iPad Camera Connection Kit as a Digital Audio Interface

been experimenting with the new iPad Camera Connection Kit and today I hit the mother load. As an audio geek I wanted a way to be able to put clean high quality audio into my iPad with more than just a 1/8 inch jack. Today I experimented with this by using a Plantronics USB to 1/8 mic input that came with a headset mic that I bought. In essence this is a mini USB sound card. So I plug this into the iPad and then I come out of my Mackie ONYX 1220 board main outputs and turn on the Bias iProRecorder app for iPhone. Much to my surprise I'm able to record out of the Mackie board with very high quality (please listen to the audio) and I'm there fore able to use the iPad as a full on digital recorder. This is huge as if I use something like the Griffin iMic (or potentially another USB sound card, I can use the iPad as my recorder in the field etc. I did not alter the sound in any way (you will hear some hiss) and I did convert the 44.1Khz WAV recording to mp3. This alone makes the iPad Camera Connection Kit worth the price, and it keeps reminding me that when Apple says the iPad is Magic... well there maybe something to that.
