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

I think the thing to keep in mind, here, is that a tool is only as good as the person using it. If you're a Garageband guru, then chances are you can make stuff sound much better there than just dabbling around in high end suites...

Personally, it all comes down to ideas. The question is, which tool can assist your creativity and ideas the fastest? For example, I'm learning a lot about various packages out there - and it seems to me that it works best to use Garageband/Reason as a sketch pad of sorts, then using MOTU Digital Performer/Logic/Pro Tools for more involved work, and maybe even Bias Peak for cleaning up the finished product.

As artists, I think it helps if we consider what we're trying to achieve. Take me, for example. I've spent a lot of time dabbling, but not enough focusing on really creating (which I am working on doing, believe me!!!) with the tools at hand. And really, if you are looking for a home, having tools and lumber doesn't work too well if you haven't used it to build walls and a roof.
