So, interact with the bar control and increment to the desired value.Ģ.
Looking at our chart above, we see that we want to paste the first chorus region into the area of the timeline which starts at 49 bar, 1 beat, 1 division, 1 tick. By using VO+left or right arrow keys you can change the value of the bar control. Focus is now on that control so interact with it. For now, select "1 bar" and press the return key. You can interact with each of these in order to make increasingly smaller adjustments to the playhead position. The next four items in the search results list are "1 bar," "1 beat," "1 division," and "1 tick". Arrow down until you hear "1 bar, 1 beat, 1 division, 1 tick". Now, use the VO+I command and enter "bar" to search the screen for occurances of "bar". Remember that we were just interacting with SoCal in the Track Contents group and that we cut the chorus region and placed it on the clipboard. The 7th 16 bars start at bar 97, beat 1, division 1, tick 1 (3rd chorus)ġ. The 6th 16 bars start at bar 81, beat 1, division 1, tick 1 (2nd chorus) The 5th 16 bars will start at bar 65, beat 1, division 1, tick 1 (4th verse) The 4th 16 bars start at bar 49, beat 1, division 1, tick 1 (1st chorus) The 3rd 16 bars start at bar 33, beat 1, division 1, tick 1 (3rd verse) The 2nd 16 bars start at bar 17, beat 1, division 1, tick (2nd verse) The 1st 16 bars start at 1 bar, 1 beat, 1 division, 1 tick (1st verse) Sorry but it will take some basic math and some planning ahead to build up a drum track. Note: Since the initial verse and chorus regions are each 16 bars in length, think in multiples of 16 with regard to the timeline. But in order to keep the math simple, we will shorten the first verse region as the final step in creating our drum track. The first of these three verse regions will eventually be cut down into a 2 bar verse region which will become the 2 bar intro. The first thing to do is to place the chorus region farther along the track timeline in order to make room for 3 verse regions.
#GARAGEBAND RINGTONE TEMPLATE HOW TO#
Okay, as an example I will describe how to build up a drum track consisting of a 2 bar intro, two 16 bar verses, 1 16 bar chorus, 1 more 16 bar verse and 2 final 16 bar choruses. Press the return key to send the playhead back to the beginning of the track. If not, press the spacebar and let the drums play for a few seconds and press spacebar again to stop playback. You should hear "1 bar, 1 beat, 1 division, 1 tick". Now, press the return key to send the playhead to the beginning of the timeline. (These levels of subdivisions allow for very fine adjustments to the playhead position.) Each beat is subdivided into 4 divisions, and each division is subdivided into 240 ticks. In 4/4 time which is the default for the Songwriter project, each bar is subdivided into 4 beats. Before cutting it, the chorus region started at the beginning of bar 17 and extended through to the end of bar 32. The verse region begins at bar 1 and extends through to the end of bar 16. We will come back to it later.Īs I previously mentioned, the two initial regions were 16 bars long for a total of 32 bars. Remember that the chorus region has been cut and is now in the clipboard. Check that the chorus region has really been cut by trying to cycle through the regions as described above. Select the chorus region and cut it using Command+X. This concept of which region is currently selected is critical to performing edits.ħ. When you hear chorus, the chorus region is selected. When you hear verse, the verse region is selected. Again, use VO+left or right arrows to cycle between the two regions. Each happens to be predefined to be 16 bars long. Using VO keys+ left or right arrows you will cycle through two regions named Verse and Chorus. SoCal is already selected since it is the only track. Press VO+right arrow until you hear Track Contents group and interact with it.Ħ. Stop interacting with Track Headers group (Shift+VO keys+up arrow). (Select a track to be deleted and press Command+Delete.)ĥ. For the sake of simplicity, delete all tracks leaving just the SoCal drum track. Press VO+right arrow until you hear Track Headers group and interact with it.Ĥ. Don't worry right now about key or meter settings.Ģ Press tab key until you hear Tracks Group and interact with it. Create a new project using the songwriter option. To edit a drum track and to create and record an audio track do the following:ġ. What follows is very detailed so I hope you can follow my explanations. If you discover faster ways then please share with this group. There is undoubtedly more than one way to do this but here is one way that works. Folks, because I really struggled with learning to use GarageBand with VoiceOver myself, I want to share some basics with you.
