How To Insert Regions In Garageband? Options

[Hugo Cole]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to insert track regions in Garageband without them copying over what's already at the insert point? Like when you want to record an extra section of a song and you don't want to split every track at the insert point to make the space for it first? Can't seem to find it in Help, and there seems not to be a section on Garageband in the Music Software section of these forums, which seems kind of strange.

Thanks

Hi Hugho - I can appreciate this. I am SUPER new to Macs and have found Garageband to be pretty amazing actually. I leave my Mac in my music room and everytime I come in here I find new music that my daughter has created. It's actually very good for a "Musical Lego" type of application. I was thinking about using Apple's Logic Pro but then I wondered, being a newbie, is that over kill? Shouldn't I just try and max out my functionality in GB? Well, this insert issue may be the very thing that will cause me to upgrade to something. I needed an Audio Interface to get my electric guitar and electric drum set (my daughters) into the Mac so I bought a ProSonus Firebox. It's pretty dang cool. It came with Cubase LE but since I'm using a MBP w/Intel, I'm kinda stuck with nothing but GB at this point. If anyone reading this can think of a new way to insert into the timeline, I'd be very grateful.
