Tutorial 1: Creating, Playing, and
Saving GarageBand Projects
GarageBand projects hold your music and all the changes
you make.

timeline, and play the project to hear your music.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to:
 Create a new project
 Set the project tempo, time signature, and key
 Play the project
 Save the project
Creating a New Project
You start working in GarageBand by creating a project. Projects hold your music and all
the changes you make. When you create a new project, you set the project tempo, key,
and time signature. You can change these settings later in the LCD (liquid crystal
display) or the Track Info pane.
To create a new project:
1 Choose File > New.
2 When the GarageBand screen appears, select Create New Music Project.
3 In the New Project dialog, type a name for the project in the Save As field, and then
browse to the location where you want to store the project.
