How to Edit Singing in "GarageBand"
When you are working on a song on your Mac with GarageBand, you may determine that you need to edit the singing. GarageBand is a free application that Apple installs on every recent Mac. You can use GarageBand to record instrumental music and people singing. You can adjust the sounds, instruments and tempo of a song, as well as edit the vocals. For example, you could remove a section of singing that you don’t want to use, or you could copy a section of singing if you want to repeat it in the song.
