It is a midi controller so it will work fine with any DAW, but I do not own an Ipad so I wouldn't know the answer to that. Try googling it. As far as the playability goes, it is alright. Good for its price. it is not good for playing piano at all because the way it registers the velocity readings are very low so the result is it sounds like you are barely pressing the keys, but it works great for synth playing. The springs under the keys respond and feel very good, and as I'm sure you probably know, there are plenty of knobs and buttons for plenty of midi learn functions. The only downside is the way it reads velocity.

Probably, the keys are not weighted, so it is not the same feel as a piano or professional key board. It is a good starter to see if you like playing, and it is highly portable.

I plug the UMX490 into my iPad with iPad camera connector. To get more volume, I plug my iPad into a a small portable rechargeable player - Altec Lansing IM600. the keyboard seems to work with a variety of music apps - ThumbJam, Virtuoso, etc.. I haven't used GarageBand much but I'm sure it will work. I really like the feel of the keys. I have a heavy 76 key keyboard for home use and I like the portability of the UMX490. I modified the styrofoam in the original box so I could use the box as a carrying case. Think about what you could use as a portable stand...

no it does not. But it only works for mac, so you should be able to use garageband.

This product works wonders with garage band. All you need to do is go to preferences and change the audio input to built in input and you're ready to rock. However, you would get a cleaner signal with a proper USB audio interface, none the less this is a good, cost effective alternative.

Yes! That's what I use my Jam Plus with-an iPad mini. Works great together. :)

Theres a sticker on the box that says "Made for iPod, iPhone and iPad. I use it with my iPod Touch 4 and no problems at all, mic is very clear, buttons are responsive. Im sure its going to work on your iPad too unless the updates will cause some glitch to it that it would not work properly or as it should be. ;) Enjoy!

Again, it works with Garageband, but I haven't tried using it with Amplitube or Pocketamp. I don't know if those apps give you the option of using Bluetooth. Could be an update to both of these apps if we make enough noise!

It's great with the Ipad mini bluetooh! the sound is astounding so I greatly recommend it! Turn on the bluetooh, pair with the Alpatronix right out of the box, and you will be enjoying music so quick you'll be surprised!

Yes! But you'll need a usb/midi interface and you need to assign the pedals as hotkeys for whatever you want it to do. I haven't tried it with GarageBand but I know it works with logic

This is useful for any input-output of audio. It works with any music software, not just Garage Band. Mainly I got this for the optical output to my stereo system. I use this with a Mackie mixer to control audio lines in-out.

Nothis is an output device only.For an input, you need a pre-amp device. I highly recommend the Roland Quad or Octacpture series. Not sure how many input you need. I am assuming you are using a Mac since you asked about Garageband. The Zoom TAC2 is also a nice device.

I have my ipad synced up. Sound is very good and totally controllable.also, my Android smart phone is the second one. Works perfect.

I think it probably won't work like that. There is music interface/adapter for ipad, but it only take 6.3mm jack as input so it could be connected to musical instruments and mic as well. If you plan to connect your G - track, it might work after you convert it's input to regular jack (I've seen such adapter sold somewhere). IMHO & CMIIW :)

I know when I used it with GarageBand on my iPad, I had to turn the volume up fairly high and under settings I had to make sure "monitor" was turned on so you can listen as you play. I've also not been able to get it to work without playing AND using the headphones at the same time. I'm not too happy with this cable personally, but I guess it works OK. Hope this helps at least a little bit!

I am not sure about GarageBand, but it's definitely compatible with LogicPro 9, which is what I have. Logic detects it with no problems.
