- I would like to transpose in live the music I play on my piano. My keyboard has a transpose feature but does the job only for the audio out, not for MIDI (Genio-NEO). I found a tool, Midi Patchbay: it creates a new virtual port with transposed notes (adjustable by clicking). However, GarageBand plays 2 sounds, the original and the transposed one.

GarageBand User Guide for iPad
2011-5-10 I'm using GarageBand on iPad2, I do most of my own recordings. My question is can if I recorded a song with my guitar in key C, can I transpose it to a higher key on the iPad? I know on the Mac there is a pitch option but I can't find it on the iPad version of GarageBand. Please advice, thanks! My thanks in advance. GarageBand for iOS has everything you need to play, record, and share incredible music on your iPad or iPhone — now including Sound Library.
Each Touch Instrument has a set of track controls that lets you adjust its volume level, pan (stereo) position, and effect levels. You can also solo the instrument to hear it by itself, quantize or transpose the recordings on the instrument’s track, and change the master effects. You can save track control settings and use them on another track or in another project. A Touch Instrument’s track controls are available both when playing the instrument and when the track is selected in Tracks view.
Open the track controls
Mute or solo the track
- Mute or unmute the track: Tap the Mute button .
- Solo or unsolo the track: Tap the Solo button .
Adjust the track’s volume and pan position
Do either of the following:
- Drag the Track Volume slider left or right.
- Drag the Track Pan slider left or right.
You can also automate track volume changes. When using volume automation, the Track Volume slider cannot be adjusted.
Adjust the track’s compression
A compressor smoothes the difference between the loudest and softest parts of a track, and can help the track stand out or sound more “punchy.”
- Drag the Compressor slider left or right.
Adjust the track’s treble and bass levels
Do either of the following:
- Drag the Treble slider left or right.
- Drag the Bass slider left or right.
Quantize regions in the track
You can correct the timing of recordings in a track to a certain note value (called quantization). After you turn on quantization for a track, any new recordings or loops you add to the track are also quantized.
- Tap Track Settings, then tap Quantization.Quantization values appear in three categories: Straight, Triplet, and Swing.
- Tap one of the categories, then choose the note value you want to quantize the regions to.
Quantization applies to all regions in the track for the current song section, but you can choose different quantization values for the same track for different song sections. If you move or copy a region to a different section with a different quantization value, the value appears as Multiple. For more information about song sections and quantization, see Add song sections in GarageBand for iPad.
Transpose regions in the track
You can change the pitch of (or transpose) recordings or loops in a track up or down by semitones or octaves. After you turn on transposition for a track, any new recordings or loops you add to the track are also transposed.
Regions recorded with the Guitar, Bass, or Strings instruments cannot be transposed.
- Tap Track Settings, then tap Transposition.
- To transpose by octaves, tap the Octaves up or down arrow, or swipe vertically to transpose by multiple octaves.
- To transpose by semitones, tap the Semitones up or down arrow, or swipe vertically to transpose by multiple semitones.
Transposition applies to all regions in the track for the current song section, but you can choose different transposition values for the same track for different song sections. If you move or copy a region to a different section with a different transposition value, the value appears as Multiple. For more information about song sections and transposition, see Add song sections in GarageBand for iPad.
Merge recordings in a track
You can merge recordings made with Touch Instruments to create more complex parts. When you turn on merging, you can record a part, and, when the playhead starts over from the beginning of the section, record another part. The parts are merged into a single region.
The Merge Recordings switch is available when a track that supports merging is selected. By default, merging is on for the Drums, and off for the other supported Touch Instruments. Using Merge Recordings, you can also record notes for an instrument, then record changes to knobs and other controls separately and have the two merged.
- Turn merging on or off: Tap Track Settings, tap Recording, then tap the Merge Recordings switch.
Take Recording and Merge Recordings cannot both be activated at the same time. For more information about take recording, see Record multiple takes.
Change the master effects
Each song has a set of master effects, including master echo (delay) and master reverb. You can choose the master effects for the song, then use the Echo Level and Reverb Level sliders to control how much of the master effects is added to each instrument in the song.
- Tap Master Effects.
- Do one of the following:
- Tap Echo, then choose a new master echo preset from the list.
- Tap Reverb, then choose a new master reverb preset from the list.
- To return the master effects to their original settings, tap one or both of the effects, then tap Default.
Adjust the track’s master effect levels
Do either of the following:
- Drag the Echo Level slider left or right.
- Drag the Reverb Level slider left or right.

Hello all. After my last band folded I got kinda bummed and 'withdrew' from all things musical. I sold my old Muse Receptor and moved on with my life. After being away from all this stuff for like 4 years I recently got contacted by an old bandmate and I am getting the itch again.
Before my last band collapsed, I was using (in addition to my vocal gear as singing is my primary thing) an M-Audio Axiom Pro and a Roland AX-7 driving an early Muse Receptor. I have since sold off my Receptor but still have the Axiom and the Keytar.
For some time back then I was toying with the idea of an iPad-based rig. I just totalled up all the music app purchases I made back then and it shocked me so I figure with that investment, I owe it to myself (with a potential venture in the works) to revisit this.
iMIDIPATCHBAY seems to be the thing that was missing from the equation back in the day: a way to tie the apps into a cohesive setup with a controller.
So who out there is using iPads in a live keyboarrd rig setting and what has your experience been like? Receommendations? Pitfalls? etc.

Garageband Ipad Transpose
- Hi Mike,I used to use my mac with mainstage and loads of expensive plugins and string samples. Now I only use an ipad pro 12' live and play live every week. I use AUM to host my apps (iSymphony Orchestra for strings, Galileo for Hammond, Korg iM1 Synth, PPG Phonem, and Neo Soul for Rhodes). I use Midi designer as my midi controller, I use Midiflow as a midi anything modifier (routing volume pedals to expression, change velocity curve of Neo Soul, transpose up an octave Galileo, key range on iM1 etc etc) and finally Korg Plugkey hardware for audio out of the lightning socket, not the built in headphone socket. Not had a problem yet. Also now using the split screen feature of midi designer and a 12' screen - in landscape mode, I have my midi controller on the left, and lyrics/chords using 'ONSONG' on the right. Amazing sounds.
- I will add to @rhaley Midiband, iRealPro+Xmure combo and Bsmk16 for arranging approach. Also korg module, synthmaster, sensual sax, iMini, iPolysix and garageband alchemy.
If you need audio loops backing tracks then blocswave+launchpad combo and LooptunesHD for use it with your axiom instead needing a launch controller.
Midi wrench, audioshare and AB(3 soon) as tools.
For live looping Group The Loop for arranging songs with structure or Loopy masterpiece when it arrive. - I play in a wedding band (so strictly covers). My setup still consists mainly of hardware devices but my iPad is hooked up to my main keyboard via midi which allows additional sounds and easy layering options. I use a lot of what was mentioned above: Korg module with the Triton IAP is my main app, I use this with the setlist feature to quickly switch sounds, iSymphonic, Magellan, Noisepad for beats/samples, Beathawk, and a few others for fun. I have imidipatchbay but I am not currently using it.
I tried running a rig strictly with controller keyboard and iPad but had crashing and noise issues. More simple setups will work best with consideration to CPU. Overall I was not able to compromise the reliability of hardware since I am playing first dances and moments that cannot be relived! I know other guys run strictly iOS rigs without issue but my peace of mind is best kept in tact with a combination of hardware/software.
Current setup:
Korg Microkorg XL+
Roland RD 64 connected to iPad via ik multimedia irig 2
Yamaha MG06x mixer - i play live with casio px5 sound, and use ipad as an expander for some sounds. imidipatchbay is very good to manage app (i think also midiflow is similar). but one very important thing to know is that if you want to change preset automatically from imidipatchbay or similar the sound app that you use have to support bank/prog change to change preset. and unfortunately not all the apps support this (a 50% maybe). for example, from what I know, no arturia app support progam change, so the only way to change preset is in his own panel, and it isn't conmfortable.
read this https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/3894/bank-select-via-midi-ios-synthsi primarly use galileo for hammond, im1 and sampletank for general sounds, sunrizer or drc for synth, ibs 16 for string soundfont. - Wow thanks guys. This seems to be the most active forum around for this kind of usage.Ya hrestov, I may have pulled the trigger prematurely on iMIDIPATCHBAY: its a great little app, but I didnt do my homework: it seems to be that there has been very little progress in the past 4 years with iOS synths responding to MIDI patch change. I would have thought things would be in a lot better shape at this point.I like the idea of using the lightning connector for audio. I will have to look into that further.I am very glad to finally find some folks who are actually doing this live!
- More info on where I am at. I currently have an iPad 2 and an iRig MIDI adapter but if I can prove it can be the basis of a workable setup I will be in the market for an iPad Air 2 and I will likely go with the Yamaha bluetooth MIDI adapter, at least for the keytar.Below is a list of apps I have already acquired:

- I use my iPad Air 2 as a live keys rig. I have found it to be very stable! Some details:
- I use AUM to host all of my apps/effects
- I use SampleTank for pianos (an occasionally other misc sounds)
- I use iGrand as a secondary piano
- I use Poison 202 for pads & leads
- I send my pad to a bus and run it through Crystalline to give it some nice shimmer (which i can fade in/out as desired)
- My favorite delay is RP-1
- I'm trying to use AU for as much as possible.
- I use an iRig BlueBoard for a quick way to mute sounds and toggle delays on and off
- I use the faders on my Novation LaunchKey to mix my AUM channels and the knobs to adjust parameters such as low pass filters
- I use a bunch of additional apps depending on the set
- Haha, good you posted that, I was just about to.
- Thanks guys!I just acquired a new iPad, and have a Yamaha BT-01 on order. Not much for accessories for this yet.. I have to wait until the 10th to even get the apple case for this. #canadianproblemsAnyone have a recommendation on a universal ipad mic stand holder?
- well, I will be using it locked in landscape exclusively, but what is this rotation bug? I didnt see this yet, nor on my iPad 2 running an older iOS.
- So I have run into a couple issues/limitations with iMIDIPatchBay trying to use it in this fashion:Setlists: a great feature, in theory, however in practice, not so much:
- You cannot backup your setlists to dropbox like you can the patches (not a dealbreaker but it really should be an option)
- The patch numbers for setlist songs change when you re-order them, making external MIDI PC pretty much DOA. I would have to switch patches using iMIDIPatchBay. Am I missing something here?Multiple Masters: After wasting $14 CAD on unlocking the multiple masters IAP I discovered its essentially useless (to me). While you can have multiple master keyboards running on different MIDI channels, the app essentially sums it the inputs: I cannot route a MIDI master input channel to a particular instrument slot. This is an issue because on my physical MIDI controllers (Axiom, Ax7) I want to be able to quickly switch tones during a performance. For example, on my AX-7 each patch has an Upper and lower which I can layer or split or simply flip between. While I could transmit on the same channel and transpose the octaves and do essentially an iMIDIPatchBay split to do the two sounds, this is cumbersome - I then have to do an octave transpose in iMIDIPatchBay as well to compensate.I am beginning to think that there is no single app that allows me to do what I want. - Another update - my bluetooth MIDI adapter arrived. Yamaha MD-BT01I plugged it in and had to use iM1 to get the bluetooth MIDI up and running on the iPad. The signal however was very unreliable. Worked fine on my Axiom tho just not on the AX7. Maybe USB/AC powered VS battery powered?Anyways, I ran the Yamaha app and updated the firmware and all was good. Range was decent as well.
- edited May 2017I have a very simple live setup - iPad 2 running iM1 hooked up to an M-Audio Keystation 61. I need an easy way to change sound patches during a song. Suggestions?Thanks!

Suggestions?Thanks!iM1 accepts MIDI program changes so you could use your keyboard to change patches. I don't think your keyboard sends PC out of the box so you may have to use Midiflow or Midibridge to convert the message - you could for example use the bottom key on your keyboard to change to the next patch.Korg doesn't seem to list the details for changing banks but I found some useful info here: https://support.korguser.net/hc/en-us/community/posts/202943530-How-to-midi-control-iM1-programs- - Teamviewer not working on mac mojave mac. @egdnola said:

Suggestions?Thanks!iM1 is multitimbral, so I would fill up the slots with the different sounds from the song, one in each slot, and each slot has its own midi channel. Then change midi channels on the keystation to change sounds. That setup has the nice side effect of the tail of a sound not getting cut off when you switch to another sound.Then make a separate 'program' or whatever they call it (the preset with a saved group of sounds in the slots), for each song.If you need to layer two sounds, then put them on the same channel, and they will both play. - @Processaurus said:@egdnola said:

MagellanPost-mortem
Worked well enough, though it still feels a bit clunky. I would like to figure out a way to further streamline things.While Animoog responds to PC msgs it has a couple issues that make me think I will ditch it:1) It is not as stable as I would like. For the second time using it now in a show/rehearsal situation, it was non-responsive. I will likely get in the habit of shutting down and restarting all synth apps pre-show.
2) It is locked to a specific DEVICE transmitting AND a specific channel. This means I cannot get it to respond to performance data from the AX7 (over the bluetooth adapter) while simultaneously listening for PC changes from OnSong. This may be an issue going forward.As a related aside, except for Animoog which behaves as above, the synths are getting sent PC info twice: once from the AX7 when I change patches (no way to disable this AFAIK) and once from OnSong. I think I would like to streamline this to reduce any chance for weirdness.I am strongly considering introducing MIDIFlow into the setup and route everything through it. I do wish more apps recognized and responded to PC msgs - @MonzoPro said:

- Your mysterious and still-not-explained-'rotation bug' has not an issue btw.
- @hrestov,Virtual dj 8. 0 exe download. I see you're using iMIDIPatchbay and Galileo. I'm trying to incorporate Galileo into my setup (that already uses iMIDIPatchbay for program changes, splits, etc. with two keyboards and a rack module).I can't get Galileo to respond to MIDI in messages (from iMIDIPatchbay) unless I set it to receive on channel 1. For example, if I set Galileo to receive on channel 4 and iMIDIPatchbay to send on channel 4 (with Galileo assigned to Extern x in iMIDIPatchbay), Galileo does not respond.Also, I can't get Galileo to respond to program changes sent from iMIDIPatchbay, even using channel 1. I'm using MSB=5, LSB=O, Program=5, to try selecting the 'Red Light' preset.If you've been able to accomplish either thing I'm trying to do, please let me know if there's something I'm missing. Thanks!
- Ah, I have sadly ditched iMidiPatchbay as it does not really meet my needs. I am using OnSong song changes to send MIDI program change data now. I also found Galileo a bit unwieldy for live use.I in my live setup I am using OnSong which pushes out PC messages to: iM1, Animoog, and Poison-202. I am soon looking to incorporate SampleTank (for acoustic bass sounds unless someone can make a better suggestion).I also want to add IMonoPoly but there is no info on what the LSB/MSB info should be for that synth even tho t supposedly responds to PC.I was able to reproduce your issue tho. Not sure what is going on there
- Hello, nice forum. My first post here.
I'm using Puc+ as an bluetooth interface with my iphone to use Neo soul keys and others..
Anyone using this interface ? you can check it at amazon, i have some important gigs to me soon and i'm wondering if this is a safe interface to use in live concerts - I use my ipad as my main keyboard rig weekly. I have a few rules though: I only use AU hosted in AUM of course. Ravenscroft, Zeeon, Neosoul keys, isymphonic, ns1 and TONS of effects to shape my sounds. Save BEFORE you disconnect your midi controller, and connect again before opening preset, and all your midi mapping will be saved. Easy, no hassle, stable keyboard rig.
