GarageBand users can learn how to create musical compositions from anything – vocals, guitars, MIDI keyboards, and even the kitchen sink – with the help of Take Control of Recording with GarageBand, the latest ebook by Seattle musician Jeff Tolbert.

An excerpt from Tolbert’s previous book is featured in the Synthtopia article, GarageBand Tips and Tricks.

Tolbert helps readers get the most out of their gear (or buy appropriate new gear) while explaining how to plan a recording session, how to record with Software Instruments or Real Instruments, the best way to rerecord if necessary, and how to apply effects like a pro. The 106-page ebook also includes audio examples, numerous real-world tips and recording studio techniques, and two sample songs that demonstrate the techniques discussed.

Take Control of Recording with GarageBand, the sixteenth ebook in the Take Control series, complements Jeff’s earlier ebook, Take Control of Making Music with GarageBand, which has helped thousands of readers combine and edit the loops included with GarageBand. The two ebooks may be purchased together at a $2.50 discount. As with all Take Control ebooks, any minor updates necessary to keep Take Control of Recording with GarageBand current are free to to all customers.
