Apr 10, 2020  Question: Q: Garageband File Compatibility between iPhone and mac I am just trying to record tracks on the garageband app on my phone (real vocal or guitar tracks, not the screen instruments on the iPhone) and then transfer the track as a garageband project file to my mac so I can combine and edit tracks in garageband on my mac. May 19, 2012 I have made what I think is a pretty good song in Garageband on my iPad 2. I wan't to be able to keep a copy of this! I don't have a Mac, just a Windows 7 PC. I have e-mailed it to myself from the options within Garageband but i've noticed it is only in 128 kbs quality - that's rubbish!

GarageBand User Guide for iPad

You can import audio and MIDI files from your computer and use them in your GarageBand song. You can add:

• Audio files to an existing Audio Recorder or Amp track

• MIDI files to an existing Keyboard or Drums track

• Audio or MIDI files to new tracks

• Audio or MIDI files to your song from iCloud Drive or your iPad using the Files app

When you import an audio file, it’s converted to a 44.1 kHz sample rate, 16-bit depth format if the original format is different. Imported audio files don’t follow tempo changes you make in GarageBand.

When you import a multitrack MIDI file, GarageBand creates a new Keyboard track for each track in the MIDI file. The total number of resulting tracks cannot exceed 32 tracks. You cannot add multitrack MIDI files to cells in Live Loops.
