I’ve connected my DDJ-FLX4 to my iPad via usb-c cable, the controller works fine, but I can’t select my audio output to my controller. Any solutions?

@DdoubleJ

1. Can you please provide a screen shot of your Settings\>Audio Device Setup when the FLX4 is connected to the iPad?
2. Can you confirm that your iPad is connected to the computer/tablet USB-C port on the back of the FLX4?
3. Is the FLX4 connected to power via the second USB-C port on the back?

@DdoubleJ thanks for the additional information.

1. Can you please confirm that the iPad is charging when connected to the FLX4?
2. Have you tried a different USB-C to C cable? Preferably the original Apple one that came with your iPad or a high quality 3rd party cable with dual ferrite chokes on either end.
3. I would also try disconnecting everything, doing a Forced Restart of your iPad, then launching djay, then connecting the FLX4 to power, then finally connecting the FLX4 to your iPad.

Hi Slak,

1. A forced reset of the iPad fixed the problem 🙄

Thank you for your help, much appreciated 🤝
