Welcome to this course on Home Recording! In this course we're going to look at how to set yourself up for Home Recording. We'll look at what software and hardware you'll need to get yourself up and running, and also some basic principles and practices for recording your music at home.
In this course we're specifically looking at using GarageBand, but if you are using another software package for recording (such as Reaper, Cubase or Pro Tools), the content in this course is still relevant - you'll likely just find that the same things can be found in different places when using other software.
