GarageBand is Broken

February 6th, 2006

I can’t believe this. I spent around 3 hours making a nice little podcast for you, but when i would go to export it out of GarageBand, it wouldn’t work. Now here’s the kicker… It would go through all the motions, but the file just would not be there when it was all done (and it takes about 15-20 minutes to go through the rigamarole of creating the chapters, making the mixdown, and converting the file). Tried several times, in various ways, different formats, yadda yadda.

So I end up going to the Apple Forums to see if I could find any help. No help… but plenty of people in the same boat.

Here’s a link to one of the forums talking about the problem (there seems to be at least three).

I’m more than a little pissed. This is the main reason I plunked down almost a hundred bucks for this program. I’m far from being a wealthy person…

Anyway…

No podcast today as promised. I am literally going to have to rerecord the entire thing, and I’m not even sure that will work in the end.

The Library

I've removed the little flash player that was here for now. It was causing some problems with the site in several browsers... okay... mostly it was IE6 because... well... I'm fairly sure that Microsoft hates me.

For now, you can view the Complete Library page, which is kind of a master list of every single track we've linked to.
