1 Installation and setup

iRig Keys I/O can be USB bus powered, powered by internal AA batteries or external PSU (not included).
iOS: when connected to an iOS Device either esternal PSU or batteries are needed. The external PSU (not
included) will charge the iOS Device’s battery. When both batteries and PSU are connected, all the power will be
supplied by the PSU.
USB: typically, when connected to an USB host (MAC, Windows or Android), all the needed power is provided by
the host. If the connected host is not capable to provide the required power either batteries or PSU may be needed.
IMPORTANT: if the power switch is set to and batteries are present, the keyboard will be powered by the
batteries even when connected to a USB host that can provide enough power.
4 x AA
1.1 iOS Devices

1. Connect the Mini-DIN to Lightning cable to the iRig Keys I/O port and to the iOS device port.
2. Move the back side switch to the battery position (both if you are using batteries or the external PSU).

6. Connect a mixer, an amplifier or a PA system to the stereo line outputs. It is possible to control the output
volume with the DATA/VOLUME knob on the top panel (please refer to the instruction on this manual). These
are floating balanced output. This kind of output approximately simulates a floating transformer winding;
if both hot and cold outputs are driving signal lines, then the outputs are balanced, as if a centre- tapped
output transformer were being used. This system has the advantage that it can give the same level into
either a balanced or unbalanced input without rewiring connectors. These kind of outputs are also perfect to
route the onstage signal to a mixer without the need of a DI box, ensuring a loud and pristine signal.

2 MIDI controller section
2.1 Keyboard
iRig Keys IO 25 by default plays notes between C2 and C4.
iRig Keys IO 49 by default plays notes between C1 and C5.
If you need to play notes lower or higher than this range, you can shift the whole keyboard in octaves using the
OCT up and down buttons.
2.2 Drumpads
iRig Keys I/O 25 has 8 drum pads, in 2x4 disposition.
iRig Keys I/O 49 has 8 drum pads, in 1x8 disposition.
All the 8 pads on iRig Keys I/O can send MIDI Note ON and OFF, MIDI CH and MIDI CC messages.
On each pad it’s possible to program what kind of message will be sent (Note, CC or MIDI CH).
Each pad is illuminated by a RGB LED and the illumination gives you feedback on the pad status.
2.3 Touch sensitive controls

PITCH BEND
Slide this touch sensitive sensor up or down to send Pitch Bend messages. When you don’t touch the sensor,
it return to a central rest position. Moving the finger up will increase the pitch; moving it down will decrease the
pitch.
Note that the amount of pitch change depends on how the receiving virtual instrument is set. This control can be
edited to send any other CC message (see dedicated chapter on this manual).
MODULATION WHEEL
Slide this touch sensitive sensor to send Modulation Wheel messages (MIDI CC#01). The lowest position
13
English
sends a value of 0; the highest position sends a value of 127. Most instruments use this message to control the
amount of vibrato or tremolo in the sound, but note that this depends solely on how the receiving instrument
itself is programmed and not on the iRig Keys I/O settings. This control can be edited to send any other CC
message (see dedicated chapter on this chapter).
OCTAVE SHIFT
iRig Keys I/O 49 by default plays notes between C1 and C5.

If you need to play notes lower or higher than this range, you can shift the whole keyboard in octaves using the
OCT up and down buttons.
You can shift a maximum of 4 octaves up or 4 octaves down. The OCT buttons LEDs will flash each time you
press them. The number of times they flash corresponds to the number of octaves up or down the keyboard is
shifted.
The displays will inform you about the octave shift indicating a number relative to the octaves that has been
shifted. For example going from 0 to +1 the display will show “ 1” and will remain visible until another action on
the keyboard is performed. Negative shifts will be shown as “ -1”.
PROG BUTTONS
Sound modules like virtual instrument apps or plug-ins can switch sounds when they receive the Program
Change MIDI message. iRig Keys I/O sends Program Changes by pressing the PROG up or down buttons.
Starting with the currently selected program, iRig Keys I/O will send the next higher program numbers when
you press PROG UP and lower program numbers when you press PROG DOWN. The 7-segment displays will
inform you about the number relative to the PC number that has been selected. To set the current program see
the dedicated chapter on this manual.
TRANSPORT BUTTONS and ALT BUTTON
These touch-sensitive buttons serves as transport controls, from left to right: Stop/Return-to-Start/FFW (when
ALT button is active), Play and REC. The far right button, labeled as ALT, serves to enable/disable the alternative
functions of buttons and knobs.
14
English
When the ALT button is active thetransport buttons above will turn in (from left to right): Fast forward (FFW),
EDIT, PRESET.
EDIT Mode and PRESET Mode functionality will be described later on this manual.
IMPORTANT: configure the transport in the Preset menu so it communicates properly with your software.

MODULATION WHEEL/ PITCH BEND
As primary function this slider act as a Pitch Bend control. By pressing the ALT button, it will switch to
Modulation Whell control.
The operational mode can be edited from hold-mode to return-to-zero mode (see dedicated chapter on this
manual). This control can be edited to send any other CC message (see dedicated chapter on this chapter).
PROGRAM CHANGES/OCTAVE SHIFT
As primary function this cotrol act as Octave control. By pressing the ALT button, it will switch to PROG change
control.
The operational mode can be edited from hold-mode to return-to-zero mode (see dedicated chapter on this
chapter). This control can be edited to send any other CC message (see dedicated chapter on this chapter).
2.4 Knobs
The DATA knob act as browsing control when used in specific software or can be used to send a generic CC
number programmable by the user. It acts also to control the audio output volume when the ALT function is
active. Refer to the dedicated section on this manual for complete editing instructions.
The Knobs 1 to 8 can be assigned to any Control change number. When the ALT function is active the knobs
from 5 to 8 are activeted. Refer to the dedicated section on this manual for complete editing instructions. These
knobs are also touch sensitive: this means that you’ll be able to see the current value of the CC assigned to
each knob by simply touching it. The touch feature allows you, also, to send a specific CC# (momentary and
freely assignable, as described later in this manual) when the knob is touched: it is also possible to disable these
functions as described later in this manual.
The knobs can have different behaviour (Relative or Absolute):
When working in Absolute (ABS) mode the knob will send values from 0 to 127 on the selected CC (+1
increments per clockwise encoder steps and -1 decrements per counter-clockwise encoder steps).
Once values 0 or 127 are reached they will be continued to be sent if the knob is rotated in the same direction.
The starting value from which to send +1 or -1 values will always be the last one sent by the knob the last time it
was moved.
When working in Relative (REL) mode the knob will send custom values to the selected CC. This will allow the
host application to browse long lists of elements easily.

English
3 Presets
iRig Keys I/O comes with 5 factory presets (F01...F06) and 99 user presets (U01...U99) freely assignable. The
keyaboard can be configurated per personal use: it is possible to configure knobs, pads, touch sliders and
external pedal and all these configurations can be stored, recalled (via RCL or fast-recall) as user presets; the
factory presets can be only recalled.
To enter to the Presets menu, press the ALT button and then the PRESET button:
The display will shows RCL (recall preset) and all the drum pads corresponding to non empty user presets from
U01 to U08 will light on (this will allows you for a rapid recall of the preset).
As said, the display will shows RCL and by rotating the DATA knob it will cycle between STR (store user preset)
and DEL (delete user presets). The press on the DATA knob will select the action.
3.1 Preset recall
• Enter Preset Mode by pressing the ALT and PRESET buttons;

• If a user preset has been previously stored in the first 8 positions, the corresponding pad will light on. This
allows you for a rapid user preset recall (refer to point 1.2 of this manual). If you’d prefer to recall a preset in
the standard way, proceed with the following steps;
• The display will show RCL (recall). Press the DATA push-knob to confirm you want to recall a preset;
• The display will show F01 (factory preset 1). By rotating the DATA knob it will cycle between the factory
presets (F01 to F06) and, eventually, stored user presets.
• Reached the desired preset push the DATA push-knob to confirm the action.
• The keyboard will exit automatically the Preset Mode. You can exit the preset mode any time by pressing the
CANCEL/NO key.
3.2 Rapid user preset recall

The fast-recall feature allows you to recall a user preset directly with the 8 drum-pads: this is usefull in live setup
or where an immediate preset recall is needed.
You can perform a rapid user preset with the drum pads.
• All the 8 drum pads corresponding to non empty user presets from U01 to U08 will light on;
• Press the drum pad corresponding to the user preset previously stored;
• The keyboard will exit automatically the Preset Mode. You can exit the preset mode any time by pressing the
CANCEL/NO key.
16
English
3.3 Preset browsing using the PROG buttons

It is also possible to browsing among presets (both factory and user) with the PROG buttons. Refer to the
dedicated section on this manual (section 5.2.7) on how to use the PROG buttons to browse presets.
3.4 Preset store

• The display will show RCL. By rotating the DATA knob it will cycle between STR (store preset) and DEL
(delete presets). Reached the STR position press the DATA push-knob to confirm you want to store a preset;
• The display will show U01 (User preset 1). By rotating the DATA knob it will cycle between the user presets
(U01 to U99);
• Reached the position you want to store the preset on, press the DATA push-knob;
• If the location is empty, the preset will be directly stored on that position and the keyboard will exit
automatically the Preset Mode.
• If the location had a previously stored preset a further confirmation step will be needed to confirm to
overwrite the previous preset. At the press of the DATA push-knob the display will show CFM (confirm) to
confirm that you want to overwrite the previous preset. To confirm this action press the DATA knob, the
preset will be stored and the keyboard will exit automatically the Preset Mode.
• You can exit the preset mode any time by pressing the CANCEL/NO key.

5.2.2.2 Set different velocity (touch) response to the keyboard
The keyboard on iRig Kyes I/O is velocity sensitive. Usually this means that the harder you hit the keys, the
louder the sound that is produced. However this ultimately depends on how the instrument you’re controlling is
programmed and your playing style.
In order to match the style of individual users, iRig Keys I/O offers six different velocity response settings:
“S” VEL SENS, SOFT Use this setting if you prefer a light touch on the keys. This is especially useful when you
need to play fast passages or program drum patterns.
“N” VEL SENS, NORMAL. This setting is the default setting and works well in most cases.
“H” VEL SENS, HEAVY. Use this setting if you prefer a heavy touch on the keys.
“64” FIXED, 64. This setting will always send a fixed MIDI velocity value of 64 without any touch response.

Sound is distorted.
You’re probably overloading the input. Check that the input gain on iRig Keys I/O is set properly. If the Audio
Level LED is red when you play your instrument or sing or talk into a mic, decrease the input gain as described
in this guide.
I don’t get any sound.
In order for iRig Keys I/O to turn on, a Core Audio-compatible audio app must first be launched on your iOS
device or Mac.
iOS: be sure you are using an app that works with audio input from the Lightning dock connector.
Mac: be sure you have set “iRig Keys I/O” as the audio or MIDI input device on the audio app you are using.
Phantom power doesn’t turn ON when connected to an iOS device.
Check that you have inserted working AA batteries in iRig Keys I/O’s battery compartment, or that you’ve
connected iRig Keys I/O to the external power supply.
I can’t get any sound from my condenser microphone.
Your microphone may need phantom power. Turn phantom power on by moving the iRig Keys I/O botton to the
ON position.
