- Feb 16, 2017 I would like to start creating my own backing tracks so I can expand the songs we play. I can play bass and drums and have the necessary instruments to play these. Can I use garage band to create backing tracks that sound professional? I've been going through the many youtube videos but can't seem to make head nor tail of them!
- Jul 06, 2017 On an iPad, tap My Songs in the Control Bar. Tap the song you want to back up. In the Share dialog, tap iCloud Drive. Browse to the location where you want to save the song. After reinstalling GarageBand or getting a new device, you can import a song from iCloud Drive to GarageBand on your device.

It is exaclty the other way around. In your case, you should trust your ear and not the visual level (alone).
What you want to achieve is the 'Same Loudness' and not the 'Same Level'. These are two different things. For example, lets assume you have a high energy punk rock tune in your set. It is mixed at full level and you feed it to the FOH. Now the next song in your set is a lullaby played with just a whistle. If you mix that tune also at full level and send it to the FOH, then you just punctured the ear drums of your audience.
You want to mix each song appropriately so they 'sound right' regarding the level. A ballade is softer and doesn't have to be mixed to 0dB. If you play only ballades or only lullabies with whistles, then they all can be at 0dB. .. I think you get the idea.
So when you mix your set, I would recommend that you load all the Tracks into GarageBand and solo each track when you export them. This way you can compare the loudness, so they sound right compared to each other

Of course, the Click Track could always be at the same level.
BTW, if you would play your songs from your laptop, then you could use the feature in iTunes that let you offset each Track's volume. Select the Track, click cmd+I and select the Options tab. I don't know if that setting applies when you sync the song to your iPad. Haven't tried it yet.
One important thing about your workflow. Please be careful with your panning. The Pan Control in GarageBand is a balance control not a 'real' stereo pan. Moving the knob to the right will lower the left channel and moving the knob to the left will reduce the volume of the right channel. If you do that on your imported stereo track, then you eliminate important content of that stereo track. You want to use an external AU Plugin that is doing either directional mixing or true mono summing.
Hope that helps
