In the interests of getting as many people as possible on board, I am trying to get ahead with what is coming up.
August will be 'Drum Track' month. I will put either an .mp3, .wav or .aif file of a drum track (already suppled by Karl T - thank you.) on the website or upload it to you via WeTransfer.
Though I am sure the supplied track will have its own structure, the drums can be 'cut up' and used in any way you see fit. You can even add extra drums or percussion to the track and if you have the software, you can speed up or retune the drums for a different effect. I will give more details when I analyse the drums as supplied.

Will I be able to paste it into GarageBand on the iPad? Hoping so, I've just paid for some drum loops (hopefully to improve the drum tracks) and they copy and paste very easily. Pretty sure I won't be able to alter the tempo so could we be told what that is before we start? It may help with some of the quantising which my keyboard playing certainly needs.
Do you realise you said we can all cut up Karl's drums?

Tim, from what I can tell, you can add an audio file into iTunes on a computer within the GarageBand app, then add an audio track on the iPad and import the audio file as a loop much like you do with drum loops. Might be worth while testing this method out in the meantime.
Really not sure about quantise to an audio track if that track is originally recorded without the quantise method. Only needs to speed up or slow down a fraction throughout the duration and that will then be out of time with any quantising you apply to other tracks.

For anyone using GarageBand and wanting to get the drum track in, i had Amplitube installed (a free guitar emulation app with a recording app built into it). I clicked on the mp3 file on the email and selected 'open with' and selected Amplitube and put it into the recording section. I then copied it (can't quite remember how), opened GarageBand and made a new track (setting the length to automatic) and pasted it in an audio track.
There was some help on Youtube about it but it uses a different intermediate app (not Amplitude but the principle is the same).

Cutting up the drum track and editing gives me too many options so, just so there's a peg in the ground, I'm going to try and use the drums as they are. I may regret this but possibly not as much as the listeners.
