Anyone knowledgeable on creating simple iPad backing tracks
I lead worship in a small church. Just me and an acoustic guitar. I’d like to spice it up by adding some drum, bass and strings via backing tracks. Has anyone here gone through this process and can you give me some info on how to create them and then play to them at church? How do I get them to run through the mixing board? Thanks in advance for any input you can give.
Tom

Hi there, my friend!
I don't know exactly how to use tracks, but I do know how to playback them if you have them in your iPad. I use to load the tracks (I have two or three that a friend of mine sent me) in an app called Onsong. It's a nice iPad app to read chords, etc. With that, I just use an aux cable out from the iPad phone output jack, and send it to the Mixer input, just as I was plugging an acoustic guitar on it. It playback when you adjust the gain (beware with clipping, etc) and volume to taste. I hope this helps!

The music memos app on your iPad will actually create bass and drum parts based on what you play on the guitar.
My results were kind of lame, but I just tried it as a novelty. Seems like it could be workable with some practice.

There is an app named iRealPro which has a companion app for the mac which allows you to create/plug-in chord progressions, tempos, time signatures etc and add digital instruments to cover the backgrounds. And it can play them back. You can create tracks on just the iPad, but it's so much quicker & easier on the Mac. There is a learning curve, and if it's still there a forum to speed you on your way and answer question and give you thousands of songs. You can also buy professional digital tracks already instrumented & recorded for church worship teams. Hope this helps. |
