IK Multimedia iRig Keys I/O Music Production Station with Audio Interface
The iRig Keys I/O combines a full-size MIDI keyboard, expressive performance controls, and a professional audio interface in one compact music production station. Available with 25 or 49 velocity-sensitive keys, it gives musicians a streamlined way to record, compose, practise, and perform using iPhone, iPad, Mac, or PC.
A Complete Music Production System
Why manage a separate keyboard controller and audio interface when one device can handle both jobs? The iRig Keys I/O features an integrated 24-bit audio interface with sampling rates up to 96kHz, helping you maintain detailed audio quality throughout your creative process.
Its Neutrik combo input accepts microphones, line-level equipment, guitars, and basses. Additionally, the Class A microphone preamp supports dynamic and condenser microphones, including models that require 48V phantom power.
Available with 25 or 49 Full-Size Keys
The iRig Keys I/O is available in two versions, allowing you to choose the layout that fits your workspace and playing style. Both models feature full-size, velocity-sensitive keys with a responsive synth-action design.
The 25-key version measures 14.7 inches wide and weighs 2.78 pounds without batteries. Meanwhile, the 49-key model measures 27.3 inches wide and weighs 4.81 pounds. Their compact profiles make them practical for crowded desks, mobile studios, and live performance setups.
Expressive Touch-Sensitive Controls
The control surface works like a creative command centre, keeping important functions within easy reach. The iRig Keys I/O includes eight velocity-sensitive, multicoloured assignable pads for triggering sounds, samples, or other mapped functions.
It also provides five programmable touch-sensitive encoders, octave controls, program change controls, and transport controls. Two programmable slider strips handle pitch and modulation by default, although you can assign them to other parameters.
Because the knobs, sliders, and buttons use capacitive touch technology, the system can display parameter information as soon as you touch a control. This helps you make adjustments quickly without interrupting your workflow.
Built-In Professional Audio Interface
The iRig Keys I/O includes the connections needed for recording, monitoring, and live playback. Its microphone input delivers a 46dB gain range, while the high-impedance instrument input offers a 27dB gain range for electric guitars and basses.
Two balanced quarter-inch outputs connect the keyboard to studio monitors, mixers, or PA systems. The balanced design also supports longer cable runs, which can be especially useful during live performances.
A stereo headphone output provides up to 100mW into 50 ohms, giving you a convenient way to practise, monitor recordings, or work quietly. There is also a quarter-inch TRS input for connecting an external pedal.
Flexible Power for Mobile and Studio Use
The iRig Keys I/O can receive power through a computer’s USB connection, four included AA batteries, or the optional iRig PSU 3A power supply. Battery operation makes it especially useful when working with iOS devices or portable computers that cannot provide enough USB power.
When used with the optional power supply, the controller can also charge a connected iOS device during longer sessions. This flexibility allows the system to move from a home studio to a mobile setup without becoming a maze of power cables.
Designed for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and PC
Apple MFi certification helps the iRig Keys I/O connect directly with compatible iPhone and iPad models. The package includes Lightning, USB-A, and USB-C to Mini-DIN cables, providing several connection options straight from the box.
A mobile device stand is also included, allowing you to position an iPhone or iPad above the keyboard. Mac users can connect through an available USB port, while Windows users can install the IK Multimedia iRig audio driver for low-latency performance.
Compatible with Popular Music Software
The iRig Keys I/O can control Apple Logic Pro, Logic Express, and GarageBand after the appropriate Control Surface plug-in is installed. This integration gives you direct access to transport and production functions from the keyboard.
The 49-key version also includes a selection of software and app content. Available titles include SampleTank Pro for iOS, Cubasis LE, Ableton Live Lite, SampleTank 4 SE, VocaLive CS, and selected IK Multimedia software titles.
Compact Design for Travel and Small Studios
Both versions of the iRig Keys I/O are built to reduce the amount of equipment needed in a production setup. Since the audio interface is already inside the keyboard, you can record and monitor without carrying a separate interface.
The compact construction is useful for producers working at smaller desks, musicians creating tracks while travelling, and performers who need a lighter stage setup. A compatible travel bag is also available separately for each model.
