You'll now notice that you have two distinct portions of the song. The song will now split at that point (see pic #2). 5) With the correct track selected, go to the top of the screen and click on Edit -> Split. Musish is another fantastic alternative to iTunes. This will allow you to move the GarageBand cursor around to every and any second of the song. 4) Go to the blue box on the bottom of the screen with the measure numbers in it, click on the little music note button, and select 'time' (see pic). 3) Before splitting, MAKE SURE the track with the song in it is selected (see pic). 2) Stop the song a few seconds in (by pressing play again or hitting the space button). Note: you'll see the GarageBand cursor moving as the music plays. Heres how: 1) Press Play (or the space button)В to begin the song you have dragged onto the loop.

As long as you learn how to split portions of songs you'll get the idea. If you don't have Juicy J songs downloaded, it's ok. With GarageBand, you can split and cut Juicy J's verse from one song and then combine another one of Juicy J's verse from another song. Let's say you love every verse that Juicy J does in every song, but the rest of the song is terrible. SIDE NOTE:В You can play the song by clicking on the Play button on the bottom of the screen next to the red 'record'circle, and quickly go to the beginning of the song by clicking on the 'Start from Beginning' button. Now you have a song/track ready to listen to and edit. You'll see the beats (1, 2, 3) at the top of the screen. To do move a track to a specific time/beat, click anywhere on the song's track OTHER THEN the far left (you will see that would expand the track rather than move it) and move/drag it to the left so the song would begin at beat 1. Now, drag the song anywhere onto the portion of the screen in the middle where it says 'Drag Apple Loops here.' Now, you're going to want to move the song all the way to the left so it begins to play sound as soon as you preview the track. To use a song, click once on a song you want to use. You can listen to & preview your downloaded songs simply by clicking on the song, clicking the play button below the library, and then stopping the song by once again clicking the play (stop) button. Now, with your entire iTunes library open, decide what songs you want to edit, loop, merge, etc.
