garageband

good day noobie on MacBook pro -

musician using garageband having used it a lot on ipad air. question is... on ipad air I downloaded a lot of music apps like soft synths, korg products

roland and guitar effect apps. Is there a way I can plug my ipad into my MacBook and use the apps on the ipad to record onto garageband MacBook???

just a shame you cant get same apps on a MacBook pro.

also is there a way to pitch the loops on garageband. if I have a bass loop in C and I need it pitched down to A and F - is there a way this can be done or do I need to set up one loop on three tracks all pitched differently and then cut up ??

apologies if my questions trigger a "***" response but would appreciate your learned assistance.

I don't use the other iPad apps, so I cannot be sure. But GarageBand on the iPad can record from your other iPad apps, if they are using audiobus.

Then transfer the GarageBand iOS project to your Mac by sharing the song to iTunes as a song and not as an audio file. On your Mac import it from iTunes to GarageBand on Mac.

Stevenoobie,

If you select the loop you want in another key, then click on the editors button (looks like a pair of scissors), look for the transpose slider and adjust away.

Hope this info helps.

Enjoy.

Kevin.
