WEgo4 to connect to the NEW 2018 iPad pro with USB-C

Thanks for the prompt response. I made a mistake, I have a WeGO3 - sorry for the confusion. The WeGO3 has no USB-A port unfortunately. Any other solution?
Sorry for the confusion again.

Unfortunately no - and I don't believe there are any plans to provide a WeGO3-to-USB-C cable. You may be able to use something like this...

What about something like this?

No; you still need to use that special iOS Device connector cable:

The other USB port won't communicate with your iPad.

Ok thanks. Has anyone confirmed whether the other adapter works?

No, but within reason, it should work - it's just converting the connector type, not the data flowing through it.

UPDATE-

 I purchased and tested both the small lightning to USB-C dongle and also the USB-B to USB-C cable.

And the results are.......wait for it.....

The lightning to USB-C dongle did not work.

but.....

The USB-B to USB-C cable DID WORK!!

Pioneer-  I hope you guys add this bit of knowledge to your FAQ since it seems like no one tested it there.   Hope someone finds it helpful. 

Cheers!!

I appreciate you testing that and I'll update my information to reflect that it does work that way. Thanks for your persistence!

Please see Q&A #14 - the iPad Pro is not supported with the WeGO4. Sorry!

Sorry, you are talking that the turntable it’s useless?, dont think to introduce a firmware or someone else?

@Lean78 > No, I'm not saying it's useless - just that the iPad Pro is not a supported device.

Ok, but you don’t saying why? iPad Pro have the same iOS like the other iPad/iPhone, if software it’s not the problem, the only reason of non functional it’s the hardware in the middle (wired connection “usb support”)

I think that pionner are also interested to know what is the issue, and give us a solution to your customers.

Please, Just only i try to have support, more specific, like “sorry”

Lean78- I suggest trying the usb B to usb C cable I linked to above. 

You can try the other cable but we do not officially support it, no detailed explanation was provided by our engineers.

Hi guys again, (and thank you David S), today i bought a usb-a to usb-c cable (data and charge) www.foxbox.com.ar

Hi,
I faced the same problem above, when I changend my iPadOS hardware (iPad Pro 2017 => iPad AIR M1 (2022)) with USB-C connector. I use Algoriddim DJay AI Pro / DJay Pro as dj app.

I tried to use an USB-A to USB-C cable instead uf the USB-Lightning cable. I managed it, that the WeGo 4 could connect sometimes and be recognized and then all worked fine. But many times the hardware was not even recognized and after some testing I couldn't be able to connect the devices anymore... I think this might have something to do that the identification/handshake as USB MASTER/SLAVE device through USB-C connection didn't happen correctly with the cable (not original from Apple).

After finding this thread were somebody managed it to use the USB-PC (USB-B 2 USB-C) cable I remembered that I have an USB-C docking station (for Lenovo Laptops), where most hardware was recognized from the iPad (HDMI, USB hub and other...) I gave it a Try and connected the WeGo 4 on the Lenovo docking station and... Voilà! Everything is working perfectly, even my iPad is now turbo-charging with 90W. It might not be a Pioneer supported solution, but this will keep my WeGo4 on the track with my new iPad Air M1.

It might not be an option for any user to just buy a Lenovo docking station, since they are expensive as hell. But I think that every other charging capable iOS/MacOS USB-C docking station, which are available at f.ex. Amazon for 40-50 EUR, might work, since they might help the iPad / USB-C connection to the WeGo4  is automaticly setup correctly in regard to USB MASTER/HOST.

Maybe this answer will help some WeGo users to use it with newer iPads.
