Bouncing Single Tracks from Garage Band

I have a recording i did with multiple tracks and I just want to export one section of the song. I've used other programs where you can set up parameters of where the export starts and where it ends. For some reason, I cannot figure out how to do this in gargeband as it just bounces the entire length of the song.

In GarageBand you can select the region to be bounced using the Cycle Region. Click into the ruler at top of the Track area to mark the Cycle region. Only measures marked in yellow will be bounced, when you enable the flag "Export cycle area only, or length of selected regions". Be careful, not to select any regions at all.
For exaple, when using "Share > Song to disk":

Can anyone tell me how to slow down a commerical track in Garage Band 10.00. I was able to do it quite easily before I updated, but now find I am unable to do it. Would be grateful for any help

Can anyone tell me how to slow down a commercial track in Garage band 10.00 I was able to do this in the earlier version of Garage Band quite easily and it is a good tool for being able to teach new dances, but I find I am unable to do it in the new version, which has just been updated. I would be grateful for any help.

Just found it.
Select your track with song imported from iTunes, open the Track Editor window, and in the head of the track editor and press the "Flex" marker. Make sure "Enable Flex" is set,
Then change the tempo of your project.

How do I get a voice over from garage band into Final cut x?

How do I get a voice over from garage band into Final cut x? Sorry if this is a newbie question. I have been editing in final Cut express on my MacBook Pro and just jumped to a new iMac and Final Cut ProX. Trying to record my own voice on a Yeti mic and import it as narration for a video. Thought I could simply import media but X has it greyed out.

Sharing with iTunes is OK, but it is likely to produce a file in MP3 or AAC, which can cause problems. You can create an AIFF version of an MP3 file in iTunes and use that.
To create an AIFF version, go to iTunes/Preferences and click the General Tab. Click the Import Settings button. Choose Import Using: AIFF Encoder. Then choose your track, and click FILE/CREATE AIFF Version. Use this in FCPX. Be sure to go back into iTunes Preferences and set the import options back to where you had it, so the next time you rip an CD it does not make an AIFF.

HOW DO I CHANGE THE PITCH OF A MP3 TRACK IN GARAGE BAND 10.0.02

HOW DO I CHANGE THE PITCH OF A MP3 TRACK IN GARAGE BAND 10.0.02 , i could do it in old version looking at the you tube video, now the screen looks different cant find how to do it. Can some one put up a video please
Thanks

There are three ways:
Use an AuPitch filter on the track
Or turn the audio region into a loop
Enable "Follow Tempo and Pitch" for the track and use the transposition slider (that does not always work reliably)
To add an AuPitch filter:
Enable the audio Units in the GarageBand Preferences and then open the Smart Controls.
To add the AuPitch filter audio unit, click the Audio Unit button and enlarge the Smart Controls pane by dragging the dividing line to the Track Area upwards.
click the Audio Units Brick and add the AuPitch filter:
Type the pitch change in cents (100 cents per half note step) into the text field below the pitch control.
To create a loop from the audio file:
Select the region in the track and use the command "File: Add region to Loop library".
Set the current key and tempo, name the loop, and save the loop.
Now add it from the loop browser to a new track and delete your old track. The search field in the Loop browser will help you to find the loop quickly.
You will be able to transpose the sample like a regular loo by changing the project key.

My podcasts do not show the pictures only the sound when I import them to iTunes from Garage Band. How do I get the pictures to show up in iTunes?

Well, all I can tell you is that if your file is an m4a with chapter markers, those markers having suitably sized images attached, and you drag it into the Music area of iTunes (so that it appears as a song) in List view, when you play it and then command-click on the small image in the header (next to the progress bar) you should see your embedded images.
If this isn't happening the best place to ask would be in the GarageBand forum: my own experience of GB is rather out of date and in any case I've never used it for podcasting.

I recently submitted a question re. the volume which when I send from Garage Band 2008

I recently submitted a question re. sharing music I create and send from Garage Band 2008 to iTunes 11.1.1. I create a slide show in iPhoto 2008 and export to Quicktime (latest version) and ultimately to YouTube. By the time the file gets to Quicktime, the volume has defaulted to a low level which is unacceptable. This never happened until I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard. How can I keep the volume? Must I update all of my iLife software?

export the exact length:

Exporting single tracks from a garageband project

how can i export single tracks from a garageband (6.0.5) project (and not the whole song) to be converted in aiff/wav?
thanks

Solo the track you want to export by clicking the solo (arrow)button in the Track header. Then export the song to the disk.

Cannot import voice over from garage band into FCP-X

cannot import voice over from garage band into FCP-X

Try:
Share > Send Song to iTunes. In the dialog, turn OFF compress. That will create an .aiff version of your GB project.
Alternately, you can Share to iTunes. When iTunes opens, right click on the selection and select Create AIFF version.
When iTunes opens, right click on the selection and select Show In Finder -> drag it out to a more convenient location (or option-click-drag to make a duplicate in the new location you drag to.)
Import that file into FCPX.

My father-in-law's photo library has thousand of "stock photos"(such as the guitar from garage band) surrounding his actual photos. What is the easiest way for me to clean this up for him? Karen

ThanK You.

PS We are only in town for a few more hours & I'd love to get this done for him. He's in PA & I'll never be able to walk him through this by phone:)

Can I create chapters in an audio track in Garage Band?

Can I create chapters in an audio track in Garage Band? I want to be able to find sections quickly. Or is there another more podcast oriented application that will do this?
Thanks!

Hello Jack,
You can add chapter markers to a podcast track or a movie track, not to an audio track.
Dragging any still image to the time line in GarageBand will create a podcast track: This image will be used as icon/artwork for your poadcast: See

Can't import ringtone from Garage band 6.0.5 to iTunes 11.0.4

On my Mac I can't import ringtone from Garage band 6.0.5 to iTunes 11.0.4. I can create the ringtone but when I share it vanishes instead of going into the Tones like it used to do.

Is that, how far you get?
You select, "New Project" and select a "Podcast" project template? And then you get that error message? Or do you see the File Choser dialogue, but get the error message, when you try to save the project?
That can either mean, that the "Podcast" project template is not readable, or that you cannot write to the GarageBand folder in your home folder.
Check the System Library, if the Podcast template is properly installed:
/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Templates/Projects/
Look into the folder "Library", directly on your MacintoshHD, then "Application Support", "GarageBand", "Templates" for 08. Podcast.band.
If it is not there, then your GarageBand installation is incomplete and you need to reinstall it. If the file is there, check the permissions. Can you open the file 8. Podcast.band, if you copy it to your Desktop and double click it, to open it in GarageBand?
Regards

Consolidate tracks from multiple .Band projects onto one .band project

The subject says it all:
how do I Consolidate tracks from multiple .Band projects onto one .band project?? I've got 4-5 tracks which are each seperate podcasts on one .band file. I need to add a few tracks from a different .band file (because they're podcasts that are part of the same podcast series project). How do I consolidate them? Tried copy/paste the track, didn't work. Thanks a TON!!!!!!!!

you can copy and paste, it just take a little more effort to do what you want. read the tute on rescuing files and you'll see how to move one project into another:

then create the needed tracks for the next project and move them into the right positions, etc.

Editing Voice Tracks in Garage Band

Can you/ how do you edit voice tracks in Garage Band?
In particular, editting out/ deleting pauses in spoken voice tracks.
Is Music Project of Podcasting the best for the spoken word in terms of post production capabilities?
Thanks!

If you are only doing a little voice editing then, as
HangTime says, you can do it reasonably well in Garge
band. However if you have any amount to do you would
find it easier with a proper audio editor. Audacity
is free but flaky: I would recommend spending $25 on
Amadeus II:
http://www.hairersoft.com.
There is also Amadeus Pro which is $40 and has basic
multitrack facilities, but for straightforward
editing Amadeus II will be fine. It can also open and
save in a variety of formats and make use of both
Audio Units and VST plugins.
I do all kinds of voice work, lots of it musical so I like GB.
But I also do voice overs. 30 - 60 sec. commercials, presentaions and the like, so if I can just have some modest editting capability and add jingles I'd like to just stick with GB if possible.
I've only had GB a few days now.
Thanks again.

I am trying to make a mix on Garage Band by dropping songs in the tracks from an ITunes playlist. I have done this many many times and suddenly I am unable to drop the tracks into Garage band. They swoosh right back into the iTunes playlist

Suddenly I am unable to transfer songs from iTunes to Garage Band. When I try to bring the songs over to Garage Band they will not drop into the track. They immediately go back into iTunes. I have made many mixes using GB and cannot figure out what has happened. Ive looked through system prefences, help window, etc. and cannot understand what has happened. Any advice?

either use the Media Browser in GB, or drop the actual song file into the timeline (cmnd-shift-r will reveal the file from iTunes):

How do I create a master track from my tracks in garage band?

How do I create a master track in garage band

Hi Bing,
Are you asking about the master track which controls the global settings in a GarageBand project? Here is the information from the GarageBand user manual:
GarageBand Help: Work with the master track
http://help.apple.com/garageband/mac/10.0/#gbnd5e8076d0
Work with the master track
Each GarageBand project has a master track. When you show the master track, it appears below the last track in the Tracks area.
You can control the overall playback volume of a project using the Volume slider in the control bar or on the master track. Both sliders act as a master volume control for the overall project.
Generally speaking, you should adjust the output volume to a level high enough to eliminate background noise, but not high enough to cause clipping. You can check for clipping by watching the clipping indicators in the master level meter.
You can easily add a fade-out to the end of a project, so that the sound gradually fades to silence.
When you add a fade-out, four control points are added to the master track for the project. The first control point is added 10 seconds before the end of the last region in the project, the second at 7 seconds, the third at 4 seconds, and the fourth at the end of the last region.
Show the master track
Choose Track > Show Master Track.
The master track appears below the last track in the Tracks area.
Cheers,
- Judy
