When is the free update available? I cannot find it. Thanks!
So basically you get a toy for free. If you want to plug your guitar in to GarageBand you have to pay the $4.99 anyway. Really, Apple? What was your point?
Their point is … ‘we’re only in it for the money’.
I had to re-install it to get it even though it was already installed. When I went into the app store it was marked as “Free” instead of “Installed” which is what clued me in.
Can anybody tell me if you can record 2 tracks simultaneously with garage band in the iPad and if so what other equipment is required. I need to be able to play and record keyboards and vocals at the same time rather than laying down keys first then vocals. Is this possible on the iPad?
