How do I import audio from a website to Garage Band?

Brand new to Garage Band (on the Mac, not iPad).  I am trying to import audio from a website with an .mp3 extension to Garage Band.  I'd like to extract just a piece of the audio, so I assume GB was the best way to do it.
How do I import the audio to GB?  If GB is not the best way to do it, any other suggestions?  I need the piece of audio for a presentation I'm giving.
Thanks.

Do you have the audio as an mp3 file already? Then just drag it into GB's timeline. If you have to capture it first, there's several browser plugins that do it or general programs like Audio Hijack or WireTap.

  • How do I import audio from a minidisc to use in iMovie?

    I have a Minidisc with some audio of my band recorded directly from the mixing desk at a gig. I want to try to mix this audio in with some DV footage taken with a camcorder. Is there a way of getting this Minidisc audio onto my Macbook so that I can then import it to iMovie? Do I need an digital audio interface or some kind of conversion software? For instance, Wiretap Studio or Audio Hijack.

    hey there 12frets,
    they can & sometimes do record the audio on the same tape as video, but usually not film... & as Bengt said they also record onto a separate device always w/ film. generally for music videos the audio is "laid back" onto a Master video/audio tape & then the visuals are shot on film, though that is changing w/ the increased use of digital media/formats for audio & video. that's where the clapperboard came in to provide the film editor w/ a visual cue(closing the clapper) to synch the recorded audio(sound of the clapper) w/ the film.
    there are lots of options for mics & recording devices. i have an Yamaha AW-16G & recorded bands live to 8 tracks then mixed it down to stereo & mixed that into an FCE project w/ video from 3 cams. i took the audio for the 8-trk recording from the house mixer's input channels direct outs-set my owl levels & EQ. it did take some time to do the mixdown. get some decent project studio monitors-i use Alesis M1 mkii active, but Event, M-Audio & Samson are also viable. i also use visual cues from the 3 cams to synch everything up as well as i integrated room sound from my main cam(locked down static wide shot) to add a bit of realism & crowd noise/appreciation- also juiced that up w/ an applause sound effect from Sound Dogs. i've been in audio & video for over 30 yrs & am constantly reading & studying to keep up w/ the technology & various techniques- so Google is your friend for researching & learning. Videomaker mag, DV Mag & Creative Mac(website) are some good places to begin.
    good luck.

  • How do I import audio from a dvd?

    There is a song on a dvd that I want to import into iTunes. I searched all through iTunes store, amazon & the movie companies website, but there is no soundtrack available for sale.... or by the musicians anywhere.
    Is there a program that will record any audio that I play on my mac, and then I can import that audio into iTunes?

    It's currently unclear if actually copying a DVD is illegal. What is illegal under the Digital Milennium Copyright Act, is breaking the encryption on commercial DVDs (a necessary first step in copying). Recording the audio as it is played by your computer (what is sometimes called the analog loophole) is still, apparently, covered under the older fair use laws. So, as long as you're just recording the sound for your personal use, I think you're okay. Burn it to CD and sell or distribute it and you've crossed the line

  • How do I import audio from a portable cassette player

    Save the file from Gmail onto your computer and add it to iTunes.  How you save from Gmail is a Gmail question (their own support pages), not an iTunes question.

    iTunes will only import music from your phone that was purchased from the iTunes store.  To transfer music from other sources you have to use 3rd party software, such as PhoneView.

  • How do i import video from my go pro to i movies

    How do I import video from my go pro hero 4 to I movies

    What model MacBook Pro do you have? On my late 2011, I used to use a Mini DisplayPort/Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter to get video and audio from my Mac to my television. I used this adapter from Monoprice. Worked great - I just no longer use it because I bought a 27" monitor.
    You can also use AirPlay mirroring if you've the right MBP and an Apple TV - but the wired method works, too.

  • How do i import video from my sony cx130 to imovie

    how do i import video from my sony cx130 to imovie?

    Follow the steps below to troubleshoot if the computer does not recognize the USB connection from the camcorder.
    Turn off the camcorder.
    Ensure the USB cable is connected securely to the camcorder.
    Ensure the other end of the USB cable is connected securely to the USB port on the computer. NOTE:  Connection through a USB hub is not supported. 
    With the exception of the mouse, keyboard, and camcorder, remove any other USB connected devices from the computer.
    Turn on the camcorder.
    On the camcorder LCD screen, touch the computer or hard disk icon.
    If the issue is still not resolved, connect the USB cable to a different USB port on the computer.
    If the issue is still not resolved, try uninstalling and reinstalling the USB driver.
    If the issue is still not resolved, test the USB port on the computer by connecting a different USB device.

  • HT201302 how can i import photos from iphone to pc

    how can i import photos from iphone to pc?

    For photos taken with the iPhone or saved from emails/websites then on a PC you should be able to use the Windows Camera Wizard or just copy them via Windows Explorer (there is more info on this page).
    For photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPhone, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.
