Truthfully, any more than 6 plug-ins per track is a bit overkill anyway, on many of them, I’ll only have 3-5 running at one time.Īnother thing to add is that if you have a bunch of different Audio tracks, for instance, you’ve recorded 6 different guitar parts and then 1 bass part, you want to make sure that you’ve turned the yellow Monitoring button off on the in-active tracks.Īs I explained in my article all about latency, this has the added benefit of also helping with the elimination of lagging audio which is obviously incredibly annoying. It’s also worth noting that plug-ins actually take up a lot of energy, so if you have 15 different plug-ins turned on on 14 different tracks in Garageband – by the way, I have a guide that shows you the trick for adding more than 5 – you’re taxing your computer’s power by quite a bit. This will shut down everything on the computer and then when you open Garageband, the software will have the entire computer to itself. Google Chrome and other browsers tend to take up a lot of memory, so it’s worth shutting them down.Īnother thing that you can do is restart the computer entirely before you turn on Garageband and get ready to start making music. This one is self-explanatory, you just want to turn off any other running applications in the background, whatever they may be. 2) Put inactive parts of your hard-disk to sleep.Ī) To do this, you want to go into the System Preferences which looks like the gear icon at the bottom of the screen.Ĭ) Check the box that says, “Put Hard Disks To Sleep When Possible.” 3) Shut down other energy-intensive programs. 8) Delete Garageband and then Re-Install it.Ī) To do this, click on Track in Garageband’s toolbar, or use the command, (Option + T).ī) From here, you want to click on the option, “Configure Track Header.”Ĭ) Then check the box that says, “Lock Track,” on any of the tracks that you don’t intend on changing at the moment.Īpparently, what this does is that it creates a small audio file of the locked track, which means that it plays back the audio file as a saved file, rather than processing all of the information in MIDI or Audio format.7) Ensure your computer isn’t overheating.6) Plug your charger into the computer while using Garageband. ![]() 5) Use an external hard drive for old files. ![]()
