If you’ve selected “normalize” things sound fine, but usually the volume is way to low. You end up getting better results because when you export via Garageband usually one of two things happen. mp3) directly from the Mac Core Audio itself. wav file (that you can easily convert to.

Update 4/9/11 – What I’m doing now for my Garageband projects is using a program for Mac called Wiretap Studio.

If that’s the case you need to go to Track>Show Arrange Track and click that, and then it will show up. Update 4/30/10 – I just realized when I made “Quiet Town” today and needed to do the same thing that that little “+” below where it says “Mixer” at the top may not show up depending on your settings.

Feel free to ask me any questions in the comments. I guess I wouldn’t have this problem if I did a count in, but even then, I think a count in is only one bar, and I usually need two before I’m ready to record. I needed a way to move all the tracks simultaneously, which is a terrible pain to do individually especially if, as is usually the case, many of the tracks aren’t “joined” and even then, there’s the problem of the meta data. And then when I’m done, I may have eight or nine tracks that need to be moved, along with their data to the actual beginning of the timeline or else when I exported it, the export would take that silence/noise with it. This can be done anywhere in a song, but it occurred to me that usually when I make a recording I’ll have one or two bars at the opening of the song thats filled with silence or noise from getting ready to cut the take.

Just moving the tracks themselves by dragging them doesn’t do this. Moving the meta data is important if you’ve created customized volume or panning sliders for individual tracks. This does a Delete + Move function so the area you want to get rid of dissappears and moves the entire rest of the song, including each track’s “meta” data, neatly together.

Click the region to highlight it in blue and then hit your delete key.

I think it defaults to 4 bars, but you can take your cursor and make the arrange region any size you want.

Click the “+” at the top of the App Window just below the “Mixer” heading to create an “Arrange Region”.
