Garageband (iPhone)

GarageBand turns your iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch into a collection of Touch Instruments and a full-featured recording studio — so you can make music anywhere you go. And with Live Loops, it makes it easy for anyone to have fun creating music like a DJ, by triggering loops and audio effects in real time. Use Multi-Touch gestures to play keyboards, guitars, and drums. Enjoy Smart Instruments that make you sound like a pro — even if you’ve never played a note before. Plug in a guitar or bass and play through classic amps and stompbox effects. Use a Touch Instrument, microphone, or a guitar and instantly record a performance with support for up of 32 tracks. Audio Unit Extensions in iOS 10 allow you to play, record and mix third-party instruments or effects right into GarageBand. And share your song using email, Facebook, YouTube, SoundCloud, or AirDrop for iOS.

FUN FACT: Steve Lacy, a young musician who is currently a member of the band “The Internet” Produced the beat for the Kendrick’s track “Pride” from his latest record “DAMN” using GarageBand on his phone.

Lacy told Wired that he made beats all the time on his iPhone before he got access to a professional studio

“I got this piece called the iRig, I saw you could plug it into your iPhone, they got amps on here, see what cool guitar sounds I could get.”

The model Steve Lacy uses has a 3.5mm jack on it so he uses an old cracked, beat up iPhone for recording guitars and bass through the iRig and uses his iPhone 7 to listen and compose his tracks with.
