Finally got a best recorded, used same steps to record guitar. No amp sounds, no gain no matter which amp I choose. Very frustrating. To much crap to get thru before you actually just create and play music !!!!!!!! Ugh.

[@sleekitwan]

This is a great intro. Some people making music with modern technology, will struggle to believe, the steps you have shown here are needed, before someone can get going. I definitely needed coaching through those steps, at one time, not long ago, so can recommend this little tutorial as a great first stab at GB for iOS/iPadOS. There’s already a wee criticism emerged in comments, and I confess I don’t understand it, so I will just stick with my usual observation, your content is easily worth what I’ve been charged to watch it…cough. When I think back to the cutting-edge of amateur audio production in 1997 or so, a Roland Vx summink, I mean, there were no graphical indications of any sort I recall, waveforms for example hah! Apple’s baby DAW was so belittled, it’s what attracted me to trying it in the first place, because I had fought and lost (!) with Cubase on a PC. Between you and the other guy (you know who!), it was the boost I needed, and lo,and behold, GB for mobile devices has really gotten a lot better, as it grew and the devices I could afford, improved. Have a great 2024 Patrick.

Awesome video!

[@joshualebowitz]

Wow, this is the best video that I have seen on this topic. Excellent work. Thank you.

[@Arthur_My_Dear]

Thanks bud, really great info and clear explanations. You’ve helped one new user to dive in and get more productive, sooner. Best

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Amazing, thanks for watching!

[@txdave2]

Thank you for this excellent intro . I learned enough with this one video to start playing around in this amazing app.

[@subwaydav]

This channel is by far easy friendly...it really makes you feel at home.

[@DrewHughesMusic]

Thank you again for a great video. I always learns so much from your channel

[@crashlander5555]

Awesome. Couple tips I didn’t know 😊 Q: can you use the iPad to go out there and add tracks to your main song on the Mac back at home? Do you have a video showing work on the same project with the 2 platforms? Happy new year!

[@bendtheatom-chadaddy]

Go to share, select send project, and send to your mac. It needs to convert it to a macOS file, but any plugins for iOS won’t transfer. But I use my IPad Air 5 M1 for starting my song ideas, etc. then refine on my Mac Mini M1

[@OSHAFox]

thank you again for an incredibly useful and helpful video!

[@nataliemeenakshithegreat7780]

Hi I wish you could explain how to plug connect our iPad Air last generation to our synthesizer that will play your sounds on the application GarageBand which I love ❤️ by the way but I love my korg too so please help thanks dear

[@ReedRogers]

Hey Patrick, will you do a video on how to properly upload a screenshot for artist approval for TikTok?

[@Grenguy_]

great video and all, but could you please make another one on how to download garage band on a device that dosn't suppourt IOS 18

[@rubypurplenomz]

hello can you please do a tutorial on how to make lofi song with garageband iPad 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 all the tutorials i found are in Macbook

[@themysteryartist1]

Is the process to add new sounds to garageband on MacBook Pro the same?

[@yourfriendmikem8018]

Is there a way to preview or demo synth sounds before loading them when using GB on an iPhone? On the iPad it’s easy because there’s room for the keyboard and the list of presets. As far as I know, on the phone you have to load a sound, be taken to the keyboard, and then go back to the sound library to switch. There must be a quicker way to demo sounds!

[@nataliemeenakshithegreat7780]

I want to play my own sound with adding my own midi synthesizer how do I do I bought the apple usb to usb c plugged my korg but on GarageBand I go to piano but when I record the part of my synthesizer it only picks the piano and not the arrangements very frustrating

[@thomasrizzi1470]

Can I add Garageband (and maybe Alchemy) to my OLD iPad 2 running iOS 9.3.6 (Wi-Fi + Cellular). - Also - Thanks for the cool videos!

[@TheSolarwaves]

Hi what would you recommend I buy to replace my 2016 MacBook pro i was using primarily for GarageBand? I want a piece of machinery that i can use solely for my music projects alone.

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

If you’re comfortable with the workflow on Mac, then a newer model Mac with an M series chip would be a good bet.

[@bendtheatom-chadaddy]

My Mac Mini M1 and my IPad Air 5 with the M1 chip work great

[@christianforbes-so3zl]

I used to eat sleeep $hit and piss music until my studio was destroyed by some very unsavory dip$hits. I had saved up for the studio over a decade. lost it all in a flash. For the past 9 years I have been trying to make recordings work on PCs and whatever I can g3t my hands on. All crap!!!!!! I HATE PCS!!!! But today the local Coppel put some ipads out on display so i got the store credit card and i'm going in to get one this weekend. FINALLY.... i'll be able to get my ideas down. After so many years. I almost ended everything so many times. Life without music is not worth living. It's HORRIBLE without music!!!!

[@garyhendrie4001]

Hope it works out for you. I’ve just got my first iPad since 1st generation. I’m having so much fun.

[@niikhb]

Hi, I’m having difficulty recording on my iPad , can I ask you for advice please?

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

@@niikhb Go for it, happy to help if I can.

[@SpringBRK]

Hey idk ifyou still look back at this video but can i know how to export a song from garage band, it will not give me the o-ti0ns to even export as wav on my ipad pro and im lost on how to extract it from the project, thanks

[@gilwood7530]

All the instruction videos are for IPHONE or IPAD ...Can I use this on AIR BOOK ??? Any help would be appreciated

[@noeprim2184]

Is the SM57 microphone & the M-Audio Air 192/4 compatible with my Ipad Pro IOS v. 17.3.1 3generation ? I can't find the appopriate drivers for my ipad!!!! I saw a lot of drivers for OS Windows. Can you help me. Thank you

[@keithamberg6392]

So I've watched many garage band videos and am completely lost. Why is this considered beginner friendly?

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Completely lost? Are you using a different version maybe? Are you using an iPad or iPhone?

[@keithamberg6392]

@@TheGaragebandGuide iphone. It just seems like every "get started in garageband/how to make a song in garageband" video doesn't actually walk through step by step how to do it. They just jump around from feature to feature. I literally can't even get started.
