How can I use the iPad as a sound source for my Mac?

I would like to be able to record sound off my iPad, onto my Mac. (I'm using a musical app that only allows me to save short recordings, so I would like to plug my iPad into my Mac and record the music into my Mac, into Audacity or something.)
I know you can't just connect the iPad from the headphone jack, so I'm wondering what equipment I would need.
I've heard that the iPad camera connector can be used to export audio out, does anyone know how that works?
Or, are there any iPad apps available that will make exportable sound recordings of any sounds your iPad is making (from any other app?) You know, like a screen shot, but for sound instead?
(BTW, I am not interested in streaming music from my iPad. I already know how to do that. I'm trying to export audio from a musical instrument app I'm using.)

Unfortunately that link doesn't provide the info I'm looking for...
Answering part of my own question: it ISN'T possible to record audio on the iPad from one app to another. Technically not possible, so there are no apps that serve this purpose.
So, I'm still looking for details on how to connect my iPad to my Mac and use it as a sound source. I would like to record directly onto my Mac whatever sounds my iPad is outputting, by connecting the iPad to the Mac's audio input in some way.

Or you can use home sharing for free, but it will only allow you to play movies and music from itunes.
Or you can use any remote desktop software

I love my music, would love a iPod for this reason but the iPad air sounds really good too. Can i use the iPad air like a iPod for travel (in car).

I love music when I travel, I still have a older mp3 player that I can plug in the car stereo. I listen to various artists, a variety of music. Love to make a big play list for a long road trip.
I'm in the market for a Ipod touch or a ipad air, would I be able to do the same with the Ipod verses Ipad air.
I would use the WiFi for connection.
Compare for me the differences.
Remember i would want to use it when im out traveling on the road for music.

The wifi-only iPad is basically large iPod touch. There are some aps that are for the iPad only.
The new devices a a Lightning cable vice the older 30-pin connector.
One of these adopters/cables may work:

How do i use the same apple ID and password for my mac mini, my ipod and my ipad?

how do i change my ipod touch apple id and password to be the same as my mac mini and my ipad?
I cannot load updates any of my apps.

- Apps are prementently tied to the account that purchased them and you have to sign into that account to update the apps. If you have apps that need updating from more than one account you need to update them one at a time util the remainig apps were purchased from one account.
- Go to Settings>Store to sign out and sign into anohter account

How can I use the iPad to communicate in the Netherlands without incurring huge charges?

Depends on how you are planning on communicating. If you use Wif, then no. If you are using cellular data, you would need to discuss this with your carrier. We wouldn't know here.

Can I use the ipad keyboard Dock for pairing with a non Apple laptop?

I am thinking of getting the keyboard dock for my IPad 2.
I also have an IBM laptop with blutooth. Can I use the iPad dock as a keyboard for the IBM?
Thanks

If you're referring to this dock:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC533LL/B?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjE&mco=MTg1ODE1Mjc
it is not a Bluetooth keyboard so can't be used with the laptop. And the keyboard dock was originally designed for the curved back of the iPad1. So while it does appear to work with the iPad2, some people report that it's a little loose and sometimes get intermittent disconnections with the connector.
As for Bluetooth keyboards, some can only be paired to one device. To use with two computers, you may have to un-pair from the first device, the re-pair to the second device. Some keyboards can "switch" without un-pairing, but you have to research to ensure the model you want will do that. Depending on your usage, it may be more worthwhile to get separate keyboards.

How can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

I have two iPads.. an iPad and an ipad 2. I registared my new ipad 2 and now my old ipad is will not let me log on and is telling me that my e-mail address is already in use. how can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

And by using the same Apple ID you can also share purchases. If you have a different Apple ID for each iPhone then you can't share purchases.

How can I use my ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections. The apple store clerk told me that I can't use airport express unless I also have a computer with me in the hotel.

How can I use my Ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections? The Apple store clerk told me that travel express won't work in my hotel unless I also have a computer.

The issue with the Airport Express (or any of the Apple routers) is that you need the Airport Utility to configure it. Airport Utility works on OSX and Windows, but not on the iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch.) It will work, if you can preconfigure the Airport correctly ahead of time, but you'd be stuck if you did need to reconfigure while at the hotel.
You can use most any other router that is configured with a web page, which means you have a chance of configuring with Safari on the iPad. If you want something somewhat portable, I use a "travel router" made by D-Link. The current model is the DAP-1350. Other companies make similar travel routers, but I have no experience with the others.
