Using GarageBand 3.0.4

I was just wondering if Garage Band 3.0.4 has the capability of creating ringtones for the iPhone?
I searched the garage band forum and couldn't find an answer.
Thanks,
Wes

Nope - you need the latest version included with iLife 08.

How do I use GarageBand as a amp/speaker to listen to my Electronic Drum set? I have a MIDI-USB cord already but I can't figure out how to listen to my set through the software using my computer speakers?

If you want to listen to the sounds of your drum set, you should use an audio cable and connect it to the computer's line-in, then create a real instrument track.
If you use a Midi/USB interface, you'll have to create a software instrument track and select one of GB's drumsets as the instrument. Hopefully your drumset's midi notes are mapped to the right sounds in GB.

I'm new using Logic, i've been using garageband for quite awhile now though but my question is just basic. When i want to record electric guitar while clicking the software option it brings me to alot of guitar sounds that i want to chose. I chose the twangy electric or the distorted strat but i only hear clean sounds. No matter what kind of guitar sound i chose in the library it only produces clean guitar. How can i make it sound like it supposed to? Did i miss something i should do?

This definitely has me stumped as I'm unsure as to why your guitar can be heard, but with none of the channel strips plugins applied to the sound.
On the record enabled channel strip that contains your guitar input, is the "I" button located near the "R" active? Also, if you record your guitar, can you hear the FX applied to it when you play back the recorded track?

Can I Use GarageBand 09 On My 2005 Power Mac?

I have an older G5 Power Mac, purchased in June 2005.
I just bought a copy of iLife 09 because GarageBand is very user-friendly when it comes to recording podcasts.
But...
The Power Mac G5 currently has OS 10.4.? on it, and iLife 09 requires at least OS 10.5.6. I don't even know if I can install OS 10.5 on a Power Mac purchased in June 2005.
I just want to give some folks an EASY way to record their podcasts. (They read printed publications top the blind.)
If you can tell me how to get GarageBand 09 running on this Mac... or suggest a way to make MP3s that is just as easy... I would appreciate it!
(I have tried to use GarageBand 2, which is on this computer, to do the same thing, but it only seems to export AIFF files to iTunes. I personally know how to convert the AIFF files to MP3s, but there are too many steps at this point, and the older volunteers are going to get confused.)

Is there a special version of Mac OS 10.5 that has to be installed on the Power Mac?
I put an old 10.5 disc in the drive, and it said it could not be installed. I didn't know if the computer wouldn't accept 10.5, or if it would not accept 10.5 that was from an Intel-based Mac.

We have 30 ipads at our school and it is great. We are about 850 student on my school and everyone are using the ipads. One hour at the time. (we have a booking system.)
I teach music and are using Garageband. I need to find away were my students that are working on a project can export the files and save them somewhere, so when they 7 days later open Garage band can import there song with all the correct midi-tracks. When I export the song to Icloud the song become an Mp4 file (I think). And I can import the files via Icloude.
This is because too many times the song has been sabotages during the week
Dan Sweden

Dan,
your students could store their projects in iCloud, only you would continously have to change the AppleIDs of the iPads, so each student could store the songs with their own AppleID. I don't think this will be feasable.
The other possibility would be to share the projects to iTunes and to download them to iTunes on a Mac at the end of each lesson. Does your school have Macs? This will not work with PCs.

Two previous questions may not have been as clear as I would have liked. I recently upgraded my MacBook 2008 (10.5.8) to Snow Leopard (10.6.8). With the updates came iTunes 11.1.1 and Quicktime 7.6.6. I am still using Garageband 2008 and iPhoto 2008. When

Two previous questions may not have been as clear as I would have liked. I recently upgraded my MacBook 2008 (10.5.8) to Snow Leopard (10.6.8). With the updates came iTunes 11.1.1 and Quicktime 7.6.6. I am still using Garageband 2008 and iPhoto 2008. When I create music in Garageband I usually adjust the volume and save it. Even now when I share the Garageband created files with iTunes 11.1.1, the volime I previously set in Garageband is retained. However, when I use the music to create a slide show in iPhoto 2008 and export to Quicktime 7.6.6, the volume level I previously set is lost and seems to default to a low level. The problem seems to be either in the slide show export from iPhoto 2008 to Quicktime 7.6.6 or in Quicktime itself. Is there a work around, so that I can retain the volume level I had previously set in Garageband, a volume level that seems to transfer without problem to the new iTunes. But then iPhoto 2008 (slide show) possibly or Quicktime 7.6.6 do not cooperate. Before I did the upgrade to Snow Leopard, the new iTunes and Quicktime I had no problems with the set volume being retained in the old Quicktime. The reason I need control over the volume is that all these music files are uploaded to YouTube.

Using Garageband and I cannot hear previously recorded tracks on headphones. Prefs are set to output on EMU0404 my audio device - this did work but now is not working.

I am using Garageband and I cannot hear the previously recorded tracks on my headphones. I am using an audio input/output device, EMU0404 - this was previously working fine but stopped. All cables check out OK and so does the unit - I have updated to the latest version of Garageband but this did not help. Any suggestion?

Hi Christoph,
I cannot see anything wrong with the EMU0404. This is what puzzels me ... Garageband looks OK - headphones are OK - EMU looks OK.
Thanks anyway
Paul

I would like to use GarageBand to remaster downloaded music files that are in iTunes. Poorly mastered files keep clipping and damaging my speakers. When I try to use an iTunes file as a new project, it greys out the iTunes songs so I can't select them.

As I said - look whether your original file is damaged or not. If not, I wouldn't change it and find out what in your system makes it sound like it's clipping.
Good sound file, with volume maxed out. No need to change anything.
The same song clipped - no chance to repair.

I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

Hi, I have this exact same problem. I haven't been using an iRig, just a cheap USB-jack cable. I managed to do this with the first cable I bought, but since it broke I've been unable to find a replacement that allows me to hear the drums while recording. DId you manage to get over this issue? If so I would really like to know how. Thanks and best wishes.

I keep loosing absolutely ALL sound from my mac using Garageband

I am just trying to create 1 track, something very simple nothing fancy...
I am only using Garageband NOTHING else is running, but from the start the track is orange, anyways I try to trim the length a little and in a few minutes I get that message that says something like too many vocals or instruments.
I loose all my sound, I try internet, itunes and the Garageband and get no sound what so ever!
The only way to get sound back on my mac is if i restart it or shut it down completely which is very annoying.
By the way once I loose sound in Garageband if I hit the space bar for the track to play I get a weird clicking sound, like if I were double clicking on my pad even though I am not touching the pad at all.
PLEASE HELP!!!

Yup, me too. This has been happening ever since I got MB 1.5 year ago. No fix yet.

I have an 11" Macbook Air. When I use Garageband it opens in a window so large that the bottom corner is not accessible so I can't decrease the window so that I can see the top and bottom of the window at the same time. Any suggestions?

When I use Garageband the window is so large that I can't reach the bottom corner to decrease the window to fit inside the display so that I can see the top and bottom of the window at the same time.
Any suggestions?

You can reduce the window by grabbing any edge or corner. You don't have to use the bottom right anymore.
You could also temporarily move the dock to the left/right so you can reach the bottom.

I am using GarageBand on my iPad 3

I am using GarageBand on all my devices (iPad 3, iMac - Lion 10.7- & iPhone 4). I produced a sond on my ipad3, saved it, renamed it and saved it again and now it won't open, share to iTunes, Facebook or iCloud. It just in "render" mode. I have plenty of memory on my iPad and computer . What is the cause and remedy? Thank you

I have this exact issue. However, I tried the Loopy app after after GB crashed and received an error message saying that core audio is not available. Rebooting resolves but the problem repeats. Any suggestions as to fixes? Btw; I have no such problem with Ipad 2 and ios 7.

Do I have to use GarageBand's templates?

Hi.
I want to use GarageBand to create podcasts, but do I have to use their templates for design? I have a website already and GarageBand's templates, though nice, don't match. Can I create my podcast files and store them on my own server, and use a link that GarageBand generates to submit to the iTunes directory? And if I have a link on my page that asks you to subscribe to the URL that GarageBand creats (in the Subscribe button) will that work?
Thanks,
Scott

Oh, sorry. Yes, I was referring to the iWeb templates.
So far I've been saving to disk (and of course, iWeb publishes all of the websites that I've made, and some of them are photoshoots with a lot of images...takes a long time), but the folder structure is different from the navigation that I have on my website, so I have to do some mods to my server structure.
Including the RSS code is a little hairy, but I think I've got it figured out. I'll keep experimenting.

Has anyone used Garageband on a new MBP?

very interested in knowing the limitations. How many tracks of software instruments/loops can you get?
Has anyone tried playing their songs made on a G5 Quad or hi end G5 ( with many effects and tracks) on the MPB? and what are the problems, limitations? Gliches?

I use garageband all the time to record guitar tracks/vocal tracks. It really works great with my MBP. I use a presonus firebox with it too and all works really nicely; every once in awhile it will fall out of sync, but not much anymore. I've loaded up only about 7-9 tracks at any given time and it will play them all with no problem. The CPU usage graph doesn't even come close to getting pegged either! I found that better performance came when I chose the small buffer size. I think that if you plan on having ton of instruments at the same time, Garageband is probably not the way.
So far I haven't found any limitations to Garageband. It does everything I want it to - record stuff. I haven't used a Quad or G5 with Garageband so I don't know if they would be faster/better. My MBP works great though.

I am looking for educational posters from Apple or for Garageband, if they exist. I'll be teaching a new class for middle school using Garageband next year. Thanks!

first i was wondering what everyone thinks about macbooks compared to let's say another pc like hp,dell,etc.... i have been told that i'd have to be dumb to get a machine with windows vista on it,so that is why i have turned my focus to a macbook because i have heard they are pretty good and worth it...
I personally like my MacBook better than any other computer I have ever owned. I like being able to use windows when I need to but not being tied to it. My wife bought an HP with Vista and it doesn't seem to bad. Lots of updates at least one a week. Mostly graphic card drivers update.
also is it true that if you upgrade let's say the memory,hard drive,etc it won't be covered in the warranty/apple care plan??
Only two things you can upgrade on a MacBook is the Hard drive and Memory. It will not void the warranty. This is apples word on it. DIY Warranty Info
I would just like to ask for people's opinions please on purchasing one of these i am currently a senior in college and will be using it next year for grad school,need to replace the one i currently have...
Be sure you can live with the graphics. If you do a lot of graphics work you might want to consider the MacBook Pro. I use my MacBook for video editing using Final Cut Express HD and it works well. The MB is also not very good for gaming if you are into that. The integrated chip set doesn't work well with 3D games.
also any other ideas on getting iwork or office, a hard plastic case or a skin,thanks alot for anyone's input it is greatly appreciated.... i am looking to get one once leopard comes out thanks!!
Depending on your school may be a factor in what you choose. I use iWork and it is pretty good. You could also try NeoOffice or Open Office. They are good also. Office is supposed to be coming out with a new Mac version but not sure yet how it will work.
Be sure to ask for the student discount when you purchase the computer and software. It adds up.
