Why do all Mac Garageband software instruments turn into pianos on the iPad iPhone iPod Touch

I've created a new video:


I start the video by showing that the Mac Garageband standard software instruments are not compatible with the instruments on the iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch running IOS Garageband,

Having shown the issue the video goes on to show how the new fixed1t custom Software Instruments allow a high level of compatibility as I create a Bach Concerto in Mac Garageband using strings and port it successfully to the iPad.

I finish the video with a midi version of Black Magic Woman I created in Mac Garageband and converted, this which shows that the fixed1t software instruments contain:

Guitars
Keyboards
Basses
Strings
Drums
Organ

I hope you like the video, it really shows the flexibility and speed of using the converter, along with the fixed1t Mac Garageband Software Instruments are a great combination.  You wouldn't want to be doing it manually.  Would You? ;-)

Using Garageband Archived Samples on a Roland MC-808 Groovebox Sampler

Hi.

I've created a new video to demonstrate how the samples in my Garageband song created collaboratively using sample loops of Sweet Home Alabama on a mac and an ipad Garageband can be easily converted into a series of Roland MC-808 compatible sample loops and transferred quickly onto the MC-808.

1. The song is put together collaboratively using Garageband on the Mac and iPad



2. The samples are then extracted from the song using the fixed1t Garageband Archive audio sample extractor


The samples are then reviewed to check their type using the fixed1t audio samples data lister



The Samples are then converted into WAV, little endian files and renamed in line with the MC-808 fast sample loading convention, using the fixed1t Garageband to MC-808 sample convertor.

The video then shows you have to get the samples quickly onto the MC-808 and play them.

To obtain trial version of the software used in this video go to the fixed1t software page at:

Please rate the video and leave comments.
