If, like me, you are not a drummer (or even if you are), the virtual drummer option in GarageBand is a great way to get realistic sounding drums in your songs in GarageBand iPhone and GarageBand iPad.
In this video, I take you through a complete end to end "Drummer" creation process and show you how I create drums for my songs using the virtual drummer in GarageBand.

Forgot to say, it is a great song at the end, lyrics are very meaningful, as I understand that is the “dance of a life/living together”.
Thank you. I’m glad the story behind this song was able to be conveyed clearly.
As a songwriter I have to say that sounds like a beautiful song. Thank you also for sharing your tutorial on this amazing aspect of GarageBand. When I was a teenager I was holding a two track cassette recorders beside each other to record music ha ha. My God kids don’t even know what they have nowadays.
Haha! I hear you. I’m also from the tape days. My first 4-track recorder was a game changer. What the “kids” have these days is insane!
Fantastic, man. I love that message music and the way you get into the singing. I had a music teacher once that said to me that singing within itself is a great joy.
Cheers David. 👍
I really appreciate how consistent and helpful your videos are!
Thanks my friend. My intention is to balance out familiarity and some new ideas, so hopefully I’m on the right track. 👍
I've been watching your videos for around a year and a half and can truly say that your doing a great job!
Really appreciate the kind words and your support. 👍
Very helpful again Pete, thank you.
Excellent! Thanks for letting me know. 👍
Wow that was double great! Thanks for this video!!!
Double thanks my friend! 👍
You and I are the same. We're good musicians but we're bad drummers! Although, I've got a new beatbox, which I'm extraordinary at. "I'm a very good driver." Loved this video. GB smart drums are amazing. I didn't realize how it offered granular changes to the beats and fills. Want to get good at GB? Watch this video.
Cheers Pete. Yeah, I’m usually fair on myself these days and have much improved confidence. But I can say that drums are definitely not my strong suit!! 😄
Amazing review and tutorial as always!
Thanks Pablo. Appreciate your support as always my friend. 🙏
Thanks again! Very cool song, Pete.
Thanks Robert. Really appreciate your ongoing support.
I appreciate your videos. Nice help.
Thank you my friend. Appreciate you taking the time to let me know. 👍
Lovely song, Pete!
Thanks John. Appreciate your support as always. It's starting to come together!
Nice Pete! I like it.
Cheers my friend! 👍
awesome video and sound gooooood
hank you Danny. Appreciate your support! 🙏👍
And my friend Duke Denver loves it, too!
Nice one. Not sure who that is sorry, it glad to hear it. 😊👍
@@PeteJohnsMusic :-) He's a GarageBand guy. Follows GarageBand Users on FB.
Awesome! Well, I’m a fan of anyone who’s a fan of GarageBand. 👍🙏
Exited to see what you have in store for us in this video, hopefully I can add a few tips after watching it to the end. :)
Haha! Oh, I have no doubt you will. I don't cover everything that's possible but will create that video one day, so always keen to know any additional tips. 👍🤘
As a drummer, I would suggest using the toms for fills.
Yes, good call! Even with Drummer on the cymbals, the fills will often wander over to the toms, but I have since experimented with splitting and shifting more fills on to the toms on your advice and it is sounding better!
Hi Pete! Thanks for all the information you provide for us the Garage Band Producers :D I have problem and I would love to know if you have a solution. When I edit a little part of drums (using drummer of course), all the other parts change automatically!! And this is driving me nuts!! Once I get one piece to sound as I want, all the other have already changed!! I see that you don’t seem to have this problem on this video. One solution that I thought is to convert every new bit of drums to MIDI, but that is a lot of work! I hope you could give me some light on this! Cheers from Mexico!!
Hey there. So, what I do with Drummer is make sure I chop the Drummer segments up in to chunks that correlate with the song. Just use the split tool. That way you can make day a 2 bar section, get it sounding perfect, then move on to the next one and it won’t change the other section. ruclips.net/video/ueEaHLsRLPs/видео.html
Hi Pete, thanks for all the great videos. I was wondering if there is a way to convert the virtual drummer to MIDI in GarageBand IOS? I can't figure it out.
Unfortunately not. Even though it’s pretty much a virtual instrument, GarageBand treats it as an audio track.
Quick question. How can I get the virtual drummer to sound like it's coming from the middle or center of my mix?
Convert it to a mono audio file. ruclips.net/video/eWPNNBJlLlU/видео.html
Also, hey Pete do you think these drum tracks are good enough to use for an actual recording if it was mastered well?
Thanks my friend. Yes, the finished product came out pretty well. You can judge for yourself here - ruclips.net/video/eQefiGqHf4A/видео.html
hey mate nice hat.... is it possible to lock in these drums and move them around where they won't adjust to position in the measure? I added a 6/8 section to my outro that doesn't resolve back to a 4/4 "one" and my drummer is all out of whack.... I've tried merging but the track comes up silent.... tried merging with the bass that kick and snare was following and only hear the bass.. .tried unfollow and still silent. I feel like I've merged entire songs before that included the drummer but now nothing will capture the drums... any ideas? thanks
Hmmmm.... this sounds like a bit of a complex one. I would suggest sharing some info over on the GarageBand Users Facebook group. studiolivetoday.com/gbu
Beautiful song by the way!!
I don’t know if at the end your same time but on the last part when you finish and you hold the note.
You should put three other voices and hold it on Harmony to
The harmony should go lower notes and then another lower notes and then the last want too lower note . For example.
The first one should be a measure after the first time note
I think it’s one Measure or something like that.. And then the second one and the third one should do the same thing after the first harmony. one measure after that the second harmony then one measure after that the third harmony.
I think it would sound cool.
Once you have all the harmonies. Keep it on hold to finish.
. Sorry about my typing. It’s really hard to dictate my messages this is Carlos the blind guy
I wish I can just send a voice message. It would be easier. Let me know if you do Facebook or something like that messenger.
Interesting concept - I like it! I did play around with more harmonies originally but my voice was going and I just couldn't hit the notes in the right way, so it was making it sound muddy and overdone. I might give it one more try before the final version.
I think an accordion would sound awesome on this. But I’m not sure how you could get that sound?
Would you believe that I have my Dad's old piano accordion and was playing with using this, but just couldn't get it sounding right. Maybe I need to have another go?
Pete Johns What a coincidence! Lol!
@@PeteJohnsMusic Is there a virtual accordion amongst the GarageBand instruments? I never looked?
😊
Nope. The closest I found is something like the toy melodica in the Toy Box pack. We need saxophone, harmonica and accordion! 😊
I watched this video in double tempo
How did the song sound at 2x? Spare a bought for me... I had to edit it!! 😄
Pete Johns I actually liked the double tempo feeling, it made me feel like dancing, and so i did. ;)
Blimey! Pete talks fast enough already, there’s no way I could listen to him at double speed!
Michael Holmes glad I’m not the only one who thinks he talks fast.
Haha! I should do the next video in all cockney rhyming slang and see how that goes. 😅
