USB-A adapter (both sold separately).

AUDIO CONNECTIONS
Here are a few things to keep in mind as you are
making audio connections to your M Series
interface.
CONNECTING TO AN iOS DEVICE
Recent-generation Apple iOS devices have two
types of connectors: Lightning or USB-C.
For iOS devices with a USB-C port, simply
connect the M Series interface directly to the iOS
device with a standard USB-C-to-C cable (sold
separately).
Mic/line/instrument inputs with preamps
Connect a microphone, guitar or line-level analog
input to the XLR/quarter-inch combo jacks with
either a standard mic cable or a balanced cable
with a quarter-inch plug.
For iOS devices with a Lightning port, the
following is required (to supply enough power):
Do not connect a +4 (line level) XLR cable to
the inputs (because of the preamps). Use a
quarter-inch input instead.
