Jan 26, 2014 NOTE: If you’ve updated to Yosemite, and you have the new GarageBand, see my NEW POST Use GarageBand 10.0.3 to Transpose a Song Imported from iTunes! My first post on transposing a song imported from iTunes was written in January 2009. It’s now January 2014. Five years later, the method has changed.
GarageBand User Guide for iPad
Each Touch Instrument has a set of track controls that lets you adjust its volume level, pan (stereo) position and effect levels. You can also solo the instrument to hear it by itself, quantise or transpose the recordings on the instrument’s track and change the master effects. You can save track control settings and use them on another track or in another project. A Touch Instrument’s track controls are available both when playing the instrument and when the track is selected in Tracks view.

Adjust the track’s volume and pan position

You can also automate track volume changes. When using volume automation, the Track Volume slider cannot be adjusted.
Adjust the track’s compression
A compressor smoothes the difference between the loudest and softest parts of a track, and can help the track stand out or sound more “punchy”.
Adjust the track’s treble and bass levels
Do either of the following:
Quantise regions in the trackGarageband Ipad Loops Transpose Online
You can correct the timing of recordings in a track to a certain note value (called quantisation). After you turn on quantisation for a track, any new recordings or loops you add to the track are also quantised.
Quantisation applies to all regions in the track for the current song section, but you can choose different quantisation values for the same track for different song sections. If you move or copy a region to a different section with a different quantisation value, the value appears as Multiple. For more information about song sections and quantisation, see Add song sections in GarageBand for iPad.
Transpose regions in the trackGarageband Ipad Loops Transpose Free
You can change the pitch of (or transpose) recordings or loops in a track up or down by semitones or octaves. After you turn on transposition for a track, any new recordings or loops you add to the track are also transposed.
Regions recorded with the Guitar, Bass or Strings instruments cannot be transposed.
Transposition applies to all regions in the track for the current song section, but you can choose different transposition values for the same track for different song sections. If you move or copy a region to a different section with a different transposition value, the value appears as Multiple. For more information about song sections and transposition, see Add song sections in GarageBand for iPad.
![]() Merge recordings in a track
You can merge recordings made with Touch Instruments to create more complex parts. When you turn on merging, you can record a part, and when the playhead starts again from the beginning of the section, record another part. The parts are merged into a single region.
The Merge Recordings switch is available when a track that supports merging is selected. By default, merging is on for the Drums, and off for the other supported Touch Instruments. Using Merge Recordings, you can also record notes for an instrument, then record changes to knobs and other controls separately and have the two merged.
Take Recording and Merge Recordings cannot both be activated at the same time. For more information about take recording, see Record multiple takes.
Change the master effects
Each song has a set of master effects, including master echo (delay) and master reverb. You can choose the master effects for the song, then use the Echo Level and Reverb Level sliders to control how much of the master effects is added to each instrument in the song.
Adjust the track’s master effect levels

If like me you’ve all but exhausted the existing loops that come pre packaged with Garageband through hours of experimentation and recording, adding new sounds is definitely something you’ll want to do.
Trouble is, Apple haven’t exactly made it obvious HOW to add new loops to your mobile library…
In the video below, I walk you through how you can quickly add new loops to Garageband, so you can get right back to doing what you do best – creating awesome music on your iDevice!
