Record Keyboard On iPad With Audio Cables: Record Your Keyboard Lesson 6

Record Keyboard On iPad With Audio Cables: Record Your Keyboard Lesson 6 Record Keyboard On iPad With Audio Cables: Record Your Keyboard Lesson 6 You can record your keyboard or digital piano directly on your iPad using just a simple audio cable and an adapter, so you can start recording very simply for just a few dollars. In this video I show you step by step which cable and adapter you will need, how to hook them up, then how to make your first audio recording in Garageband. Garageband on the iPad is very simple to use, but there are a few settings you must adjust to make sure you get a good recording. Just proceed with caution and make sure your keyboard is switched off when you connect it to your iPad. Then ensure volume is turned right down before turning it on. You can use the settings in Garageband to gradually adjust the volume upwards to the correct level. I also show you how to toggle from the set up view to the timeline view and back. Once you have learned how to record your first track you can easily build up more tracks in the timeline/track view. You can gradually create a whole finished performance, maybe add vocals and other tracks, once you have mastered the audio connections. You will need to select the correct audio cable to connect from the audio output of your keyboard to an 1/8" stereo mini-jack. My keyboard just has 1/8" mini jack out so I just need a simple cable mini-jack to mini-jack. If your keyboard or digital piano has left and right 1/4" jack outputs then you will need a Y-Cable that has 2 1/4" mono on one end and one 1/8" stereo on the other. You can find a full range of cables here, just select the right one for your keyboard/piano: http://bit.ly/1IgZl0T Then you will need an adapter cable so that you can connect the audio output of your keyboard into the mic/headphone port on your iPad. http://bit.ly/1VXCsJ9 If you want to make a better quality recording then see my future video on recording using an audio interface.
