Then I'm going to do the Plus button again and choose 5, I could choose 5 and 6 but there is no track 6, 5 to get that last microphone that's only one track. Hit the Plus button to create a new track and also choose that as audio. I'll hit Create and I get a track here that's going to listen in on that microphone. Now I know that the first two, 1 and 2 are the left and right stereo inputs from one microphone. You can see there are five different inputs here. Now with All Mics selected I can click here and I can see the different inputs. I'm going to go from System Setting to All Mics which is the aggregate device that I created. So I'm going to click that and that will open up GarageBand Preferences and allow me to choose the input device. You can see here I can choose the instrument. Now in GarageBand I'm going to start an empty project and I'm going to start off with one audio track using a microphone. In other words it's going to try to adjust the timing so everything is in sync. Notice that Drift Correction is checked off for the ones that are not set as a Clock Source. I can choose my Sample Rate if that's important to me and see all of the different devices here and which channel they map to. So it probably doesn't matter but I'll choose this one here.

Now I get to choose which one is the Clock Source which basically means which one is running the show here. One of the microphones only has a single channel.

Then here's the other one and I'll add that. Let's go in the list here and look for this microphone here and I'll add that. So I only want to look at things that have inputs. So I'm going to name it All Mics and I'm going to add here in this list all of the mics I want to include. So you want to use the Plus button here and create an aggregate device. This also has a headphone jack for you to monitor. Then here's another one, the main microphone that I use, and there's a set of 2 outputs and 2 inputs here. Here's another microphone and this has got 1 input and 2 outputs because a lot of times microphones includes speakers or listening devices or if it's like a headset like this, of course, there are outputs. So here's one microphone and it says 2 inputs.

Now here you're going to see every audio input and output device. If you just use Go to Utilities you'll go to your Utilities folder inside your Applications folder and you'll find it there or you can just search for it in Spotlight. So to do that you're going to run an app called audio midi setup. The first thing you need to do is build what is called aggregate device that's going to be a single input device that includes the channels from all of your microphones.
YOUTUBE GARAGEBAND RECORDING IMIC HOW TO
You can set that up using the audio midi utility that comes with your Mac and knowing how to set it up in GarageBand. So each microphone goes into it's own track. So say you want to use multiple microphones at the same time in GarageBand. Join us and get exclusive content at /patreon. MacMost is brought to you thanks to a community of supporters. On this episode I'm going to show you how to use multiple microphones simultaneously in GarageBand. Video Transcript: Hi, this is Gary with.
