Dean, I have a 3-year-old grandson who is your fan. You’re gonna like this. He can hardly say a full sentence without missing a word but he is crazy about garage band. He found it when messing with my iPhone while I was in a zoom meeting. Today, He asked to borrow my iPhone. I asked what for. He is not allowed. And, he said clearly that he wanted to watch Dean on you tube. I asked who Dean was and he said, clearly, Dear is garage band instructor. I gave him the phone. He found you in seconds. He watches your videos over and over and he likes you! I thought you would like to know how broad your audience is! Congratulations!

ha that is too cute and so fun to hear! I have my own little ones so I know that to have the attention of a 3 y/o is an honor! :P

This is perfect! I'm a songwriter and always wanted to learn this but was too pushed for time and energy. With Covid 19, I'm stuck at home with lots of time on my hands. Just ordered a Mac. Soon as it arrives I'm gonna get started. Thank you for making this so easy to understand. I'm excited!! Much appreciated!

BTW this was a fantastic tutorial.

@@lekinzie7743 Hey L E Kinzie! To locate the scoring function you click the scissor tool and then in the top middle of that edit window there are two buttons, one says "Piano Roll" and one says "Score", so you'll simply click the one that says score! Let me know if that works and if not feel free to send a message back! -Dean

I seriously doubt you can find any tutorials better than this fella. Honestly, as good as one on one in person.

Thank you for this beginner tutorial!! I have tried to figure out everything on my own for a few years and I did get some progress. But I always get frustrated and give up. Now after your thorough tutorial and since I have plenty of time at home, I'm so excited to get started on transforming my demos into elaborate projects!

I'm so glad I found your channel! Have been using GarageBand for years and most of the time I still have no idea what am I doing 😂 its good to learn all the basics and understand what every setting and feature does! Thank you!

Incredible tutorial! I have been using GB for years, and learned some valuable info from your bootcamp video - can only imagine how useful some of your other videos (such as the one about keystrokes and shortcuts) are.

Thanks for this video. I'm an elementary teacher and just got one of the old iMacs from my school. This video is very helpful with how to get started with GarageBand so I can apply it to my teaching.

Hi Dean, Just finished your Udemy course, Songwriting and Music Production in GarageBand, and felt compelled to give your course a rave. What a great course for someone just starting out. Concise, practical and immediately useful. Plus, it was entertaining too. Great job.

So great of you to put this together. I used to record ALL THE TIME (Audacity), then fell out of it. I’ve had my Mac for a couple years, but always was intimidated by garage band. This is a great video for me, and I thank you. Looking forward to getting back to it!

My audio interface came with some free DAW software but it seems very busy and confusing for me. I am a little familiar with Garage Band and feel like it's simple to use. Now thanks to you, I will become really good with it. Thanks so much. I have subscribed to your channel.

@@emmanuel.n8458 Hey Lucky Starr! Hmm interesting... I might start by doing a test recording by setting things up just like you did before and hitting record but just don't sing or make any noise. The goal of the test recording would to see how much outside noise is making it into your recordings. So after you complete the recording then solo that track and play back just that recording to see if there's any extra noise making it into the recording. If you hear drums or other instruments or the metronome in your test recording then you may want to consider holding your each phones on tighter or simply using earbuds or something with less bleed or even muting out the tracks that you are hearing in the test recording when you record. Hope that all makes sense and feel free to reach back out it if not! -Dean
