Thanks! There's a whole group of us working to bring music education screaming into the 21st Century. I can't take all the credit. But that gives me motivation to know you appreciate what I'm working on!

[@h_sth_r6942]

as a garageband veteran, you have no idea how relaxing and insightful this was to watch. you’ve got some good energy. if you’d ever want to make more videos like these - i’ll be watching! ❤

[@thestagerocks]

Thanks! I keep promising myself (and others) I'll make more and then I keep not doing it.

[@h_sth_r6942]

@@thestagerocks I know that feeling all too well! Do you really want to make more/new videos? Something holding you back? Don’t do it for the sake of others, like me, who ask you to - only do it if it makes you happy! ❤️ no pressure!

This was my first drum beat to play it was 1 year ago. 😊 how I learned it was 1st bass kick and floor Tom 2nd was close the hi-hat. 3rd was snare and 4th was hi Tom once and floor 3 times. Boom scht tap boom boom boom. Really easy and fun. 😊 ah, the memories

[@twilightspire9983]

Oh I forgot the fill was the same but going into it it was the crash of the first beat instead of the floor Tom.

[@ethanslater4687]

Its funny how it said it the intro that it was Rock Friday, but when he went on the Ipad it was Tuesday the 5th LOL, loved the vid though keep it up.

[@thestagerocks]

I have a mac and I just use QuickTime. I plug it in with the regular cable and select the iPad as the camera.

[@rickyjaso3142]

Nice! 👏 How long have you been using GarageBand?

[@thestagerocks]

For a few years. I tried to get my guitar students into using GarageBand since so many have iPads. Never really took though.

[@GarageBen]

Yeah, it's such a useful tool, makes sense to recommend it to students. And thanks for answering even though you have hundreds of comments here!

[@GarageBen]

Btw, if you'd like to check out a GarageBand track or two on my channel: feedback is always appreciated. Thanks

[@donutlord6997]

What piano sound do you use if you dont have the hammer wood?

[@thestagerocks]

I would try "nylon guitar" or "classical guitar" if those are options.

[@Alhajrii]

Thank u so much!!!

What category did you use? like empty project, ringtone, or etc?

[@thestagerocks]

This was on iOS. I'm pretty sure you don't get an option when starting a project on iOS.

[@thestagerocks]

I always do empty project.

[@meghanmedendorp3257]

Mk, don’t know about all ya’ll, but my GarageBand doesn’t have Hammered Wood, so is there anything alternative that I could use?

[@thestagerocks]

Dry acoustic guitar. It's close enough.

the song that is stuck in your head at the piano part is sub urban cradles

[@dolphinanimations8527]

My favorite song ever

[@aggiekrasnodebska1125]

What recording app do u use

[@BransonBecker]

No, he uses QuickTime

[@thestagerocks]

Really? You know what...I did download a trial app which I tried just before recording but in the end I used QuickTime and an audio cable going out my iPad into my recording interface. Quite an awesome free solution but the audio and video has to be sync'd in post. Not a problem for me as I run everything through Logic anyhow.

[@jden_224]

You know that you’re not restricted to the Alchemy Synth, right? You can enter the piano thing and then select an old synth sound from there.

[@suenate8446]

Thank you. Very well explained. I’m self-taught and your video helped me play “Believer” in 1 hour . If I select “grand piano” what would be the tempo? I set the key signature to Bb minor and time signature to 4/4 . Is this correct ?

[@thestagerocks]

Bb minor, 4/4 and 115bpm is what I have mine set to but the internet says 125bpm.

[@suenate8446]

@@thestagerocksThanks

[@hisoka4061]

Youre voice ❤️

[@thestagerocks]

Hey thanks! So I don't want to gush about a little compliment but once I did this training video for a parts manufacturer. It was a 3 day rush job and it was total crap. But everyone said "who did the voice over" because they thought it was awesome. Well actually I had this terrible cold so my voice dropped and was super scratchy. So it made me sound like a movie announcer. I was glad someone liked something about the video. Alas now I'm back to the nasaly child voice.

[@retrograven]

if your garage band doesn't have hammered mallets i recommend using aurora over iceland

Maybe you're thinking about Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata? It sound like it for me.

[@thestagerocks]

I only said it because it was driving me nuts. But this has become a fun game! The first two chords in the progression do follow moonlight...but then the progression changes. I'd say you're currently in the lead.
