Chapter 5 Tutorial 3: Recording Vocals and Musical Instruments 53
 Make sure your microphone, guitar, or other instrument is connected properly and is
working.
 Make sure the correct audio drivers are selected in the Audio/MIDI pane of
GarageBand preferences. When you add a new audio device, GarageBand asks if you
want to use the device for audio input and output.
 Open the Track Info pane to make sure the instrument has the instrument and effects
settings you want, and is using the correct input source.
 Sing or play a few notes and watch the level meter in the track’s header to make sure
the track is receiving input and isn't clipping. If the red dots at the right of the level
meter (called clipping indicators) light up, adjust the input level by dragging the
Recording Level slider, selecting Automatic Level Control, or lowering the level of the
audio device connected to your computer.
 Set the project tempo and key so that you won’t have to change them later.
Recording a Real Instrument
Now you’re ready to record sound to the selected Real Instrument or Electric Guitar
track.
To record to a Real Instrument or Electric Guitar track:
1 Make sure the track is selected, and that the red Record Enable light in the track’s
header is on.
2 Move the playhead to the point in the timeline where you want to start recording.
3 Choose Control > Count In to have the metronome play a one-measure count-in before
recording starts to make it easier to start playing on the beat.
(Alternatively, you can move the playhead a few beats before the point where you
want the music to come in.)
4 Click the Record button in the transport controls to start recording.
5 Start playing your instrument or singing into your microphone. As you record, a new
region appears in the selected Real Instrument track with the music you record.
6 When you’re finished, click the Play button to stop recording.
After a few moments, an audio waveform appears in the newly recorded region.
