If I want to Play keyboard app on iPad , do I get camera kit and select midi in GarageBand?
What I'm trying to do,is use a moog for example in GarageBand.
Please advise

Cheers

Gosh, looks like most of you are stumped too.)

I really don't understand the question...... If you want to play a keys App.... why do you want a Camera kit? Are you going to take a picture of yourself playing?

Sorry for confusion. Apparently , to plug a USB into an iPad , you need to buy an apple camera kit.
Anyway, what I'm trying to do is find a way of using cool synths effects that I've downloaded, and
Use them simultaneously with GarageBand (or similar app)

Can't you just write the Midi data in to trigger the sound/patch ? [until you get the Keyboard sorted]

Sorry Garry. I don't know how.Thanks for help tho'.
I do like the simple format of GarageBand,,where the drums are there plug my bass in etc.
But what i want to do is play one of the apps (ie moog) with it .
Maybe I have to record synth app seperate and drag saved file to GarageBand if it takes it.

Try some Youtube videos for "editing Midi" in Garageband, or Google.
I am not a Garage band user so cant be much help really.
But in all the Major DAWS you can just write in MIDI data to trigger samples & patches, and its really very very easy.
This would solve your problem until you get your USB sorted out.
Infact you will be triggering stuff in minutes.

I've had a strange unorthodox idea, which I tried briefly tonight.
I hooked up my iPad into my mac mini, via my line6 ux1 . I plugged the iPad into the line in sockets of the ux1 .
I then played the kaossilator app on my iPad , and recorded some noises on GarageBand on my mac mini.

Everything seemed to work ,)
