How To Create A Song In Garageband Ipad 1

Many songs are organized in sections such as intro, verse, and chorus. Each section is usually eight bars long, or a multiple of eight. When you create a GarageBand song, it contains one repeating section. You can add more sections, set the length of a section, and play back a single section or all sections.
