@ex295 Just Got My First iMac For My B-Day Last Month, Never Been Happier

[Jst0911]

I hate how he says garage

[metalupurass11]

a lot of great features that steve didn't even mention! Like being able to use your computer keyboard to record, and that you can tamper with each individual note's length and volume after you're done recording. Such a great app for music lovers like myself, great for scoring powerpoints and short films, both of which I have done with this app.

@ex295 lol, i had vista before, and i got my laptop a packardbell robbed, so now i use MacBook Pro,,,

[PwnedByTheBANZAAAI]

@ex295 sell your pc , that's what i did :D

[Leeroy2304]

I would laughed so hard if he played on the 70's piano the old school mac crash tones or startup tones :D

[appleAddict240872]

John Mayer is a porn addict.

[musicalbacon2]

you can only use a keyboard for the software instruments. you can plug into the computer with either a microphone or your instrument using the mic port on any mac. i've actually recorded guitar straight to garage band by plugging it in that way.

[ZioZambe]

You can write the music with notes or use the keyboard or a lot of other ways

[blizzalx]

This is a great app... but what I don't like is that now it is way too easy to make music... everyone with a mac can now be a musician and make decent songs.... kinda disturbing for real musicians.

[GoHiltyGo]

yeah, but your music won't sound good if your not good. and people should be able to make music however they want.

[Groovywaves11]

Fukn awesome

[guitarman069]

jobs is sick..keeps coughing

[tasteslikewater]

This is why I LOVE mac

[Jaggabone]

Why doesn't ANYONE have the full performance here?!

[bamyo53]

there is look in the related video or mroe from: HesNikke

[DMtactical]

The first time I used a Mac, I opened up GarageBand, and spent the entire time just playing the different instruments. It was so easy and some of the sounds were so great, I got hooked even though I'm not a musician. GarageBand makes me want to be one lol.

[angelxsid]

God. Idiots. Steve says something, CLAP!!

[lokas4eva]

can anyone helbp me i lost al my loops

do i have to buy ilive new

[mayaogdaniel]

Download them agian, just press one a loop and a window pops up press download

[coolkids105]

Try fruitloop I think its called that i dont know lol i use mac!

[JMartyson]

The is the reason i bought a Mac.

[TerryCPiano]

LOL, grand piano? NO WAY

I have a grand piano and the build in grand piano sounds nothing like the real grand piano.

Garageband still rocks!

[starkid423]

i love garageband its aawesome i play guitar and it just makes my experience so much more fun!

[DragonRory17]

Well Garage band is basically a slightly toned down version of Logic studio which is what all music recording studios use today and is brilliant for all music things. Ur better off to save up for a iMac and get that coz garage band is all part of iLife.

[SpoofyTMSGOGF]

Pro tools is also far more expensive. I'd expect it to be better.

[wisteela]

This is one of the reasons I want a Mac.

[jshdln]

you really should try and get one if you play an instrument garageband was the reason why i looked into buying a mac once i got one i realized they have so much other great software

[wisteela]

Indeed. Be great for use with my guitars and keyboards.

Just one of the reasons I want a Mac.

I do actually have an old G3 600 iMac Graphite.

[Gredran]

garageband was actually one of the reasons i started to work to become a musician. just ONE though, i needed more persuasion

[whirly1300]

I started learning about music first after i started usig gargeband! now i have logic express 8

[Phloxx1]

get a yamaha motif rack!!i can tell that its better and has more instruments cause ive has garageband before and its not as good as the yamaha motif rack!!

so GET YAMAHA MOTIF RACK

[wisteela]

Given that I plan to buy a Mac anyway, Garageband will be the much cheaper option!

[sfcub69]

I'll make you a deal: I'll buy the product you promote, if you learn how to use complete sentences and punctuation the next time you promote something.

[davidvincent2]

true that,

[glasspig]

you can get a midi controller and buy the same exact generic yamaha motif sounds on a disk for like a hundred bucks. with a DAW you can be way way more selective with MIDI sounds. the motif just gives you tons of junk sounds that are only good for pop music and has no mixing capabilities.

Am i the only one who sees phillip schuller?

Lmao he's pretty cool

[adamfishercox]

yep, thats him :D

[1BrknHrtdRomeo]

wow...i think i should get a mac O_o

ionno though...the only thing that's iffy with me is that i play a lot of pc games...so is this not going to work on a mac?

[4izm0v]

I love iLife '08

[renedotmac]

I Love MAC!

[Bobertoq]

Same here... I know how you feel!

[joeperry81]

it's SO frustrating, as a Windows XP user and amateur guitarist, trying so many music editors and never finding the right one. GarageBand seems to be so user friendly. I wanna switch to a MacBook asap!!!

[kevin381]

once you go mac, you never go back

[ITJProductions]

True DAT

[SeeYouinHollywood]

Good choice....I feel in love with my Macbook...I will never go back to PC

[stattic6]

Hey, Steve Jobs, we can read. :)

[key3121]

ok, but where are these instruments on Garageband?

[DonFrankos]

too bad they didn't show you can turn the music you've played into sheet music (which is a very cool thing I think)

[HesNikke]

that feature was introcuded in Garage Band 2 or 3 (i don't remember which) this video was the intro to 1.0.

[planexcrashes]

I want that program really bad now.. and maybe a better computer to go with it haa.

[Smurfster1]

Look at 0:22 in the bottom right corner, someone's bootlegging!

[dantheslag]

Why would he use Powerpoint, He uses Keynote!

[QuintinBarry]

hahaha, He used a microsoft program to make that presentation.

=)

[wataru21]

garage band is the biggest load of sh*t and i own 4 macs!

[p20]

wataru is just upset because he cant plug his skin flute into his mac

[legendarysim]

i get you he used power point to make that presentation

[Smurfster1]

nope. He used the Apple version, Keynote.

[HesNikke]

Actually, Keynote wasn't announced for another year, so this may very well have been powerpoint
