Cupertino, California Apple today announced GarageBand for iOS and iPadOS, the most popular music creation app in the world, now helps people unlock even more of their musical creativity with all-new Sound Packs from some. If you haven’t got GarageBand for iOS you can find it at the App Store. GarageBand now includes an expanded Sound Library with Sound Packs from some of today’s top artists and music producers.

The update is rolling out today, though at the moment it only seems to be on iOS, not the desktop version. iOS developer Ampify has had success in selling sound packs for its Launchpad and Blocs apps, so Apple may want to do the same for GarageBand. “You can easily manage your library as it grows, and GarageBand will even notify you when new sound packs are released and ready for you to download.”Īpple hasn’t revealed anything else about its future plans for GarageBand, but the Sound Library hub looks very much like it could become its own mini-store, either for selling its own content or that of third-party developers. “With the new Sound Library, you’ve got instant access to an incredible and expanding collection of free loops and instruments from right inside the app,” Apple says. Apple also confirms this is just the beginning of more of additional Touch Instruments, Apple Loops, Live Loops templates and instrument presets from the company, which it says will be released “periodically”. Remix sessions contain Live Loops grids with original tracks from popular songs.
Producer packs contain content similar to sound packs, created by well known producers and artists. Sound packs contain sounds, loops, and other kinds of content you can use to build songs.

Apple intends for the new packs to be a catalyst for music creation, with new in-app remix sessions from Dua Lipa and Lady Gaga including videos that involve the artists explaining the story. After you install GarageBand, three types of additional content (collectively called content packs) are available to download in the Sound Library: sound packs, Producer packs, and Remix sessions. A new update to the iOS version of the easy-to-use software today confirmed the addition of a new “Sound Library” where users can download additional free instruments, loops and sound packs for free.Īccording to a press release from Apple, the new library kicks off with free packs for Future Bass and Reggaeton styles alongside Beat Sequencer kits, guitar amp tones and more.
