This makes no sense and I have no interest using the interface through my computer. I want to be able to use the iphone app for portability and offline use.

The reface Soundmondo app can be used to CAPTURE (Let’s you import current program from your reface), VOICE (Let’s you Store your captured items on your i-device and restore them to your reface), SET LIST (Let’s you arrange your Voices into a convenient order for recall), and finally SOUNDMONDO (Let’s you go online and upload your creations and download other people’s creations in an international community of reface users).

Sounds like your app is working fine. Shown below is the refaceDX:

Hi, I have the same problem. I Have Reface CS, iPhone 4s, os 9.3.5 and NI 30 pin to USB (picture of cable below)

The app does not recognise synth. Can it be cable? But is thera a propper way, to connect reface with iphone 4s?

It’s your cable... obviously that cable doesn’t connect to your refaceCS. And it is just a cable...

You need the proper adapter that is a “Apple Camera Connection Kit”
Google that.

Thank You for the Answer. It is wrong picture. This is the right one

It has USB type B, that fits reface CS.

But it does not transmit any data. Original ACCK (30 pin) is almost impossible to find today (in Czech Republic)

Yes, 30-pin Apple connectors and adapters are getting harder to find. The picture you show is the right connectors but is only a cable. You need a bit of intelligence to convert the data.

Yamaha made an adapter cable called i-UX1 which converted the USB-MIDI data to the host product. It has been discontinued, if you cannot find a Yamaha i-UX1 then you need the “Apple Camera Connection Kit”.

The Camera Connection Kit was much less expensive as it was a common thing for those with digital camera (you remember cameras, right? Devices that were dedicated to taking pictures... 🙂 cameras are getting harder to find... you may have luck finding the Camera Connection Kit adapter through stores and websites that service digital cameras).

Sometimes you can find just the CCK as an adapter then you just add your own USB cable.

Thank You very much. I will look for Camera kit. I like reface very much, but for stage, it is almost useless without memory.

I don't know exactly what sort of things you are playing, but I feel like a lack of memory on two keyboards designed to mimic drawbar organ and electric piano...neither of which had memory, is a long way from rendering them "almost useless"
I use the CS on stage all the time and it is very rare I bother with the app. I just dial in the sounds myself, and I feel like that is more involved than draw bar/preset/effect settings on the YC or CP. (actually I think the CP in particular is very well designed for stage use on it's own...save for the 3 octave mini keys which obviously aren't idea for piano)
However I don't know how you use these instruments, so I can see that it is conceivable you require memory, and obviously it is nice if everything works as you would want. My only point is that they are still very useful instruments live for most applications, even with no memory

Well, I get the point. I can change drawbars on organ while playing, but I just can not recreate complex sounds of CS on the spot while playing another keyboard. I takes time and differences in sounds and settings are quiet big. I just need the presets for live use. There are keyboards (Monologue,Boutique), that are both knob per function and let you save setting, so no need to compromise. But I hope I will find camera kit and it will work.

I have one technical question. I have read, that CCK works only for iPods and not for iPhones (at least 30 pin version). Is it truth? Does anyone have experience with this? i am becoming really desperate.

stefan,
It is very difficult to find things for the 30-pin connector - rather than throw money after adapting to a connector that has officially gone away - you might consider getting into the APP once you have upgraded your phone. You will only have to spend money again to adapt for the Lightning connector that is now used on all iPhones and related devices. Frankly, I have not read anywhere that it works only for iPods (all I can say is that it certainly used to... but not having had a 30-pin connector in quite a while now, I have no way to verify if something changed to prevent it from working).

I don't mention the new phone lightly, I know this can be costly... but I would not be doing you any favor if I didn't mention it. Sometimes the phone lives on just to run apps, even long after it ceases being a phone (I realize that too). If you cannot find the CCK for 30-pin, you might just have to bite the bullet and upgrade the hardware (phone).

Ok, so after finding an old 30 pin CCK I can confirm, that there is absolutely no way to use Capture on Iphone 4s. The CCK for this generation is designed only for connecting iPhone to iPod. We have to deal with it.
