How To Connect Piano To Garageband Ipad
To connect your MIDI keyboard to it, you have a few choices. A new edition of the iPad seems to come out every five minutes, so you may be working with one of several versions. If you have the original or second or third generation iPad, you have a 30-pin connector on the bottom edge of the device.

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.
