Hi,

Try these tricks in GarageBand:

1) How to select loops? I suppose you mean how to select them for editing after 
you have pasted them into the timeline, and the trick is to do a 
control-option-shift-space click on the region you want to edit. To do actual 
moving or editing of regions in the timeline, you do the commands for 
moving/resizing items that you find in your VoiceOver commands. Just remember 
to control-option-shift-space click first.

2) How to do panning? In the arrange area, find the first element, the track 
headers, interact with the instruments group if there is more than one 
instrument, and finally interact with the track. Find the pan button, interact 
with it and go left or right with VoiceOver. Be aware, that only using arrow 
keys here still move your play head, so you have to do an actual VoiceOver move 
to the left or right to do panning.

3) How to do fades? If you mean setting volume faders, you do that in the same 
place as you do panning. If you mean fader automation, the only one you 
currently can do is a master fade out with default settings, unless you do it 
manually.

4) How to add effects? When you have selected a track in the arrange area, 
either in the track headers, timeline or simply on top of the arrange area with 
your up/down arrows, you make the track info group visible with command-I, 
interact with the track group you find after the arrange group, and find the 
browse/edit buttons. If you are in a real instrument track, you can browse the 
presets by pressing the browse button and interact with the browser you find 
near by, or you can press edit and go further to edit each effect on the track. 
If you are in a software instrument, doing the same either browse through the 
preset sounds or gives you access to the setup of the instrument to shape a new 
instrument.

Hope this helps! Smile.

Cheers,
John André
