“How do I know if I have the right gear?”
– Great question! Upon signing up, you’ll receive a welcome email that contains your very first assignment: making sure you’ve got the gear that best suits you! We simplify it so you don’t have to spend time researching, but keep in mind that if you don’t currently own recording gear you WILL be spending a bit of money on gear. This will make sure you’re set up and ready to go by the time we start the course. If you have questions about budget, email himself [at] garygrundei.com and we’ll answer your questions.
“Do I need a Mac to run GarageBand?”
– Technically, there are ways to install and run GarageBand on Windows. Because Apple makes GarageBand and does not officially support a version of GarageBand for Window, there’s not one official way to make this happen. Some brief research online will show you how a number of others have managed to make it work, but we will not be covering how to do this. GarageBand is free for Mac computers, so if you have a Mac, it’s as easy as opening up your app store and downloading (if GarageBand is not already installed on your computer). If you have Windows (or a PC running another operating system) and are successfully running the latest version of GarageBand, then great! Join us! The lessons we offer cover working within GarageBand so nothing should be different for you.
