GarageBand offers
all of the tools you need to achieve professional results. Don't worry
- you won't need an engineer that can cost thousands of dollars. So
what if you sold your flute or never bought a piano? GarageBand lets
you be a one man band.
Close your eyes and you can hear the song playing in your head.
It's a haunting piano melody.
Since not everyone has a garage, let alone a band to invite over, we
thought you might appreciate having a few professional musicians sit in
on your sessions. You can place them in infinite combinations of unique
arrangement. GarageBand's Loop Browser helps you get the creative
juices flowing.
You don't even have to have rhythm.
It's the easiest way to create, perform, and record your own music
whether you're an accomplished player or just wish you were a rock
star. Since not everyone has a garage, let alone a band to invite over,
we thought you might appreciate a thousand of their riffs on your Mac
after you install GarageBand.
You don't even have to have rhythm.
GarageBand plays them all back with your composition, so you can
hear what it sounds like as you mix in changes. In fact, with that
electric guitar of yours, you have access to virtual guitar amps that
let you emulate such classic and modern sounds as Clean Jazz, Arena
Rock, British Invasion, and others.
You don't even have to have rhythm.
Connect your electric guitar directly to your Mac by using a little
acoustic bass here, a tambourine loop there - then lay down a few
tracks of your own to complete the mix.
You don't even have to have rhythm.
Like to experiment? By all means, do so. If you're not completely
happy with what you're hearing, you can experiment with the effects
yourself until you achieve the sound you're after. You can emulate a
Jimi Hendrix solo with your guitar overpowering the vocals.
You don't even have to have rhythm.

slapped together in odd combinations. Wonder where I got that idea?
