  • Very unpleased with new update

    It automatically just deletes my drum files now and I have to re-record the entire session and now split tracks independently to edit them, 9/10 times still deleting said recorded tracks without a way to put them back in.
  • Great app would use again

    It’s very simple and straightforward, but sometimes a bit confusing. I use it a lot to record music, but the editing is a little too confusing. this is just me, Im not very good at recording
  • Glitching too much, and deleting perfect clips

    You guys need to fix the bugs IMMEDIATELY!!! I can’t take having to record something and when I want to edit the other clips mysteriously disappear and along with that, When I do have something recorded perfectly, it ends up glitching my voice out periodically. FIX IT, NOW.

    I like it overall it’s interactive and stuff but it is hard to navigait beyond the tools you already have.
  • Once a great app…now it’s buggy and doesn’t work

    There was a time when GarageBand was a fantastic free app from Apple. Now, simply trimming an audio clip causes endless crashing. Seriously, I can’t even trim a 10 second audio clip without the app crashing. I have tried re-installing, resetting, and everything under the sun. Something has gone wrong in quality control. This is no longer the gold standard of free audio editing apps it once was. Don’t waste your time.
  • Update Broke it

    Recording multiple takes now distorts the timeline into the ugliest thing I’ve ever scene. Borderline useless. How can they ship out an update in this condition is beyond me. Seems like it was done on purpose to force you to get Logic instead. Wild stuff right here.
  • Minor Glitches Recently

    I love this app to death bro, been using my whole music career. But it’s been starting to crash a lot lately. Every time I try to trim an audio recording it just completely gives up. Ruins the mood really, can you fix @apple?
  • It’s sad that they abandoned the app

    I am using it for years and it’s an amazing app that comes with the OS. Although, it is kind of sad that no significant new features have been introduced for years. I hope it will get some attention one day.
  • Crashes when adding a drummer track

    2
    By Gizmo Duck
    With GarageBand fully up to date on my M1 Mac Pro, in a simple project with 3 audio tracks, 4 minutes long, when I try to add a Drummer Track it just crashes every time… Shouldn’t this be an easily caught and avoidable bug with such a mature product?
  • Absolute garbage!

    This app keeps muting all my tracks, apple has no solution for this, so don’t waste your time. I have no faith in their ability to fix it.
