Track controls such as volume, solo and mute can be shown by dragging the left sidebar to the right or hidden again by dragging back to the left, and pinch gestures can be used in main track display to zoom in or out on the timeline.Ī Loop button in the top-right corner of the Tracks view allows the user to select from over 250 professionally-recorded loops that can be browsed by instrument, genre or descriptor tags such as Cheerful, Intense and Acoustic. Tracks can be adjusted in length, moved around, or reordered simply by dragging them around on the screen. The Tracks view provides an impressive set of very intuitive touchscreen controls for rearranging and organizing track information. From the Tracks view you can add, rearrange and delete tracks, add loop tracks, adjust track volume and even copy and paste segments between tracks. Once you begin recording your first track, an additional control appears at the top of the screen to switch between the Instrument view and Tracks view. GarageBand on the iPad supports up to eight tracks which can be any combination of instruments and effects. After selecting an instrument, you can freely play and jam with that instrument or begin laying down a track with it as part of a multitrack recording. Starting up the app for the first time provides a simple Cover Flow style view allowing you to choose which instrument you want to work with. The iPad version also delivers four additional “Smart Instruments”-drums, bass, keyboard and guitar designed to allow even novice musicians to easily create great sounding rhythms and melodies. GarageBand for iPad includes basic keyboard and drum kit instruments as well as an audio recorder, sampler and guitar amp complete with a variety of stompbox effects. The iPad takes this a step further, however, with the implementation of “Touch Instruments,” built in keyboards, drum sets, guitars and synths that can be used to create music and accompaniment tracks. Like its desktop counterpart, GarageBand for the iPad is designed to allow users to create, play and record music and effects using multitrack recording and a variety of different sounds and instruments.
