After looking around I think the Roland Go:keys will do the job. Full size keys and decent sounds. Small enough and a bit plasticky, but not a bad price.
I'm happy to use this for stuff in the house which is why I went for it, but I'll try it at a couple of rehearsals with one of my bands and see how it plays with the iPad.
As mentioned my iPad is 2018 model I think and has a headphones socket so don't need to worry about Bluetooth.
got the midi keyboard NI A61
Ipad camera connector says no, "it consumes too much power" so now need to get the newer apple camera connection kit. Another £30...
Bizarrely I got given another midi keyboard last night an old 88 m-audio keystation 88es which does work fine with the ipad..
Not working, same message.
I give up.
Got Synth One?. pretty good for free.
Do you have the second type - https://www.apple.com/uk/shop/product/MK0W2ZM/A/lightning-to-usb-3-camera-adapter - IIRC you need the charging cable to be plugged into the Lightning connector.
can't be arsed with it tbh.
my ancient shite M-audio keystudio 49es works fine with the ipad and for a quick rehearsal/jam its probably good enough.
I tried it with m-audio 88 keystation and it works fine with that as well.
the ipad also works brilliantly with the Yamaha YC73 keyboard and so that could be a goer as well for some extra synth sounds.
Keystation is decent and iPad is ok working with it but I don't think it's robust enough as a gigging solution.
