Greetings NearlyAHippy,


If you are having difficulty making edits in garageBand, begin by following the guidance found here:


Split regions in GarageBand on Mac - Apple Support


"Split regions at the playhead position

  1. In the Tracks area of GarageBand on Mac, select the region or regions you want to split.
  2. Move the playhead to the point where you want to split the regions, then do one of the following:
    • Choose Edit > Split Regions at Playhead.
    • Control-click a selected region, then choose Split at Playhead from the shortcut menu.
  1. The selected region is split into two regions at the playhead position. Only the selected region is split, even if a region on another track is under the playhead as well. If multiple regions are selected and are under the playhead, they are all split.
  2. Playhead over the selected region, ready to be split."


Take care.
