GarageBand for iOS is a great app for creating music, but what if you have a project in mind that requires specific sound effects? Unlike the Mac app, GarageBand for iOS has a limited range of built-in sounds, so this tutorial shows you how to grab what you need from free-to-download websites like freesound.org.

Download

First you will you need an app that lets you download assets (like audio files) from websites. There are plenty that do this as downloading stuff is a popular activity! One that I have stumbled across recently that makes this fairly easy is iDownloads Pro as it has a built-in browser and file manager, and it’s only $0.99!

In the browser of iDownloads, navigate to freesound.org, or your website of choice for downloading free-to-use audio files, and make sure you read the licence agreements carefully—no stealing please!

Freesound.org requires you to be logged in, but once you find a sound you want, tap the ‘Download’ button. Choose ‘Download’ from the pop-up menu.

As with all apps of this type the file will download into the File Manager of the app itself—if you have already created sub-folders this will make organization easier.

Locate your file in the File Manager section and tap the blue arrow next to its name.

/djay-2-phone-2-deck-mode.html. Tap the ‘Open with’ button which will make the ‘Open in..’ dialog appear (yes I know, why isn’t the ‘Open with’ button labelled ‘Open in..’?) Currently GarageBand is lagging behind other audio apps like BossJock and Audio Mastering for iPad which directly support the ‘Open in..’ protocol (strange as Apple develop both iOS and GarageBand!) so you will need to choose an audio editor app like TwistedWave or Hokusai (with Tools pack) as an intermediate step. So ‘Open in..’ one of these apps.

Edit, Copy, Paste

In the audio editor app carry out any editing that is required.

Copy the audio file to the AudioCopy clipboard—this will enable you to paste it into GarageBand.

In GarageBand, create an audio track. This means choosing one of the two instruments that support audio files, the ‘Audio Recorder’ track or the Guitar Amp’ track. If you are starting a project from scratch you will need to ‘record’ something so a project is created and you can see the instrument as a track—then delete what you recorded.

In Tracks view tap on the track background—a pop-up menu with the ‘Paste’ option will appear.

Paste the audio file from the AudioCopy clipboard into your project. GarageBand doesn’t have an audio file manager either (like Logic Pro’s Bin) so to use the sound effect in other projects you will need to copy and paste it from one to the other. It’s probably worth creating a project just for keeping sound effects in for this very reason!

What is Audiobus? — Audiobus isan award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you useyour other music apps together. Chain effects on your favouritesynth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app likeGarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface outputfor each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive asynth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDIkeyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear.And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.

Audiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

Hi to all,

I am new to Garageband and Audiobus. I have an Ipad mini 2, and a iTrack Solo. I have recorded a song with dry vocals, and now I would like to edit the vocals adding some effects (like Helicon FX voice rack effect) to the vocals using audiobus.

I select GB as an ouptut and Helicon FX as an effect, then I choose an effect, but it does not modify the sound of the vocal track (it is still dry).

Garageband For Ipad App

Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to select an input app (in case, yes, which App is good? I do not own any yet).

I have seen some tutorials recording vocals with effects into garageband, buy what I would like is to record them dry and then later add the effects.

Is it possible with an ipad?

How To Use Garageband Ipad

• edited May 2015

  That is possible, only not with Garageband, cause you can put GB only in the output slot. An idea is to open the vocal track in an app you can put in the input slot in Audiobus, and than put your effects in the effect slot, and record the output back in GarageBand. /mac-garageband-for-windows.html. What app in input slot? I think AudioShare is a good suggestion. A detail: when you record it back into GarageBand, I would lenghten the track in GB beforehand, cause you need to move the vocal track manually after you recorded it (to get it in sync with the rest of the instruments). About exporting the vocal track to for instance Multitrack Daw: I would use the aif format in GB. Cause that is the best track quality. About listening to vocals with effects (and tweaking the effects) at the same time as you hear the instruments (vocals tweaking in sync with the instruments which are not affected by the effects), I cannot think of a solution for that now, but there might be. Also unknown If that is something you want to do.

  Edit : missing element in your question is: is it vocals only, or vocals with instruments?
