5 Tutorial 3: Recording Vocals

and Musical Instruments

You can record your voice or any other sound you can

capture using a microphone. If you play a musical

instrument, you can also record it in a GarageBand

project.

In GarageBand, you record sound from a microphone or from a musical instrument

connected to your computer in a Real Instrument track. Real Instrument tracks have

blue headers, and the regions containing your recordings appear purple. You can

change track settings and add effects to Real Instrument tracks in the Track Info pane.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to:

Â Add a Real Instrument track and change instrument settings

Â Add an Electric Guitar track and choose a guitar amp

Â Record sound in a Real Instrument or Electric Guitar track

Â Record over a specific part of a project using the cycle region

Â Record multiple takes

Â Tune your guitar

Adding a Real Instrument Track

To record sound in a Real Instrument track, you first add the track to your project and

prepare it for recording.

To add a Real Instrument track:

1 Click the Add Track button, or choose Track > New Track.

2 In the New Track dialog, click Real Instrument, then click Create.

A new Real Instrument track appears in the timeline, and the Track Info pane opens to

the right of the timeline. The Track Info pane is where you choose different settings for

the selected track.
