GarageBand: How to Be Creative
Here are 5 creative ways you can use the recording software on your computer (such as GarageBand, or Pro Tools, or Logic, or whatever) as an instrument itself. I used GarageBand to record and mix all the music in this video, but any modern software will be able to do some version of the stuff I talk about here. Affiliate links below. Stop motion animation by John Marty.

    If you want to hear a great use of the ring mod, check out Wayne Krantz, Keith Carlock, and Tim LeFebreve at the Iridium. At one point, Krantz scats while grooving with the most obnoxious ring mod sound.

    Z-Vex did not create the lo-fi pedal. Have you ever played through an Ibanez Lo-Fi pedal made in the late 1990's? I love that pedal and I'm very sad it's discontinued. I wish they would make a mini-version so I can put on my touring pedal board!

  • @BobcatOneManBand
    @BobcatOneManBand 14 днів тому

    I have an unusual setup, jazzmaster with flatwound strings tuned to C standard, 2 dynasonic pickups with 500k pots with treble bleed. I run the volume at 7 for almost clean, and 10 for fuzz. First in chain is MXR Classic 108 Fuzz into EHX Eddy vibrato set to a subtle warble into a tremolo that's on but dialed back into an MXR phase 90 that's on once to twice in a set into an MXR Carbon Copy mini that's set to a gnarly reverb like tone into a Tech 21 Liverpool pedal with the character knob up and the gain down (almost like a tiny champ acting up) into an SP Compressor to even out the fuzz and clean volumes. All that into a neutral Fender Rumble 100 amp. I love my rig! I'm on tour across the US for a two-year stretch!

After retireing ing the Philippines, I realized i had a perform vk that could be my interface to my wife's Mac Pro. So i started tinkering with GB. Trial and error and consulting UA-camr videos like yours got me up and running. You did so much in so little time! Your playing is amazing! Im a keyboard player who loves guitar even more. If you could help with how you get the mix to sound so clear. I go from good to bad audio wise on certain songs. Do know what happens from one to another. Thank you for your channel!

    • @CyberattackWorld
      @CyberattackWorld 15 днів тому

      thanks for the comment. my mixes have some issues, but I think the best thing I'm doing mix-wise is picking sounds that will combine well in the first place. for instance i already know what drum machine I like, so I start there, and then I don't record a guitar part unless the guitar sound already sounds good against the drum machine. that way i don't really have to EQ or tweak it very much later. and the fact that I crank out so many of these helps because I already have some sense of what my go-to sounds are and how they're going to interact

Someone gave me a Mac Pro computer, so I'm curious if I'll be able to learn how to use it. I have a Presonus Audiobox 44VSL interface. Is it asking my brain too much to learn Garageband and MAC this late in life? (Where have all those brain cells gone?) Turning 64 in September. It didn't take as long as i thought to get this old!

He's hiring me to go on the road to help with the Canadian part of his summer tour this August. At 81 he's still going strong. Bill Graham called him "the best kept secret in the music business". With 28 albums recorded it's hard to "pigeon-hole" his style. If you're up to it, check out some of his music. There's a lot to choose from. Thanks again... I'll hit the subscribe & like buttons.
