Good tutorials for GarageBand since I'm freaking out?

I want to make my own music entirely using loops (pop, electronic mainly) on GarageBand, but it feels like I hit a speed bump every time I'm on a creative roll. I just don't understand anything about it, and it's really really stressing me out. Are there any good tutorials? Thanks.

Have you already tried the videos in the GarageBand Help?  http://help.apple.com/garageband/index.html#button-0
Each of the basic lessons has an introductory video.
For more in-depth help you may want to look at Edgar Rothermich's graphical enhanced manuals, see:

  • Good tutorials for objective C?

    Can anyone here refer me to some good tutorials for learning objective C? (targeting iOS)
    Thx.

    It really depends what you want to do. If you want to program native business applications for iOS, AS3 is obviously not the right choice. If you want to do Rich-Media crossplatform applications, you're much better of with AS3 than developing a couple of native applications.
    I'd argue it doesn't really matter if you're developing cross-platform or not; AS3/AIR for iOS not only becomes much more work than need be, the app is much less stable and presentable as a professional level app. (and I'm developing multimedia app, not a business application, BTW). I guess after all is said and done, I really feel like I'm building a house of cards with AIR for iOS.
    When AIR requires using and manipulating stageWebView just so you can have native scroll behavior, when you have to rely on multiple third-party ANEs for basic iOS UI which may or may not get updated as each new OS rolls out, when Adobe ignores or brushes aside important bugs or dismisses the inclusion of core iOS features simply because they aren't also available on Android....
    I really like the Actionscript language. It's really easy to understand and great for those of us without a degree in Computer Science. But Adobe needs to get serious about supporting iOS.

  • Good tutorials for a kid to work through

    My son who is almost 12 is interested in learning flex.  I've started him on some very basic stuff but I'm still learning myself and could probably end up teach some bad habits.   So,  I was wondering, If any of you could suggest some good tutorials that would be simple enough for an 11 yr old to understand.  He does read at a high school level but has no programming knowledge.  
    Thank you!

    Just connect to itunes and restore the ipod, when the restore is complete set it as a new ipod. Your problem must be resolved.

  • Good tutorials for Automator

    Hi there,
    I was wondering if any of the Automator community could point me in the direction of some good tutorials..
    I have a couple of tasks that I want to automate, though I think they require some Apple script at some point too.
    1) I run a localhost. I would like to write a automator task that sets up new vHost (based on me entering some values ie: Name and root directory), updates my Hosts file and restarts Apache.
    2) I get a lot of deleted domains list sent to me each morning. Im wanting to forward that email to my Wordpress install and auto add posts.. Automator can be set to schedule hey?
    3) I would like to be able to publish my clients Analytics reports as they come into my mail box. The reports would need to be published to a different location on the server, so clients would only see their report. I know that Google does have a scheduled email sent, though Im want to set up a one-stop shop, for getting this information.
    Do these things sound too far fetched for Automator?
    Cheers,
    Phil

  • What are good tutorials for learning the 3d interface in Photoshop?

    I'm looking for some good tutorials that will orient me to the basics of working in 3d in PS (primarily concerned with learning how to control the camera and also how to use 3d layers).
    Thanks!
    Daniel

    As it happens, if you ever watch 'The Photoshop Guys' on Kelby TV, they nearly all use MBPs exclusively.  I believe one of them also uses a desktop — maybe Cory Barker because he does all the 3D stuff.  I'd worry that a laptop that does not specify video RAM, is using onboard video, and not a dedicated video card.  The GPU is an important component regards Photoshop performance, so make sure you get it right.

  • Good tutorials for making objects drop or fly in?

    I've been using the Adobe CS for years now, but just getting started using After Effects.
    I'm trying to make a video where 2D images/objects appear to drop in from above, stay put for a second, and then fly out into the background. I figured tutorials for something this simple would be all over the web, but I've yet to find one exactly like this.
    So far I'm assuming it will be something easy like using the scale effect? Any tips or advice are much appreciated!

    Just pick a property like position then hold down the alt or option key and click the stop watch or with Position selected go to Animation Add Expression.
    Did you try adding the animation preset to a layer in the timeline? Save the animation preset to your animation presets file and then select the layer, position it where you want it to end, then select Animation>Apply Animation Preset> and browse to the preset I sent you. Works with 2D and 3D layers.
    The drop in and fly back animation that you want to do will work better with 3D layers and this Animation Preset could easily be modified to move in Z instead of fall out of frame.
    It doesn't sound like you are very familiar with expressions. This one is fairly complex. It uses the in point and out point of the layer along with value at time to create the motion. If this looks like greek to you you'd better explain more about what you want to do with the expression.
    sif = effect("slideIn Frames")("Slider");
    sof= effect("slideOut Frames")("Slider");
    // find in and out point
    inTime = sif * thisComp.frameDuration;
              if (effect("Match SI SO")("Checkbox") == 0) {
              outTime = sof * thisComp.frameDuration;
              else if (effect("Match SI SO")("Checkbox") == 1) {
              outTime = inTime;
    // Fix  layer size when scaled
    sf = scale - [100, 100];
    xSize = width + (width * sf[0]/100);
    ySize = height + (height * sf[1]/100);
    realSize = [xSize, ySize];
    // Set Positions
    spx = 0 - realSize[0] + realSize[0]/2 ;
    rstx = value [0];
    rsty = value[1];
    epy = thisComp.height + realSize[1] - realSize[1]/2;
    // create movement
    freq = effect("bounce Frequency")("Slider");
            amplitude = effect("bounce Amplitude")("Slider");
            decay = effect("bounce Decay")("Slider");
        posCos = Math.abs(Math.cos(freq*time*2*Math.PI));
        y = amplitude*posCos/Math.exp(decay*time);
    moveIn = Math.min(linear(time,inPoint,inPoint + inTime,spx  ,rstx-y));
    moveOut = Math.min(linear(time,outPoint - outTime,outPoint - thisComp.frameDuration,rsty ,epy));
    [moveIn, moveOut]

  • Any advanced video tutorials for garageband?

    I'm suprised I didn't find this topic in this forum but does anyone know where we can find some garageband tutorials that explain beyond the apple sites basics? Like proper mixing, recording, editing techniques. How to install stuff to use on garageband, perhaps even a video on setting up your mixer properly to get it to work properly with garageband.
    Anything along those lines would be so helpful.
    Thanks.

    I think the problem here is the people that may have used Video tutorials don't need to be here asking questions. And then there are some of us here just to help answer questions. And then people that are looking for a quick answer.
    I think your best bet is Google. But if you have any specific questions don't hesitate to ask. Good answers almost no waiting.

  • Can Anyone Recommend Any Good Tutorials For A Beginner?

    Hi,
    I just purchased Pro Logic 9 and was wondering if anyone knows of any good lessons/tutorials to help a first time user of the Pro Logic series. Im excited to get into this program and record but it is so powerful that it is a bit overwhelming. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    I agree with JG99.
    +1 macprovideo
    I've seen both the lynda and macprovideo logic training. Don't get me wrong the Logic training at lynda is ok for the basics. The macprovideo ones are excellent and go much further. So I could learn in depth how all the instruments, like the EXS24 sampler, Ultrabeat drum machine, synths and plugins work and how to use them. There are proper whole tutorials dedicated to mixing and mastering. For me and my studio buddies macprovideo for final cut, logic and now the photoshop titles has saved us countless hours and a lot of hair!

  • Screen lag when plugged for power- since new updates came out..

    I am having some issues with screen lag-locked up screen- not moving screen, since last updates. If I pull out the power plug, it works good , screen moves fast. does anyone have same issue or solution for this issue???
    CAN someone help?

I was having a similar situation where the phone wouldn't respond to my touch while plugged in when I was using a different transformer plug with my original usb cable. It wasn't until I found my original transformer plug. I never saw the issue with the car charger or an I-Go wall charger.

  • Quicktime Export Settings for Keynote Import? Keynote freaks out 16:9 clips

    I have 1440 x 1080i HDV footage imported into the latest FCP that is getting exported into Keynote. I notice that most of the exports and imports into Keynote end up doing weird stuff, like reducing the resolution, or turning it into a 4;3 format even though it is 16:9 on the export.
    I don't care about the file size with Keynote, so I don't want to compress it any further than how HDV ruins footage to begin with.
    So far the only thing that has worked is exporting it as a ProRes file.
    Do any of you have recommendations on individual clip FCP export settings/workflows?
    Thanks!

    Yes, the Keynote presentation slides/project is set for 1920x1080, the reason is I'm outputting via a high lumens projector that natively projects at 1920x1080p.
    Even though a Macbook Pro does not have a screen that size, the Macbook can send out even larger than 1920x1080, but I am limiting the output to the native screen res of the projector.

  • Any good tutorial for starting J2ME ?

    Dear all, I have written J2SE and J2EE for several years. But I am new to J2ME. I found that there are many packages of J2ME so that i don't how to start to learn it. Do anyone know some good tutorials for me to start J2ME?
    Thanks a lot.

    This is not a reply, rather an additional question (since I havent figured out how to add a question to the forum). I need to program in J2ME on an embedded processor. I need to know what processors are man enough to support J2ME i.e. what are the hardware constraints. I have searched through the web and cannot find ANYTHING on this, and yet I thought the whole idea of J2ME was that it was portable to various embedded hardware platforms. Can I use a 8051 variant for example or does it need something much celeverer?
