Music fans using GarageBand on both their Mac and iPad have a new software update to install, if they need better support for opening projects imported from the iPad version of the application.
According to a technical note on the official Apple website, GarageBand 6.0.2 improves overall stability and addresses a number of minor issues.
The release also includes “support for opening projects imported from GarageBand for iPad,” Apple says.
The Mac maker recommends that all users of GarageBand '11 (part of the iLife ‘11 suite) install this update.
GarageBand version 6.0.2 was posted March 31, 2011.
Weighing in at 47.44 MB, the new GarageBand version requires Mac OS X 10.6.3 or later and supports multiple languages, including Deutsch, English, Français, Español, Italiano, Nederlands, Dansk, Norsk Bokmål, Polski, Português, Português Brasileiro, Pусский, Suomi, Svensk, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
During its March 2 event hosted in San Francisco, California, Apple unveiled GarageBand for iPad, a stripped down version of the music creation and editing application originating on the Mac.
The mobile version of the app, compatible only with Apple tablets, allows users to create simple songs by employing a number of instruments.
GarageBand for iPad supports mixing up to eight tracks to create a song. However, those who want to take things further can send the project to their Mac and open it in GarageBand to continue refining their song.
Those who do this on a regular basis are encouraged to download today’s GarageBand update for Mac.
To get GarageBand on your iPad, be prepared to shell $5 on the iTunes App Store. The iOS app requires firmware version 4.2 or later, and works with both the original iPad, and the second-generation device.
