What's up with Garageband 4 (iLife '08)????

I just loaded my new GarageBand '08 and found that it takes an extremely long time to load if at all. I did all of the upgrades , uninstalled the new app and repeated the process again. I found that if I wait until all of the categories are loaded on the top bar, then I could click on the GarageBand icon for a 2nd time and "voila!" it opens. THIS SHOULDN'T BE! What's up with that?? I even discarded the prefs - no change.
help..
thanks

What is happening with garageband??

Hello all -
HELP! I just got finished with a 6-minute song on Garageband, using several of the jam packs and multiple tracks, and now, on the LAST beat of the song, Garageband is adding a "sustain" to the last piano chord. Instead of just a sharp release as I played it. Anyone experienced this? So the chord just keeps echoing on forever...

Did you inadvertently stop recording before you released the sustain pedal? If it is the sustain, a workaround would be to try recording a tiny sustain pedal down-up right after your preexisting region on the same track, and see if that clears the pedal.
Offhand, I'm not sure if GB lets you access sustain data directly - if so, that would be a more direct way of fixing it.

HT1578 I have created an encrypted disc to prevent others from seeing certain videos but they can still be opened with Garageband. What can I do to?

Hi BGreg,
The disc WAS injected when I first discovered that. It doesn't sto garageband (maybe other apps too) from reading & opening the files.

HT5225 what to do with podcasts created with GarageBand

With Apple doing away with hosting my podcasts created with GarageBand, will I be able to submit future podcasts that will appear in iTunes?

GarageBand wil make the actual recording of your podcast, together with chapter markers and images if you want an 'enhanced' audio podcast. It will not make the feed. It's designed to work directly with iWeb, which itself can post to any hosting service; but the file you save out of GarageBand can be used with any podcast creation program or service.
However you need to distinguish between the different types of image. The images that GarageBand adds to the file are visible when you subscribe to the feed in iTunes as they are actually embedded in the media file. The image which appears on the Store page, and the data such as categories, subtitles and so on, is all in the feed and GarageBand does not and never has provided these. If you work with iWeb you can add those details there to produce the feed, or other methods will provide places you can enter the data.
In your own interests, when you have a question please start a new thread rather than tacking on to an old one - this one is months old and indeed the OP's problem is not the same as yours. Questions about GarageBand itself are best asked in the GarageBand forum, and about podcasting in the Producing Podcast forum - you're in the iCloud forum and iCloud has nothing to do with this as it does not offfer website hosting.

Problems with garageband 5.1 and mac OS X 10.8.5

I have recently started experiencing major problems with garageband. I assume this is since my latest upgrade but I also now realise that I've been having problems for quite some time but its just got worse.
I can't seem to upload a new version of Garage band. I understand that I need to upgrade to ilife but I can't find it in the app store. Is this what I need to do? and if does anybody have a link to it?
I work as a VO artist and really need to sort this asap
I look forward to any hints/tips/ideas
Thanks in advance

the latest version of GB is version 10, which requires Mac OS X 10.9.x (both are free), which leaves you with two options:
upgrade your system and get GBv10 (Apple no longer offers v6)
find boxed copy of iLife '11 which has GB v6 on ebay, or amazon (they have iLife '11 for $39)

After upgrading to Snow Leopard, What's the highest version of iLife?

Every since I upgraded my video camera firmware, I haven't been able to import the videos into iMovie 08. So I upgraded my "early 2008 MacBook Pro to Snow Leopard, but iLife '11 requires 11.7.4. What is the highest level of iLife allowed in Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and how do I download it?

The latest iLife version compatible with Snow Leopard is iLife '11. However, you can't download iPhoto '11, iMovie '11 and GarageBand '11 from the Mac App Store because the latest version isn't compatible with Snow Leopard, but you can still install iLife '11.
To install iLife '11, you have to buy iLife '11 in a DVD at eBay or Amazon, and install it into your computer. Then, open  > Software Update, and install the most recent version of all iLife '11 apps compatible with Snow Leopard. If you want to purchase them as a download, you have to upgrade to Lion or Mountain Lion

Error Code -36 with GarageBand '08 v4.1(236) using Plantronics headset

Following the upgrade from Leopard 10.5 to 10.5.1, we are now getting Error Code -36 Core Audio errors when using the Plantronics DSP-500 headset on GarageBand '08 v4.1 (236). The same error also appears when using a Plantronics DSP-100 headset. Using iMac's built-in audio works fine. Usage of the Plantronics headset worked fine prior to upgrading Leopard to v10.5.1. We have applied the iLife 8.1.1 and GarageBand 4.1 updates. The Error Code pops up during recording. Any ideas on what we should do to get the Plantronics DSP-500 headset to work again with GarageBand??

My mac OS X did not come with GarageBand, how do get it for free?

My mac OS X did not come with GarageBand, how do get it for free?
I don't want to pay for garageband because it should have come with my laptop but it didn't. I got it used so that might be the problem. Also I installed leopard on it. I'm not sure if that would affect it at all. Please help. Thanks.

Okay, so you bought the machines used?
What OS version was on it when you bought it?
You bought Snow Leopard (10.6.x) and installed it?
The original version is important because there were some OS versions that did not include iLife (incl. Garageband) - you had to get it separately. And, the retail Snow Leopard disk does not include it.
So, if that is correct, then it doesn't have to have it installed. In any case, you can still buy a retail version of iLife with the full suite of apps from online retailers; either version 09 or 11 will work with your OS. Or you can just buy Garageband at the app store.

What programs come with OS X - Leopard

I am new to Macintosh and my new MacPro should arrive around the 25th of February. What programs come with the new OS? Are there any photo or DVD programs? I really don't know what comes with the new system?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard (includes Time Machine, Quick Look, Spaces, Spotlight, Dashboard, Mail, iChat, Safari, Address Book, QuickTime, iCal, DVD Player, Photo Booth, Front Row, Xcode Developer Tools)
iLife ’08 (includes iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, iWeb, and GarageBand)

How do I use my controller board with garageband?

I have an Edirol PCR-30 controller board which I use w/ garageband 3.x. So far I've only been using it as a keyboard and not as a tool. What I mean is it has all these knobs and sliders but I have no idea how to get them integrated with GarageBand.
Can anyone explain this process?

I can pair the headphones with the computer but the sound from GB is distorted and muffled. I can barely hear it. The set works with iTunes, but not with GarageBand.

Is there any way to use the Korg Kaossilator Pro with Garageband 6.0.5?

I'm getting pretty decent at working around with the newest version of Garageband. I've gotten my Akai MPK Mini (usb/midi keyboard) to work by adjusting a few preferences here and there, but for the last week I have been trying and trying to get my Korg Kaossilator Pro to hook up MIDI with Garageband. I understand if the program/software isn't as advanced as Logic or Ableton (be getting those soon!) If anybody could help me it would be MUCH appreciated
P.S. if anybody is having troubles with exporting the AIFF/WAV/MP3 audio files I could give you a bit of help. I have figured out how to correctly export the audio loops and sounds that I have made from my Kaossilator Pro into Garageband! It is quite simple actually and is ALOT easier than you would think. Following the tempo/pitch for your song w/ these WAV/AIFF files is really easy too! I have made almost 4 songs now just using samples and loops from my Kaossilator Pro. I just would like to know if anybody has found out how to use it MIDI w/ Garageband? It would REALLY help me out Thanks!

yeeeeah thats what i've been figuring out for the last 12 hours haha. kinda've a pain but hey it works out. u can still throw some pretty cool effects and what not. Even with MIDI cables running from my kaoss pro into my mac doesn't work. i can transfer the loops I make on my kaoss pro to the editor on my comp, then transfer those files to GB then go from there. It ***** there isn't a way to hook it in and sync it w/ GB so you can hit record then start jamming on the kaoss pro. Thanks for the response though!

Problem with GarageBand for iOS 6/7 Iphone 3gs / 4

Problem with GarageBand for iOS 6/7 Iphone 3gs / 4
Hello,
On February 16, bought the GarageBand for iOS which was free and so I find and install it on my 3GS .
Take the demo: Curtain Call Demo
and within the instruments :
audio Recorder
Sampler
Smart Drums
Smart Strings
Smart Bass
Smart Keyboard
Smart Guitar
Keyboard
Drums
Guitar Amp
1.4.1 is the latest version for ios 6.
Configure my AppleID on a Iphone 4 and install the program , the version I have the Iphone 4 is the orange ( different from 3gs ) icon and put it on the AppStore : ios 2.0.1 for ios7.
With these instruments :
audio Recorder
Sampler ( to download the instrument )
Smart Drums ( to download the instrument )
Smart Strings (Download the instrument )
Smart Bass ( to download the instrument )
Smart Keyboard ( to download the instrument )
Smart Guitar
Keyboard
Drums
Guitar Amp ( to download the instrument )
and if I give what I need to restore tells me if I bought it I did not restore anything and tells me to buy :
Complete collection of GarageBand instruments and sound at a price of : € 4.49
As they are 2 different versions ? More than anything I say because I have to pay for the instruments in the 2.0.1 version of the Iphone 4 ... ?
And besides not wearing demo Demo Curtain Call : (
GarageBand 1.x If you are upgrading it using iTunes on a Mac or PC, you can restore the original collection of instruments and sounds. There is no need to buy this collection. Press "You've already purchased?" When displayed on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
this puts on the AppStore but I have tried to restore as I wrote above, and does not work. There is nothing to restore.
regards

I've been having the same problem. However, I believe my problem is due to the 3G issues I've been having. I don't have internet access even when the 3G symbol appears, so probably my iphone keeps trying to connect to the network and has its battery drained! Have you been having the same issue?

Wha wha pedal work well with GarageBand but don't want to work with logic pro 9.1.8 on my MBPro end 2011

Install on MacBook Pro end of 2011 with logic Pro 9.1.8 and Apogee GIO interface guitar
The wha wha pedal work well with GarageBand but not working with Logic Pro
Only the red light turning on and off at the screnn of the MBPro and on my Apogee GIO (Guitar Interface Midi) switch button but the effect wha wha won't work.
HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND MY ENGLISH

Pancenter...
Yes... but I have come across some setups that came with a native SL (and even one Lion!) installation.. that somehow had a corrupted or older Prokit installed for some unknown reason... and given it's a quick fix to try.. I thought I'd mention it..
I frankly don't think it is entirely a Prokit issue itself, but it wouldn't do any harm to try and install v7 just in case it is part of the problem...
+1 on the UAD stuff....
Also, at the time it crashed... according to the logs...the OP was running Ableton Live at the same time, presumably rewired with Logic... so add all that together with UAD plugins... and that's quite a load on the system...
Finally in thread 32 there is a weird exception msg relating to the Trash2 plugin.. that I haven't seen before...
Thread 32:
0   libSystem.B.dylib
0x94c29afa mach_msg_trap + 10
1   libSystem.B.dylib
0x94c2a267 mach_msg + 68

0x94c57259 _pthread_start + 345
4   libSystem.B.dylib
0x94c570de thread_start + 34
That might be nothing... but as i said, I haven't seen that one before and given what else is going on.. it might be involved too... or nothing to do with that at all!

How to use old "Apple Loops for Soundtrack" with Garageband

Since Soundtrack (was part of FinalCut Express HD) doesn't work anymore (since some ProKit framework update) and was not part of the FinalCut Express 4 upgrade I used Garageband for sound creation and editing. But I missed some good loops from the old Soundtrack.
The Apple Loops for Soundtrack were still sitting on my harddisk but Garageband didn't recognize them in the Loop-Browser. Looking at the structure I found the Search Index files (/Library/Audio/Apple Loop Index/). I have two there, one for Garageband and another for iLife Sound Effects. Both are interpreted by Garageband. But no third for the old Soundtrack Loops. So I had a look at the Sound Loops installer DVD from FinalCut HD and there I found a similar structur and copied the Index file to the location of the two indexes mentioned above. I left the Loops for Soundtrack where they are (also could edit the index file for new locations, but that's a 7.5MB text file) and now Garageband knows their location and also lists the loops at the right categories inside the Loop-Browser.
Maybe that helps someone, even if I didn't find a topic about it here.

Ah.. ok, then never mind. Just didn't find any information about how to use the old soundtrack loops with garageband and so I did some thinking on my own. And if it works that easy, the better it is

How to use Alesis synthesizer with GarageBand

I have a Alesis QS6.1 64 voice expandable synthesizer. I have purchase a MIDI to USB converter cable and attached the synthesizer to my Power Mac G5 system that is running Mac OS X 10.5.5.
The Audio MIDI Setup program on the Macintosh indicates that it successfully identifies the MIDI device.
I want to be able to use the synthesizer to record in GarageBand. However, when I open GarageBand v2.0.2 and play the synthesizer sound comes out of the synthesizer speaker and nothing happens on the computer. There is no indication that GarageBand is responding at all to the synthesizer.
What is needed so that the synthesizer keyboard will work with GarageBand?
