How to route HELIX into iPad > Loopy HD when both iPad and HELIX are plugged into Mac via USB

Hi - I plugged my iPad into a USB port on my iMac and used the OSX 10.11.5 Audio MIDI Setup utility to route my iPads audio output to my iMac's CoreAudio using "Show iOS Device Browser" . This is so i can play back audio from any iOS app thru my iMacs built-in outputs etc.

 

But how can I now configure my Mac so that my HELIX ( plugged into the mac via USB ) can have its audio routed into the iPad so I can use Loopy HD as a looper in this setup ?

 

Plugging the iPad directly into the HELIX works - but I need this setup to work too - since my HELIX needs to be able to be ( ideally ) permanently connected to my iMac while still being able to use Loopy HD from time to time without plugging and unplugging everything ....

Any ideas ?

 

 

surely this can be achieved without buying a iConnectMIDI box no ?

Have you tried creating an Aggregate audio device?  that might work.

 

think you do it from the Mac System Prefs sound section.

 

Edit - no it's actually done from Audio MIDI setup.. in the Utilities folder with the Applications folder..

 

Still not sure if it will help though!!
