Exactly what I was looking for. Works just fine, my Shure Condenser Mic about to connect to the iPad. Thanks 9V battery signal is noise-free and with decent level in GarageBand. That it possibly professional requirements, this may not be enough, okay. But who expects a 25 Euro Accessories to beat recording equipment, which costs tens of times? For sample, home recording and professional durchais even simple applications such as short Web video on a budget absolutely sufficient. Price-performance is very good, strong buy recommendation.
