Lynda.com today announced “Learning Apple GarageBand,” a movie-based tutorial designed for people who want to quickly get up to speed with Apple’s new music-creation software. “The training begins with an overview of the GarageBand interface and quickly advances to cover topics such as working with Apple Loops, creating and editing MIDI tracks, and recording real instruments. Users will then learn to put everything together by mixing their songs and exporting them to iTunes for sharing with the world. Exercise files accompany the training, allowing users to follow along and learn at their own pace.” The title offers over 5.5 hours of training and is available now on CD-ROM for US$39.95.
