Course Overview

Garageband for Songwriting and Music Production

Become a master at using GarageBand. Learn how to Compose, Edit, Mix and Master your music with real life examples.




Is Garageband considered for professional audio production?


Garageband isn’t less powerful than Logic Pro just because it’s free; People don’t pay attention to the things that are free in life. Just because it’s easy to get, it doesn't mean it’s not worth getting it.


I have been using Garageband since its release in 2004, and back then I used it to compose music for theatre.


With the continues improvements to Logic Pro throughout the years, Garageband has inherited some of the best features from its older brother. Tempo changes, Key changes, and some significant plugins for mixing and mastering, just to mention a few. GarageBand is a fully equipped music creation studio inside your Mac with a complete sound library that includes instruments, presets for guitar and voice, and an incredible selection of session drummers and percussionists as well as a vast selection of Synthesizers.


Can you make a professional recording with Garageband?


We can safely answer with a resounding YES!!
