How to Use GarageBand

To use GarageBand, you first need to install the application on your computer. Once it is installed, you can start using it by opening it. You can also access the application by clicking the GarageBand icon on your desktop.

To start recording audio or MIDI tracks, you first need to create a new project. To do this, click the New Project button in the toolbar and then enter a name for your project. You can then add tracks by clicking the + button next to the track you want to add and selecting the type of track you want to add it to (audio or MIDI). You can also add tracks by clicking the Add Track button and selecting a file from your computer.

To edit a track, you first need to select it in the timeline. To do this, click on the track in the timeline and then click on the Edit button. This will open the track’s properties window. In this window, you can change the track’s name, tempo, and other settings. You can also add effects to a track by clicking on the Effects tab and selecting from a variety of effects options.

Open the GarageBand app. Select the audio recorder option in the instrument selection panel. There are two options: you can plug in an external microphone or use the iPad’s built-in microphone.

When you use your computer’s built-in microphone, choose the built-in microphone as the input source in GarageBand > Preferences > Audio > Devices. Connect the microphone to your computer’s audio input port, if it has one, and select the built-in input to be the source of the track.

If the audio input menu does not appear, navigate to GarageBand > Preferences, and click on Audio and MIDI. Then, in the audio input pop-up menu, select built-in input. When you use a microphone that is connected to a USB port, choose the microphone.

Go to System Preferences > Sound > Make sure that the external microphone is set up under the section entitled “Select a Device for Sound Input”. When the external microphone does not recognize it, you may need a TRS to TRRS adapter in order for the external microphone to work on your Mac.
