I should have done more research but I have a new iPhone 7 coming and can't figure out what bit of equipment I would need to connect my iRig pro keyboard which has a lightning connector to my iPhone 7 and still listen to headphones.
I can see there are tons of charge an headphone adaptors but none of them pass usb data on the charge bit. They only er... charge.
Any ideas?
Em.. How do connect my iRig Pro keyboard and listen to headphones on my new iPhone 7.

I have not tried this but how about connecting a 4 in 1 lightning USB hub and then use a USB mini portable DAC/amp to connect to the hub. Use the normal USB cable for the keyboard connection also to the hub.

Thanks. I will look into it.
I understand that Apple have a iPhone 7 doc that will pass data and has a headphone socket. I will try that.

I figured a way.
Get a OTG to lightning cable which looks like this.
And a powered USB Hub.
Connect the keyboard via usb to the hub. Connect the audio interface, i'm using a Behringer UFO202 to the hub using usb.
Connect the lightning cable to the iPhone 7. That's it.
Glorious sound and keyboard action. It works well and quite cheap.
