Garage Band

Blueface · 01-28-2009, 10:49 AM

Anyone good with it?
I figured out how to import a song from iTunes into it.
Trying to figure out how to cut the song for the portion I want.
I know how to send it back to iTunes after that but am missing that critical middle, ever so important part on the editing.

Not in front of my Mac right now and I don't remember the exact steps.

If you want to email me the song and let me know what section you need I would be glad to make the edit for you and email it back. PM me.

I truly appreciate it and in no way don't want to sound that I don't but I truly want to learn to fish so I can fish again some day.

Would be great if you and when you have a chance, post the steps in case anyone else is also interested.

Thanks in advance.

Got it.
What a neat program to chop up songs for ringtones.
Tough part was figuring out once I trimmed it, to move the song to the beginning and then took me a bit to make it fit the window allowed for ringtones.
All set.
Thanks.

With Garage Band, you can take any song, take the specific segment you want as your tone, and then send it back to iTunes to download to iPhone.
Neat stuff.

there is an easier way to create ringtones (i may have missed the posting on this)

there is an option on the menu...cycle region the shortcut i believe is 'c'

select that option (or press c) and a little yellow bar will appear underneath the time "ruler"

drag it over the region desired and size it so that it encompasses the desired length of audio (not sure the exact time limit for iphone ringtones)

then you can export it directly to itunes as a ringtone

Garageband is an awesome tool, and outside of making ringtones, i've dabbled in doing some digital recording in it...if you want the PC equivalent i suggest Fruity Loops or ProTools...

while simple to use, it is powerful...here is a peek at my old setup

there are plenty of options to chop ringtones for pc... what phone do you have?

renton20 · 02-03-2009, 08:58 PM

There is a much much easier way to get free custom ring tones my friends. Check out myxertones.com You upload a song from your library, do any editing that you want and then it sends it to your phone in the form of a text message. For some phones it works differently than for others but for my LG shine it works great.
