Your Garageband Studio

You’ve got your Mac and GarageBand, and you’re ready to set up your home recording studio and finally produce that album you’ve been talking about. But how do you do it? Your GarageBand Studio will help you set up your home studio with GarageBand as the central controlling DAW. It starts with a general introduction to GarageBand and digital recording, optimizing your Mac to get the best sound, purchasing the right equipment that suits your budget, and the basics of acoustics. It then moves on to provide a complete overview of the recording process, whether you’re laying down the perfect vocal, guitar, and bass tracks simultaneously or separately. You’ll learn to add Apple loops and video, use plug-ins, and record MIDI effectively as well. You’ll then edit, mix, and master your recording in Garageband, make MP3s, and export your songs to itunes. By the end of the book, you’ll be proficient in using Garageband in a practical recording setting and you’ll be ready to tackle your next recording project.Schonbrun, Marc is the author of 'Your Garageband Studio', published 2009 under ISBN 9781598634648 and ISBN 159863464X.
