Tutorial To Using Garageband

When creating the Modern London News theme music I used these simple rules to help create it. Due to my knowledge of the programme through previous projects in Media, creating a simple jingle was straight forward.

Firstly, I browsed the existing loops to look for a bass melody, with a simple 'drag n drop' I placed the piece in a separate track. To control the track fading in and out, I used the 'Track volume' slider which allowed me to choose when I thought it appropriate to fade the track out. This technique was followed throughout the other tracks.

Once I had completed the music I saved it as an audion file and added this to the opening sequence.
