Apple Updates GarageBand for iOS with iPhone and iPod Touch Support


Submitted by Dan; November 01, 2011
Today, Apple has released an updated version of their Garageband iPad application to have support for iPhone and iPod Touch alike. Before, Apple had Garageband restricted to iPad only, but now that's all changed. For the best, it appears. Philip Schiller, Apples senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing, states "GarageBand on iPad has been a big hit and we think customers will love using it on their iPhone or iPod touch. The innovative Multi-Touch interface combined with Smart Instruments makes it easy to create great sounding music, even if youve never studied music or played an instrument before." This updated version of the application includes:
  • Universal app designed for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch
  • Create custom chords for Smart Instruments
  • Support for 3/4 and 6/8 time signatures
  • Reset song key without transposing original recordings
  • Transpose songs in semitones or full octaves
  • Additional quantization options for recordings including, straight, triplet and swing
  • New audio export quality settings for AAC and AIFF (Uncompressed)
  • Arpeggiator available in Smart Keyboard
  • Adjustable velocity settings for Touch Instruments
  • Numerous enhancements, including automatic fade out and improved audio import options
GarageBand is available in the App Store for $4.99, with the new version 1.1 bringing iPhone and iPod touch support and several other enhancements.
