GarageBand
Week 2
1. Copy the song from last week to your desktop. Any
files sent to me are here. If
you have no file, start with a new one!
2. Open the song from the Desktop.
3. Take last week's song and "remix"it by doing the following:
a) Change tempo
b) Split regions (using the apple-T command) and place them in new ways
in the song
c) Transpose (change the key/pitch of) software instrument tracks
d) Use volume maps to create fades
e) Use stereo panning (use the "dials" on each track to determine how
far left or right each track will be in the stereo field)
f) Let your imagination run wild!!! Once you have explored these
ways to manipulate your music. You won't ruin your song -- you
can undo anything you haven't yet saved.
YOUR FINAL PRODUCT FOR WEEK 2 SHOULD CONTAIN EXAMPLES OF ITEMS a)
THROUGH e).
To turn in your (or your group's) work:
Close GarageBand.
Find and select your GarageBand file WITHOUT opening
it.
Go to File > Compress (whatever your GB
file is called).
This will make a .zip file of your GarageBand song.
Send the .zip file as an attachment to
andrewpfaff@gmail.com.
Your results will be available from this website
within a few days.
IF E-MAILING THE .ZIP FILE JUST DOESN'T WORK:
Get a project mentor. We will load the file onto a USB flash
drive and save it that way.
GOOD LUCK!
If you still wish to consult Week 1 directions, you can find them here.
