It is a lighter, amateur-oriented offshoot of the more professional-oriented Logic Pro. GarageBand was originally released for macOS in 2004 and brought to iOS in 2011. The app's music and podcast creation system enables users to create multiple tracks with software synthesizer presets (to be played on a MIDI keyboard and/or sequenced on a piano roll), pre-made and user-created loops, an array of various effects, and voice recordings.

== History == GarageBand was developed by Apple under the direction of Gerhard Lengeling. Lengeling was formerly from the German company Emagic, makers of Logic Audio (later renamed Logic Pro). Apple acquired Emagic in July 2002. It developed GarageBand as a lighter version of Logic Pro (with the intermediate application Logic Express offered for a brief period), and each version of GarageBand resembles the current version of Logic aesthetically in addition to featuring its audio engine.
