Garage Band

Anyone good with it?
I figured out how to import a song from iTunes into it.
Trying to figure out how to cut the song for the portion I want.
I know how to send it back to iTunes after that but am missing that critical middle, ever so important part on the editing.

Not in front of my Mac right now and I don't remember the exact steps.

If you want to email me the song and let me know what section you need I would be glad to make the edit for you and email it back. PM me.

I truly appreciate it and in no way don't want to sound that I don't but I truly want to learn to fish so I can fish again some day.

Would be great if you and when you have a chance, post the steps in case anyone else is also interested.

Thanks in advance.

OK.

So you have the song in Garageband and it is showing up as a waveform on a track right.

Just drag from front to back or back to front on the waveform to leave only the part of the song that you want.

Then if you show the "Master Track" you can fade in and out by dragging the volume button up or down.

Good luck!

I was just fumbling with it before I saw your post.
Was sort of there but couldn't finish it.
I figured out how to shorten it but when I export it to iTunes, it goes as a full song and not what I edited.

Hmm. It works for me.

I imported an mp3, shortened it and then went to SHARE -> Send song to iTunes and it popped up in itunes shortened.

Did you try moving the shortened bit to the very beginning of the project?

you got an iphone now? great now I have to switch to ATT

Blueface · 01-28-2009, 10:00 PM

Got it.
What a neat program to chop up songs for ringtones.
Tough part was figuring out once I trimmed it, to move the song to the beginning and then took me a bit to make it fit the window allowed for ringtones.
All set.
Thanks.

With Garage Band, you can take any song, take the specific segment you want as your tone, and then send it back to iTunes to download to iPhone.
Neat stuff.

Do like I did.
Wait.
Who knows, by the time your contract is up, they may have even better generations and cheaper.
