About GarageBand

GarageBand is a streamlined digital audio workstation (DAW) and music sequencer that can record and play back multiple tracks of audio. GarageBand also offers the ability to record at both 16-bit and 24-bit Audio Resolution.

GarageBand includes a large selection of realistic, sampled instruments and software modeled synthesizers. These can be used to create original compositions or play music live through the use of a USB MIDI keyboard connected to the computer, an on-screen virtual keyboard, or using a standard QWERTY keyboard with the "musical typing" feature.

Headed by musician and composer Aram Rián, Tumo Music is a series of workshops run by both local and international musicians. Tumo students with an interest in learning more about music theory, production and performance receive hands-on training in creative songwriting, digital composition, arrangement, recording and mixing. Students advance across three skill levels, eventually having the opportunity to collaborate with other Tumo students to create music for short digital media, animation and game development projects.

A selection of completed Tumo Music workshops:

"Loop-Based Music Creation," led by Joe Khajadourian

"DigiMuzix," led by Aram Rián

"Beat Making," led by DJ Serjo

"Hip-Hop," led by Misho

Music for Atom Egoyan's production

Tumo Music also boasts two regular iPad-based musical groups comprised of a number of talented Tumo students (aged 13 to 18): TUMOBand (coordinated by Narek Stepanian), which performs contemporary instrumental and vocal music, and TUMOrchestra (coordinated and conducted by Aram Rián), the first iPad orchestra in the region, which performs symphonic and jazz music using solely iPads.
