Lightning adapter causes noise

Hi there. I have an iRig2 and I'm using Audiobus > Tonebridge > Loopy HD for recording guitar (just private stuff, nothing high quality or for live performing). I've just bought an iPhone 8 which only has a Lightning connector. So I have to use the lightning to headphones adapter / dongle to be able to plug in the iRig2.

However, I am experiencing cracks and noises; it doesn't sound as crisp as it used to. Is this a known issue caused by the lightning adapter and are there (cheap) fixes for this?

    Hey, this happened to me as well. Using Loopy through my amplifi 150, disconnected and reconnected it a few times and the issue seemed to clear up. I just started using it though, so hopefully it doesn't come back.

    Try pulling power from different places.
    Try a furman power conditioner.

    Worst case, unless you are using studiomux, run the iPad on batteries.
