How can I record my roland V-drums on my Ipad as I listen to tracks already there?

I want to make a few tracks in Garage Band (guitar, keyboard, bass) and then record my Roland V-drums along with them as I listen to the tracks. I want to use the audio out of the v-drums - NOT the MIDI. I'd like to do this with any generic line in, actually. What cables do I need, and how do I set this up in Garage Band? I have seen other posts allude to various methods but one question I have not seen clarified is: Will I be able to hear the other tracks on the Ipad as I play along with them?
thanks,
Paul

Thank you, that did just what I wanted. It also works in GarageBand if you select guitar amp as an instrument. Select a clean amp for input and turn monitor on, and you can hear whatever you're piping in via the iRig along with the other stuff you have already recorded.
For those who do not know what the iRig is, it allows you to connect a 1/4" jack from a guitar or other device at the other end, as if the iRig were an amp. You then connect the device to the headphone jack on the iPad. There is a small female end on the iRig for a headphone to plug into. This allowed me to set up a bass and one other instrument playing on the iPad as I recorded my drums.
To record the drums, I created a track with the Guitar Amp as an input, selected a clean amp as the amp of choice (you can add effects if you like, but I just wanted as true a sound as I could get). There is an icon on the upper left hand of the screen that looks like a jack or a plug. Select that and turn the monitor on to allow you to hear the sound on your headphones.

  • How can I transfer photos from my  iMac to my iPad and not lose the ones already stored on the iPad.

    How can I transfer photos from my  iMac to my iPad and not lose the ones already stored on the iPad?  When using iTunes to sync a folder from the iMac to the iPad it always removes anything previously synced.
    Help appreciated
    David

    I've just found out the reason for this behaviour. I am syncing from a computer which is different to the one I first synced with. iTunes can't cope with this situation so deletes anything synced from another source.

    I have an Apple 3GS phone. How can I record a telephone call?

    Sorry, not natively supported on a non-jailbroken iPhone, & there are no Apps that provide this capability for non-jailbroken iPhones. Apple is a US based company, & doing such is not legal in many parts of the US. That's why such is not supported.

  • How can I record an audio sound and convert it to a ringtone?

    How can I record an audio sound and convert it to a ringtone?

    Record your voice using iPhone (for ringtone only 35 secs or under are valid), sync iPhone with iTunes.
    In iTunes the recorded voice is listed under Music as some_numbers.m4a.
    Right click on the item and choose Create AAC version.
    Drag the converted voice onto the desktop.
    Delete the voice copy in iTunes. (important step)
    On desktop, rename the some_number.m4a to something_more_intelligent.m4r
    Drag it back to iTunes and you will find it under Tones.
    Now select it (for sync) and connect your iPhone, do a sync.
    If everything works out, it will be in Settings > Sounds > Ringtone.
    Now choose a contact you want to assign this ringtone, tap Edit and add the ringtone.
    Hope this helps.

  • How can I record an Audio Instrument (saxophone) and listen to a reference track at the same time?

    How can I record an Audio Instrument, and listen to a reference track at the same time?

    Are you using an external audio controller or the line-in and headphone jacks on the side of your computer? You shouldn't have an issue using headphones when you're recording through the line-in but you may want to make sure you have monitoring on and it's going to the right place.
    If you're using an external audio controller, try making an aggregate device combining the controller and the "built-in output" into the same device. Go to Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup, click the "+" sign at the bottom left to make a new device and check the "use" boxes to the left of the physical devices you want to use as part of that aggregate device. That is how I use the computer's speakers or headphones to monitor my input as opposed to only being able to use the output on my audio controller.
    Now that I see some of the questions on the side of this page I realize that the 13" MBPs seem to have only one combined input/output jack... That is an incredibly stupid feature. What on Earth could possibly justify that design decision? I suppose if that's the problem you're having you'll have to buy some sort of splitter (if they even make them) or get an external audio controller like an Apogee Duet or something along those lines. I would be furious if they combined those two jacks on all of the MBPs.

  • How can I record a video with LAbview?

    Hi,
    I have a question: How can I record a video with labview?
    I have a camera (AXIS 221) connected via rj45 on PC. I see the video of the camera in a browser.
    And I would to acquire the video in labview.
    Could someone help me?
    Thanks
    Raf

    Unfortunately I haven't any experience with this camera. Iguess, you should install API, then crete new VI, place ActiveX container (palette Container->ActiveX) on the Front Panel, then right mouse click, then choose Insert ActiveX object..., then found you camera object and select it and press OK. Then you probably can see image from the on the front panel. Also probably you will be able to get image data in array (how easy is it - depends from the camera API).
    If you able to see image from camera in the Internet Explorer, then another method - you can put Microsoft Web Browser as ActiveX object, then you should also see the image. Disadvantage of this method - you will be not able to get image data.

  • How can i record a song in a karaoke music track via GB?

    how can i record a song in a karaoke music track via GB?

    First plug in some headphones.
    Then drop the karaoke song into garageband. You do this by just draging and dropping the song file into garageband or if the song is in itunes just use garagebands media browser.
    Now create another track (vocal track).
    Put headphones on hit record and sing.
    This is a bit over simplifed but give it a try someone will be here when you have more specific problems.

  • How can i record iphone 4 screen no j/b?

    Hello. Not long ago I got interested how can i record my iphone 4 screen. I've tryed to mirror ipone to mac, but it didn't work! Then i've tryed to find an app that can do it, but the apss had bad reviews on them.
    Could somebody please tell me how can i record my iphone 4 screen without jailbreak?

    Correction. Reflector only works with iPhone 4s and up. The same goes for AirServer.
    The device needs support for mirroring which is only available for iPad 2, iPad Retina, iPad 4, iPad mini, iPod Touch 5, iPhone 4S and iPhone 5. But from what I know, you can record your screen with UX Recorder on iPhone 4 (but only in web browsers).

  • How can I record the MASTER BUS?

    We use Audition to record programs for airing. I would like to record the output of the effects rack (after applying a limiter, etc). How can I record the output of the Master or other Bus?

    You don't actually record it as such - you mix the master output down to a new file, which opens in Edit view where you can save it.
    So in Multitrack view, that's Edit>Mix Down to New File, and select the particular option you want. So if you only want part of a session mixed, then make an appropriate time selection, and select that option.

  • How can I record with GarageBand 1.3 in the background using other app?

    How can I record with GarageBand 1.3 in the background using other app?
    I use iPad 2 with iOS 6 and GarageBand v1.3.
    I'd like to play an other app like Sunrizer synth while the GarageBand is recording in the background in a track.
    By now I can do it only using the build-in mic of iPad, but this is not the point.
    Can I record other apps in a GarageBand track?
    Thanks a lot for your time.

    I suspect you are probably correct about the reasoning, although there are already a myriad of ways to do that.
    Don't get me wrong - I never said I like this. But it is consistent with other Apple applications, that are similar restrictive; you cannot take a screenshot, when dvd-player is running for example.
    That are the moments, when I am glad that MacOS X is a unix system under the hood
