Read More »Can Garageband be used professionally? This is a common question that people ask, due to the fact Garageband and its users are, in a way, kind of stigmatized by other music producers. Garageband can be used professionally; there’s no question about it, considering some big names in the industry have used the software to track entire albums and hit songs. As an added point, it also depends on what you mean by “professionally.” I use Garageband all of the time for my music, and I do mixing and very basic mastering for clients. Moreover, taking some of the most popular songs of the day as an example, Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road,” is a beat that could easily be made with Garageband’s interface. You don’t even need to use a MIDI keyboard to make it, although, having an understanding of the piano would certainly help you (PianoForAll is the best for this – check it out). By the way, I’m always on the lookout for deals in the music industry (there’s usually something if you know where to look). Right now, there are 3 deals that stick out to me There’s no shortage of artists and performers who have used Garageband to create entire albums and hit songs, especially with Apple Loops which are royalty-free. We’ll discuss some of the bigger names in the industry below. With that said, however, there can be some issues with other artists who have also used Apple Loops, and if you upload your music to YouTube, another artist can hit you with a copyright strike, but you can dispute it using my guide as a reference. Most people, especially those who have never used it before, are often shocked when they try it out and discover that it’s actually sophisticated in its functions and capabilities. For instance, you can use EQ, compression; there is automation, and nearly all of the capabilities that Logic Pro X has, Garageband has as well, although, typically in a simpler format. The primary difference between Logic Pro X and Garageband is that Logic Pro X has more sophisticated parameters of the functions Garageband has. Using the compressor as an example, the Logic Pro X compressor has way more functionalities and settings which can be utilized for really fine-tuning your audio tracks. Take a look at the compare-and-contrast pictures below between Logic Pro X’s default compressor and that of Garageband. You can clearly see that the Garageband compressor is far less sophisticated in its parameters, however, the function is inevitably the same.

Learn More »Taking the example of the song, “Umbrella,” by Rihanna, and you’ll notice this track uses the “Vintage Funk Kit 03” at approximately 90 beats-per-minute. According to an article from Hypebot, there have been many artists who used Garageband to make popular music, including the aforementioned Rihanna, Usher, Grimes, Steve Lacy, Juliana Barwick, George Pringle, and Justice. Justice, a producer/DJ duo from France, actually made their album, Cross, with Garageband and I find that pretty interesting because it’s probably my favorite electronic-music album of all time. This should also answer the question whether you can publish songs made with Garageband or not, which I’ve actually written about before. Also, take into consideration that in the 1960s, for example, artists didn’t have nearly the capabilities that we do today. There was a time when everything was done using analog equipment, and editing features weren’t nearly as sophisticated as they are now. There was a time when you literally had to re-do a part likely dozens or even hundreds of times until you got it right, and to make matters worse, over-dubbing was more complicated than it is now. Using the Quantizer function is another example of this (my guide). Quantizing is a useful feature in which we can quickly snap MIDI notes – as well as regularly recorded tracks – and simply pull them to the grid so that they’re perfectly on time. Nobody in the 1960s, the 70s, the 80s, or even the 90s had access to these tools, and now, users can have these amazing capabilities without even having to pay for the software! It’s truly an amazing time to be into music. Some people also incorrectly believe that Garageband users are limited to the stock plug-ins, but as users of the software now, you can actually download other plug-ins online by using my guide. There is a plethora of plug-ins and software that work with Garageband as well, including Amplitube 5 from Plugin Fox, which is a guitar amplifier software, as well as programs like Superior Drummer (also from Plugin Fox). The main disadvantage, as I mentioned above, is that there is less we can do in the area of audio manipulation, but for the most part, the vast majority of the things that can be done in Logic Pro X can also be done in Garageband. The Rolling Stone even did an article in 2019 about Garageband and what a great app it is to use on your iPhone (this is the one I recommend from Amazon, by the way). According to the outlet, T-Pain made his entire 2005 album, Rappa Ternt Sanga, using Garageband. Fall Out Boy as well stated they preferred to use some of Garageband’s virtual instruments over the real thing. Patrick Stump said in past interviews that they had many of the instruments created in real-time, but they ended up just using Garageband’s instruments because they liked them better. Perhaps, one of the more interesting aspects of the software is that John Mayer reportedly played a role in its creation.
