Old man here who has just bought the irig2 to go into garage band.Excellent beginner tutorial for fossils and one of the best explained.I will plod on from here.Thank you
Love it! Glad you can get creating my friend. Reach out if you need any assistance along the way. 👍
Thank you Pete. Will do
I picked one of these up for simplicities sake so I could plug in guitar, bass, condenser & dynamic mics plus midi. Not bad at all. Makes things easier and less fussy.
Now, I thought it was broken as no lights came on. I even changed the batteries. Until I watched your video. Now I see it has to be plugged in to the iPad. My batteries were fine and not even needed at that moment.
Thanks for this old vid, Pete.
Hey Geno! Good to hear from you my friend. And glad this helped out.
@@PeteJohnsMusic since you changed times on some of the shows I've been having a problem watching live due to work and life. I try to catch question and answer type shows tho.
Keep up the good work my Australian friend.
Thank you Pete, when it comes to Garage band and IPad you’re the best. Just bought my iPad Pro and didn’t know how connect my guitar , (I thought it was like I did before) plug-in to the head phones with the Irig. Then I started to watch a lot of people on the net , connecting their iPads to interfaces and a lot of cables. I thought, no way , I’m giving back my pro, and then your video comes along. So easy to follow for dummy’s like me hehehe. You made my day. Love & Peace
Awesome to hear my friend. Thanks so much for your kind words and taking the time to provide feedback. Glad it was able to help.
I’m going to have to make a purchase! Thanks!🤘
It's definitely a very cool and high quality interface! amzn.to/2YcloUO
Looks ideal. Might have to get one.
Thanks for the video.
You’re welcome my friend. There are a few other videos on the channel if you want to find out more. th-cam.com/video/KL7dlCqYxic/w-d-xo.html
It’s definitely a great solution if you want an all-in-one device that doesn’t require and additional gear to use.
Mate, this is amazing. Great film well done. I’m actually watching cause I bought the irig pro duo (released Jan 2020) but more or less the same thing and this film is the bomb compared to the others for instruction. Brilliant
Cheers my friend. The Duo is a very nice piece of kit for sure. Appreciate your kind words and support.
@@PeteJohnsMusic oh dude, I’m well into all your posts. My band is in Italy but now I’m living in the states and I’ve got to figure out how to do all this stuff by myself so I can keep making music from distance with my buddies. You are top of the pops
I would like to point out, That the IRig pro I/O will only direct monitor through the apps it's designed to work with. However it will direct monitor on any apps with pre-recorded content. In other words it will direct monitor during play back. Also the IRig pre 2 will direct monitor in any circumstance. The con the pre 2 is having only one power source, batteries that is
Nice one! Thanks for the additional info.
Thank You, I used this on my new IrigHD and can put in my tracks now....
Nice one! 👍
I like it. My biggest problem isn't the interface but rather the fact that I can't actually play lead guitar.
Haha! You and me both buddy. There’s a reason why all my “solos” have sounded the same for the past 25 years. 😄
Hi Pete, this mirrors my experience with the iRig HD2 - good quality digital signal and very easy to use. (All it needs is a good guitar player, in my case🤔🙄)
Two quick comments/questions -
1) Setting the gain - the instructions on my devices recommend setting the gain so that you get the bulk of the input (and certainly the louder parts) with the orange indicator light. No red, of course! Are your instructions different?
2) The iRig HD2 has a 1/4 output socket so that, as well as sending signal out to the iPad via a lightning cable, you can send output to an amp or PA system for monitoring or to use when performing. This is in addition to the headphone output socket. Does your I/O device have such an output option or do you only have the headphone option?
Cheers mate!😁🎸🤘
Hey mate. Good to hear from you as always.
1. Yes, I jumped the gun a little on the guitar recording and didn’t actually, er, read the manual per se? I thought I had read that you should keep it in the green but I have so many interfaces these days I may be getting things confused! So I may need to revisit and up the gain a little on future recordings.
2. Nope, no pass through on this one. Makes it less useful for live playing and reinforces that it is very much a recording interface. I might mention this in a future video.
Thanks for your input and questions as always.
👍
Precise explanations. It's a pleasure.
👍🙏🤘
Thanks
You’re very welcome my friend. I hope you get value from the other videos here on the channel and consider subscribing. 👍
Great demo Pete, looks really simple and sounds great. Thanks for the info and demo.cheers. andy.
Cheers Andy. Appreciate your support my friend.
A great video as usual, Pete! Thanks for the review/demo and also answering people’s questions. Cheers!
Very welcome my friend. Appreciate your support! 👍
Thank you, Pete!
You’re very welcome my friend. I hope you get value from the other videos here on the channel and consider subscribing. 👍
By you leaving the noise gate on makes a big difference for output sound.
I tend to not use noise gates unless absolutely necessary. And if o do I use the Nembrini one - th-cam.com/video/mCxrYzkRKw4/w-d-xo.html
You sound like Stewie griffins older cousin or something haha I love your vids man you’ve taught me so much!!
Whew! That’s a long bow to draw right there. My Australian accent sounds like a fake British accent of a cartoon baby? Okay, I’ll take your word for it. 😀
I only have android app for my tablet and my phone so that I can sing with the piano and write a music notebook from Ez Voice because I love singing.
Nice one. Sorry that I don’t have any experience with Android specifically.
I use headset with microphone from Ez Voice.
Great review
Cheers. I hope you get value from the other videos on the channel and consider subscribing if you haven’t already. 👍
Nice. See , this viddy sold me the iRig pro
It's a really useful piece of kit. I still use my iRig Pro Duo to this day.
Ah, and great videos by the way! Keep up the good work!!
Cheers Guido. Appreciate it my friend.
Great video! Thanks for your help!
You’re very welcome my friend. I hope you get value from the other videos here on the channel and consider subscribing. 👍
Pete Johns subbed immediately after the video! You’re doing great things!
So sick haha
🤘😎
Yo love that big star shirt! Also great vid!
Haha! Cheers and cheers!
Thanks for the review. Just purchased one of these recently to get back into recording my own music again after so long. Used to own a ZoomR16 digital multitrack recorder but this time I wanted to utilize my iPad to record instead of rebuying another piece of pricey equipment. I was curious if an electric guitar>iRig>iPad was feasible and you totally summed it all up for me within this very helpful video. Thank you so much!!
Awesome Ruben! Very glad that it helped my friend. It’s a wonderful time to be recording with the simple, low cost, high quality gear we have available. 👍
Pete, when you talk about using irig products on the iPad, make sure that you specify if it’s apple or Samsung iPad, becoz irig products for guitar has a ligh port on Samsung and USB c on iPad Pro apple! Not the same ports size
Hey there. Sorry, I’ve never used a device with an Android device and don’t mention any possible compatibility or incompatibility because I generally don’t know.
Hey bro, look! It is clear that everything he said were all perfectly specified. First of, once you say iPad it’s automatically an APPLE brand and Android Galaxy is Samsung. I worked in Samsung and I’d never found any Samsung iPad there except those koreans loves Apple iPad. Review Gadgets bro. No offense.
Gii Sensei bro, you should go see at Walmart the Samsung iPads... no offence !
BIG STAR PETE YOU HAVE GREAT TASTE
Haha! Cool isn’t it? I couldn’t find one here in Australia so had to get one printed!
When I record on band lab my chrome book sometimes it sound good and sometimes bad but on my iPhone it sounds better
Nice one! Use what works for you best I say.
@@PeteJohnsMusic oh and do u know where I can buy the iPhone cable ?
Hey, you make amazing videos. Everything I’m searching comes up with your videos! Quick question, I have an iPhone XR and am looking to make recordings in GarageBand (electric, acoustic, vocals and maybe my Akai MPK). Will this product do it all? The only thing I don’t have is a microphone. Could I just pick up a SM57 or do you have another recommendation as a versatile mic. Thanks!
Yup. This will do well for everything you need. If you’re after one mic, I’d go a condenser like this one. th-cam.com/video/9ikwgGT03BY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=v0LDXyOcxo1f1GM6

Hi, I’ve been a piano player for a while and literally decided today to start learning guitar. This is probably the dumbest question on this comments section, but this device does let you connect to both phone AND amplifier right? I thought it does and see no reason for it not to.
I want to learn lessons through apps like simply guitar but live in university dorms, and would rather not disturb my flatmates in the other rooms around me lol. So I thought this would allow my phone to fully take in the audio from my guitar directly, without me having to play it out loud for everyone else to listen. And of course for the amp to make my guitar play the actual music. Thanks in advance.
Hey there. So yes, it has a headphone output which you can send to headphones or indeed monitor speakers or an amp. 👍
@@PeteJohnsMusic right thanks, and if I’m using an app on my phone to learn that requires it to hear me playing the guitar, this would work? It would pick up the guitars’s notes through the cable whilst the guitar is also connected to the amp at the same time?
You could do it that way or go in to the amp and send the signal out to the iRig. There is also the iRig HD2 which has a guitar throughout connection.
@@PeteJohnsMusic right thank you so much ☺️
I want to buy one of these for my 11 year old son's Christmas present. (1) iRig Pro I/O with iRig PSU 3A (to charge the ipad while using) (2) iRig Pro Duo I/O
with microphone (Can Garageband input both guitar and audio? ) (3) Apogee Jam+ (F) The advantage of the iRig Pro I/O is you can charge the Ipad Pro at the same time, while the advantage of the Jam+ is to play silently in your room (allowing you to play more often). iRig Pro Duo I/O is you can also combine with a mic, but will both inputs work in Garageband? Keep in mind, his Ipad Pro 9.7 has both Lightning connector and headphone jack. Not sure if he can use headphones in the headphone jack (or Bluetooth headphones) while using Lightning connector (Question) If you were to buy one today for an 11 year old, which one and why?
Hey there! Thanks for the question and sorry for the late reply. Personally I think the iRig devices work best. The Duo would be my go-to if it is within budget because it can indeed record both microphone and guitar simultaneously. It also comes with Lightning but also USB and USB-C, so if your son updates his iPad in the future, it will still be compatible. And you can use it with a powered USB hub if you want to hook up MIDI keyboards, drives, mouse, keyboard etc in the future too, like this - th-cam.com/video/Vomprgxr0ac/w-d-xo.html

Great tone man! I just started playing six months ago and joined a 3-piece 90’s punk/Grunge jam band. It’s awesome to play live with a good bassist and a kick a** drummer! I’m definitely the weak link but I’m practicing. I have a THR10II and just bought a MacBook Air M2 refurbished. I just want to use it to record and lay some tracks down. I have the cable I think I can plug my Yamaha THR10II into my MacBook and use it as a DAW. That would be awesome… just a lot of technical stuff to learn along with playing the guitar. I usually just use my iPhone (voice memo app) to record my guitar. Any advice on how I could record my whole guitar practice (helps me pick out to my mistakes and clean up my playing) on the MacBook Air without hitting record everytime on GarageBand?
Hey there! So, I really like the audio record on AudioShare which might be an option to explore. th-cam.com/video/FjEZMS8QUuQ/w-d-xo.html
I use GarageBand for iPhone for all my music now. I made a music video with electric guitar using only free apps for iPhone/iPad. Check it out, drop a like if you dig it!
Great to hear. GarageBand is definitely an awesome way to record. 👍
Will this work using the regular video recording for iPhone in case I wanted to record myself playing in good quality ? If not, what would be your best recommendation
Yup. You’ll get good quality audio for the camera app.
Im trying to sing with a sm58 and an almost ready to give up
This is like my 10th video all just to use GBand with irig for vacals
I want to record my guitar cabinet via mic. Wondering if this would work
Yup. Will record anything you point your mic at. studiolivetoday.com/gear
Hi Pete. Is it possible to plug a 12 pedals pedalboard on the Irig device? And is it possible to plug a Friedman dirty Shirley head direct into the Irig (by using the 1/4 jack mono cable that usually go to the AMP 1x12 cabinet)? Thank a lot for your answer! Nathanaël
Hey there. So, short answer is yes. Any analog signal will be supported, just be careful with gain and volume going in as it’s easy to overload.
I know I’m like 3 years late but I have everything plugged in the way you do but I have a blinking blue light on the bottom light and no sound coming into my headphones. I have monitoring on, I’ve replaced the batteries but I can’t get anything out of it.
Not sure what's happening there sorry? Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord.
Hi, is there any way I can use the Rig Pro for live performances? Or is it a device used primarily for recording?
I would check out the iRig Stream Pro for streaming. This is definitely more focused on recording.
It's ok to have a little orange. How ever would have been better if it was colored blue, orange, green then red . Because orange is right before the clipping. And it's hard for me to tell . Because the orange and red on the thing mesh together in such a way it's hard to tell them apart some times
Yeah. I guess with digital it’s better to be lower than higher when it comes to gain.
This helped me so much. Thank you!!!
You’re very welcome my friend. I hope you get value from the other videos here on the channel and consider subscribing. 👍
Pete please tell me the best AMP setting for a 10 dollar irig to have clean voice with acoustic guitar..the output lwvwls and master levels too
It really depends on too many factors such as the type of guitar, type of music etc. It all really comes down to trial and error.
@@PeteJohnsMusic OK But still😓 i havea acoustic guitar having equalizer in it..Does the battery life also..makes an impact?/ Please sugges tthe best setting according to you..for acoustic guitar ..
Will this also plug into my iMac vs my iPad?
Yup. All the recent models have USB, USB-C and Lightning so work with everything. studiolivetoday.com/gear
Hey Pete love your channel, been subbed for a while. I'm eyeing the iRig pro Duo I/O which I believe is just like the regular Pro I/O you reviewed with an extra XLR input. Anyway, my main concern as someone with an old 2nd gen iPad Pro is that jamming for too long (say two or three hours), might drain my battery. How long can you play on yours before needing to recharge and did you ever get the external PSU that can be hooked up to the iRig to keep the iPad from dying?. Heard it needs to be some specific kind of power supply, any idea on this?. Thanks in advance and sorry for the long ass comment.
EDIT: oops and yet another question, how do you think the recording quality of the iRig pro compares to the focusrite 2i2 from your other video?. Would you say the iRig pro is a fine alternative for people on a tight budget who can't afford two audio interfaces for their PC and their iPad?, or should I just go for a Focusrite with the Apple camera kit adapter and just use that on both my PC and iPad?.
Great questions all round. So if you want something simple and universal I’ve been really impressed with the iRig Pro I/O and you’re right that the duo is the same but with two channels.
If I had to choose, I’d go with a setup that has a two channel interface, adapter and powered hub as I show in this video / th-cam.com/video/Sc-_LiuqiRA/w-d-xo.html
But the difference is pretty small in overall quality and the iRig Pro Duo is definitely more convenient.
Battery life? I’ve got 2-3 hours on my old iPad Air 2, and more like 3-4 on my iPad Pro 2020. You can use the genuine adapter or a generic 3rd party power adapter as long as it has the right voltage specs.
@@PeteJohnsMusic Fair enough, either one should be alright quality-wise then. And yeah I've watched your powered hub video, that thing is a life saver for iPad owners. Thanks for the quick reply by the way, and keep it up. You're doing the Lord's work here for undecided buyers like myself.
@@myoriginalname I have iRig Pro Duo and to be honest it isn’t as convenient as iRig Pro I/O. Of course You have the ability of using two inputs but this device has to be either powered by external supply (minimum 500mA) or by batteries. It doesn’t work by just plugging into USB device. Using iRig Pro I/O You can use one power supply to power the device which automaticly powers and charges Your iPhone or iPad. No such thing in Pro Duo. Do it’s up to You if You’re ready to sacrifice mobility just to have two imputs but to have it You don’t need iRig You can choose one of many cheaper external soundcards. So You’re not limited to iRig.
@@tomaszgrzesik3916 Oh cool, thanks for the heads-up!. Btw, do batteries on the DUO run out quickly?. I wouldn't mind changing them every month or so, but if they only last for a few days then that would be a problem I guess.
Hi brother. I bought one and used your video to set mine up about a year ago. It was awesome. Iam using a new PC now and Iam having problems with a lot of extra sound like cracking and popping that I didn't have before. Any ideas?
Hmmmm.... haven't come across anything like that personally? These sort of issues can often be power related though, so maybe trying a powered USB hub might be an option to consider? studiolivetoday.com/usb
Will we not be able to hear the guitar through the iPad with a Bluetooth connected speaker? I was hoping to use GarageBand like an amp and jam without headphones.
Unfortunately not. You’ll need to plug a wired speaker in to the headphone jack.
There’d be some bad latency if you could
Nice.
🙏
Hi Pete. What's the brand and model of your guitar?
Hey there my friend. It’s the Taylor 110e. Amazing guitar for the price! You can find a link to it and all my gear here. studiolivetoday.com/gear
If you dont want to use headphones can you use the sound from the ipad or if you have a laptop, or the sound is gonna be bad?
It can be done, but unfortunately you'll get quite a lot of "bleed" - th-cam.com/video/EcI1tPC4P34/w-d-xo.html
Was the output to lightning cable supposed to be in the box for the product? Just recently purchased one for myself and it only has the USB 2.0 output cable.
Yes; the iRig Pro I/O should have USB and Lightning. If not you might need to contact the seller.
do you need to have a good ipad or it doesnt matter which one you use?
You don't need the latest and greatest, but something from the last 5 years is probably best. My iPad guide here might help - studiolivetoday.com/ipad
So I bought an iRig and it works fine and sounds good. Problem is I've noticed a few issues when I do things like muted strums, palm muted strums, and harmonics. As far as the first two are concerned (and this goes for bringing my hand down to stop the strings from rining), there's a distinctive "chhh" kind of sound when I play muted strums and palm mute, which makes it basically impossible to record anything because that sound will be there and it sounds sloppy. I think it might be outside input noise but I don't know how to get rid of that, because the in-app mechanics in GarageBand don't seem to work. Any suggestions?
Hmmmm…. Interesting one? Haven’t come across that personally. Maybe send me some more details and a sample? pete@studiolivetoday.com
@@PeteJohnsMusic Will do. I’ll send it over by tomorrow. Thanks man!
Pete, your iPad, is it iPad Pro 3rd generation 2019? With only ONE port for headphones or to be charged?
Hey there. My iPad is just the iPad Air 2 actually. So it has a lightning and a headphone jack.
Hi . Im Behzad From sweden.
I play keyboard 🎹 . I wanna best quality record video by one of irig family .which one better for me ?? Irig I/O PRO --- irig2 Hd... Thanks
If you want to capture the actual audio of your keyboard, the iRig Pro I/O or Duo would be best. Duo if you want to capture stereo. studiolivetoday.com/gear
Thanks for the video. I'm not really clear, are you using ipad speakers (can you) or external speakers?
You’ll need headphones or external speakers to plug in to for playback.
How did you download garageband? Wen I try it tells me that I need ios 15, but I have ios 13 on my iPad Pro 12.9-inch. And by the way grate video.
The latest version does need iOS 15 of you don’t already have a version installed. Might need to update.
Hi Pete,
one question about using the interface with my keyboard (it's a NORD).
When I I connect it with Garageband using the irig pro I/O using MIDI and start recording a track using one of the NORD sound, will I see single notes that I could edit or just the envelope?
And will I hear the NORD sound at all?
Although it might sound a bit confusing, I still hope you can help.
All the best, Guido
Hey Guido. It really depends on the keyboard itself. I’m assuming your Nord has its own sounds and a speaker? In that case you will hear those sounds when okaying and capturing MIDI. A stand-alone MIDI controller has no sounds so will only trigger the GarageBand sounds. When I’m using a keyboard with its own sounds I tend to down the volume right down so it doesn’t distract me and then monitor the sound using the iPad/iPhone. Take a look at the video to see what I mean. th-cam.com/video/LdVAG_LwjBw/w-d-xo.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks for the quick response! But that's not I was aiming at.
Let me explain. Let's say you've got a proper synthesizer with its own sounds on it and you would like one of these sounds from this synthesizers to be recorded on a track in Garageband. Is that possible using the irig pro I/O or can I solely use the pre-installed sounds in Garageband?
Thanks very much in advance!
Gotcha! Yes, you can simply connect the analog output from the synth in to the instrument jack on the iRig. I show this method with similar devices in this video - th-cam.com/video/KxNC6MZ_rvo/w-d-xo.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic That was exactly what I was aiming at! Thank you so much for your help!! Al the best, Guido
Wow this is so nice. Can i use this thing for live performance directly to a mixer?
Yes, if you send the 3.5mm headphone output to a stereo channel you can.
@@PeteJohnsMusic awesome. Thanks Pete.
Both my ipad and iphone both tell me they cannot power this irig when I plug it in. Any ideas why?
That’s really odd?! You are sure it’s a genuine iRig? studiolivetoday.com/gear
Could I put real guitar pedals in front of the irig?
BTW great video super helpful
Yup. This video should help. th-cam.com/video/NGASmnMj9-U/w-d-xo.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic thank you
Why can’t I play through the iPads speakers, and not have to use headphones?
For guitar you’ll be fine. Microphone? Not so much obviously due to mic bleed.
th-cam.com/video/EcI1tPC4P34/w-d-xo.html&feature=shares
I just want to to know which one is better hd2 or the hd pro?
The HD2 is the newer one - HDC newest. They’re all pretty solid though. studiolivetoday.com/gear
Where is the audio coming from? is it coming from the iPad?
The headphone jack on the iRig. studiolivetoday.com/gear
I don't understand why there are virtually not interfaces like this that have decent reviews. Almost all of them average 3-3.5 stars. Sometime 4, but rarely. Drives me nuts. This one is 3-stars right now at Amazon. Oh well.
I think a lot comes down to people’s expectations. Often if you read the 1 and 2 star reviews you find that the user sometimes didn’t but the right interface for their needs, or they are trying to do something that is not supported. Especially with audio devices, there are so many variables around what hardware is being plugged in to to me that they won’t always work perfectly with every combination of microphone and computer/device
But yes, I too am surprised by the variance in reviews and experience.
Thx for Your video. I am using iRig HD 2 at the moment together with AmpliTube on my iPad Air 2nd. gen. Now I was wondering if I would benefit from changing to iRig Pro. Speaking of sound and connection options. The only thing I found out so far is that iRig HD 2 dos not need batteries, but iRig Pro does. And iRig Pro is more expensive. And somehow I think I have some latency issues with my IíRig HD 2.
Hey there. I’m not sure that the iRig Pro I/O would be a significant upgrade from the HD as far an audio quality goes.
Nice demo! How did you get your sound? I thought you were supposed to use headphones but you had sound in the room.
Hey there. Yeah, I sent the audio out to my mixer and recorded it so viewers could hear what I was hearing.
Thank you for letting me know! Cheers!
👍🙏🤘
Do you know if the iRig Pro would work if connected via usb-c adaptor? So basically if I bought a usb-c to lightening adaptor, would this work? Apple can’t seem to give me an answer, but the ipad I have has a usb c connection and nothing else…!
Yes. I use this setup currently and have tried a bunch of different USB to USB-C adapters and all have worked. Hey he only thing to consider it that it will drain your iPad battery pretty fast. A powered USB hub can help with that. th-cam.com/video/iUJAVGHXnMs/w-d-xo.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic thank you so much for your reply - it’s so useful! 👍🏼
How does the garage band sims compare to those in boss me 80 or zoom 3n?
I personally think the GarageBand amp sims are pretty darn cool! th-cam.com/video/vbdxE-mEDCM/w-d-xo.html&feature=shares
Hi - any word on the quality of the signal for recording vocals using the XLR input? Thanks, love your vids
Hey there. Yes, I realised o never returned to show this in a video! The mic preamp is great. Nice and clear with low noise. Here’s a song where all vocals were recorded using this - th-cam.com/video/s7SIqiPgatA/w-d-xo.html
Question,
I use IRIg Pro..
My instrument is saxophone and
I want to record with backing tracks
When I use it
I put my headphones ...
The mic doesn't work..
So how will I figure it out?
I want my mic to pick up my sound
Not the headphones
That's my problem
Hey there. I’m not quite sure what you’re asking sorry? Maybe ask over at the Create Record Release Facebook group at createrecordreleaae.com, or the Discord group here - studiolivetoday.com/discord.

Hi Tom,
Great video. I would love to do this with my keyboard, is it possible to connect speakers instead of headphones for the output audio?
Thanks!
Hey there. Yes, any speakers or audio output device which supports a 3.5mm stereo input will work.
Thanks for the video Pete. One question, with the iRig Pro I/O connected to the iPad, can we hear both the guitar and a backing track from the iPad through AirPods?
Hey there. Not through Airpods. You’d need to use wired headphones in to the actual headphone jack of the iRig.
Thanks Pete!
how about bluetooth earphones?
Does anyone know how to do this with a Roland drum kit? I still can’t find a good tutorial.
Using a Roland drum kit with GarageBand? I have a tutorial on this coming soon (with my Alesis kit but same sort of thing).
Pete Johns thx for the reply, I got the Irig I/o for Christmas and will try to get it setup tonight.
Ah cool! Yeah, if you’re going out the analog you can use a setup like this - th-cam.com/video/WgDTlVSCawk/w-d-xo.html
Hi Pete, Does the iRig Pro I/O work with iPad Pro 2020 model 12.9 inch?
Sure does. It comes with USB, USB-C and Lightning connectors. Super compatible. studiolivetoday.com/gear
@@PeteJohnsMusic Hi Pete, ok only ask as iPad Pro usb c port is 3.1 connectivity so are you saying the audio interface definitely works with this iPad Pro then?
Have you tried connecting a speaker and using tonebridge with the Irig?
Not specifically, but I have used other amp sims and played through speakers.
Does this irig charge your phone while its hook up
Not unless you’re using the power adapter or a powered USB hub. studiolivetoday.com/usb
Does the sound from your guitar comes from the ipad or an amp? Little confused here 🧐
The guitar amp sim turns the raw guitar sound in to the analogies sound which is then played back through the headphone jack on the iRig.
Pete, what is the size of the adaptor not in the guitar but (irig I/o ) That you are plugging in your iPad ....3.0 or 3.5 thanks again
It’s a 3.5mm headphone jack if that’s what you’re referring to? The output on the iRig?
Pete, have you ever used a Zoom U-24 Handy Audio Interface? And if so how does it compare to the iRig Pro I/O (or DUO)? I'm torn between the two.
Hey David. I haven’t used one and have heard generally good things. The reason I went for the iRig over the Zoom is that I had heard reports of the preamps ok the Zoom being a little noisy. Been testing the iRig today and has been pretty quiet.
Pete Johns excellent! Thank you. BTW...more Spotify songs please!
Hi there, this is just what I am looking to record some guitar and bass backing tracks. As I am new to venturing into home recording a) can I record another guitar track over the one I have just recorded b) could I then record a bass line aaaaaand are there drums available? Thank you 🇬🇧
Yup 100% my friend. You can overdub as many tracks as you like when recording in iOS using this or a similar device. This video will provide more information - th-cam.com/video/FiFerT4ULUw/w-d-xo.html
@@PeteJohnsMusic thank you very much. Can you also use the beat sequencer to put the drums down and then add the guitar track(s)? Sorry, I know it’s a total newbie question but I haven’t seen a video about putting the drum track down this way and then adding the guitars. Thank you and love the videos
Irig pro best no irig pro I/o best friend,
Hey there. I don’t understand 100% but sounds like you like the iRig Pro?
I have an iRig Stream and when I turn off monitoring in garageband my guitar sound still comes in, so loud that I can't hear the drums I'm playing along with. haven't figure out a solution yet. I'm sure it's user error. Anyone have a similar experience and could solve this for me?
Hey there Paul. I haven’t personally experienced this? Maybe ask over at the GarageBand Users or Create Record Release Facebook group? createrecordreleaae.com
Can you charge the phone while you are recording?
If you're using a power adapter for the iRig, or using a powered USB hub then you can. More info here - studiolivetoday.com/usb
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks!
Hey Pete, will this work with any instrument? like Bass?
Yup 100%.
It’s a lot of money to just be able to plug things into an irig?
There’s options for pretty much all budgets. th-cam.com/video/lrp8rqPKgVA/w-d-xo.html
I'd like to use 1/4 inch cable to XLR for vocal recording. This should work in theory, right?
Hey there. If you’re looking to plug a mic in to an iRig that doesn’t have the XLR input it also probably does not have a preamp. So you’re right that technically it will “work”, but you’ll get a very low and probably poor quality signal. Check out this video for some more information. th-cam.com/video/xUsXWo7Liaw/w-d-xo.html
is there one with usbc plug?
The iRig Pro Duo has a USB-C cable included. Or you can use an adapter from USB.
@@PeteJohnsMusic sweet.. I just got an I pad pro and it only uses that usb c. Thanks!!!
Hey Pete, please suggest me some good low latency budget speakers for live monitoring on irig pro io. I connected it with my bose speakers and it is giving higher latency than normal headphones.
Oh really? That’s very strange. I use either headphones or just my headphones (Sennheiser HD280). I have heard that these little Presonus monitors are really good form a few folks - amzn.to/37D6USA
Can you correct the bum notes played? And how to collect irig to the 2 studio monitors?
Hi there. No, devices like this only record audio generally not MIDI. There are some apps that convert guitar to MIDI.
IRig devices only have a 3.5mm headphone jack. This can also be connected to speakers but the quality won’t be quite as good as an interface with dedicated audio out jacks.
@@PeteJohnsMusic thanks!
Hi Pete, what’s up? Do
You know if it’s possible to record via irig pro headphones your music to ipad? I would like to shoot a video that way.
Stay safe!
Hey there. Are you wanting to play audio though your iRig and use this with the camera app? You can do this but the challenge can be adding Andy defects or processing and sending this to the camera app.
Pete Johns , hi! I want to play guitar through the irig, record in Garage Band in my iphone and send it through the headset out of the irig pro to my ipad to shoot my video ( using a TRRS plug). I have the old irig pro witch doesn’t have this headset out . I want to know it’s possible, so i would buy it.
Thank you for the fast reply!
hello, i play clasic guitar whit pikup, and I want to make music videos with my iphon 8, without using the external microphone just, connect the amplifier's output to the iphon, is it possible with irig pro?
Hey there. Yes depending on the amp you are using. You can connect the line out in to the line in on the iRig Pro and record, though it will be in mono.
@@PeteJohnsMusic hi thanks for your availability, it is a Roland ac 33 amplifier for acoustic guitar I use it for street performances (I would use the output of the earphones). They told me that with only the trrs comector that connects to the ipohon (the iphon does not have a plug for a headphone) and a trs to trrs cable from the amplifier to the iphon and enough, is that right?
Hey, will this make an external mic work with the built in camera app on an iphone?
Hey there. Yup it sure will.
Will the irig pro work with android
Not sure. It does have a standard USB-A connector so with the right adapter it might.
Does it work for bandlab?
Yup. It will work via USB with any Mac or PC, and mobile using the included adapters.
Hi Pete, do you know if this will work with the new IPad Pro which now has a USB-C connector instead a lighting connector?
Yup. You just need a USB-A to USB-B adapter and then use the included USB-A cable.
Pete Johns Thanks for taking the time to reply
Any experience with iRig Recorder app that enables you to capture audio while video recording? I have trouble believing that almost nobody rated it on app store.
Hey there. I haven’t actually used it myself? Must be pretty unknown if nobody is reviewing it?
@@PeteJohnsMusic Thanks for the reply. Actually, I'm looking for an interface that directly records audio to my phone while I'm recording video through it, without using softwares such as garageband. (and saving time spent on editing,exporting for video production) I suppose roland go mixer has a way to do that, but I'm not so sure about this one.
It keeps turning on and off
Bugger!
Is mxl 900
MXL makes decent mics.
How do you hook up to the iPad Pro? It’s only a usb c connection. I have an interface that is a usb a. I bought the usb a to usb c adaptor and it doesn’t work with GarageBand on the new iPad Pro
Hey Andy. It should work fine with any USB-C to USB adapter? Perhaps it is a power issue? Because USB-C is a standard format (unlike Lightning which is proprietary), you can use any brand adapter in theory, so perhaps look for one which provides power as well as USB and other ports?
Pete Johns thanks for the reply. Turns out my problem was I wasn’t using a usb hub. Just ordered one today.
Nice one my friend. Let me know how it works out for you.
