GarageBand woes.

Hi guys. 
I'm doing some remote recording for the new album, and I’m having an issue with gb on a new 2020 128gb iPad 
 

I’m getting the sounds in ok via an irig hd, but the issue is more that I want to be able to visually reference the track I’m playing to, rather than looking at the ‘amp’ screen. 
is there a button/ setting I can change to leave it on the multitrack page whilst I record?

thank you chaps and chapesses 👍👍

sounds like you have the amps popup page on very large and its obscuring your tracks page

Try opening a new project and see if it reverts to normal tracks layout

It’s the same each time. 
I have the tracks page open, press record and it switches to the amp page. 
🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

looks like you have to arm 2 tracks at a time, even if you're recording only one, don't think irig can do that, time to upgrade to a 2 in/out audio interface like I just did!

Ok. 
after some research with friends that record stuff for a living lol I went with the Scarlett 2i2 gen 3 for an interface. 
it arrived today, I’ve got it working as far as the interface, and the input on the iPad is showing as input 1 & 2, but I’m not getting the little jack plug icon lighting up, or any sound 🤷‍♂️
pleeease help? Lol
