i didn't find this question on this http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/GBFAQ.html#commercialrelease site.
Have you seen this? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2931
"So don't worry, you can make commercial music with GarageBand, you just can't distribute the loops as loops."
I would think your use fits within "commercial music" as it is defined by Apple.
So where is the line of GB loop not being a GB loop anymore ? I just add very silent D maj7/9 on loop that is in D7 and now its a available for distribution ?
I wanna do short jingles for TV shows and was wondering...
When you are selling (or giving!) it as a *loop* and not as a *song* or *jingle*.
Sorry Keith, i do not understand what you mean. If i am selling it, at what point can i consider it to be safe ?
You don't have to add anything to be able to use Apple loops and jingles. The only thing you are not allowed to do, as Keith said, is to sell them as loops, i.e. to offer them the same way that Apple does and charge money for it.
By the way, adding a Dmaj7 to a D7 harmony must sound pretty awful, doesn't it?
