garageband real time effects help
I previously posted about hooking up my guitar using garageband so that I could have the garageband effects play out my amp. I went out and bought the right cables and adaptor (I will post pictures of my setup) What happens is I will press record in garageband and play a few chords on my guitar (as an example) then I will stop the recording and press play in garageband. My chords along with the effects I chose will then come out of my amp. (which ais fine) However this is not real time. Is it possible to use the garageband effects in real time, (when I use an effect on my guitar while playing have that effect come out the amp and feel like my guitar is "playing" that effect) without having to press record all the time. (sometimes I just like to mess around with the effects) a detailed description of how to accomplish this would be a big help.
here is my setup with description
the guitar cable is hooked up to my guitar from there the other end of the cable is plugged into the 1/4 to 1/8 adaptor in the INPUT port and the 1/8 to 1/8 audio stereo is plugged into the audio OUTPUT and lastly the other end of the audio stereo cable is plugged into the mp3 INPUT on my amp
Thank you for your help it is greatly appreciated (:
