Welcome to the official training course for GarageBand, Apple’s totally
redesigned and more-powerful-than-ever music recording and arrange-
ment software. This book is for everyone from the beginner just curious
about music creation to the seasoned professional who happens to be
new to GarageBand. Even if you have been using the previous versions
of GarageBand for years, this book is packed with all-new projects and
features that you’ll want to learn.
Leave all apprehension behind. This isn’t a manual that goes step-by-step
through every button, instrument, and preference. Nor is it a cursory
tour that detours at will through GarageBand with no particular direc-
tion in mind. Rather it is a guided, in-depth, hands-on workshop to
immerse you in GarageBand and many of the application’s exciting and
powerful recording, arranging, music-making, fixing, mixing, and shar-
ing tools.
You don’t need a background in music or any musical instruments or
equipment other than a Mac. However, if you happen to have some
instruments around, you’ll be invited to play and record them. And for
those of you who have always dreamed of learning to play piano or guitar,
Bonus Lesson 1, “Learning to Play Piano and Guitar with GarageBand,”
walks you through GarageBand’s first learn-to-play lesson.
