Logic Remote is a free app for iPads running iOS 7.0 or higher. With Logic Remote, you can remotely control three Apple music apps on your Mac: Logic Pro, GarageBand, and MainStage. You connect Logic Remote to your music app with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Download Logic Remote at http://logicstudiotraining.com/logicremote.

When you open Logic Remote, it attempts to connect to the software running on your Mac, so you must have Logic Pro, GarageBand, or MainStage running. Otherwise, Logic Remote will shut down. If you have more than one of these applications running, you’re asked to choose the application you want to control. After you’re connected, you can control the application using your iPad.

In this chapter, you learn how to use your iPad to play software instruments, edit your tracks, mix your project, and write songs.
