The past few lectures Professor O’Malley has been showing us how to use Garage band and how to create a piece of music for our final assignment in class. I’m not gonna lie I am incredibly intimidated by this program and having to create a piece of music with it. I think it is amazing how technology has changed over the decades and that we can have this kind of software on our computers as a free download for students to learn. The one thing that I really appreciate is the midi files that Professor O’Malley showed in class. I plan on using a country midi file for my final piece of music in this class. I am eager to begin working with garage band, but I a also have a feeling that I will become very frustrated with it while I am figuring the program out.
