Apogee Mic 96K and iOS 10.3 - Static & Delay

Anyone else use Apogee Mic 96k with iOS 10.3 successfully? I'm getting static and delay in GarageBand. Never had a problem before the 10.3 update. The mic appears to work fine with Camera app recording video.

iPhone SE, iOS 10.1.1

Hello Roger. I was working with Apple technical support and it looks like at this point Apple is aware of the issue. Hopefully we see a fix in the near future, probably in the form of a GarageBand or iOS update. I'm not really sure.


I was able to test both on two other devices, iPad Pro and iPhone 5S. The iPad Pro running iOS 10.3 had the same delay problem. The iPhone 5S running the previous version of iOS just before the 10.3 update had no issues, no delay.


Apple suggested trying the 10.3.1 update but stated that they did not think it would help. They were correct. Same delay.

How does the mic connect and what app are you trying to use. I found the Apogee Mic worked fine with the camera app. It only appeared to be GarageBand that was having the trouble. Apple sent out a GarageBand update yesterday, version 2.2.2. I still have the latency problem when first starting the app. However, I found that if I close GarageBand after getting the latency with Apogee Mic and reopening GarageBand the problem goes away until I unplug the mic and plug it back in. Then I need to close and reopen GarageBand again. Pre iOS 10.3 replugging in the mic was not a problem. However, at least it is usable again. But not as smooth as it was.

I'm having this delay issue in garageband iOS 10.3.3 iPadPro using the shure mV88 and the iRig Studio Mic. I never had this issue before the update. The only work around for me is to export the song in garageband into Audio Evolution and record vocals there as the latency is good over there. The other workaround is using a Zoom u-24 with a real condenser mic. However, it would be awesome if I could just record straight into garageband with a lightening connector mic. Apple please fix!
