Need to be able to record microphone and elgato at the same time.
I game and the elgato audio captures my Xbox but I cannot capture my microphone I also have hooked up to the m4 iPad. If I open the Xbox app and try to use the microphone on there at the same time the elgato app is open, the elgato app instantly crashes everytime until the microphone is not in use on any other app including voice memos
It works amazing as intended for this iPad, but when it comes to using legato Chat Link pro, I had to use my MacBook Pro to change settings from hdmi to analog for it to work for both MacBook and iPad. That feature should be added to this app as well instead of using a pc to do it.
I love how easy everything is on the app but we are missing features and one of the most crucial features we dont have is the ability to record HDR like the PC app does, for that reason alone I will give this 4 stars and if they ever do HDR recording on the ipad then I bump it to a 5 star rating!
I wanted to record my video game consoles (eg. Wii U), and my laptop isn’t capable at recording at 1080p 60 FPS. Then I remembered that iPads can record over USB-C, and I downloaded this app. I recorded the gameplay to a external SSD, which is connected to an inexpensive USB-C dock. Since I have a M1 iPad Air, the footage came out great! Thanks Elgato!
As a videographer, this is a game changer! Make sure you have a Thunderbolt 3 or higher in order to unlock all resolution the app allows. Ran into one issue where i have to reset the recording destination to the downloads folder every time I open the app. Very small issue compared to the positives. Thank you Elgato!!!!
The app works pretty well, but I have a few issues. I usually have to connect and disconnect the input multiple times before the app recognizes the input. Setting it to 4k when playing a lower resolution stream like from a Switch just shows a blank screen. The biggest issue is no audio passthrough. I get audio in the recordings but no matter what my settings are in the app or on my iPad, there is no audio coming through the speakers or headphones unless I record it and watch it back.
This app does exactly as it says. I was able to connect the HD60s+ to my iPad Air and record video. One caveat I ran into… When I connected it with a USB 4 cable, it was only capturing at 6-7 frames per second. Once I connected a Thunderbolt cable, it jumped up to 60fps.
I have an HD60 S and this app is not compatible.

Dear Mc. Flabbington, we're sorry but this is actually right. The HD60 S can't support any video capture app on iOS. As mentioned in the description only these can: - HD60 X: Experience crisp, high-quality game capture with ease.
- HD60 S+: Elevate your streaming game with seamless, low-latency recording.
- Cam Link 4K: Unleash the potential of 4K video recording.
- Facecam and Facecam Pro: Perfect for vlogging – try recording with the integrated iPad microphone or connect an Elgato Wave:3.
The app can only support our UVC devices. Unfortunately the HD60 S isn't one. We would love to solve an issue but from a technical point of view that's not possible.
If there's just a missing "+" and you actually have an HD60 S+ feel free to contact our support: help.elgato.comAs an output audio device, it’s not stable. I am trying to use it to record a live production session - I am producing on a M1 MacBook Air, i have the HD60s+, and an M1 iPad Pro. When I record a song, and then listen to the playback through the HD60S+ recording, it’s fine. When I attempt to record, using the HD60s+ an output source, Ableton Live 11 Suite crashes.
Additionally, on the iPad Mini 6 gen, the dark mode is broken, all the elements on the screen are the wrong color. Also, it has the same issue as the iPad Pro.
I would love to use it as an alternative to needing a second computer, but in it’s current state, I cannot use it.
I will be waiting for the update
