Fortunately, I've always been one of those minimalists who seldom makes more than 4 tracks.

[@TheComfortInStatic_Official]

Me too. I'm old school. I remember recording my very first demos on a Tascam 414 straight to cassette tape. 😆

[@mon_nobi]

i have been producing on iOS for a decade and thought I knew everything there was to know (and arguably I did), but then that little drummer track to midi hack finally opened my eyes to discovering something new! big ups, pretty neat.

[@SabcatPrinting]

Ive never given GB a fair chance but… these 3 features seem superb workflow.

[@kabedford]

That item about recording drum MIDI is pure gold! 😱🦑

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

it’s pretty incredible right! All credit to Binnie for discovering it!

[@waltford2800]

That drum tip is fantastic, thank you!

[@renahere1885]

...You & Pete Johns have helped me to know about all this stuff and just finished my first GarageBand production as a "learning" project (only taken one year👍..but I applied everything I've learned, little by little, & sine great plugins via your recommendation s....thank you
Patrrrrrrick!

[@zendobrendo0001]

Killer, thank you

[@giri.goyo_yt]

3:36 BWAHAHAHA. Love it! Awwsome drum hack!!! Cheers and gracias!

[@JamieMallender]

Thank you Garageband Yoda! ✌️

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

welcome duuuuuuuuuuuude you are

If you save a copy of the Garageband file under one name before merging tracks, you can then rename the file slightly and then proceed to merge tracks. So you end up with the file before and after the tracks merger. This also allows you to recognize which version of the composition is the latest one going forward. For example before merge, save Pianogrrl’s song 1. Rename the file Pianogrrl’s song 1a, then merge the tracks…I do this all the time in order to have an easily recognized recovery method if things go awry.

[@giri.goyo_yt]

Same here!

[@niallsbasstones9713]

Hey from Dublin. Cool video thanks
An observation. It seems to me that GarageBand on iPhone (12 pro max) is limited when compared to GarageBand on iPad. I am specifically referring to the input options. I record bass guitar covers etc and I cannot connect my bass signal from my new Focusrite Scarlett 212 (4th Gen) Audio Interface to Garage band on my iPhone as there is limited input options on the top left hand side (option 1 or 2 appears on iPad but not on iPhone)

[@SuperBlackfox22]

Awsome video, hope they make a way to select hidden drum sounds visible

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Cheers! Yeah, hopefully Apple will add the ability to edit the on screen kits at some point!

[@GaryHubbs]

The Binnie Move is a handy thing, I’m sure Apple is working to destroy it haha! Great content as always Patrick 🤘

[@smithspears2653]

more videos please

[@xcfuller1]

If you need to remix a merge, just open the saved copy that gb automatically creates when you merge. Do your remix and merge again to create a track and copy/replace into the most current gb project

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Great tip!

[@mon_nobi]

@@TheGaragebandGuide I would absolutely love it it if they gave us a set of like 3-5 empty drum kits that we could customize with existing garageband sounds, basically a beat sampler, would be so so good

[@Kristian.Ofsteng]

Recently did a hilarious rookie mistake, which I’m ashamed of as a GarageBand iOS user who has had the app for over 3 years now.
I was going to interview someone for my college work and was going to record it with GarageBand. I forgot to use the bloody automatic song section length and only recorded 8 seconds of the 40 minute interview I did on the guy. God dammit 🤣

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Oh man. 🤦‍♂️ We’ve all been there!

[@cawsomeaolin]

omggggg it keeps adding clapping into the beats when i turned off the clap its so annoying because it sounds like a generic pop song that im being forced to listen to
