Lyrics
If you want to make music with the GarageBand pack
You start a new project and you'll find just one track
It's always a piano but you change it to suit,
Like a trumpet or a clarinet or a gee-tar or a flute
There are two sorts of tracks you can choose to reveal
With instruments from software or ones that are real
The first you use MIDI and sounds that you like
The second you record with a mixer and mic
And when your song's ready and made MP3
You can upload it to MacJams for others to see.
With the keyboard or microphone you just play along
Add a track at a time and you build up your song
You can turn on a metronome to act as a guide
Then you play your nice music and you do it with pride
If the notes aren't quite right then click next to the eye
You can see all the notes as the music goes by
Then click with the mouse and you move them around
But only with MIDI and not with real sound
And when your song's ready and made MP3
You can upload it to MacJams for others to see.
You can keep adding tracks until you've got enough
Though an older computer might not play all that stuff
You can use each track's pan knob to put things in place
And add reverberation to give it some space
Then drag the little slider to balance the mix
And look at the help file to learn some new tricks
Export it to iTunes as an AIF file
And then you convert it to MP3 style
And now your song's ready and made MP3
You can upload it to MacJams for others to see.
