Editing songs for garage band 08 using itunes. and how to record it to a cd

i'm new to the mac. and tryed to use garageband 08 i was able to edit a few songs using itunes. but how am i able to put it on a cd. and how can i delete the others that i started. also when editing songs from itunes what version of garageband is needed magic garageband or podcast ?

Garageband is not a audio editor (although it can be used for some editing) it is a multitrack recording studio with a few extras thrown in.
Making playlist and burning CD can all be done in itunes.

  • Ridiculously simple audio editing question for Garage Band

    Ok, so this is really a fundamental
    question. It concerns editing technique.
    In analog mixing, the editor put
    the sounds to be saved in the right
    places on each of several tracks --
    narration, sound effects, lip sync,
    music, etc. The tracks were then
    all locked together and the mixer
    adjusted the volumes to either save
    or reject audio information.
    A blank master received the information
    and that was your final product,
    in sync, sprocket by sprocket, with
    the video.
    My question, then, is, how do you
    do it in digital multitrack such as
    Garage Band? Are you aiming to have
    4 or 5 tracks all level controlled
    or do you simple erase unwanted
    sound, or what exactly do you do,
    in post production? If you are going
    to do a voice over, then you have to
    do a mix at some point, not just a
    cut and paste. What's the philosophy,
    if you don't mind my asking?
    Thanks,
    Ed

    Wow... you gave me flashbacks to a movie soundtrack I scored, with separate reels of tape all synced up and whirling away for final mixdown!
    To answer your question as best I can in a paragraph or two, digital mixing is unlimited compared to analog. Whereas tape has a physical limit, you can always add another digital track (there are limitations to digital, but they are becoming harder to reach as systems become increasingly powerful). So no need to erase. Editing is also a breeze. Digital tracks are endlessly malleable, with virtually every parameter available for automation.
    Sometimes you might mix down to stems or mix everything down to a stereo master (or alternative mixes) for post production. Similarly, in post, they can deal with huge numbers of digital tracks from different sources.
    In terms of a professional workflow, Logic is the more typical choice over Garageband, and includes a number of features designed for scoring to picture: variable sample rates, frame rates, etc.
    Gain staging in digital recording is different than in analog, and it requires a different approach to achieve excellent sounding results. But the digital workflow is so much more flexible, forgiving, and economical, that it has been the death-knell for the analog workflow. Infinite bussing, routing, mixing, comping, storing, stemming... infinite possibilities, really!

  • Can I purchase different plug ins for garage band sucha amps and effects

  • HT5537 How do you import/export garage band projects using the latest version of iTunes when there is no apps in the left column to select garageband?

    I am perfectly aware of how to do this using the old version of itunes.
    however i just got a new macbook pro retina... and it came with the latest version of itunes.
    and i was trying to import/export garage band files between my ipad and mac via itunes.
    and the option for apps, that is usually on the left side where you can then select garage band from in itunes, isnt there in the new version of itunes.
    has anyone got a work around for this?
    thanks.
    nic

    Nic, for me the iTunes window looks like this, when I connect my iPad 3:
    I select the iPad in the "devices" section of the Sidebar (use: "View > Show Sidebar" if the sidebar is hidden).
    Click the "Apps" tab in the "Devices" pane.
    Scroll all the way down in the Devices pane to "File Sharing" "Apps" section.
    Then do I click "GarageBand" to select the documents in the right panel.
    Which part is different for you? Perhaps you could post a screenshot?
    Regards

  • I purchased songs from 2 different computers using itunes with the same apple id. I had 1 iPod I used for these but I just recently got an iPhone and I was wondering why it wasn't letting me put my purchased songs on my iPhone?

    You can transfer iTunes content from an iTunes library on a single computer only.
    Since these songs were purchased with the same iTunes account, you can download the song that is not in your iTunes library on the computer you will be syncing your iPhone with. Or you can download the song or songs direct on your iPhone.

    Just brought the MacPro and first time using iTune and Yes I authorized the computer. But for a few purchased songs, only 30 seconds of the song plays and for one song off an album, a pop comes up saying I need to authorized the computer, but I do this and it says it is authorized already. I click on the song to play it and this process repeat (saying it is not authorized, then saying it is already authorized)

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • Is there anyway to buy/get famous songs for Gargage Band?

    I am seeking sequenced songs from the classic rock genre, not indie or amatuer songs but famous ones from the Allman Bros., Marshall Tucker, etc.  Does such a thing exist for Garage Band?  This type of music was once availble in midi files but piracy ruined the market.  Maybe that's why I can't find such files for GarageBand.

    This is a 5th gen "video" iPod (or later full size iPod), correct?
    You can open the iPod and put the hard drive into a mini-external case that connects to USB. Then, you can assess the condition of the hard drive apart from the rest of the iPod.
    The 4th gen and earlier iPods used a drive with a different connector, and the 5th gen and current classic model use a newer type.
    On eBay, this is an example of such a case
    [1.8 ZIF LIF Hard Disk Drive iPod HDD Enclosure Case USB|http://cgi.ebay.com/1-8-ZIF-LIF-Hard-Disk-Drive-iPod-HDD-Enclosure-Case-USBW0QQitemZ200259590359QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPCC_Drives_Storage_Internal?hash=item2ea 066d8d7&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1% 7C294%3A50]
    (I don't know anything about this particular seller.)
    There are online guides for taking apart the iPod, such as
    http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Device/iPod5th_Generation%28Video%29
    If the drive is accessible in such an external case, you can probably use a third-party utility to transfer the song files off the drive, as if it was still in the iPod. Here is one such utility.

    I do not know what the Apple Store will charge. They may open the case for you without charging a fee; you'll need to ask.

  • After I download a 256 kbps song using ITunes Match, how do I get it to play on my computer at the higher bit rate once I turn ITunes Match off again?

    After I download a 256 kbps song from the cloud using ITunes Match, how do I get it to play on my computer once I turn ITunes Match off again? I have been using ITunes Match for awhile now to increase the bit rate on songs to 256 kbps.  Once I download the songs at the new bit rate, I turn off Match because I want to eliminate duplicates. Usually there is no problem. This time, however, 278 of my songs lost their file association and were unplayable unless I locate the song files within my computer.  These are songs purchased from Amazon.  In order to play them again in ITunes (Match is now off), I must locate each song file individually (I've tried to do it in bulk but have not succeeded) but now the bit rate has returned to the lower number BEFORE I matched the song.  I should have never used Match in the first place. Any ideas, anyone?

    I discovered that the NEW 256 bit file does reside on my computer, in the ITunes files (My Music/ITunes/ITunes Media/Music.  So I can bring the songs back as 256 kbps, and I have been successful now at locating more than one file at a time, by clicking on the "find other missing files" tab in the popup window.  Previously, I'd been going back to my Amazon files, and not only was I unable to bring back a 256 version, but the popup window would not locate similar files.  So while I wish ITunes Match would automatically associate the ITunes Match file, at least I can retrive the file association without hours and hours of work.

  • In the middle of downloading an update for garage band and lost the connection, now the app won't open or finish the download.  Can I reinstall the app without losing my music?

    In the middle of downloading an update for garage band and lost the connection, now the app won't open or finish the download.  Can I reinstall the app without losing my music?

    The obvious way to resolve this on a computer would be to uninstall the app, then reinstall it, however on an iOS device that would cause all the data assoicated with the app to be thrown away.
    Make sure your iTunes library has the latest updates for all your apps, then backup and restore the device. This should pull back a fresh copy of the app from your iTunes library and then give it the data from your device backup.

  • Recording Vocals On iPod Touch For Garage Band etc?

    When using the 'app' 'Garage Band' I want to be able to record people singing in a group and singles. I know there's a built in mic but, I understand this records ambient surrounding sounds. The iPod Touch doens't come with a plug in mic/headphone (headphone combination for 'monitoring') so, I was wondering which one to buy that will give great recording of vocal singing and podcasting? (I think it's called a Uni-Directional mic)
    Thank you 

    two weeks and no one gives a reply!  Oh, well, I'll answer it myself now:
    You can buy a good quality headphone lead that has a microphone built in. It's available on this website from Apple! (be careful not to let the mic rub on clothing collars or it'll pick up the sound!

  • Best Midi Keyboard for garage band?

    Hi
    is it possible to import wav samples into garage band, and then assign them to an external beat pad to create loops using an external beat pad?
    Also, what do you guys think is the best midi keyboard to get for garage band? (if the beat pad thing works, i want to get a keyboard with a beat pad on it)
    THANKS

    Here's the link for the M-Audio Keystation 49e 49-Note USB MIDI Controller Keyboard for exactly $89. Oh, and it's Plug and Play, no drivers, no AC power, just plug it into a Mac's USB port.
    (And needless to say, I am another happy 49e owner)
    Was there a particular reason you were looking at those two keyboards?

  • Mixdown Garage Band Track to iTunes - result comes out silent.

    I use garage band to contain several tracks I have recorded live. I mute and lock all tracks except the one I want to play I unmute and then choose mixdown to iTunes. The resulting file in iTunes is silent. When I go back and try to play the unmuted track in Garage Band it plays silent. Only when I double-click on the track and choose 'monitor sound' then go back to the track window does it then play in Garage Band and then I can send it to iTunes successfully. The problem is, I still haven't discovered why a track will not play or send to iTunes. What control is making this happen/not happen. Apparently the 'monitor sound' check box is not the answer because sometimes it works and sometimes not. There seems to be something else that is causing a track to be silent or to play and it is other than the mute button.
    Any clues on this?
    TIA,
    Ken

    I use garage band to contain several tracks I have
    recorded live. I mute and lock all tracks except the
    one I want to play I unmute and then choose mixdown
    to iTunes.
    There is no reason to lock a track you don't want to play. Locking is very useful if you have a lot of effects, or if it is a software track that is taxing the CPU. If none of those conditions exist, then locking is a wasted effort.
    The resulting file in iTunes is silent.
    When I go back and try to play the unmuted track in
    Garage Band it plays silent. Only when I double-click
    on the track and choose 'monitor sound' then go back
    to the track window does it then play in Garage Band
    and then I can send it to iTunes successfully.
    The monitor function should only be a factor when recording, not on playback. It is to allow you to monitor with any effects you have selected while recording. I never use this option, because I don't apply any effect until I have recorded the track and I am mixing.
    The problem is, I still haven't discovered why a track
    will not play or send to iTunes. What control is
    making this happen/not happen. Apparently the
    'monitor sound' check box is not the answer because
    sometimes it works and sometimes not. There seems to
    be something else that is causing a track to be
    silent or to play and it is other than the mute
    button.
    Any track that is muted will not play. If you have any tracks soloed, no non-soloed tracks will play. I am not sure just what you could be doing here. Make sure all tracks are not muted and not soloed. Then mute any you don't want, and mix to your satisfaction. When you are satisfied, export to iTunes should give you exactly what you hear in GB.
