Ipad 2 to iMac Garage band track transfer

Hi, is there a simple way to transfer my ipad2 garage band tracks onto my iMac and Vice versa.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Here's what I did. Alternative products and apps may be available but this worked for me
Purchaces:
iRig Midi (physical device)
MidiBridge (app)
Configuration:
Connect the midi out of the Yamaha DTXplorer to the midi in of the iRig Midi
Connect the iRig Midi to your iPad
Now, here's the bit that made me think it was worth writing this post. The DTXplorer doesn't support custom midi mapping and it uses different midi notes than those used by GarageBand for iPad. To get around this you need to remap the incomming midi on the iPad using an app such as MidiBridge.
In MidiBridge, connect the iRig input to the MidiBridge output
Select the config icon on the iRig input and apply the Note Mapper. Here is what you need to remap to get things working
Bass Drum: A0 (33) -> C1 (36)
Low Tom: G1 (43) -> F1 (41)
Mid Tom: B1 (47) -> A1 (45)
Snare Drum: G0 (31) -> D1 (38)
The rest are mapped properly by default
In MidiBridge, you might want to save the configuration
Open up GarageBand and drum away!

  • Can the new pre installed apps in iPad 2. Like garage band, iMovie be sync back to i tune, and then sync these new apps from ipad2 to the old iPad 1?

    Can the new pre installed apps in iPad 2. Like garage band, iMovie be sync back to i tune, and then sync these new apps from ipad2 to the old iPad 1?

    GB and iMovie pre installed?

    Click: Browser All Built In Apps
    iMovie and GB must be purchased.
    If you have installed GB and iMovie on the iPad 1 and synced using iTunes, just sync the those apps to the newer iPad with iTunes. No re purchase necessary with the same iTunes account.

  • Sending garage band track and movie back to i movie

    I sent my i movie to garage band so that I could create an audio track to accompany the footage.
    How do I then send this back to i movie for further editing?
    I have tried using the share tab but this only gives options to send to i dvd, i tunes or i web.
    Any suggestions???

    This is simpler than it seems.
    when you send a movie from iMovie to GarageBand you should already be done with the video editing.
    This is for future reference, when you send your movie to GB do all you need to do with the audio, (for example: scoring, re-recording or enhancing the audio)
    when you're done with that you dont need the video anymore (dont send the whole thing back to GB). Since you're only using the video for reference delete the video from GB (leaving just the audio), then send it to iTunes as a song recording.
    Now open iMovie and and then click on the "Media" button on the bottom right
    then find your song and use it as the audio.
    So now you dont have to re-send your GB video to iMovie.
    -RATM-Man
    P.S.
    Before you use the iTunes song as your audio, quit iMovie and save it.
    right after you quit, re-open iMovie, and THEN you should open the media button and find your song (if you dont do this you wont be able to find your song in the search thingy.)

  • Mixdown Garage Band Track to iTunes - result comes out silent.

    I use garage band to contain several tracks I have recorded live. I mute and lock all tracks except the one I want to play I unmute and then choose mixdown to iTunes. The resulting file in iTunes is silent. When I go back and try to play the unmuted track in Garage Band it plays silent. Only when I double-click on the track and choose 'monitor sound' then go back to the track window does it then play in Garage Band and then I can send it to iTunes successfully. The problem is, I still haven't discovered why a track will not play or send to iTunes. What control is making this happen/not happen. Apparently the 'monitor sound' check box is not the answer because sometimes it works and sometimes not. There seems to be something else that is causing a track to be silent or to play and it is other than the mute button.
    Any clues on this?
    TIA,
    Ken

    I use garage band to contain several tracks I have
    recorded live. I mute and lock all tracks except the
    one I want to play I unmute and then choose mixdown
    to iTunes.
    There is no reason to lock a track you don't want to play. Locking is very useful if you have a lot of effects, or if it is a software track that is taxing the CPU. If none of those conditions exist, then locking is a wasted effort.
    The resulting file in iTunes is silent.
    When I go back and try to play the unmuted track in
    Garage Band it plays silent. Only when I double-click
    on the track and choose 'monitor sound' then go back
    to the track window does it then play in Garage Band
    and then I can send it to iTunes successfully.
    The monitor function should only be a factor when recording, not on playback. It is to allow you to monitor with any effects you have selected while recording. I never use this option, because I don't apply any effect until I have recorded the track and I am mixing.
    The problem is, I still haven't discovered why a track
    will not play or send to iTunes. What control is
    making this happen/not happen. Apparently the
    'monitor sound' check box is not the answer because
    sometimes it works and sometimes not. There seems to
    be something else that is causing a track to be
    silent or to play and it is other than the mute
    button.
    Any track that is muted will not play. If you have any tracks soloed, no non-soloed tracks will play. I am not sure just what you could be doing here. Make sure all tracks are not muted and not soloed. Then mute any you don't want, and mix to your satisfaction. When you are satisfied, export to iTunes should give you exactly what you hear in GB.

  • Making an mp3 a garage band track

    Is there a way to take an .mp3 song and import it as a track into garage band?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    +Is there a way to take an .mp3 song and import it as a track into garage band?+
    Yes. Just drag it to the Timeline. If it won't import, check to see if it's labeled MP3. If so, change it to mp3, and try again.

  • Separating and IDing GARAGE BAND tracks

    GARAGE BAND

    When transferring music from a cassette - to the computer - to a CD, I lose the track designators. That is, all the songs on the CD are on "track one". Can I retain the track designators using only the software that comes with Garage Band or do I have to go to other sources to have that capability?
    Thanks in advance

    It is also quite easy to split the large track into smaller ones.
    • Set the playhead on a silent space between tracks.
    • Select split in the edit menu.
    • Do this for each silent area.
    Then create new tracks to put these sections into:
    • Select the track and press ⌘ +d for each new track.
    • Drag the sections each into their own track.
    • Click on the solo button for each track and then export to iTunes
    The advantage to this is control over fade outs and fade ins. You can even fade one track into another if you wish. You can also control individual volumes more easily.

  • How do I attach an electric drum kit to an iPad 2 to use garage band?

    Hi guys,
    I have recently discovered garge band on iPad 2 and really do think there's is heaps of potential with it! However I have come stuck with a few things... I want to use my Yamaha DTXplorer as a drum kit and have heard that this is possible with the right tools, problem is this is all new to me and I haven't got a clue how to do it...
    My question is, is it possible to do this with the iPad 2 and with my Yamaha DTXplorer, and if so what do I need / how do I do it? Also what are the costs involved with doing this?

  • I am trying to connect my ipad version of garage band to my mac book pro so as to record directly from the ipad as a midi instrument but with no success.  Can you help?

    I am trying to connect my ipad to my mac book pro.  I want to use the ipad as a software instrument (playing from garage band) and to record in garage band on the mac book.  I have plugged the ipad in, turned on the ipad and opened up garage band but the mac book pro has not picked it up.  Why?  Any suggestions.

    Maybe it should, I'm all PC here so I can't actually test it myself. As far as I can recall all the stuff I've read has GarageBand for iOS acting as the recording instrument in the MIDI relationship rather than an input device for something else.
    Could be worth posting to GarageBand for iOS Feedback and suggesting it as a feature.

  • Minimum Processor for Garage Band 3

    Hello Happy New Year!
    I have a G5 1.8 that I use as my main computer, and use Final Cut, and Garage Band a lot of the time.
    I also have a small sound studio in my basement, and would like to get another back-up computer to also use Garage Band, and Pro Tools.
    The Apple minumum requirement for the installation of iLife 06 is a Power Mac G4 733 Mhz processor.
    With this information, I'm leaning toward buying an 800 mhz, 933mhz, or even 1 Gig mhz Power Mac G4. Do you guys think I should shoot for no less than a 1 Gig Processor to be on the safe side? I'm also trying to safe a little money too.
    Thank you
    Mike

    Hi Hang Time
    How ya doin?
    Thank you so much for your reply ....
    "It depends on how far you plan to push GB, and how/what exactly you plan to record"
    Yes well, I'd like to use the 2nd computer (with Garage Band), to record voice-overs. Say about 10-15 minutes of dialogue at any one time on a single Garage Band track. I don't intend to do any multi-tracking musical scores, but definitely some voice-overs.
    What do you think:
    Say at least a 1 Gig Processor, and 1 Gig Minimum Ram?
    Thanx again
    Mike

  • Garage Band update does not update on i-pad?

    I'm trying to update garage band but nothing is happening. It says it's "installing" but it's said that for 36 hours, with many re-trys.

    Sorry - I meant iPad.
    I updated Garage Band using iTunes a few days ago. It took about 10 minutes in total (download and install). I guess it depends on your connection speed (and reliability). If your connection blips or times out then it will keep retrying. My connection is approx. 16 Mbps and very stable.
    I guess you have the latest version of iTunes running ?  If you have, then I think it must be to do with your ISP.
