By Bob "Dr. Mac" LeVitus, Mac Observer (via MyAppleMenu) A first look at GarageBandA first look at GarageBand 01/17/2004 10:42 PM My copy of iLife '04 arrived today and I've had a chance to try out GarageBand. GarageBandGarageBand 01/07/2004 03:10 PM I’ve been waiting 20 years for GarageBand. Back in the early ’80s, when I was a teenager—before there were even Macs—I had an Apple II Plus with a cool piece of software named ALF II. (This was even before the sitcom named Alf.) (Actually, it wasn’t just software: there was a card you had to plug into the computer.) It was something like an early, early GarageBand—you could create music and save songs and play them back. The music played through some car-stereo speakers I plugged in to the ALF card. You had to actually enter notes into a staff on-screen, using the twin roller-paddle-things that came with the Apple II Plus. (No mice yet, at least not for the mass market.) There was no way to plug in an instrument and just play. It had up to nine tracks, and it had some basic things like setting the synthesizer settings and telling sections of a track to repeat. It was cumbersome and the sound was totally electronic, but it worked. I made dozens of songs. I loved it. And I’ve been waiting 20 years for the chance to do that again. Sure, I could have had this already, but for a bunch more money. Since composing music was just a hobby for me, I never wanted to spend a bunch on music software. Now I don’t have to. This software excites me personally far beyond anything Apple has announced since OS X. More than iPhoto, iTunes, Safari, iPods, and everything else put together. Of course, I haven’t actually tried it yet, but it only has to be half as good as the demo to be a wonderful (to me, at least) piece of software. GarageBand and CCGarageBand and CC 02/10/2004 02:53 AM So Apple released this amazing new part of iLife, GarageBand. With it, you can make great music. (Well, I don't know about you, but I know Willem will make great music with it.) Anyway, one missing piece has been a simple way to know what content you're free to mix and remix within your GarageBand app. MacBand has now solved that problem. They've got a great archive of music by genre -- all marked with Creative Commons licenses. GarageBand 1.0.1GarageBand 1.0.1 02/12/2004 06:06 PM Clarifies specific alert dialogs regarding system performance. GarageBand!!GarageBand!! 01/22/2004 03:05 AM When Apple announced iLife '04 a couple of weeks ago, a common reaction was moaning over the price, which went from free to $49. Which is ridiculous...$49 is a steal for that bundle of software. After playing around with GarageBand this morning, I can report that GB alone is worth the price. I've never had this much fun with a piece of software before...I got my money's worth after 30... Apple: GarageBand 1.0.1Apple: GarageBand 1.0.1 02/12/2004 07:29 PM Apple's terse description of GarageBand 1.0.1 doesn't offer a whole lot - clearer alert dialogs. GarageBand 1.1 releasedGarageBand 1.1 released 05/17/2004 04:22 PM Apple has released an update to GarageBand, bringing the current version to 1.1. According to notes released with the update, GarageBand 1.1 addresses isolated performance and stability issues, allows per-track Echo settings similar to other effects, supports loop libraries in other disk locations, supports importing unprotected AAC audio files in addition to AIF and MP3 files, and addresses issues with ReWire support. In addition the update supports moving GarageBand songs between different computers, dragging entire tracks in the timeline and more. The update is available via the Software Update control panel.

Gruber on GarageBandGruber on GarageBand 01/07/2004 03:08 PM John Gruber: “What’s so cool about GarageBand is that it exemplifies the market that Apple is going after. People who want to use their computers to make cool things. People who want to be producers, not just consumers.” I’ll add one thing to that: of all the iLife apps, iTunes is the most important but the least interesting. It’s important for obvious reasons, because of iPods and the music store and that it runs on Windows. But it’s the least interesting because you don’t actually create music with it. You create playlists, sure, but that’s not the same level of creativity as creating the actual music (or taking pictures or making movies and DVDs). iTunes is like shopping in a really great art gallery, but it’s not the same as being a painter. GarageBand And PastingGarageBand And Pasting 05/18/2004 06:16 PM What happens when you select notes in one of GarageBand's Software Instrument tracks and paste them into an existing track? By Christopher Breen, Macworld (via MyAppleMenu) GarageBand ... rocks !!GarageBand ... rocks !! 01/07/2004 05:37 PM Lots of buzz today about Apple's iPod-mini, but for my money the highlight from yesterday was GarageBand. Great product and a great demo from Jobs and John Mayer (who I'm only luke warm on but he gave the demo some legitimacy). This is the kind of app that makes people shift platforms. I'm a mediocre-to-bad acoustic guitar player, but I'd still love to tool around with GarageBand. The other MacWorld item that looked good, though overdue, was the update to iPhoto that apparently allows it to overcome it's 600-or-so photos/library limitation. Apple is saying it handles 25,000 with speed. When...
