December Event for Music Educators

Half day seminar to introduce you to Apple’s two music applications, Garageband and Logic Studio. These are complimentary tools that can be used to teach music to students of all ages and abilities. You will learn the strengths of both programs and where they fit best for the music classes you teach.

Jim Frankel from SoundTree will facilitate the Garageband segment from both a trained and untrained musical perspective. Participants will see the multiple facets of the application such as Magic GarageBand, GarageBand lessons and tutorials, multi-track recording with real and virtual instruments, effects, loops and Jam Packs. Jim will relate his years of experience in the classroom, showing just how effective and engaging Garageband can be including a variety of examples to use in the classroom.

Joining us to talk about Logic Studio is Jonathan Perl, from the Sonic Arts Center at the City College of New York. In addition to Jonathan’s college teaching, he is also an Apple Certified Trainer with Mac Audio Trainers. As you will see, for advanced high school and college-level musicians, Logic Studio opens up a variety of tools and refinements not available with Garageband. Logic Studio helps streamline the technical side of things, so you can compose, record, edit, and mix quickly at a professional level. Logic allows you to tap into a huge collection of software instruments, sounds, loops & effects, perform complex edits and subtle adjustments in a short amount of time, mix down projects of any scale with full automation and surround capabilities, generate scores or lead sheets, create new sounds and effects, and more. Jonathan will relate his years of teaching experience with practical examples of how this tool engages students and teachers alike, as musicians and audio designers.
