can you explain the sound i'm having a problem with the sound like when i plug in my ear phone and turn on the monitor while i'm talking or playing music i will hear myself and the music but when i unplug my head phones i can't hear the music anymore or myself even when the monitor is turned on why is that? and this still happened when i plug back in my head phones!!! it only works again when i just quit and reopen the program so yeah why is that?

[murry537]

@meowey55 You shouldn't have the monitor turned on for a microphone while having headphones unplugged because you will get feedback right away. The track default is to have feedback protection on which will lower the volume if feedback is detected.

The other thing that might be happening is the Mac tracks volume levels separately for heaphones vs the system audio, so it might be turned up for the headphones, but turned down for the system.

i don;t have the ducking :(

[murry537]

Either you have an older version that doesn't have that feature, or it's just not turned on, which you can do from the "control" menu at the top.

Do you know how to set up the Korg NanoPad with Garageband? I can get it to play certain notes, but I can't figure out how to edit the controls. I'd appreciate any help.

[murry537]

I've never used it. Sorry. I use a midi keyboard though, and it's just plug and play. Very little work involved.

Hey Murry,

I'm new to Garage Band, I would like to say thanks for taking the time to give a good entry level explanation of garage band, you are really helping us newbies who want to get more out of this software starting with a good foundation, you have really helped me, Thanks, good job.

[murry537]

Well, I'm admittedly biased, but yes, I MUCH prefer Apple systems.

[Machster10]

These kind of tutorials are a good use of You Tube. Thanks for the schoolin'.

How do I make a intro? I have the 3.0 version.

[mowgli773]

hey my track editor is different from the one u showed. it is the newest version i just got the upgrade. if i want to edit the pitch how can i do it?

[bodleiano]

the best and clearest intro to gb. thank you! your attention to detail and care are appreciated... please do an intro for loop-based projects using the virtual instruments that come with it.

[Micben123]

Where's tutorial 3? Would love to see it, but I can't seem to find it anywhere...

[coddaam]

is it just me or should you be able to overlay track pan and track pan?

[MrAtomickitten]

Thanks for the tuts. I reckon a really quick demo of the change you've just made would help reinforce what's going on. Esp. with ducking and panning.
