Can I just connect my iPad to the Katana via a usb-c to usb-b cable or do I have to buy the usb adaptor?

A Great Tool on the gig For Katana Users!!
I have been using the Katana amps professionally since they were released and I love them…perhaps the most versatile single amp I’ve ever owned with! Enter The Katana Librarian app… it is a big step forward in getting the most out of this amp platform as it has allowed me to adjust the internal parameters at the gig from an iPad instead of hauling and dealing with a computer @ the gig:-0
Sean the developer is diligent with the updates and fixes and I encourage the Katana community to buy this app and help him to continue the development of this very useful tool!

Great App. Must Have.
The app has a feature that the Boss Tone Studio doesn’t. With the Katana Librarian app, you can tweak a patch then save it directly to your library. Tone Studio makes you save it to one of the amp channels. Lame!
Once you start using this app you’ll never need to use the Tone Studio again. No more laptop. The app does it all as far as I can tell. Nice job!
