With GarageBand, you have the ability to record and create professional-quality music. However, to make your finished songs actually sound professional, you need to understand the fine art of mixing music.

Fortunately, GarageBand's interface includes an easy-to-use Track Mixer with controls for volume level and pan position.

In the last lesson, you arranged a song in the Timeline using basic and advanced music arrangement techniques. Your goal in this lesson is to take an arranged song to the next level to make it sound like a professional composition. To accomplish this, you'll need to apply professional mixing techniques, including balancing volume, panning, fixing timing, changing velocity, and adding effects.
