Garageband Hints and Tips: To much reverb or delay

Garageband Hints and Tips: To much reverb or delay

Here is a quick tip...
You're working on a song... and you have lot's of tracks going on...
and you lay on the reverb and delay and effects....

Here is something to try...
in the middle of the song... hit the STOP button ... and LISTEN!
listen to how much delay lingers on....
listen to how much reverb lingers on...
it may be too much... and this might muddy up your song...
and while listening to your song... you can't always hear it...
but when you stop song mid stream... you can really hear how much you have applied across all your tracks...

sometimes when my song is done... i save a copy... and remove all reverb and delay to see how it sounds...

Give it a try!

Garageband Hints and Tips - Recording Music

Here's something to try when recording your next piece of music...
Normally, when writing music, we listen to speakers in our studio.

Try writing your next piece of music wearing headphones the entire time.
When you are pretty much done writing and adjusting your song... then listen through your studio speakers/monitors.
I found this to produce a really nice sound that came alive!

Give it a try!
