We love making music, but learning instruments isn’t quick or easy. That’s why we’re so fond of GarageBand’s magic instruments, and of Launchpad. Both apps enable you to experience and share the sheer joy of music without the whole sore-fingers frustration of traditional music-making.
That’s not to say serious musicians can’t use them either. They can and many of them do. But as we’ll discover in this tutorial, when you have an app like Launchpad, you can create music in any genre pretty much immediately, and that opens up music making to many more people. If you can hear a tune in your head, or just stumble across a bit of a melody by happy accident, Launchpad can make it sound like you’re a proper musical pro.
