HOWEVER, I hadn't backed up or synched my iPad 2 in a while, so my newer GarageBand files weren't on it. So I backed up/synched my iPad 2 and then restored my New iPad to original settings, and clicked on 'restore from Steve's iPad' No luck. No GarageBand files. I tried this several times,with no luck. Any help will be greatly appreciated. The standard format of the GarageBand file is AIFF. This file size is huge because it's uncompressed. Therefore, many users would like to transfer the GarageBand files from Mac to another storage device or delete some unwanted ones to free up Mac space, which has become a cause of data loss inadvertently. Locate the GarageBand app on your device. Tap and hold the GarageBand icon until a small cross appears at the top left of the icon. Now tap on the X. A confirmation window will pop up. One is to open up the Files app, navigate to the On My iPad GarageBand folder, and share from there, however you like. Or you can share from within GarageBand itself, like this: Or you can share.
A tutorial for Garageband users that want to move their song to REAPER.
Learn the trick to exporting stems from Garageband using the track lock/freeze function.
1 – set project end marker
2 – track menu: configure track header, enable lock button
3 – click lock button on each track
4 – PLAY – Garageband will begin freezing all tracks (rendering audio files)
5 – save project
6 – Find Garageband project in Finder (usually in username/Music)
7 – Right-click on project, choose “Show package contents”
8 – in media folder, find “freeze files no sync” – this is the rendered audio
9 – copy this audio to a folder for the REAPER project
10 – Name audio files
11 – import audio
12 – adjust item volume for headroom
Garageband really doesn’t make it easy and you lose a lot in this process. Your mix will likely sound very different
– no automation
– track volume not applied to audio
– master volume not applied
– no master fx like reverb
– track names not used for rendered audio
