[@CtrlVicky]

Thank you! But I’m tryna to fit more keys onto the screen do u know how to do that?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Hey there Vicky. Unfortunately the number of keys you can see on the keyboard is defined by the size or your iPhone or iPad. Larger devices will have more keys and smaller ones less.

[@prodmorningstar]

Thank you, now I feel less crazy thinking it used to have key labels.

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

😎🤘

[@Tennessee1981]

I finished recording a few bars , and wanted to add some touch instruments using the Smart Keyboard But then I pressed play on the first track recording, then selected a key board to play, and it was literally playing a melody following every note . This happened to any keyboard I chose, and did so without the auto Play switch on, nor playing with the Smart Keys. It was like a ghost, but every keyboard, followed the same melody that fit perfectly. Was that just a fluke, or a feature from when I updated to the latest IOS. I just can’t figure out how to get that awesome feature back. The video didn’t really explain that, so I’m really asking if one of , or if you know of such a feature. Thanks!

[@Soundeffectsforyouu]

Any tips for the dual manual keyboard setting? There used to be one

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

There is on iPads, but not on iPhone. ua-cam.com/video/H2RQFeoIRWU/v-deo.html

Is there a way to gett letters on the piano in midi edit mode in GarageBand. Dont know if its called midi edit mode but its Where You edit your notes?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

It should have the notes over on the left side. It won’t show them right there on the piano roll notes though sorry.

[@finn108]

Grüße von Lars aus dem Musikunterricht

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

👍

[@Adri-ts7ct]

Hiii.. can we change that note labels into Do, Ré, Mi .... ?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Hey there. I don't believe so? Only letters as far as I know.

[@jamo3479]

anyway to get them to show on the piano roll?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

The note labels? Depending on the instrument they will show on the far left of the piano roll by default.

[@therealjimmy5411]

If using a midi keyboard instead of touching a visual symbol for say a bass dumb in Garageband on ipad how can you learn the midi keyboard keys that relate to physically touching the screen?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

Hey there. I made some stickers for my keyboard to help with drum playing, as I show in this video - ua-cam.com/video/RANCX1nnR6g/v-deo.html

[@swagman2861]

Is this also for guitar?

[@PeteJohnsMusic]

No unfortunately. There is no note display on any of the guitar fretboards.

[@emiel333]

Hi Pete, how are you doing today? I'm fine. I'm an experienced keyboard player and I'm learning a good friend of mine how to play the keys and work with Garageband. Coincidently I teaches today how to play song knowing which note on the keyboard is A, B, C etc. And now I'm getting this great video which can help my friend a lot right in front of me! It has to be so, Pete. I share this video immediately with him, thanks mate! Greetings, Emiel.

[@PeteJohnsMusic]
