Using garageband as a sampler

Is there anyway to use garageband as a Sampler?
what equipment is going to be needed?
Also i am trying to record my bass into garageband
do i need a usb audio interface?

do i need a usb audio interface?
maybe. before you spend any real money, buy a cheap ($5) adaptor to plug your 1/4" guitar cable into the 1/8" jack on your Mac. Then decide of the sound you get is acceptable to you.

I'm using GarageBand 10.0.1. Do the built-in drum tracks only come in mono format, or is it possible to make them true stereo (i.e. Left and Right channels outputing different signals, to sound like the kit has been panned across the stereo field)?

All the Drum Kits available for GarageBand are mixed in stereo.
Logic provides the same 18 Drum Kits also as "Producer Kits", which are multi-track outputs,. Each Drum Kit Piece (Kick, Snare, HH, etc) and also room mice and overheads are routed to individual channel strips.
Here is a screenshot of one Drum Kit in Logic Pro X with individual Channels Strips. Each Channel Strip can be loaded with individual effects (compressor) and adduced with individual sends, etc.
What that means is that all the Drummers are professionally recorded and sampled with individual mics. The Stereo Drums Kits are just "stereo mix-downs" for easier handling and less CPU demand. I explain all the details about the Drummer ecosystem in my graphically enhanced manual "GarageBand X - How it Works"
Hope that helps

EXS - GarageBand Samples Issue

using Logic 7.1.1 and GarageBand 2.02
There is a curious oddity with some of the factory EXS samples. I believe,
originally I installed - updated everything correctly.
Short-story: basically the logic factory "clean electric guitar" - cannot
find the samples... It appears to be looking for:
YTEGUITA1X03.aif
Yet the only sample is in the GarageBand samples folder ( and does not have
the .aif)
YTEGUITA1X03
- further - The GarageBand EXS same instrument loads correctly - so I am
reluctant to simply change the names of all these files...
- in addition all these Main Library files and folders are currently set to
read only... Is that correct?
- I imagine if I want to, I could duplicate the files and add the .aif
extension...
Q: I'm curious if everybody else's clean electric guitar sample has this
issue - or if something was weird with my install?

Missed your following posts...If you have used EXSmanager, and fixed all these issues with all audio files (EXSManager will fix the extensions for these files) and sampler instruments so the references are all resolved according to EXS manager you may need to go to project manager,
Scan the folders where your instruments and samples are
Save projMgr data
select your problem EXS instruments.
Find unresolved file references for selected items
EXSmanager does not modify Project manager data, the destinations of the samples is stored in the exs instruments. This will basically update your PM data for your sampler instruments-referring to the destinations written in by EXSManager. Also, many of the files and folders in your non-user Library folder are owned by the system and may not have been modified because yu do not have the rights to do so. It is best to have 1 directory with all your sample library-so some copying may need to be done. If you don't use GB or the GB instruments in Logic you can use EXSManager to handle all the instruments and moving, etc-but don't modify the files in the Library folder if you use the GB stuff-All the GB stuff is actually Logic synths/samples (engines) with a different GUI, in case you haven't noticed. So you need to decide whether you need GB support and then you should create 1 Large directory for your samples/instruments and EXSManage away-then update/refresh the PM database. If you hit the right settings in EXSManager this will be quite painless.

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.

Question on "Master Detail page using ADF" sample

I downloaded the "Master Detail page using ADF" sample application. I modified editDepartment.jsp page to include the Commit button as follows:
<html:submit property="event_Commit">Save and Commit</html:submit>
When I go to edit a department record and click on the new "Save and Commit" button, I SQLed the DEPARTMENTS table and noticed that the edits were not commited. I also restarted the embedded OC4J server and still get the same results. For some reason, the department view object contains the modification but the entity object doesn't. Why?

Scott,
My colleague suggested a workaround, which is to explicitly include the detail table's id in the master table's partialTargets list. So, for example, in MasterDetailDP.uix, changing:
<table model="${bindings.DepartmentsView1}"
       id="DepartmentsView111"
       partialRenderMode="multiple"
       partialTargets="_uixState">to:
<table model="${bindings.DepartmentsView1}"
       id="DepartmentsView111"
       partialRenderMode="multiple"
       partialTargets="_uixState EmployeesView312">...will cause the detail table to be updated when sorting the master table.
There is some question about whether sorting a table should actually cause the currently selected row to change - we're still discussing this point.

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.
