Production Of My Radio Show

To make my show is used Garage Band which is a program on the Apple Macs. The first thing that you have to when you are making anything on Garage Band you have to choose the instruments that you are going to use to make anything on the program. I used for my radio show Electric guitar, The shakers, Drum Kit, Stings and Acoustic band. Also there was the human parts which are the squares near the bottom of the picture the little speaker and the piece of paper with writing on it. All the little symbols have a red square around them and i used all those types of music to make my jingle. Once you have chosen what type of instruments you want to use then you can start adding music on to. Each different instrument is there own different track. To make anything you have two chooses what you can do is to get already made tracks and put them into your track so you are collecting what other people have made and putting them into your jingle. This is good because it is not very hard and the results are often good. Or what you could do is to get the on screen key board on thew screen and you can make up your tune. Once you have done that you can put it in any of the instrument track that you want and it will play the notes in the instrument that you have chosen to put it in. This is much hard and you must be good at playing the piano because if you are not there is no tune to what you play and it doesn't sound very good. I have combined both i used a little bit of my own playing with what other
people have do to make my radio show which is the best way because i am not very musical.


This is a part of garage band. This shows all the musical instruments that i have used. It also show all the tracks that i used. It shows how hard anything is to do because there is a lot to do. It also show how long each clip is the longer the line the longer the tune goes on for.












This is the part where you can change and choose you instrument. This show what instruments i used. There are thing that you can do by using this part of Garage band. The volume bar and the bottom of each track means that you can make any of the instrument louder or quieter. You might have to do this because one of the track is to loud and it is drowning out all the other tracks. this could happen when you put one of the tunes which have already been made. What you can do with the track volume is when you press the little arrow at the end of the little squares on each track you can pull down a little bar underneath the track once you have done that you can change the volume at different parts of the tune this is done by click on the line at the point where you want to change the volume and a little circle will appear and you will be able to drag it down or up depends weather you want it to be louder or quieter at the point you want. What i did on mine is a dragged it down at the end of a tune and drag the next tune up so it would flow into the next tune. This means that the tune doesn't just stop and then a different one start it means the other one is slowly stopping and the other one is slowly starting.






















This is the part where you can choose what tunes you can put on. There are lots of different chooses like organ, guitars, once you have click on the instruments that you want you have lots of different chooses of what tunes you can put on to your jingles. Your can play then out load so you can hear them before you put them on to the track that you want.
