Great thanks.

[@celineellismusic5112]

Definitely at least 5 'OMG' moments from this list for me! Thanks Dean

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

ha that's awesome Celine Ellis Music! Glad to help! -Dean

[@user-qd6hj2fn4w]

I'm from Russia, from a small village, I started watching your channel, I learned music, THANK YOU! I would never have thought that I could write music and sing. There are already some works on my channel, I will be glad if you look and give advice. THANK YOU AGAIN !!

[@KingShahede]

LOVE THIS! I've been using Garageband to teach myself how to produce over the last 3 or 4 years, as a drummer/musician with over 10 years of performance and teaching experience. I got into creating my own sounds using their plugins and understand how the automation works, but you still taught me a few things. Great video!!!

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

That's awesome Brandon! -Dean

[@MsFattyb]

I just want to say how awesome it is that you do these videos and especially that you take the time to reply to comments. That goes above and beyond!

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

Well I appreciate that Michael, that means a lot! -Dean

[@KeithBlade]

You have a special gift for explaining topics, with both simple clarity and enough detail. Glad I found this channel, and to His glory!

[@randommoments1074]

This is the first video that actually helps I can't express how greatful I am! Thank you so much!

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

So glad it was helpful!! -Dean

[@jasonsierra847]

You're an absolute angel for doing this for others Dean, it must be a lot of work to make the videos. It's helped me immensely as there aren't any guides as in-depth and clear as yours. Thanks for doing this, it made a huge difference for me and undoubtedly countless others. All the best!

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

Really (really) appreciate that Jason, thanks for the encouragement. It does indeed take a lot (a whole lot) of time to make each video and the payback is small at this point so I appreciate your reaching out to say thanks and feel free to share the content with other music making friends! -Dean

[@JesseMcDonald1]

I recently got some new equipment and started using GarageBand on my Mac. I’ve come to you for tips and tricks and I can guarantee that they have helped me a lot. I appreciate it so much, thanks dean!

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

That's so cool to hear Jesse, glad the content is helpful and thanks for sharing! -Dean

[@SukalyanDas]

this is gold mine

[@raymondoskiera7547]

Thanks Dean. been dealing with an hp and waveform 10 11 12 for several yrs and a korg d16 for several yrs before. Never came close to the broadcast quality that GarageBand gives right out of the gate. I'm 68 and continue to Struggle with the digital realm and low rung income. Your tutoring gave me some much needed directions. I hope to see the creative gumption and inspiration come back to me. Its been waning. Helped a 86 year old "sweet wealthy lady"move. Then she decided to just give me her iMac. Happy to simply use her iPad and iPhone. This is being considered a gift from God. And your compassionate consideration is of apparently from the nature of the divining forces as well. Wishing you good fortune.

[@badboyscoob124]

This is my favorite of all your vids!! I've only had garageband for 2 months, and this, and the one with 10 tips, have been my go to so far!! Great job!! Results coming soon.

[@javvieh]

Glad I found this. I am coming here from Logic Pro 8 and I was perfectly happy with Logic Express 7. If I learn how to import my own drum sounds I will be most happy.

[@nickcarlson6860]

Thank you. What a fantastic video. I’m saving it and will rewatch again in its entirety as well as to drill down in several places. I have other DAWs but GarageBand is a pretty amazing piece of software. I’m constantly amazed at all the functionalities. Great job.

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

Love hearing that Nick! So glad it was helpful and glad to hear you're putting this stuff to work! -Dean

[@edgaracevedo9658]

Very informative! Glad I took your course and I am getting all these extra tips. I can now see that Garage Band has so many features. I recently learned on another course the Groove function where you can have lets say a bass line grove in the style of the drums. Neat!

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

That's awesome Edgar! There are definitely a lot of powerful tools in GarageBand :) -Dean

[@sleekitwan]

Subscribed right away during i think the first or second how-to video of yours I saw last week. It’s great just you let folks accompany you as you build and compose a song. Easy-going and welcoming education style you deserve to attract a boatload more subscribers. Keep safe and be equal ! I’ll make my way through your back-catalogue.! I use iOS on an ipad Pro 2, but already released a couple of songs through CDbaby, who I recommend. Never a short process, but if you put a lot of yourself into a song and it turned out well it’s worth occasionally copyrighting in congress and using a distro/publishing organisation even just for the heck of it. Thanks again, best of luck from me in the UK.

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

So glad to hear it was helpful sleekitwan and glad to have you connected to the channel! -Dean

[@wf8888]

[@RobertHolzapfel]

JUST GREAT ! Thanks 🤩

[@bent-erikmunch9839]

Great tips Thanks :)

[@joeeldred8304]

Thanks for the tips. In other DAWs they use side chains to clean up the effects of echo and reverb. So that while the singer is singing the effects are turned down and while the singer rest the echo and reverb are heard. I see that that can be done by automation. Cool!

[@chiparooo]

Excellent! Lots of goodness here. Thanks for sharing!

[@thesongwritingstudio5783]

Glad it was helpful Chiparoo, glad to share it! -Dean
