    Default Can you record with and Ipad?

    I tried searching this and could`t find anything. I`d like to use my Ipad to record me playing. Has anyone found an app to do this? Something like Audacity is what I`m looking for. Thanks.

    Well, I bought Garage Band for it and it works ok, I guess. Unfortunately there isn't a way, or I haven't figured out how anyways, to plug directly into the Ipad - like for a mic port. I was hoping the headphone port could be used as a mic jack by messing with the 'settings', but it doesn't appear that you can. So, you have to play everything out in the open, which doesn't work too well. Drums drown out the music too much.

    So, I'm back to square one unless some of you techies have another idea.

    Doesn't Blue make a microphone that plugs specifically into an iTouch/iPhone or iPad? I know there was a version discrepancy for a while - the version of the mic wasn't compatible with the newer versions of the Apple devices, but I would tend to think that would be fixed by now.

    get a usb mic, and call it done
    if you ask a drummer what time it is?!? they're likely to respond with a time signature "oh, it's 4/4"....

    Speaking of USB microphones - I have a Samson USB condenser microphone that rocks.
    I have the Go Mic, but the G-Track looks pretty sweet.
    My Go Mic on amazon was only $39. The Go-Track is upwards of $179.

    Mackie are about to release something special for ipad ...16 inputs and 6 aux sends ...looks like a step in the right direction ..just the usual digital issues ..no harmonic distortion etc

    its a good idea ..but we will have to wait see if it works well in the real world
