Use Logic Remote without a shared Wi-Fi network
If you don’t have a shared Wi-Fi network, you can still use Logic Remote on your iOS device to control Logic Pro, GarageBand, and MainStage on your Mac.
To use Logic Remote 1.3.1 without a shared Wi-Fi network, you can connect your iOS device directly to your Mac using a Lightning cable, or you can create a computer-to-computer Wi-Fi network between devices.
To connect using either of these methods, you’ll need the following:
- A Mac running macOS Sierra 10.12.4
- Logic Pro 10.3 or later, GarageBand 10.1.5 or later, or MainStage or later
- An iPad or iPhone running iOS 10.3 or later, and Logic Remote 1.3.1 or later
Connect a Lightning cable
In addition to the requirements mentioned above, you’ll need a Lightning cable and iTunes 12.6 to make this connection.
Make sure to restart your Mac after updating iTunes.
To connect using a lightning cable:
- Connect the Lightning cable from your iOS device to your Mac.
- Open Logic Pro, MainStage, or GarageBand on your Mac.
- Open Logic Remote on your iOS device.
- In the dialog on your iOS device, choose the Mac you’re connected to.
- In the alert on your Mac, click Allow to confirm and establish the connection.
Create a computer-to-computer network
You can set up a temporary Wi-Fi connection between your iOS device and your Mac to use Logic Remote.
To connect using a computer-to-computer network:
- Create a computer-to-computer network on your Mac.
