I fucking LOVED the live loop freestyle! We are so obsessed with never being vulnerable that we often lose sight of the fun in just messing about. It's awesome and liberating and i really appreciate seeing people making videos and doing what they do. It's based as fuck!

Really appreciate what you do for people, I was bewildered when I first started using gb, but I used your tutorials and I quickly became able to make songs I was really impressed with quality wise.

@@PeteJohnsMusic Pete thanks for the reply! How do I send you my music for the upcoming demo of peoples music you are doing? I’d love to show you what I created!
Omg this is where I was stuck before every funking tutorial talks about track screen and I was doing everything on the grid and so i was lost as to how the heck I record these sounds now I know omg thank you sir you're a focking legend. Much love

Gave Garageband a break for a long while and now back playing with it and once again, your tutorials, Pete Johns, are so valuable! Thank you very much.
Pete, once again you are truly a life saver. I’m new to the garage band (about 4 months in) and you’ve helped me so much. I’m starting a production company and I want to strictly use garage band for now because it has so much potential depending on how creative a person is. Thank you, thank you and thank you🙏🏾.
This is a big help. I didn’t realize you could record and switch. I’m going back through your videos to get to the more beginner level stuff. Thanks so much.
If you want your tracks from the track view to be in the live loops, you can tap what you recorded and tap copy, and then tap on a blank square in live loops and paste it as a new track in live loops
For sure! For others looking for some more GarageBand content and tutorials, take a look at the GarageBand Users Facebook group. studiolivetoday.com/gbu

Super helpful thanks! I was stuck in live loops and couldn’t get out it’s been a while since I used garage band so I wasn’t sure how to switch back and forth. Big thanks!
It's a super common issue Charles, as it's not very intuitive. I hope you get value from the other videos here on the channel and consider subscribing.
Thanks it helped as an overview however I really didn't know what buttons you were clicking on Pete - it was so quick. Hopefully I will find out in another of your videos.
Hey there. Yes my more recent videos use the mouse pointer that was added in iOS 13 so hopefully you can check out some of those videos and will find them easier to follow.
Thank you Carlo. Appreciate your support my friend and glad to hear it helped. If you’re new to GarageBand check out my GarageBand FAQ - studiolivetoday.com/garageband
I like using Live Loops for putting down loops of my own guitar riffs. I’ve used actual looper pedals but I find Live Loops can be used the same way but you can see where you are, where the loop starts over, etc. instead of the blind nature of physical pedal loops. Add to that all the bonuses of effects, amps, etc., it’s SO much fun as well as great for creating song ideas quickly.
I liked this video Pete. If you do some videos on this I think it would be great! I’ve goofed around with this only a little bit. I figured it could work well for song ideas/inspiration. The problem I couldn’t figure out is that the riffs that come out could work for the verse but what about the chord changes for a chorus part. Thanks for all the videos you put out I always watch them all! I remember commenting to you a long time ago when I found your channel how happy I was that I found somebody who was using and teaching about GarageBand for iPad. Thanks!!!
Thanks Tim! Yes, it's been a pretty great journey over the past couple of years and I definitely remember that you were one of the first providing comments way back when I recorded my first EP in GarageBand. You're right that LIve Loops' biggest issue is that everything is in a very static key and getting variation and chord changes at all can be a challenging thing when you're using loops, especially WAV file loops that are very difficult to change. Now that we have more MIDI loops in GarageBand, I think this might be much more flexible and you can start to build in changes by transposing MIDI loops and creating new loops. I'm right in the middle of the planning process for future videos - just working out whether to do these are smaller bite-sized tutorials, or one "complete guide" to Live Loops.
Pete Johns. Good idea on making chord changes by transposing loops for the chorus. Thanks for that! Just to let you know, I slowed down the number of comments I make because I think you are getting busier and busier with things which is good!!? I still have fun though reading other people’s comments and of course watching your videos! 🎶👍
Hello Pete and really THANK you for all the good works you've done from years about Garageband knowledge. As I am a totally Garageband iOS composer I already watched your videos about plugin external gears in usb and it works fine. Now becoming a performer of my compositions I wanted to ask you if you think it would be possible to trigger the liveLoops in Tracks view with an external controller ? (almost like it's possible in Ableton live but I wish to stay in garage band 🥰) Waiting for your answer if you think you have one for me, and wishing you all the best !
I’m using the iRig 2 HD, is it possible to use a digital midi controller with those sounds on garage band? Also, how do I copy and past loops on the grid view lol I know it sounds like dumb but I can’t copy and paste loops on the grid view for some reason.
Hey there. You can use your own sounds using the Sampler, but it's a little clunky. Check out some of my videos on the Sampler on the channel. I haven't used loops in Live Loops view much so maybe ask over on the GarageBand Users Facebook group? studiolivetoday.com/gbu.
Hiya Pete, I'm teaching how to use live loops to my classes of 11 year olds - they are loving it! BUT how do you re-record a song if you want to add tracks to the mix or fx to the tracks. Do I have to start over and add all the loops from scratch again or is there a way to start a new recording?
Hey there. So you can switch between tracks view and Live Loops view and it will keep whatever you’ve recorded already. Maybe check in with the GarageBand Users Facebook group if you need more support. studiolivetoday.com/gbu
Hi there. Not 100% sure about your question. Are you asking about why some are blue, green and yellow? These are the different types of tracks. Blue is an audio track (WAV file), green is MIDI (virtual track) and yellow is Drummer.
Best of luck my friend. I hope you get value from the other videos on the channel and consider subscribing if you haven’t already. 👍 More GarageBand info here. studiolivetoday.com/GarageBand

Pete Johns thanks for ur reply does that mean that I could connect my kawai digital piano using the irig 2 midi to my ipad and thus to the live loops ?
you’re welcome! you seem to be so knowledgeable on everything garage band i was wondering if you might be able to answer a question for me regarding irig midi2 if you’re familiar with that as well? i have a Korg minilogue synth with an iphone and irig midi2 and i’m trying to record synth parts into garageband. there are specific synth patches on my minilogue that i want to incorporate into my song but when i play it into garage band, it seems i’m limited to garagebands stock sounds and my synth is basically just serving as a controller for those. is there any way around this? i’m still pretty new to midi. thanks again for everything!
Good question. I don’t use any external MIDI gear so not super experienced but will tell you what I know. You’re right that MIDI input in GarageBand is only sending the notes, velocity, sustain and bends. Any actual sounds that are part of your external synth won’t be sent to GarageBand via MIDI. The only way I’ve found is to treat the synth like an analog audio device and connect the line out in to the iPad/iPhone using an interface or even just the onboard mic. You’re obviously going to lose the ability to then edit the notes afterwards which is the major drawback. I’ll link a video where I show how to do this below and you might also want to check out some Facebook groups such as iPad Musician and GarageBand Users as there are a heap of more knowledgeable folks there too. 👍 ruclips.net/video/KxNC6MZ_rvo/видео.html
Yes PETE I am lost slowing tempo like a steprecording for midi keyboard instruments and w/ Chordbot to GarageBand Since piano is not my main gear but chords pseudo jazz is not so hard for me to play except clumsy fingering. Guessed it I am a drummer.
Yep, totally. Just map out your song and create all your look tracks, open up a blank track, hit record and you’ll hear back the loops while you record your solo track. Here’s a video about setting up and getting started with a track like this. ruclips.net/video/PlKkPfAS2Zk/видео.html
Hey Pete, when I put some loops in the project and I have cut them, during editing my other tracks, it happens often that a part of a loop change (for example with extra fills) while it is not active. Very strange. But in that case I need to redo all my changes till I am back where I started. That´s realy bad and hard to edit my other tracks. This is my first time that I work with drum loops and maybe I miss some points. It would great if there was a opportunity to protect a track to avoid changes. Any suggestions?
Hey there. Yes, this is unfortunately a part of using the drummer loops, as they actively adjust to the length of each part to try to play a drum part that works for the song. It doesn’t always work out! There’s no real way to change this apart from actually programming in your own drums. THe one option you do have is merging the drum track to an audio track and then splitting/cutting it using this method - ruclips.net/video/ZeloBMl4qqU/видео.html
Very welcome my friend. I have started flicking done my drummer tracks using merge for this reason. I move one beer and suddenly my fill is completely different.

Hi I am yug from India tell me what u think bout my country and by the way ur video was awesome loved it best of luck for ur future
Thank you! I know many wonderful Indian people and adore Indian food. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
may I can use a iphone 7 with ios 15 and garaband??
I believe so? Pretty sure iPhone 7 supports iOS 16. 6S is the cut off.
Yes PETE
I am lost slowing tempo like a steprecording for midi keyboard instruments and w/ Chordbot to GarageBand
Since piano is not my main gear but chords pseudo jazz is not so hard for me to play except clumsy fingering.
Guessed it I am a drummer.
👍
I use tracks more because it allows me to get my own beats and riffs
Yup. I’m a big fan of the tracks view.
Is it possible to record your own loops, solo over it for a while, and record the entire session within GarageBand?
Yep, totally. Just map out your song and create all your look tracks, open up a blank track, hit record and you’ll hear back the loops while you record your solo track.
Here’s a video about setting up and getting started with a track like this.

Hey Pete, when I put some loops in the project and I have cut them, during editing my other tracks, it happens often that a part of a loop change (for example with extra fills) while it is not active. Very strange. But in that case I need to redo all my changes till I am back where I started. That´s realy bad and hard to edit my other tracks. This is my first time that I work with drum loops and maybe I miss some points. It would great if there was a opportunity to protect a track to avoid changes. Any suggestions?
Hey there. Yes, this is unfortunately a part of using the drummer loops, as they actively adjust to the length of each part to try to play a drum part that works for the song. It doesn’t always work out!
There’s no real way to change this apart from actually programming in your own drums.
THe one option you do have is merging the drum track to an audio track and then splitting/cutting it using this method - ruclips.net/video/ZeloBMl4qqU/видео.html
Yes, good option indeed to export and import as audio. Thanks I appreciate
Very welcome my friend. I have started flicking done my drummer tracks using merge for this reason. I move one beer and suddenly my fill is completely different.
Thank you!!!’

Thank you so much because I was confused as hell before I found your video.🦋🎵🎵
Glad to hear it helped.
Pete how do you unmute vocals tried add vocals but could not and also can’t hear my loop
Not quite sure what you’re asking sorry? Maybe provide some more details and ask over at the GarageBand Users Facebook group. studiolivetoday.com/gbu
Is there away to loop any part of your song
You can loop a part of your song if it is contained in one section. Check out. Is video to see how - ruclips.net/video/eghCnXw2yAY/видео.html
