for some reason GarageBand ’09 has reverb on the voices by default in Podcasts – This quick lesson shows you how to turn it off. There’s a lot more wrong with GarageBand ’09 for podcasting – the metronome is on, it doesn’t show the timer, instead it shows beats per minute, and number of beats, all kinds of annoying things are set wrong for podcasting. I recommend using Will P’s fantastic AppleScript he calls New Podcast. If you use this application script to launch GarageBand all those annoyances will be shut off by default. You can find this and other scripts for free download at iwillsite.110mb.com
