Garageband Resources?

[TheIntermediate]

I'm new to Mac. I've done a good bit of recording over the last 5-7 years using a variety of different DAW programs but I've never used Garageband. I'm hoping I can some decent recordings with Garageband and my Yeti Pro but there seems to be unexpected dearth of up-to-date resources to aid in learning the program.

Googling for Garageband books brings up a lot of stuff that's mostly outdated and poorly reviewed.

Can anyone help?

There is of course the learning program (One on One) Apple offers at their local locations. They'd be able to lay a decent foundation.

It probably seems so now but it's not a particularly difficult program to get a grasp on. An evening of "poking around" should get the ball rolling. There is also some pretty informed users here. Post a question or two and see where you get!

You may want to look in to Lynda.com. It is a pay service for all types of educational material. They have Garageband and general recording info sections that have a lot of great stuff.

here is a link to fairly recent garageband tutorials on youtube. also check on the apple site for their tutorials as well as the garageband discussion section so you can ask questions.
