Apple Actually IMPROVED GarageBand?

Thanks

Love these videos, they are so helpful, please keep them coming

These are great but also suck for a big reason.. you cannot record using the 'Merge Recordings' setting..for example.. changes you make in the butter low pass, live and record it to the track.. like you can with the Alchemy Synth

All my songs are made using this program on a mobile and I fucking hate it but I’m poor lol

When i go into audio unit extensions, it doesnt seem to show ant extensions there

Why doesn't the volume of the entire set of tracks appear right after the metronome in GarageBand Mobile? who can help me?

It's their free software for people to play with, but it's not for serious production, so no complaints on those prior limitations. I mean I have a 10 year old Macbook air that it worked just fine with. Now their dongles are a whole other issue.

How can I get my BiasFX 2 to work on GarageBand on my iPad? I’m new to this type of technology for music

Hola mate 👋🏾

Just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to create the content you make and to keep up the good work.

As I’m new when it come to music production and its great to have a guide like you helping us all out on our musical journeys.

Apple is still Apple. It has never impruved anything. Go away.

The Ai drummer is great honestly

This is a welcome addition. I’ll never not use this eq.

i’m confused... i’ve been using these for years? y’all just finding this?

Duude..it's a TOY. What are U complaining? Its not a bug, its a feature, so that you buy Logic!

If only GarageBand would finally let us Monitor more than one track.
Even if it where only two tracks. That would be so helpful to hear yourself play a guitar and sing. But no.

That must have been hard? 🙄

It’s a toy

This is comedy. Anyone wasting time upgrading the workflow of garageband is an idiot. Just get logic.

Been on garage band nearly all of my production life on a 2012 MacBook Pro, but recently started working with mpc live with my Akai MPC Key 61.

It’s so different but a welcome and deeper change into software instruments and recording. It’s been a blast

Man beatmaker 3 still kicks it’s ass it just needs a update cmmooooonnnnn BM3 hahaha

I'm glad GarageBand has the balls to make software with limitations. God forbid we spend more time on the music and less time adjusting parameters. GarageBand is not designed for precision, and it's all the better for it

Tonebridge keeps on crashing my GarageBand… iPhone 13 mini current iOS,any suggestions as to why? Also I’ve noticed bias 2 FX does not sound good and a few other amp sim apps hiss and pop… I’m pretty new at this so I’m basically lost

i think it's been there for years...

Excellent information. Thank you.

But really, if you’re serious about mixing, why are you doing it on an iPad?

FINALLY THE EQ less gooo!...how many years have we been waiting XD

Great improvement and makes Garage Band an intriguing wee songwriting tool :)

My first mixer had 2 knobs, treble and bass. you youngsters don't know you're born.

Dude, I’m just back to GarageBand putting backing tracks together for a solo live bass and drums dub reggae style, the eq was not working at all, now I can do a high cut on my subs and beat matches , nice tip much appreciated and side note appreciate the brevity and concision of the vid . Too many “how to “ are filled with hums and hah and asides …good job

terrible ui, but powerful. thanks for sharing this great info!

When I go to the audiounit extensions, nothing shows up - not even Apple's. If I go to the app store I don't see the Apple extensions. How do I get these? I have the latest version of Garageband and iOS installed. iPad mini 6 here.

This is good news!💯

Until they put in a chord track, Garage Band IOS completely misses its purpose as a songwriting tool. So frustrating!

the best hack

Is this guy being extra Brit for views or is this normal

man what

What happened to ‘the link is in the dinky’!!? 🤷‍♂️ 😬🥲

Patrick, I only use Garageband on my iMac. Can you post the procedure for getting the AU's from ios version to the desktop imac version, please?

I'm from Canada. Either the upgrade is not already available here or, somehow, I can't add Apple's other "Audio Unit Extensions" Is there a way to access the Audio Unit Extensions?
By the way, I am using iPadOS 16.3.1

Geez. Thanks for pointing this out. Had no idea Apple had done this and as usual, they didn't advertise it.

Nice, but not what the title suggested to me, Patrick. This seems like no improvement to GaragaBand itself after all. Buses immediately came to my mind instead ...

Nice nod to muse

Anders is always runnin hot! Haha. Great video Patrick. I appreciate the picture`in`picture feature you do.

First, that’s a fantastic ‘brain-dead’ riff Patrick, hats off. It’s a skill. Second, I haven’t seen a scoff of GarageBand iOS for quite some time…but someone just did it in these comments. I have to thank these people really, because basically it was their scoffing at GarageBand iOS that drew my attention to it while I was locked in mortal combat with Steinberg’s Cubase 9 on my PC. Truly, I was thinking nothing had changed in digital recording and kept hearing ‘DAW’ and ‘Proper DAW’ and scoffing about GB iOS being a ‘toy/joke/for children/(insert your own disparaging term). This asymmetric listing of people’s shoulders under the burden of that chip, caught my eye, or ear, and basically I thought this: ‘If this baby DAW of Apple’s is (for example!) ‘barely worthy of the name’, maybe I might actually be able to get to grips with it’.

And I’ve gone from the iPad 4 barely managing 2 tracks, to an iPad Pro M1 that can playback all 32 tracks of GarageBand while simultaneously playing back 45 tracks worth of a Cubasis 3 song. And hit some milestones along the way with an iPad Pro 2…and I don’t give a rotten fig what anyone thinks about GarageBand iOS/iPadOS. Was it Galileo who asked to be judged not by how messy his life was, but by his skills and accomplishments? I think he drew a perfect circle by eye or something, and so impressed his would-be assassins they took him to their leader rather than carry out their orders, I think that’s how it went anyway. Apple have democratised the almost-perfect sound quality that previously was in the domain of a very few. The songs and the tunes and the weird and wonderful soundscapes that can and are being created, are all that matter. I used to make what we’d call ‘drones’ when I was a kid, and it was utterly pointless. They were beaten around in the sky by the flailing Scottish wind without mercy, and the last one had its wings chopped in half as it glided serenely across a farmer’s field and went between two lines of rather unflinching wire! My father looked at me, I realised he expected me to cry. But no, I grinned up at him with the two parts of the aircraft in my hands, the engine still warm from the flight ‘Cor! You see that dad?! That was brilliant, it’s like it’s damaged in the war!’ I stuck it back together, spliced, and it was stronger than ever. If a song doesn’t work out, you fix it, or leave it and take a different tack for now, maybe circle back later. Some of the best feelings, are from arguably the most pointless activities with the most meagre of resources. I cite bogies…no, not those ones, the ones that roll down hills, the Americans call them ‘soapbox racers’. Can’t think of a more pojntless or brilliant activity.

Thanks Patrick I’ll give this EQ a look, now I’ve cautiously migrated up to iPadOS 16.3.1, take care all, just do you, keep making better music, keep progressing. Scoffing is not an activity I do much of, or pay much attention to, nor should anyone really. Someone scoffed just the other day, at me having to fix my own car up on ramps rather than hand it to a mechanic. These divergent circumstances are not caused by either party, and I don’t feel the need to scoff at them being singularly clueless about machines. I simply am baffled by their scoff, and move on, gladly. So should we all.

Thanks Patrick!! 
Really appreciate your constantly good content !!

I credit your aggressive moaning Patrick, well done, treat yourself to a 🍺

I didn't realize the GarageBand eq was that bad 😳

Yay Apple! 👏

iOS....LOL !!!! 🤡
