I need some good electric guitar sounds for Garageband

Garageband just comes with a few electric sounds. I need some software that includes a lot of guitar sounds, and I'd like to know if there are any of the Jam Packs that have this. I know I can buy software like Realstrat that will do this, but getting them to interface with Garageband can be tough. Anybody know if a Jam Pack has what I'm looking for?

Hi Pete,
Have you tried crafting the guitar sounds Garageband?
I ask because I frequently read posts where people are asking where they can find sounds and yet it has been my experience that finding the right loop is simply a beginning point.
Ultimately if you want to enjoy the full capability of Garageband the sounds will have to be customized and shaped to fit what it is you are trying to communicate in a particular music project.
In other words use Garageband to make the sounds do whatever it is you want them too.
Good luck!

Help! what are some good free converting softwares for 5th g

I need some good converting softwares for my 5th gen ipod. i cant find anything to convert my mpegs to mp4 for my gen 5 ipod

I have a Windows machine and I bought Quicktime Pro and it works for the short .mov files my digital cameras create. I tried a bunch of "free" DVD conversion programs, including Videora for iPod with mixed results (I couldn't get Videora to work). Finally, I bought PQDVD for iPod (http://www.pqdvd.com). It was expensive when you compare it to free software ($39.95) BUT you can stick a DVD (that you own of course) in and press a couple of buttons and it makes a video file. The nicest part is it makes very small files (275MB average). It also does it twice to three times as fast as anything else I tried. The movies look and play great on the iPod (except you have to go all the way to the end to stop them, hmmm). So if I pay myself $10 an hour, I'll get my money back pretty quickly. In one night, I got 4 movies moved over to my iPod, no hassles.

Where can I find some good children's games for cheap?

I just got an old second generation iMac G3 for my son (4). It is running OSX 10.1. I would like to put some games on it for my son to play. Previously he had a PC running Windows 98 and a bunch of kids games like Reader Rabbit and other education yet entertaining programs. However, none of them have Mac install versions on the CD's we got. I am wondering if anyone knows a good place that sells some good quality educational games for children in the <$5 each price range.
I know there is new stuff on Apple.com for $20+ each, and I will probably get some of those, but the problem with the new ones is that they are going to require OSX 10.2.8+ and I do not have and extra copy of that.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

I've had good experiences with them.
Another place you might want to try is Purplus Software.

What are some good visual effects programmes for the Mac?

I have been editing with Final Cut Express since 05 and I want to be able to do fancy visual effects I cannot do with Final Cut Express so I put it to you; what are some good visual effects programmes for the Mac? I know there is Adobe After Effects but I am wondering if there are any others, including from Apple.

Or does it? Because by purchasing Motion, you also get the Pro Res codecs and Animation. Will FCE be able to work with them if they're in your QT library? I think so but am not positive. I'd check with the FCE gurus in that discussion forum.
So I half answered my own question. FCE will respect the alpha channel in a PR 4444 file. But from the limited testing I was able to to, there doesn't seem to be a way to export it ( or other flavors of PR) as a PR sequence. It renders as AIC, which is fine. FWIW, it can always be exported as Pro Res via QT Conversion, but why bother?
However, I now have to say – despite what I said in my first post – that I'm not 100% percent certain that the all the codecs will be available by buying Motion. I'm like 95% sure, the more I think about it. But I have too much NLE and graphics "stuff" on my systems to test it conclusively.

Where can i download jam pack 4 (orchestral sounds) for garageband 6.0.5. please. I have an air book maverick OSX 10.9.4. Thanks

This JamPack is no longer sold separately by Apple. You could search for the boxed retail version of the JamPack at eBay or Amazon.
But it is much more economic to install MainStage 3 instead. You can buy it at the Mac App Store. MainStage 3 will install all five JamPacks for a price much less than the price of a single JamPack used to be. Afterwards the JamPacks will work with Logic and GarageBAnd as well.
Just launch MainStage after installing and use the command "MainStage > Download additional content" and select the JamPacks you want to install.

Need some help with guitar setup...

jeez, never thought i'd be asking a question like this after playing for like 20 years, but i need some help with a guitar setup for mac. i'm gonna list out a lot of crap here that prolly doesn't affect anything at all, but here goes.
Imac 17inch G4 - latest updated OS X... 10.4, or 5, or whatever. garageband 3.0
digitech gnx-3
alesis sr-16
sure mic's
yamaha e203 keyboard
here's the setup:
yamaha is on its own on a usb uno midi interface, sure's connected to gnx's xlr port, alesis connected to gnx's jam-a-long input, '87 kramer vanguard connected to gnx's guitar input. currently running headphones out on gnx to line in on mac.
here's the problem:
everything works beautifully, but my guitar sounds like crap. if i plug headphones into the gnx, it sounds beautiful. that makes me think its some kind of level issue between the gnx's output, and the mac's input, but nothing seems to fix it.
by sounding like crap, i mean way too much bass. sound is muddy, blurry, not crisp... aka crap. i've tried altering both output and input on mac and gnx, and i cant get a combination that works. the gnx has a s/pdif out, can the mac accept that as input? might that help? short of running the gnx to my marshal half stack and mic'ing that, anyone have any suggestions, or use a similar setup?
any help would be greatly appreciated!

anyone? ... any suggestions? I think it might be an issue with the gnx pre-amping the signal as it goes out, and then the mac amping it on the way in, giving me a buttload more signal than i need, but since i cant find a happy level, i'm not really sure. i really dont want to resort to mic'ing my marshall... even with the volume almost off, my jcm900 is WAY too loud for apartment use. its not like i really NEED the guitar to sound perfect, i only use garageband to sketch out ideas for songs between myself and bandmates, but its really annoying to not have my customary crisp distortion. my bass player keeps telling me to use the built in amps, but, not to dis a practically free program, but the built in amps blow, at least after 10 years of marshall tube amplification they do. if anyone has any suggestions that might be helpfull on how i might resolve this, i would be your best friend for life and go to all your birthday parties

Good Acoustic guitar sound

Hey all. I am a fairly seasoned Garageband user. When I record songs with distortion, the "Arena Rock" effect works great, the problem is I can not seem to find, or manipulate using all of the possible effects, a really great, solid, and bright acoustic guitar effect. Any suggestions on settings I might use to achieve this effect? Note: I am not trying to emulate an acoustic guitar with my electric, rather have a really full sounding non-distortion electric sound for slower songs and verses, etc.

2 grand LOL Well that's out of the reach of most of the folks here. I still say just get a good clean amp sound, be it from the GB amp sims, or elsewhere, and back off the guitar volume a bit and it'll clean right up. I like to use a 2 pickup guitar, and then blend the bridge and neck pickups to get the right twang.

Muffled electric guitar sound

I am using Garageband 3 with a Tascam US-122L input for my fender stratocaster guitar. I've been trying to record my guitar recently and I just can't get a good sound out of Garageband, it just sounds very muffled. The kind of sound I'm looking for is basically an acoustic guitar, but I don't have a mic to record with, so I want to try and emulate it in garageband, but I can't seem to get any good sound at all. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

The best way to get an acoustig guitar sound is ... to use an acoustic guitar. Emulations with an electric one are always a compromise. The presets in GB like "Acoustic Guitar Echoes" are made to enhance the sound coming from an acoustic, so they won't help you a lot, I guess.

I need a good portable battery backup for my iphone5. Needs to be small and able to recharge the phone at least twice before it runs out of juice. Any suggestions?

I need a small portable battery charger for my iphone5. It seems to eat the battery quickly and there are times when I am away from a outlet to plug into. Like I said it needs to be small, and rugged, as it will be out in the boat or out in the woods while hunting

Bought the same SRW2048 thinking it should be a good upgrade for the unmanaged 10/100 switch, but within the first two weeks, I need RMA. Then the new switch is starting to have similar problem. Some are trying to blame some network packets causing the switch to reboot. I have a pretty simple default configuration (plug it in, assign IP and plug in workstations!)
Here's my laundry list:
- Time is off, never come back to the right one and SNTP never really works. When the switch reboots, I get back to the 00/00/00 and it's a pain to the time right.
- I see ports going online and offline and lots of them. I know there are nobody at the office, so it has got to be the switch.
We do not have any complex network set up, just one SRW2048 to a ~30 node s network. One one side is the clients and on the upside is a pix firewall.
It's so hard to setup each time the switch reboots, the whole office scramble and lost work.
If you guys have an answer to why ports go offline/online, etc... or why the switch does a cold start, please share.

Electric Guitar solution for the mini

I finally found something that looks like it will fit the bill of hooking up my electric guitar to the mini without spending $300-$1200 just for the recording box. M-Audio very recently released the JamLab for Mac and PC, it seems to be around $60 shipped from various online retailers. So if you are thinking about, or were thinking about doing this with your mini, check out the JamLab here.
It actually does more than I wanted, I already have a Korg Toneworks PX4 Guitar processor for effects and on-the-road practice, but if you don't own one of these and want something that not only records from your 1/4" guitar cable plug, but also does effects/stompbox processing, this may be it for you as well.

I only want something to plug into GarageBand too. $300-$1200 is just a bit much to ask for something that is really just a USB or FireWire soundcard when all you just want to do is mess around as a hobbyist in GarageBand.
Install the Developer Tools for Tiger, you will get AU Lab, a very powerful audio utility that takes full advantage of Core Audio's power. This image from the conceptual development phase on the developers site doesn't even do the finished app in action justice, and the short blurb written there shows that the person writing it up doesn't even know what the app can do. This is a better description--AU Lab is very efficient and has a very high performance and low overhead audio engine capable of supporting multiple outputs, and advanced routing features such as send buses and sidechain buses and even that doesn't even tell you all that it is. Imagine full control of your audio subsystem, a virtual audio cable, real time effects processing, multiple generators, audio sidechains, audio busses, outputs control and remapping and midi mapping and effects. Low level raw access to the audio subsystem in your Mac! Take control of the input/output ports on core audio devices and remap them and simulate surround sound and other cheeky things.
You can pull off the same tricks as Audio Hijack. It was, after all, to show developers what is possible to do with audio on OS X.
If the GT Player Express software bundled with JamLab won't allow you to record because they want you to buy an upgrade for the software, I'll just rip the audio streams passing through OS X direct to an audio file on the disk with Audio Hijack or AU Lab.
Happy GarageBanding!

THANK YOU/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png so the tolerance makes it not care so much about the gradations in color? what else is tolerence good for?
I have a cleaner copy now after someone suggested GIMP, so played with it last night - though couldn't figure out transparency - that was clear on converter- just not cooperative till these wonderful directions.
So now I know how to do it without messing with the pic, and with messing with it - both good lessons and got a bit brighter color out of the deal.
many thanks for the straightforward and clear directions, they worked perfectly/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png extra strars for you/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png
