Guitar FX rig automation made easy. If your multi-effects get complicated, a Bluetooth MIDI I/O, the puc+, could save you. Chris Heille has a quick tip here for guitar players w/ complex live rigs that might make performing your live show a lot easier.

Recently, I re-created Charli XCX’s song “Boom Clap” using only a MIDI guitar controller (jamstik). We set out to do as much as we could with the jamstik exclusively in GarageBand and the iPhone 6. The iPhone 6 really works well for this, so it’s not really a challenge to work only in the iPhone as a “limitation.” Like we demonstrate in our “GarageBand Loop Recording” video, you can record your ideas without stopping the music if you make your instrument track selections in advance.
