The MIDI cable plug contains five metal pins set in a semi-circle that connect to the five holes in the MIDI port on an instrument. The MIDI cable can be linked with an adapter to connect a keyboard to work with GarageBand, an audio software program designed for Apple Mac computers. The adapter includes a USB plug to connect with a Mac. GarageBand is a comprehensive digital audio workstation (DAW) application that ships with all versions of Apple's Mac OS X operating system. It can record and edit audio and MIDI data in a variety of ways, while being more user-friendly than professional DAW environments; such as Apple's Logic or Avid's Pro Tools.

There are also MIDI connectors such as the iRig MIDI, which hook up MIDI keyboards, drum machines, drum pads, pedal boards and more to an iOS device. Connect your guitar to your iOS device (we’re using an iRig), get your headphones on and turn up the volume on your headphones and guitar. Open GarageBand.
This is something that is very easy to do on my macbook using either garageband or logic express. However, I am not sure how to do it on the ipad or if it is even possible. It should be similar to the method of connecting an electric guitar. Most people use iRig for a guitar, but there is not a comparable product to connect a keyboard. I'm assuming the only way to do it is by connecting the midi to a usb interface and then connecting the usb interface to the camera connection kit. However, I don't even know if the iPad recognizes an external midi controller like a macbook does.
Has anyone had any success with this maneuver? Thanks!

Audio files to an existing Audio Recorder or Amp track

When you import an audio file, it’s converted to a 44.1 kHz sample rate, 16-bit depth format if the original format is different. Imported audio files don’t follow tempo changes you make in GarageBand.
When you import a multitrack MIDI file, GarageBand creates a new Keyboard track for each track in the MIDI file. The total number of resulting tracks cannot exceed 32 tracks. You cannot add multitrack MIDI files to cells in Live Loops.
