How To Use Garageband (macOS) The Complete Guide (Udemy.com)

This course is awesome for me, cause i went in, using garageband with no experience and kind of learnt through my own trial and error. But seeing Nat explain in detail, with shortcuts and also with, the reason why certain things are used and with his own song as a sample/experiment/experience, has made it easier for me to understand and to know the knowledge and the reason behind certain functions of garageband and what they are used for.

I am extremely delighted to be doing this course, seems more like a "WAKE UP TO GARAGEBAND POSSIBILITIES" course! The course instructor, Nat Pike, is very competent and glides through from covering the basics to advanced features so well and seamlessly. I am very happy with his tutorials and I have no hesitation to recommend this course to anyone interested to learn more about this awesome nugget tucked inside a Mac.

Yes really well explained and thorough. Nat has a pleasant and relaxed style which comes from someone who has years of experience. He drops in nuggets of information which are probably not available from other courses. I highly recommend his course. He has saved me weeks and weeks of trial and error and shown me features which I would probably never find or be aware of. Thank you Nat!

Nice explanation in each video.However, the instructor had left few things like how to edit audio of any video and detail information of pan etc.

A fantastic introduction to Garageband for beginners covering all the important concepts and tools to produce professional quality results from this amazing free software from Apple. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly my skills improved from following this course and would highly recommend it. Thanks, Nat! I hope you continue to produce more courses...perhaps demonstrating Garageband/Logic in a studio environment with guidance on interconnecting professional hardware to the software. As an introductory package, this gets a straight five stars from me!

The course has been great. I have been able to muddle through at my own pace and Nat has delivered clear and excellent videos. I am far from being competant at the moment and I will have to go back and revisit some of the videos. However, I am optimistic and enthuastic that I will develop more skills the longer I stick at. Thank Nat. Terrific work!

Perfect! I am a total novice. A bit fast with the instructor's mouse and keystrokes for my slow brain but am keeping up okay. Thanks. 17th January 2021. Bit of a long gap but I am finding this tutorials very educational and informative. I am starting to better understand the potential of the GarageBand software and how powerful it is - even more so when you remember that it is a free package. WOW!!

Hello Nat, I wanted to pass along a heart felt thanks for offering such a well thought out Garageband lesson. I am old school in terms of MIDI with a studio full of stand alone Alesis equipment from the late 80s and early 90s which still works just fine to this day. I decided I needed to step up and move to the whole DAW recording world. I have an old 2008 iMAC that also still works just fine. It would only let me update Garageband up to 10.2.0, but it seems to be working good enough to learn with. I hope to update to a new MAC and load in Logic once I get a firm grasp of Garageband. I also discovered your YouTube channel just the other day and subscribed. Thanks again for all you do Nat!

This course was a game-changer for me. Not only did I learn pretty much every feature of Garage Band, the instructor was knowledgeable enough to convey some of the basics of mixing and mastering. I never understood mastering before, and I'm 46 years old and have played in bands and messed around with recording for decades. Now I finally get it.

This course is the perfect introduction to garageband. Nat is an experienced studio engineer who knows a lot about this software and music production: How to work with the midi instruments, how to record acustic instruments and vocals? How to use plugins downloaded from the internet? Everything is explained thoroughly and easy to follow. He even knows tricks that you can't find in the official documentation, e. g. how to convert a drum loop from the library to midi. And finally you learn how to mix and master your track. Lots of very useful and precious tips from someone who has years of professional experience in this field. And also important: He uses the latest version of garageband (2019/2020). Lots of other courses use older and outdated versions. I can only deeply recommend Nats course to anyone interested in recording his musical ideas and bringing his production skills to a higher level.
