need to run a cable from the headphone port? I also probably need to get a di with a ground lift!
I ran through a few amps in JamUp, and they sounded great. Then I turned on Garageband, and used the di in that (the one that looks like an Avalon U5) and the sound was incredible!
Hopefully i can sort out the channel hiss in the pa as I really want to use the iPad on stage after hearing it today!

Thanks for the replies. I've ordered the Line 6 and a radial Pro AV1 (was onto Radial and this is what they suggested), so hopefully I'm good to go!
Will check out the Ampegs in GB. Seems like GB doesn't get a mention when it comes to amp simulators, but the di in it is fantastic.
I tried Amplitude but it was much noisier than the others, so for the moment I'll stick with JamUp and GB. When I'm feeling braver I'll add a pedal or two, at the moment I'm fully convinced the iPad will crash mid-gig!
