Garageband Automatically Transposing New Tracks

I've been using Garageband to produce my own stuff for a while, and all of a sudden the other day, my tracks started automatically transposing.


I haven't touched the key of the session at all, and when I go to the track editor, the box "Follow tempo and pitch" is always unchecked, and then somehow automatically checks as soon as I record something. Even when i uncheck the box, it is still transposed.


I would love it if this issue is fixed, I've tried restarting Garageband, I've tried making a new session, new tracks, everything. Even on my old sessions with my normal settings if I try to record a new track they are transposed. Please Help!!

Perhaps if some clues as to which device, product and/or its

associated operating system were in use, then someone may

venture a guess. I've not used GarageBand in maybe 15+ yrs

and then only with Mac OS X or early Intel-based Mac OS.

REPORT via Apple Feedback Site Forms Please!


While an iOS version at one point, was rumored to exist; that

never crossed paths in my travels. I'd suggest an idea to at

least tell Apple about your experience, with Apple Feedback.


Product Feedback - Apple

//www.apple.com/feedback/


Maybe least let someone at Apple directly know what you've

found; with specific details about your Apple build products.


Because to report an issue or an unusual finding officially to

Apple requires attention to detail, please refer to your product

and its hardware build year association; what it is, and what it

runs in exactly. This may require two reports, one for Hardware

and another for its Software. That way, someone may find the

association: between these. Like two cross-hairs, on a target.


"Use the form(s) below to send us your comments. We read all feedback

carefully, but we are unable to respond to each submission individually..

..If you provide your email address, you agree that we may contact you

to better understand the comments you submitted."


Feedback - GarageBand for iOS and iPadOS - Apple

Feedback - GarageBand - Apple (combines two fields)


As the Hardware (macbook air, iMac, etc; iPad, iPhone) may

contribute to narrow the field of software issue; to some part.

1] Feedback - macOS - Apple 2] any other hardware + OS.

Forms within these topic areas may allow for more choices.

May also include 'non-Apple hardware' where those exist.

Such as strange hybrid, or a Frankenstein linux reptile?
