New GarageBand users will be up and running quickly, while power users will benefit from advanced instruction on creating, arranging and mixing songs, podcasts and movie soundtracks using this simple and powerful application.
"GarageBand offers what is probably the best combination of power and simplicity available in a music application. However, even the easiest applications have hidden features that can help you work smarter and faster," says Wallace. "Our goal was to help people get the most out of GarageBand, whether they are sketching out new songs, getting their message out in a podcast or putting the finishing touches on their vacation videos."
This Mac and PC compatible DVD Tutorial covers a lot of ground, beginning with introductory chapters such as First Run, Guided Tour 1 and 2, and chapters on Projects, Tracks, and Loops. He then moves through the nuts and bolts of Garageband'08 with topics ranging from Arranging and Editing, to Effects and Mixing. Garageband '08 finishes with chapters on diverse subjects such as Sharing Your Music, Podcast Tracks, Voiceovers, and Movie Soundtracks.
