I put together a short video introducing Garageband, a very powerful Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) that comes with every Apple computer, tablet and phone. Enjoy!

Thanks! That was a good introduction; it's interesting to get input from someone who has been using GB for a long time. I just started using it as a step up from the voice recorder on my phone and I haven't looked for tutorials yet, but it seems that most people move on to fancier DAWs quickly.

You're welcome! If you have any questions along the way, please feel free to DM me.

I agree that it seems like many people do move on to other DAWs very quickly, and I really can't understand why. The DAW is really just the tool, and with Garageband, it can get very deep if you want and have the know how.

The part where I discuss the sampling rate is where many people get hung up. I am learning that the real industry standard is 48Khz or 96Khz mostly because of the video conversion issue. Garageband is stuck at 44.1Khz and doesn't give the option to change the sampling rate at all. To pay $200 just for the ability to do that doesn't seem reasonable to me. I'm just a home hobbyist, though.
