MIDI connection

I am not certain what you mean by "control", and you do not state which model of keyboard you have, or which iPad app you are running.  If you are talking about the sliders on the CTK-7000/7200 or WK-7500/7600, then they only transmit MIDI Continuous Controller ( CC ) messages when the keyboard is in Drawbar Organ mode, and in that case, you would need to check the keyboard's MIDI Implementation Manual for the specific CC messages they transmit and program the iPad app to respond appropriately when it receives those messages.   The Pitch Bend wheel and Modulation button should work, but the keyboard's sequencer Transport controls ( REW, FF, PAUSE, PLAY/STOP ) do not transmit MIDI CC messages at all, so you will need to do that yourself directly on the iPad app.  As for the other buttons on the keyboard's front panel that may transmit CC messages, the iPad app would need to be programmed to respond appropriately to the CC messages they send as listed in the keyboard's MIDI Implementation Manual.

Hello this is kenneth once I connect the I pad air to the casio wk7500 I hear through the casio the sounds as per instrument chosen but when I turn local Contro to OFF on the Casio in the midi section instead of touching the I pad the sound should be produced by using the keys on the Casio I can't get that to happen .

On the WK-7500, momentarily press the FUNCTION button to bring up the "-Function-" menu.  Press the RIGHT ARROW ( > ) button to go to Page "2/2" of the menu.  DOWN ARROW to "MIDI".  Press ENTER.  If "KeyboardCh" is not set to "01", use the DATA WHEEL or the + / - buttons to set it to "01".  Press EXIT twice to return to the home display screen.  Make sure that your iPad app is set to receive on MIDI Channel 1.  If you are using Garage Band, it defaults to Channel 1 and should work.  If that still does not work, you may have a connectivity problem.  Try a different USB cable from the Lightning adapter cable to the keyboard.
