One of the cool features of Ipad Garageband is the keyboard which allows you to add some cool expression to your playing by selecting the PITCH keyboard mode which allows you to slide your fingers up and down the keys to change pitch! Wouldn't it be cool if a real keyboard would allow this!!
Give it a try!
My next thing to try is importing from mac to ipad and back again to add these expressive keyboard parts to my mac garageband parts!
Enjoy

Mastering in Apple Garageband
Mastering in Garageband is an important task that comes at the end of creating a new song. One of my favorite techniques for getting good mastering results in Garageband is to use a multi function plugin called OZONE. I use this plug in on the master track to output my song to iTunes or to a hi resolution AIFF file. Another good technique is to output your song to an AIFF stereo file, and then create a new garageband file, and import this AIFF file. Then apply OZONE to the stereo master file and output again to your final mastered file for CD production or input into iTunes!
Give it a try... and keep making music... it's good for the soul!

Using iPad Garageband Drum Editor in Mac Garageband
I LOVE the new iPad Garageband Drum Editor!! It makes it easy to create cool, unique, evolving drum beats. The Mac version of Garageband does not currently have this cool drum editor. What I do is record cool loops in iPad Garageband Drum Editor and then export to itunes, where I can then import into Mac Garageband! Make sure your loops are on a nice 8 bar or 16 bar measure boundary. And also make note of the tempo, so you can import into a new Mac Garageband file at that tempo. You can then turn into a apple loop, where tempo can change as you change song tempo!
Enjoy iPad Garageband Drum Editor!

Garageband Music Since 2004!
I just looked at all my Garageband Music files and there are over 1010 pieces of music I have created since February 11 of 2004!!! Garageband is in my opinion the best music creation tool ever created for a computer... regardless of price!
Hope all you GB users are creating great music!

Garageband Previews
Greetings Garageband Lovers!
I have hundreds, maybe thousands of songs I have written in Garageband. Opening them up in GB can take quite a while for each song, and sometimes I just want a quick listen, so that method can be a pain in the a-ss...lol. The cool thing to do in this case is to go into GB preferences, and make GB create a PREVIEW of the file! Then you can be in the mac finder and just click once on a file and hit the SPACE BAR and the mac will play the song!! Quick, instant, easy!!!
Hope all you GB users are creating great music!

Using GB 4.0 vs. 5.0
Happy New Years!
Just wanted to know how many people out there have the newest GB installed and GB 4.0
I personally like the older version better, and on my system is much faster!
What are your thoughts!

Garageband Hints and Tips: Using Garageband tools to learn new chords :)
Garageband Hints and Tips: Using Garageband tools to learn new chords :)
I am self taught in music and song writing... and just know enough theory to be dangerous!
One feature I like is Garagebands ability to show you what chord you are playing on the piano keyboard. I then use this to string some chords together, and actually know what I am playing... or, if I read a good article in say keyboard magazine and they do a profile on a song, and give the chord sequence, I can easily figure it out!
Give it a try!! and leave a comment to let me know what you think!
Keep making great music, and think outside the box!
