Synopsis

GarageBand helps you turn your Mac into a fully-functional recording studio. The newest member of the iLife suite comes with pre-recorded loops utilizing hundreds of musical instruments to enable you to sound like a symphony orchestra or a one-man band. GarageBand ships with only limited documentation and that's where this book fills the gap. The MacAddict Guide to Making Music with GarageBand shows you how to create, perform and record your own music, even if you can't read a note or play an instrument - you can easily produce tunes that sound like you can! If you are musically inclined, this book shows you how to hook up your instruments and record your own sound, then you can mix it with as many other instruments as you want for a truly professional result. Once you have your tunes mixed to perfection, you can use them to score your iMovie projects, your iPhoto slide shows, and your iDVD projects. The MacAddict Guide to Making Music with GarageBand teaches you how to do all of that - and much more!
