What is gbLink?

gbLink is a small Mac OSX program that allows gbRemote on your iPhone or iPod touch to communicate with GarageBand on your Mac. IT IS REQUIRED FOR GBREMOTE TO WORK.

You must download gbLink using a web browser (like Safari) on your Mac, then open it & install it on the Mac where you run GarageBand (not your iPhone). You also need Wi-Fi.

See the "Requirements & Setup" link button at the top of this page for more information.
