    Everything you just said is what I m trying to learn.

    I know they have to go somewhere, I can stream to Cubasis.

    I'm subscribed to the sound test room on youtube, and that was the catalyst of this post. I like the content he covers, but not the music he uses to do so. I'm learning these apps exist, but I'm not learning to use them to make the music I enjoy.

    I want the sound test room that makes blues tracks, not dance tracks. The exact same apps covered in the exact same manner, but just with a different end product.

    But there's no difference then, just do what he does but play blues. Do you mean you don't know how to stream between apps? That's a different story.

    After 30 secs of thud, thud, thud I get a headache. I don't enjoy the music, and it makes it hard to get through the videos.

    I hate to sound like a dick, cause your just trying to be helpful, but this is literally what I said in my first post.

    I'm convinced that what I'm looking for doesn't exist, and may not even be possible.

  • I think you're probably right that a specialized how to make blues/country/rock music on iOS YouTube channel probably doesn't exist. But a lot of the techniques covered in videos like those on the soundtrstroom are applicable to any genre.

    that's not literally what you said, but I did give you a few ways. The are tons of videos on how to use audiobus, etc though, that would be a place to start. One thing about music production, and all aspects of music really, is that technique is technique and knows no genre. But if you're using a set of tools that is more geared towards Edm, etc, then that's mostly what you'll hear in examples.

    I just gadget to make terrible Edm for my own enjoyment, even though I don't really listen to much music like that, but there are definitely things I've learned doing it that I apply to other styles.

    Maybe this one will be helpful

  • I do mostly power-pop/rock stuff, but I'd treat recreating blues classics the same. Especially starting out, it helps to accept the limitations of using a drum machine. Pare the drum tracks down and use it like a metronome. Just a steady kick/snare with hihat, maybe some occasional tom fills; that's it. Keep it lean and unobtrusive.

    The challenge is learning to find the groove you're looking for in the bass, and then it can carry over to the rhythm guitar. It takes practice to not conform to a straight drum beat, but that's half the fun.

    That's just my take on approaching rock n roll/blues/"real music" on iOS. I feel like the other posters here have good ideas as well, so I hope you can take some encouragement from all the advice and find a way to get a foot in the door then break it down.

  • For (multi-track) recording blues- or country music you need to choose some kind of DAW (your virtual homestudio) to start with: Cubasis, Auria, Garageband, etc., and when you search on Youtube for "backing track with iPad" or "Blues with iPad" (etc.) you mainly get Garageband tutorials: eg.:


    So maybe that's a good DAW to start (experimenting) with?

    Thanks, I've gotten that far too. I'm trying to grow and add some more to the track.

    I'm starting to get the feeling that either I'm not explaining my goal properly, or it's just not possible, which is why people aren't grasping my question. My ultimate goal is making blues covers using electronic instruments.

    To start, if Model 15 were my only instrument, could I make a cover of Sweet Home Chicago?

    After that could I add a drum beat? Once those are sync'd I'd add a piano melody. Once those are playing, I'd pick up the guitar and play over the mix.

    Model 15 to cover Sweet Home Chicago? Are you trying to do an interpretive cover?
    Korg's Gadget has a few new gadgets that include pianos(including electric), a drum machine that specializes in acoustic drums, a bass gadget, and an audio recorder gadget. You could record your guitar parts to a click, add piano & drums, and play with the amount of swing necessary to get your feel. Pretty straightforward stuff.

  • I honestly don't get why you need iOS specific tutorials. Can't you just use a tutorial for those genres from any Daw and just adapt them to whatever you use on IOS ? Vst plugins, iOS apps via Audiobus, Cubasis or Auria, even gadgets inbuilt synths. The techniques are usually universal.

    I think I understand now that it was not musical techniques that were desired but actual ios workflow techniques. That garageband tutorial about doing a blues song seems like it's exactly what's needed- I know there's a lot of fun apps but I think it's often missed just how capable garageband is. Since it's less robust in mixing than auria, etc, more planning on the front end for sounds is required, but that's the way music was recorded for about 90 years. The new garageband goes more in depth anyway, so now with the eq and comp you can do really well even in mixing.

  • Garageband is great. Please, Apple, add a mixer to it!

  • @gmslayton was gracious enough to create the exact video I was asking for on his YouTube channel. Here's the link to the AB thread he started. The video is in the first comment
