Writing Mp3 in garage band?

I like to post some of my jams on my facebook etc, but they only accept Mp3 format. it seems that gargage band only writes in mp4... I know how to buy software to do this... but will the program write files in Mp3, without having to import 3rd party software?

  • Can i isolate one instrument from an mp3 on garage band?

    can i isolate one instrument from an mp3 on garage band? i want to be able to analyse the drumming from a few songs and wondered if it was possible on my imac

    No, GarageBand cannot unmix an mp3. You need a program that can transcribe an audio file, like Melodyne. I think Logic can do that too, but I never tried Logic myself.
    Unfortunately, these programs are rather more expensive than GarageBand.

  • Minidisc to MP3 via Garage Band ?

    Hi,
    I need to copy some minidiscs to mp3. Can I do this (via a mini-jack to mini-jack lead) from the minidsic player to my Mac, using Garage Band?
    If not, please can anyone suggest the best way of doing this?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    This morning I tried to record from a minidisc to Garage Band. At last I found some time to experiment. It worked, but kept stopping after less than two minutes, which is not very good since I have a 2-hour interview to transfer over. Please does anyone have any ideas?
    Also, what’s a good compression setting for spoken voice / interview? There’s not much background noise, but the signal out of the headphone output on the minidisk recorder is a bit low. I can boost it ok using the compression gain. But don’t want to over-do it. Are there any meters anywhere??
    Thank you!

  • Making an mp3 a garage band track

    Is there a way to take an .mp3 song and import it as a track into garage band?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    +Is there a way to take an .mp3 song and import it as a track into garage band?+
    Yes. Just drag it to the Timeline. If it won't import, check to see if it's labeled MP3. If so, change it to mp3, and try again.

  • Dragging mp3s into garage band

    Before I was able to do this and I could cut and edit parts of songs out or loop parts if I wanted to transcribe them. Now garage band wont let me drag and drop songs into it. I thought maybe it was because I have'nt updated GB for a while ( I was using GB '08) I just recently upgraded to GB '11 and still cant do it. Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    A DRM protected AAC song is a song with Digital Rights Management - you can only play it on a handful of devices, and you can't import it into GB. You can identify it by pressing cmd-I in iTunes, it will tell you it's a purchased AAC song or so. You can buy DRM free songs in iTunes, they are more expensive than the protected ones.

  • Why can't I import Mp3 into Garage band

    I have recorded a very small piece of sound and i want to edit it in garageband why won't it allow me to .  Mp3 is on the list of files , see pic below . Thanks , all this to demonstrate my computer is a noisy piies of kit , always 'rattling' ...

    Try this as it works for me.
    Take your project, drag the MP# to your desktop, create a new basic track and drag the mp3 to the new basic track.
    I'm sure there are more elegant ways to do this but this works.
    Good luck

  • How do you convert MP4 to MP3 in Garage Band?

    I downloaded an MP4 and loaded it into GarageBand, but after I added a new track to accompany the MP4 track, GB will not record on the new track...?

    , but after I added a new track to accompany the MP4 track, GB will not record on the new track...?
    Thi should work. At least it does in my GB version '11. What is your version?
    Just to be sure - some basic things to check :
    Is your new track a software instrument track or a real instrument track? It the type of the track does not match the type of instrument you are using (software or real) you will not be able to record.
    Is the track ensabled for recording and the correct track selected?

  • How to import mp3 to Garage Band 3

    i Tryied by draging it by impot option but its not working .

    You should be able to drag it into the timeline - if it comes from an AIFF or WAV with the right sample rate. Otherwise you have to convert it to a 44.1 kHz/16 bit AIFF file in iTunes.

  • HOW DO I CHANGE THE PITCH OF A MP3 TRACK IN GARAGE BAND 10.0.02

    HOW DO I CHANGE THE PITCH OF A MP3 TRACK IN GARAGE BAND 10.0.02 , i could do it in old version looking at the you tube video, now the screen looks different cant find how to do it. Can some one put up a video please
    Thanks

    There are three ways:
    Use an AuPitch filter on the track
    Or turn the audio region into a loop
    Enable "Follow Tempo and Pitch" for the track and use the transposition slider (that does not always work reliably)
    To add an AuPitch filter:
    Enable the audio Units in the GarageBand Preferences and then open the Smart Controls.
    To add the AuPitch filter audio unit, click the Audio Unit button and enlarge the Smart Controls pane by dragging the dividing line to the Track Area upwards.
    click the Audio Units Brick and add the AuPitch filter:
    Type the pitch change in cents (100 cents per half note step) into the text field below the pitch control.
    To create a loop from the audio file:
    Select the region in the track and use the command "File: Add region to Loop library".
    Set the current key and tempo, name the loop, and save the loop.
    Now add it from the loop browser to a new track and delete your old track. The search field in the Loop browser will help you to find the loop quickly.
    You will be able to transpose the sample like a regular loo by changing the project key.

  • How to convert garage band mp3 to mp4a for iBooks Author

    I wanted to share a quick and easy tip for converting mp3 audio fiiles done in Garage Band for a book in iBooks Author. SImply click  on the mp3 podcast and drag it into Quick Time Player and when the audio file comes up in Quick Time, export the file. The export will convert the audio podcast into the mp4a format required by iBooks Author. This file can be dragged into the media box provided by the Widget. Simple, easy.  I am getting ready to publish a book of 70 podcasts.

    Jeanette... I believe you are talking about an M4A file (also know as AAC). MP4 files files are what Apple used to use in the iTUnes Store and are DRM (digital rights management). Being that iBooks Author only accepts M4A, it is what's you want to use.
    If you have iTunes, you can use it to convert an MP3 to an M4A very easily. here is a YouTube tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7nZRjg7zMw

  • HOW DO I FORMAT GARAGE BAND SONGS TO MP3 THROUGH ITUNES?

    I am having the same problem and I did the same steps as Vasso. But my songs are from Garage Band... How do you format the songs from Garage band so that they can be burned as MP3 CD's from ITunes? I went to preference in Itunes then to advance then to burning and I set it for MP3 Cd and when I tried to burn the selected songs on my playlist I was prompted that ONLY FILES THAT ARE ALREADY MP3 FORMAT MAY BE BURNED TO AN MP3 CD.

    You posted in a Windows forum, so its probably why you had your question overlooked. I found this article for you that seems to answer that question. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93585
    Good Luck, and try the Mac iTunes forum next time for a faster answer.

  • Can't export songs as mp3's from new garage band=

    In the early versions of garage band i could export my songs as mp3 files on my desktop.
    I cant find this function in the new garage band.

    mp3 export is not currently an option for GBv10, though it's not difficult to still create an mp3 formatted file:

  • Violin Recording in Garage Band 3 (or another program?)

    I'm a recent convert from PC user to Mac lover. Would it be possible for someone to tell me a good set up for recording? I do not own my own pre-amp or microphone so I will need to plan on purchasing these. I'm not yet sure of how much money I'll be able to spend, but I could use a good nudge in the right direction so I can at least know what to look for.
    In the past I had been using an Alienware 51m with a Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook PCMCIA card where I was connecting the cable to the optical in port. Since I had only one line in to the card I used a Y cable to connect to the pre-amp to the sound card. Then I had the mic set up on a stand somewhat near the area I would be playing. When I had been recording I had been just using Creative Mediasource.
    My main concern in finding a way to duplicate this setup on my Mac is two-fold. I need to have a setup that allows a wide range of dynamics and pitches and can accurately capture tone quality. Nearly everything I will be recording will be Classical music (pre-Bach through contemporary). Another concern I face is that I am not allowed to edit recordings in any way. So I need to have a program that focuses on recording vs. editing.
    As I've been looking through the forums here I've noticed that Garage Band 3 only records 16 bit sound, is there a better alternative for me to use? When I was doing this on PC I was able to record in 24 bit because of the soundcard I was using.
    Any suggestions or nudges would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    The best thing about grareband is the ability to do great sounding multitrack recording with the least amount of learning curve and a super simple user interface, oh and the price. For almost any recording from podcast to writing songs, recording demos and recording online or mp3 music GB does the job nicely. If your recording sound that need the best possible quality and control then you may want to look into logic or Logic Express. Especially if you plan to make a living at this.
    Now you may find GB to be all you need but only you can decide this. As for getting high quality sound into your computer you will need a usb or firewire interface. So for some to help you we need to know how many tracks you will be recording at a time and a ballpark figure of what you would like to spend.
