The main highlight about GarageBand for Windows is having music beats arranged as loops on the interface so the loops become easy to manipulate when arranging a song. Manipulating the loops with the control keys on your device according to your selected beats will lead to the production of your song. Garage Band comes with instruments of a symphony orchestra and Boldt packages which are useful in making films. Filmmakers can utilise this feature for quality motion images similar to those produced in a studio.
This app gives the producer the freedom to choose their beats. Moreover, the beats and effects produced by the app directly blend to most music genres, the musical rhythms fit with the popular music, most upcoming and experienced musicians have confessed to having used the app more than one time.
GarageBand also allows you to record multiple tracks with the flexibility to add fades and effects to improve the quality of your music. Moreover, it incorporates other real instruments such as the guitar or bass to add quality and impact to your music. The effects produced by a combination of real musical instruments combined with the loops add new flavour to music as the beats are unique.

New Features in GarageBand
Apple improved the sound browser, making it further easy for the user to group the instruments intelligently. For instance, the “AMP” button helps in producing new, distorted, and bass guitar output. You will come across such arrangement for Strings and Keyboard. The update is lucid. However, there is further the possibility to refine the approach.
One of the weakest element of GarageBand was effects. The only available options were echo, reverb, and application of a compressor. However, the new update is providing a plethora of options from the menu. The EQ and plug-ins give you the possibility to add chorus, bit-crusher, and overdrive. Users receive granular control– separate sliders for the spread, pre-delay, high cut, reverb time, and wet or dry mix. The visual equaliser brought from the MAC version offers intuitive and tactile approach towards adjusting bass, treble, and gain.
The addition of Audio Units plug-in helps in processing the audio with ease. It was a standard feature in the MAC version. It is helpful in integrating effects and external instruments into GarageBand. Rather than choosing third-party applications to load the external instruments into GarageBand, the recent update allows you to ditch those and load them directly into the GarageBand application.
