Hi, here's an example of one that would work for a micro USB socket:

And one that would work with USB C:

You'll see many similar ones online, and these are just examples that I found quickly, but with USB cables and adapters you generally just want to look for ones that mention something about data or transfer speeds, indicating that they are for data in addition to charging. Some of the cheapest cables and adapters only support charging, and not data transfer.

With your USB C device you also have the option of just using a cable with micro USB on one end and USB C on the other. That way you would have a single cable with no adapter. However, if you're using the WARBL bell sensor I'd recommend using one of the cables that came with WARBL, as I've verified that the plugs are slim enough to fit next to the sensor.

Hi.
Looking for usb c, with 3.5 audio adaptor (or full cable with micro usb on other side), for my xiaomi mi 10T which is without 3.5 connection.
I have only 3.5 plus charge port... It doesn't work.
Thanks

You could try something like this one. In my experience, if they mention MIDI compatibility somewhere in the description they seem to work with WARBL:

Thanks ❤️🙏
Since high percentage of the reviews say it doesn't work for them, i can guess that it works with certain devices (models)...
So i will try to find something recommend on the Chinese side for my xiaomi... even though it will be harder probably to find "midi comparability" indication, there.

This one seems to have questions support, and does mention "midi"... but... again... seems to work on some devices.
(It is model DA30 by BIMONK. they sell in many websites)

I just managed to play through the earphones on my Android... Using a 20 years old cheap usb sound card, attached to a ucb c to usb 2.0 hub (one for the warbl, and one for the sound card). The volume was low, but i could play together with YouTube. I hope a better new sound card will give stronger volume.
