One of the top things about GarageBand is that it is a complete podium for composing and sharing song. All you need is the time and drive to learn the software - no college degrees required.

If you mix your own loops, or even easier, borrow pre recorded GarageBand loops, you can test, mix, re-record and master a stupefying variety of sounds, beats and special effects. All it takes to turn out slick quality tunes is a workstation.

Using loops in this way, you can weave tunes by adding to and building on your current content, if you want to know the fundamental process, here are some simple steps to get started

Set up Garageband on your system. You can download a free edition or if you want to make some more advanced tunes, you can get the full edition of the software, either on-line or at many retail stores
