Salary Negotiation
Dealing with the salary question is often the most difficult interview question facing job seekers.
Most job seekers feel understandably anxious, embarrassed and uncomfortable when the time comes to discuss salaries. Advice such as "never bring up the issue of salary, let the interviewer say it first," is rarely helpful if you don't have any idea of how to respond when the topic does come up.
The Top Five Tips to Negotiating Salary in an Interview:
- Be prepared. Before going to the interview, it's crucial to research the company and salary range for the position you are applying for persons with your background and experience. Have a salary range in mind and be prepared to discuss these figures once salary negotiation has come up.
- Know your absolute bottom line. Know what your minimum salary range must be to support the life you want to live. So decide, before you go into an interview, what salary you want to earn, what you need to live on, and what you will be willing to settle for.
- Never discuss salary until you have a job offer. If you do, you could price yourself out of a job before the employer is convinced they need you. If pressed by the interviewers, tell them you're flexible and would be happy to discuss salary when you learn more about the job.
- When questioned about desired salary, the best response is one that returns the employer's ball back into his court: You can say, "what kind of salary range are you working with?" or "Well, I'd like to make as much as other employees with my qualifications." or "What is a typical salary for this position?" Another strategy is to avoid a specific salary and name a pay range instead.
- Don't say yes to an offer right away. Be enthusiastic and appreciative when you get the job offer, but ask for at least 24 hours to respond. This gives you time to get over your initial joy at being selected. If you feel the salary is insufficient, express your concern to the employer when asking for time to consider the offer. You'll find out right away whether the salary quoted is set in stone or is flexible.
Never underestimate the importance of negotiating salary in an interview. Employers tend to prefer those candidates who already earn a greater income. While these candidates cost more to employ, their higher incoming salaries are assumed to reflect greater competence, initiative and achievement. So it's in your interest to pursue income increases at every legitimate opportunity.

My SA 1911 TRP is my baby. I'll admit that. But recently I've been excited about getting a high-cap pistol as well. I currently have a SA XD-9, but I never take it anywhere because I don't have any type of holster for it other than the slide it came with. I'm also not a big fan of 9mm and actually bought it for my wife so that I could teach her the fundamentals of marksmanship with a controllable, yet full-size firearm. My hope is that Springfield Armory will come out with an XDm in 10mm. I'll probably spring for it when they do but I have to admit that the idea of doing seems a lot more expensive once I roll it around in my head. With the exception of the 9mm and my S&W 686, I've always bought 1911s (not compact) and they all work with all the holsters I have. Upgrading to a completely different frame means that I'll have to get a new Shoulder Holster, Belt Holster, and IWB holster as I carry with all these types depending on the situation. I never buy cheap holsters or gun belts either, so that means that when I get the new gun it comes with an additional $600 in gear cost. It is what it is, but it does make me more hesitant to buy. Anyone else feel the same way?

To me that really sounds like cart before the horse.
$600 will get you a lot of gear! I've never spent that much. I'm gonna vote for the handgun I want or need, then I'll find the right leather for it. Lots of options out there, except for the fact that most all of the good ones are really backed up right now.
I get the gun before the gear. I find the gun I want or need and then I match the necessary eqipment to it. I agree in not buying cheap gear but $600 will buy a BUNCH of leather. I've never spent anywhere near that much.
If the pain is lacking so is the discipline... "the only 911 call I need is chambering a round" - Mr. Muller, MO car dealer
Doesn't mean you have to buy all three style holsters for the new (non 1911) gun. You could buy one, and carry a 1911 when the situation demands otherwise.
________________________________________ "I'm your brother, just make it count."
If you go with "plastic" gear for your poly frame gun, you could easy get 2-3 holsters for around $100.
There is in life perhaps one fleeting moment when the courage, dedication and resolve of one man gambling against all odds will alter the destiny of nations.
Gun first then a Don Hume 721 OT. Already have three excellent gun belts from the Beltman. I have not spent 600 on three holsters and three belts. Sounds like fun but that $600 sounds a little steep.
"Honey, can I buy another gun?" "Why another gun?" "I just figured out that I am two guns short of never enough!"
"Guns don't kill people. Male Kennedy's kill people."
There are several types of holsters and holster makers that I favor. The gun comes first, then the holster(s).

As well as make cool software I also do icon, web and application design, with a focus on the Mac and iOS software market. My price for an application icon for Mac or iOS starts at £300/$500. For a bespoke quote get in touch and tell me what you need. I'm happy to offer discounts to students, hobbyists and non-profits.
As the first point of contact between your software and your customers, an application's icon is an important part of the user experience. For many indie developers their application's icon is also the most important part of their branding. With an ever more competitive landscape, it's crucial to stand out and try to convey as much of your application's identity and quality as possible.
Icons also play a key role within applications and their quality can have a large impact on the usability of your software. Is their meaning concise? Do they use sensible metaphors? Are the colours consistent and meaningful?
With years of experience in designing icons for both my own applications and my clients, I can help deliver you an excellent Mac or iOS icon, toolbar and button icons and other application graphics.
The recent "flat style" trend kicked off by Microsoft with their Metro design language and later adopted by Apple in iOS 7, means many developers are looking to update their icons to remove unnecessary elements and textures. Getting the balance right between detail and minimalism isn't always easy but we believe the middle-road as exemplified by our iKanji touch and iKana touch icons is the right approach for most applications. Retaining familiarity and friendliness while looking at home on iOS 7.
I'm often asked what is involved in designing an icon or website so here is a run down of the process.
Here are just a few of the clients I've worked with:
Advanced Power – website
Dusk to Dawn Software – icons
IOSPIRIT – icons
MK&C – icons & UI design
Occam HR – website
Nisus Software – icons
Reilly Technologies – icons
Snowdonia National Park – iOS app redevelopment
Syntori Software – icons
WerYoo – iOS app design consultation
Yahoo! – Mac app design consultation

I am always amazed when people ask me for travel advice. I will often turn around to see precisely who they are talking to. Even if it's in an email addressed to me, I'll do a quick check over my shoulder just to make sure there isn't someone better equipped to answer the question waiting there (as though Rick Steves is hiding in my office. Which would be equally horrifying and awesome).
I dispense my advice with some trepidation, reminding myself that these poor, misguided readers are under the impression that I know what I'm doing. And that they literally asked for it. The fools.
In this edition of Ask the Everywhereist, I once again present some of the questions I've received in my inbox lately, along with my feeble attempt at answers. Serves them right for thinking I was a reliable source of anything besides spite.

First Official Arab WoW Are You A Rubberist?
Hi. I hear they are extremely responsive and talented. If I'm not mistaken, one of our members here has had very good luck with them. Hopefully he will drop in soon and offer his opinion.
Oh Thats Great to hear cus im planning to buy this catsuit
But the price is unbeliaveble, i mean if i ordered it at PrettyPervy
it will Cost me About triple or more
First Official Arab WoW Are You A Rubberist?
I think one of Pretty Pervy's creations albeit more expensive would probably be inflatable and a work of art, their work is really stunning.
No disrespect to Vlatex intended and natty design that it is, the dog suit though is really just an applique brown catsuit with mitts, a tail and ears.
Inspired perhaps by this,
Libidex Tiger Man Outfit
Howdy all,
To thrown in here I ordered from vlatex, and I must say they really are top notch. Vlatex isn't a company that goes all out and on par with Demask or PP but the quality is EXCELLENT. I feel that they are like a small mom and pop shop that you eat at every once in a while because the food is just awesome!! They make a great quality item and I highly recommend them, if you have any ideas or wants for a design, drop murray a line and he'll ask the girls in the shop if they can design it. They are very talented and there seams will take a frelling beating there strong as hell. The latex quality is nice and holds a shine quite well even with out using shinner, just cleaning it looks good. I'm currently mid order for a pair of pleasure pants for the misses. Its not on his site yet but it;s a pair of knickers or bermudas with an attached hood at the crotch. The misses will enjoy them I am sure of it. Try them out they have a great price and are a great fitting feeling latex maker.
Feel the power, starve the squirrels, steal the acorns!!!!
OK I went for a look and I have to ask two questions...
1) AndroidG - how long was shipping? I seem to recall you're in the UK?
2) Going through the catalogue, I would love to know how many green lovedoll suits they have sold. I know the australian sun is hot but there is, so far as I can tell, no precedent for a green lovedoll.
It means he likes the company very much. He's posted about them before and has had very positive transactions with them.
I HAVE BEEN DUPED!! Recently I have been doing research for new items and I come across some disturbing information, seems vlatex uses a form of chinese rubber. I have now dubbed my cs patch because it is falling apart. I had a very good experience with them YES, but I was lied too. They are a great price but the quality of there rubber just does not last. Now granted there could be some issues with how I haven't taken perfect care of my cs but I have been careful. Dont get me wrong they make a great item but my cs has only lasted 2 yrs. And now I need another, I was hoping to get at least 5 yrs out of it. but since I have had it. I have a split in the ass that is about 8inches that I have fixed and refixed. I now have a hole in the left arm pit that is about 3inches and will more than likekly get bigger. And there is a hole in the left wrist, but that was completly my fault.
Lastly I contacted murray about this and he said that they will not repair THERE OWN ITEMS. Because they are not good with repairs??? WTF they wont back there own product. I am throughly pissed about this. BYER BEWARE or you will be sorry.
Feel the power, starve the squirrels, steal the acorns!!!!
Sorry to hear that AG. The quality of Chinese gear is highly variable.

Yields: 10 tartlets
Total Time: 1 hr
Prep Time: 30 min
Oven Temp: 325
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 4 stick(s) unsalted butter, cut into half-inch cubes, plus more for greasing pans
- 5 cup(s) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup(s) cold water, as needed
- 1 cup(s) sugar
- 1 tablespoon(s) all-purpose flour
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup(s) light corn syrup
- 1 tablespoon(s) unsalted butter, melted
- 2/3 cup(s) chopped pecans
- 2/3 cup(s) chocolate chips
- 1.5 cup(s) pecan halves
- For crust: Butter ten 3 1/2-inch tartlet pans; set aside. In a medium bowl, cut 4 sticks butter into flour until mixture resembles coarse meal with bean-size bits. Drizzle in water and mix together just until dough formsdo not overwork. Roll out half the dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. With a sharp knife, cut five 6-inch circles and fit into prepared pans. Trim excess dough from rims, saving scraps; repeat with remaining half of dough. Gather and reroll scraps as needed. Place tartlet pans on 2 baking pans. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
- For filling: In a large bowl, mix together sugar and flour. Whisk in eggs, corn syrup, and butter until combined. Mix in chopped pecans and chocolate chips. Divide mixture evenly among prepared tartlet pans. Arrange pecan halves on tops of tartlets. Bake tartlets until golden on edges and set in center, about 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack, then chill overnight so that tartlets fully set.

Revisions, Pt. I
Last week's foray into the positional revolution was a good start, but there's still a lot of work to be done. As I noted previously, Drew Cannon's positional system isn't coming out of the internet womb fully-formed; a lot of adjustments and tweaks are necessary for the model to become viable. Still, Cannon's design offers a welcome starting point for both discourse regarding positional fluidity and, hopefully, some eventual long-term change in the way we think about and define positions.
There is no end to this process. Even if we successfully shed the five traditional positions in favor of some other system, players and their roles will continue to evolve. It's critical that we're constantly challenging the limits of positionality to match with the on-court product. Note that those limits aren't being tested without reason. It's important that positional rhetoric remains descriptivist in nature. We're not saying "this is the way that position X should play," but rather "this is the way that position X does play."
With those things in mind, any model proposed here needs to be poked and prodded. Finding the leaks is an important step in the process. I'll be the first to concede that no positional model will ever be perfect, but tinkering with the system's imperfections is the the path that will bring us all closer to that flawless standard.
Thus far, Cannon's defensive positions seem to be the source of the most controversy. While there is some confusion over what Cannon's designations do and should mean, the most glaring problem was captured perfectly by Tom Ziller:
The problem with the way this new development is framed is that it still relies on demonstrably imprecise labels. If Rodrigue Beaubois is a "D1″ — meaning he guards point guards despite often playing shooting guard next to Jason Kidd or J.J. Barea — then you're assuming there are "1s" for him to guard, which is just the type of assumption the Positional Revolution aims to destroy.
The point of a new nomenclature is to do a better job describing what players actually do, and do well. If "1s" no longer exist, in favor of the Cannon/Mahoney use of "scorer" or "creator" for offensive roles, what does a "D1″ do? And is that by necessity (due to size or athleticism) or ability? Is calling Beaubois a "D1 Scorer" any different from calling him a "guard"? A more useful classification might be something like "DPick-and-RollA+" or "DPostC-".
In their original context, defensive designations like D1, etc. are actually very counterproductive. If the hope is to move away from traditional positions, it makes little sense to lean so heavily on them.
Yet Ziller's suggested variant, while useful, is both highly subjective and goes well beyond what position is thought to bring to the NBA discussion. There are some skill valuations inherent to positional delineation, but in my eyes (and this point is certainly up for debate), it's important that positions describe and group without necessarily assessing how well a certain player executes their role. Those types of appraisals require far more nuance, and using them to define players via position sacrifices the accessibility of those classifications.
In addition, the wide variety of defensive abilities each NBA player is asked to display makes it difficult to pin down a primary role via skill set. For purposes of convenience, the defensive positions should be as short as possible, so saying that Dwight Howard is a "DPick-and-RollB+/DPostA/DHelpA+/DHelpPostB/DRebounderA+," while descriptive, is probably a bit silly. Yet, if we're going to classify players by their skill (and skill level, in this scenario), Howard's post defense is no more important than any of those other facets. How would one accurately and succinctly convey all of that information in a usable (and more importantly, re-usable) manner?
I think the key is to step away from skill descriptors, particularly at such depth. While it makes sense to describe a player's offensive role as a "scorer" or "rebounder," defense functions much differently. A player's defensive position (not utility, position) hinges on, again, not how well a player defends, but what purpose they serve. Or, for simplicity's sake, what types of players they're able to defend.
Who a given player is able to defend certainly ties into the respective skills of both the defender and their offensive counterpart. At a more basic level though, a player's defensive range is determined by the various heights and speeds he's able to counter. I'm not talking about the height and speed of the defender, but rather, the ranges of those two variables that a defender is physically able to contest.
Thus, I offer the following modification of Cannon's defensive positions:
We'll use the original D1, D2, D3, etc. designations, but with each describing a certain range of relative size and speed. D1 no longer represents a player's ability to defend point guards per se, but their ability to defend shorter, quicker opponents. Likewise, a D5 would indicate one's ability to defend bigger, slower players, regardless of one's own size and speed (Chuck Hayes, for example, is 6'6", but would be a D5 because of his ability to guard taller, stronger players).
A few notes:
- With this system, we eliminate the idea that there are 1s or 2s to guard, and instead simply assume that there will be players of different sizes on the court. Someone will need to guard them. Teams don't have to match small with small, but they do need to match a small opponent with a D1 (even if that D1 would be a shooting guard or small forward by most conventional standards).
- It's important that the boundaries between the size/speed of D1 vs. D2, D2 vs. D3, etc. are nonspecific. This is not meant to be measurable, as creating the necessary framework would involve drawing far too many arbitrary brightlines.
- Positions are meant to be convenient. As such, we really do need to sacrifice some depth for the sake of easier use and better understanding. The point isn't to create some undecipherable code that no other NBA fans can solve, but to create a relatively uniform system that's a bit more descriptive and accurate than the current one.
- These positions are different from traditional ones, particularly because they account for defensive versatility and cross-matching. For a basic example, let's take Rodrigue Beaubois. He may start at shooting guard this year, but in the Allen Iverson mold, will mostly be cross-matched on opposing point guards. So from a positional standpoint, it makes far more sense to call him a "Scorer, Creator/Handler, D1″ than it does a shooting guard. It gives us a bit of insight into what kind of players Beaubois will be guarding, as well as his offensive responsibilities.
- For a more complicated example, look at LeBron James. He'll be listed as a small forward, but we know his offensive role is more far-reaching than the limits of a traditional wing. Additionally, LeBron has become such a useful defender that he can guard all kinds of positions. Thanks to his incredible combination or size, speed, and strength, one could make a legitimate argument that James is actually one of the few players capable of defending all five traditional positions. His 'SF' label has never done him justice on offense, and now it's just as constricting defensively.
- There's still something to be said about how a player defends that's completely unaccounted for. It's distinct enough from the question of 'How well?' that it could technically be incorporated, but I see no simple way to incorporate it. Something to put on the wish list, for sure, but at this stage those distinctions seem a bit too complex.
- Another concern is addressing players who can't really defend anybody. Regardless of where we put the bounds of a positional system, there are going to be exceptions. There will always be someone who doesn't fit neatly into the given categories. Tentatively, these players will be addressed as 'D0,' but it's certainly an idea worth revisiting.
- Please, leave questions and concerns over this system or propositions for other defensive positional models in the comments. Feedback is a crucial part of this process, and every reader is an invaluable part of the refinement of this system.

Hi i was wondering how you can chat with other players while you are in game? I see that in white is the person you were talking to before game but how do you send them another message? If its possible please let me know if there is no such thing please also tell me. Thank you very much!!
You can 'whisper' people on your friends list. The command is /w [summoner name]. For example, while in game: /w RawrJar Oh hi! If I'm in your friends list and online, I would get your message! And easy way to reply is /r once they message you once in game. For example, while in game: /r Oh hi Preistess Kytana!
Sheriff BigBWolf
use /r to respond
Ah awesome thank you so much!! lol a few of my friends were wondering the same thing too! thank you!
No problem!

People with excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) sweat profusely, and some sweat almost constantly.
Although people with a fever or those exposed to very warm environments sweat, people with excessive sweating tend to sweat even without these circumstances.
Excessive sweating may affect the entire surface of the skin but is often limited to certain parts of the body (called focal excessive sweating). The parts most often affected are the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, forehead, and armpits. Sweating in these areas is usually caused by anxiety, excitement, anger, or fear. Although such sweating is a normal response, people with excessive sweating sweat profusely and under conditions that do not cause sweating in most people.
Some people also sweat around the lips, nose, and forehead when they eat hot, spicy foods (called gustatory sweating). Gustatory sweating is normal, but certain disorders can increase such sweating, such as diabetes that affects the nerves, shingles affecting the face, brain disorders, certain disorders affecting the autonomic nervous system in the neck, and certain injuries affecting the nerves to the salivary gland in front of the ear (the parotid gland).
Excessive sweating that affects most of the body is called generalized excessive sweating. Usually, no specific cause is found. However, a number of disorders can cause generalized excessive sweating.
Hormonal (endocrine) disorders
An overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism), low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), and certain pituitary gland disorders or use of drugs that affect pituitary gland function
Antidepressants, aspirin Some Brand Names No US brand name and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), some drugs for diabetes, caffeine, and theophylline Some Brand Names ELIXOPHYLLIN
Withdrawal from opioids
Nervous system disorders
Injuries, dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system, and damage to certain nerves by cancer
Lymphoma and leukemia
Tuberculosis, heart infection (endocarditis), and severe fungal infections of the entire body
Flushing and diarrhea that occurs in people who have certain disorders (carcinoid syndrome), pregnancy, menopause, and anxiety
*Causes primarily night sweats.
Severe, chronic wetness can make the affected area white, wrinkled, and cracked. Sometimes the area becomes red and inflamed. The area may emit a foul odor (bromhidrosis—see Body Odor) due to the breakdown of sweat by bacteria and yeasts that normally live on the skin. Clothing may also become soaked with sweat.
People who sweat excessively are frequently anxious about their condition, and it may lead to social withdrawal. This anxiety may make the sweating worse.
Doctors usually base the diagnosis of excessive sweating on the person's history and a physical examination. Occasionally, they may apply substances to the skin that makes small amounts of sweat visible. Doctors may also do blood tests and hormone screenings to detect other disorders.
Excessive sweating can be controlled to some degree with commercial antiperspirants. However, stronger treatment is often needed, especially for the palms, soles, armpits, or genital area. A prescription-strength aluminum chloride solution may help. At night, the person first dries the sweaty area and then applies the solution. In the morning, the person washes the area. At the start of treatment, the person must apply the solution several times until the sweating is controlled. Then an application once or twice a week is sufficient to maintain relief for as long as necessary. The solution should not be applied to inflamed, broken, wet, or recently shaved skin. Sometimes doctors give the person an anticholinergic drug (such as glycopyrrolate Some Brand Names ROBINUL FORTEROBINUL or oxybutynin Some Brand Names DITROPAN XL ) to take before applying the solution to prevent sweat from washing the aluminum chloride away. However, these drugs can cause side effects that lead people to stop using them (see Sidebar 1: Anticholinergic: What Does It Mean?).
Tap-water iontophoresis, a process in which a weak electrical current is applied to the sweaty areas (typically palms or soles) for 10 to 20 minutes, is sometimes used. This routine is done daily for 1 week and then repeated weekly or about twice per month.
Botulinum toxin type A can be injected directly into the armpits, palms, or forehead to inactivate the nerves that trigger sweating. It prevents sweating for about 5 months depending on the dose. These injections are effective but can cause muscle weakness and headache and are expensive.
If other treatments are not effective, various surgical procedures to control severe sweating may be tried. Excessive sweating limited to the armpits is sometimes treated by removing the sweat glands via surgery or liposuction. Excessive sweating limited to the palms can be treated by a procedure called endoscopic transthoracic sympathectomy, in which the nerves leading to the sweat glands are cut. However, surgery can cause permanent complications such as phantom sweating (a sensation of sweating, but no sweat exists), compensatory sweating (increased sweating in untreated parts of the body), gustatory sweating, nerve pain, and Horner syndrome (see Horner Syndrome). Compensatory hyperhidrosis is most common after endoscopic transthoracic sympathectomy, develops in up to 80% of people, and can be disabling and far worse than the original problem.
Bromhidrosis can be treated by cleansing twice daily with soap and water, or, if this is ineffective, with other measures used to treat bromhidrosis (see see Body Odor).

LV Shou Review
What You Should Know
Click Here To See Our Highest Rated Review
LV Shou is a weight loss supplement that claims to help "fat" people lose weight. The reference to dieters as "fat" people shows from the start that this supplement is just not up to par with other slimming formulas. In addition to using unacceptable language in regards to dieters, the product description claims the supplement can help people who are fat because of marriage or pregnancy and keep the weight lost from rebounding.
We found no official website for LV Shou, though that is not a huge surprise. The ingredient list is cryptic, at best, but we think we can find a few recognizable ingredients. Dieters are assured that this supplement will not cause anorexia and they do not have to change how they eat to lose weight.
List of Ingredients
- Bamboo Vinegar
- Gymnosperm Pentasyllabic
- Lotus Leaf
- Haw
- Polygonum Multiflorum Thunb
- Fomes Japonica
- Licorice Flavor
Product Features
The ingredient list for LV Shou offers no proven weight loss ingredients – that is the most important aspect of this supplement no matter how disturbing the product description may be. We did find, however, a few common ingredients found in many Japanese and Chinese slimming pills.
Bamboo vinegar is a common ingredient in detox foot patches. Supposedly bamboo vinegar contains more than 200 ingredients, according to some websites, but we could find no verification for the exact 200 ingredients in the vinegar. It is more likely that the bamboo vinegar is extracted from bamboo plants.
Gymnosperm Pentasyllabic could be another name for gymnema sylvestre, but the only information we found on this ingredient was several references to the LV Shou diet pill.
Lotus leaf is commonly used to cleanse the liver and spleen. There are also claims it can reduce fever and treat dizziness. Like many alternative or herbal ingredients, there are no proven effects on the body and no connection was found between lotus leaf and weight loss.
Haw is likely hawthorn. Hawthorn has been tested for its use as a treatment for certain heart conditions. It is thought that this ingredient supports healthy heart function, but we found no support for using hawthorn as part of a weight loss supplement.
Polygonum Multiflorum Thunb is a plant extract that is extremely dangerous. According to the National Institutes of Health, this extract can cause liver damage to the point where healthy people suffer jaundice and need emergency hospitalization.
- Ingredients are listed online.
- At least one dangerous ingredient known to cause liver failure.
- No proven weight loss ingredients.
- No testimonials.
- No free trial.
- No money-back guarantee.
LV Shou is a dangerous diet supplement that all dieters should avoid. We found reports of liver damage directly associated with intake of Polygonum Multiflorum Thunb on the National Institutes of Health website.

Transferring GarageBand Files into other DAWs (Pro Tools, etc…) April 21, 2008
Posted by ConnorSmith in : Digital Audio Workstations, GarageBand, Pro Tools , trackbackIf you have a session going in GarageBand, and want to transfer to another DAW (like Pro Tools, Digital Performer, Cubase etc…), you can. It's not as clean as transferring from GarageBand to Logic (since you can just open the file up), but this will work just fine for you.
The basic process is going to be soloing each track you have and individually exporting it to disk. Then, once all tracks are exported, you will import them into your DAW (such as using the Import Audio command in Pro Tools).
Let's look at this GarageBand demo song.
There are 8 different tracks that we need to individually export. Start by soloing the Rock Kit track and choosing Share>Export Song to Disk. (Notice that the yellow headphone icon is highlighted on my Rock Kit track, indicating that the track is soloed).
When you choose this, a dialog box will open asking you where you'd like to save the file. I would go ahead and make a folder to put the tracks into. (You'll see later that I am exporting all my tracks to a folder on the desktop called "Daydream Export"). Repeat this export process for each track in your song. Be sure to label the exported files properly so that when you import them into the new DAW you can easily identify them.
Now that my files are all exported, this is what my folder of files looks like:
This is an easy way to transfer your GarageBand files into Pro Tools (or whatever DAW you may be using). Just keep organized, and this process runs very smoothly.
(You can also use the freeze tracks function, described in the comments below. This is a little faster way to do it, but a little more complicated)
The Studio Files
- 1. Michael Dees - October 6, 2008
Thanks. I was curious about this. I'd purchased an ausio interface (m-audio profire 2626) that works with pro tools m-powered and I have LE. So I wanted to use another program just to capture the signal and then transport those files to pro tools for editting. I knew you could import audio files into pro tools but wasn't sure how best to do it from garage band. This helps a lot.
- 2. Patico - October 28, 2008
I have been struggling with SoundFlower to do the same at once for 16 chanels of a GB song transferred into Digital performer.
I know it is possible…However, due to he cplexity, loneliness and frustration, I think I will do with the method you indicated…
Thanks! - 3. liquidice - January 3, 2009
if ur dealing w/ large track counts, this could take a while. here's a more elegant solution:
- 4. Damon Sink - January 3, 2009
I checked the link, but the only different technique that I see is to extract .aif files from the .band package contents. This will work if every track is continous from the beginning. If your individual tracks have more than one section, then you'll need to mix them down one by one. If I'm missing something cool, please help me out.
[@ Patico] Sorry I missed this. I have done this with DP, it will work. Did you create an aggregate audio device in Core Audio? You have to do this so that your sound card/interface works at the same time as Soundflower. Once you have done so, then Core Audio gives you the option to use different I/O selections from different devices (including Soundflower) simultaneously.
The Studio Files - 5. Arvie Lowe, Jr - January 3, 2009
My adventures into this have been met with both JOY and PAIN!!LOL I must say that the bouncing was my only option but I'm having the Darndest time getting ALL my tracks into PT LE cuz they all come in as STEREO files, I need em to be MONO when they get into PT but HOW??? It's driving me insane!
- 6. ConnorSmith - January 5, 2009
Although the files coming out of garageband will be 2-channel, it has the same information that your mono tracks in Garageband have.
Any specific reason why you need true mono?
- 7. ARVIE lowe Jr - January 6, 2009
Here's the interesting bit, I'm running PTLE an I would loose stereo tracks importing all those aiff files into PT so 1 or more wouldn't play.. To solve the issue, I took the aiffs that I didn't want to be stereo (L+R) trks, converted them to single mono wav's in QuickTime and walla. I now have the trks set up the exact way I wanted them from GB in PT, works awesome.. The sound quality bouncing trks from pro-tools VS GB is so much better!! I just needed some edge and more control over mixing and although I'm a novice producer, this seems to be a wicked combo! Thanks to all u guys for the input!! Now if I could just get better PT plug INS (lost my ilok) then I'm hitting the ground running.. I must say GB's plug-in's are so sick!!
- 8. ARVIE lowe Jr - January 6, 2009
Quick question for Damon…
In the diagram above, why do all your tracks u bounced from GB look like .m4a's not. What's the deal with that bit of business??
- 9. Damon Sink - January 6, 2009
They are m4a (MPEG-4) which is the container. Connor can elaborate (this is his post) but I think what's contained is an Apple Lossless file?
- 10. Arvie Lowe, Jr - January 6, 2009
Oh, okay, Thanks Damon. Cuz when I do the export in GB, my default for it is .aiff, just wondering was there a setting in preference or something that I'm missing or is M4a like BETTER? lol
just wondering.. - 11. Bill - January 8, 2009
Precisely the info I needed. Thanks for posting!
b - 12. david smith - March 18, 2009
I'd like to export separate gband trax so I can take these to another DAW in a studio where each track can be manipulated, mixed and mastered.
Using the technique you describe for gband exporting does each track end up on disk mono or stereo? Can that be controlled during the export process. If stereo is the only option, can each track be manipulated by the DAW/studio (like a protools or Cubase) into mono. Thanks!
- 13. mo - May 27, 2009
I have been attempting to either import Garageband files into Reason 3.0 or vice versa without any success………….
- 14. ConnorSmith - May 27, 2009
Reason does not handle audio files (or recording them)- it is MIDI and virtual synth/instruments program. Reason is not a DAW (although Propellerheads is releasing one soon)
That being said, Garageband now supports Rewire. You can use Rewire from within Garageband to "talk" to Reason instruments and effects.
- 15. j - July 15, 2009
but then wouldnt it be hard to line them up?
- 16. Dj Vic - August 19, 2009
I want to record my dj mix in garageband and then take it to pro tools for editing. How would I go about doing that?
- 17. ConnorSmith - October 28, 2009
@DJ Vic
This should help - - 18. Martin Harp - October 30, 2009
You can bring audio into Reason, you just have to use one of the samplers to do so.
For everyone looking for the fastest way to transfer GB tracks into other DAWs: Freeze the tracks you want to export!
Open the GB file and freeze all of the tracks you want to export by clicking the lock icon next to the solo button.
With the tracks frozen, press play once (you don't have to play the whole song, just press stop when the freezing is complete). Save the file, if you like, and close GB.In Finder, goto the GB file and right/control-click, "show package contents") and open the folder "Freeze Files". There should be a number of stereo interleaved .aif files that correspond to the amount of tracks you froze (they should also be about the same size as each other). Alt-drag those to a new folder and import them into whatever DAW you prefer, assuming that DAW accepts .aif files. I say alt-drag because if you just drag them out of the folder GB won't find them the next time you open that project, which may or may not be a big deal since they are just freeze files and can be replaced by repeating the steps above.
Note: If the track you froze is a mono track, the freeze file will still be a stereo file, but panning is ignored. Stereo tracks produce freeze files that retain their stereo image. All freeze files are pre-master track, meaning any effects you have on the master track do not effect the frozen files. Any effects within the track's own effects chain is rendered when freezing (the purpose of freezing is to free up CPU if you're running out of processing power).
Send me an Email if you have any questions regarding Garageband or Logic Pro.
- 19. ConnorSmith - October 31, 2009
^^Right, you can export the audio out of your DAW and load it up into say an NNXT or a Dr. Rex (with a few steps in between), but I'm pretty sure Mo was referring to trying to use Reason as a DAW.
Thanks for the freeze tracks addition – another reason why Garageband is such a cool program.
- 20. Robert Bryant - August 14, 2010

This is just a side note-
Opening a GB project with Logic automatically saves the GB audio files into the "audio files" folder in the project. So if you do have Logic, it's way easier to open the project and use those audio files rather than exporting every track from GB. - 23. Raf Pulejo - November 4, 2010
I just drag all the audio files from the Media folder in the Garage Band project into a blank project window in Cubase, opt for each file on a different track, then solo or mute as necessary

I want to send a single midi drum track to my friend in Nashville so he can tweak it as only a real drummer can. How do I make and then send via email, a single midi track in GarageBand ? I want the track to be a standard midi track because he has an older version of GB.
Donovan - 27. ConnorSmith - February 18, 2011
So… unfortunately you can't actually export MIDI from Garageband.
1) Open up your Garageband file in Logic and export MIDI from there
2) If you are adventurous, install a plug-in called MidiO, which provides some export options from Garageband. To be honest, I've never used it, but I have seen it in action. - 28. James Patrick - February 24, 2011
Is anyone still following this thread? I have a question about exporting from garagband into a Yamaha AW16G. I can transfer the individual garage band tracks into my machine (using the "show package contents" method mentioned above AND after converting to wavs) but the effects on the track are missing! Can someone help me with this?
- 29. ConnorSmith - February 24, 2011
Are you exporting using the method described above? That will bounce your tracks as they are heard in the project file.
- 30. James Patrick - February 24, 2011
Yes, but I'd like the individual track .wavs to retain the effects, that's all.
- 31. ConnorSmith - February 24, 2011
To be honest, I haven't used Garageband in a long time. However, I know that when you export a "song" (in this case a track) in this way, it prints all the effects.
What effects are you using/how are you using them? Feel free to email me a screenshot or two (email is up in the "Who We Are" tab) – that will help.
- 32. IFF - August 16, 2011

- 43. Pete - October 4, 2013
I can export discreet tracks from Garageband using the "freeze" folder AIFs. But these files do not include my volume automation. Is there a way to do that?
- 44. Matt - March 25, 2014
If your tracks are pretty clean, I find it best to just go to the source.
The .band file is really a directory. Right-click->Show Contents. There's a subdirectory called Media/ with all of your original .aif clips in it.
Create a new directory for them and cp/paste them all – file browsers can't navigate through the .band file so your DAW won't be able to get to the originals.
I use terminal and do it all from the command line, but if you're not a Unix person, I think cp/paste will work from a browser.
In Reaper, I create a new track and insert media. Presto.
Hope that helps.
- 45. Darrell - September 26, 2014
ok you mentioned you have to open up a new folder to put the garage band files so do you drag the files individually in protools editing mix window or do you click on the whole file and drag the whole file into protools.another thing will the files be located on your desk top or do you have to locate them somewhere else on your computer? also can you add plugins or edit or and tracks after you convert? HELP!!! thanks so much

Día de los Muertos, Mexico
You can expect high spirits in graveyards, endless fireworks, and all manner of colorful decorations like papel picado (tissue-paper banners) today and tomorrow to mark Mexico's Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). Stores overflow with trinkets to offer to the deceased, such as skull and coffin candies and yellow marigolds. As you can see from the drunken skeletons, this is a time to party with (or even mock) death rather than fear it.

Tyler, Texas (KETK) — Bossier City police have arrested a Shreveport police officer on a felony charge of malfeasance in office as the result of a prostitution investigation last week.
Officers with the BCPD Vice Unit arrested Efrain Conde, 43, of Shreveport this afternoon on a criminal arrest warrant.
Conde's arrest stems from an investigation conducted last Friday night by the BCPD Vice Unit in which an undercover officer made contact with a woman, later identified as Leigh Ann Johnson, 40, of Bossier City,via the Internet who agreed to meet him at a local hotel for the purpose of having sex for money.
When Bossier City officers arrived at the hotel they noticed a male subject sitting in the driver's seat of a parked Shreveport police car in the parking lot. Officers initiated their sting and took Johnson into custody. She was taken to the Bossier City Jail and bookedon two bench warrants for failure to appear. She was also issued a citation for prostitution.
A subsequent investigation determined that the individual in the Shreveport police car, who was identified as Conde, had arranged to meet the suspect at the hotel for the purpose of having sex for money. Conde was on duty at the time. Based on evidence from their investigation, officers obtained the warrant for Conde's arrest on the malfeasance charge. He was taken into custody at Shreveport police headquarters and booked into the Caddo Correctional Center.

Monsu looks to be a cute and cuddly little runner/platformer from Angry Birds alum Boomlagoon. I was able to get my hands on it for a bit and I can confirm that it is, in fact, cute and cuddly. It's also got a lot of cards to collect and equip, which is a bit different for the genre. Good different, form what I've seen.
In between choosing a card to bring into battle, smashing houses while collecting coins, and generally laying waste to those who would oppose me, I had the chance to speak to Boomlagoon's CEO, Antti Sten, about the interesting hybrid.
148Apps: Would you say Monsu is a runner/platformer with card collecting elements, or a card collector with platformer/runner elements?
Antti Sten (AS): It's like a platformer, endless runner, with this card-collecting aspect. Basically you get to collect 40 different cards, and you can equip three of them at a time. All of them bring this really cool visual and helping aspect to the game, so you can run with these companions and buddies that make it like a whole different experience depending on what cards you choose.
The core game is the runner, of course. You can play the game without the cards but you can't play it without the running.
148Apps: What was it like to hybridize two very different genres? Were there any particular challenges? Anything easier than you'd expected?
AS: We thought we'd have trouble figuring out what the cards would be, because we wanted each of them to be richer than some power-up. There are some like that but most of them are really game-changing. It went pretty smoothly, really. We had a few challenges with other mechanics, like for example the social mechanics. We currently have leaderboards and you can share with other players, but we've been trying to figure out what would be the most convenient features to include.
148Apps: Where did the idea for a runner/card hybrid come from?
AS: It's always hard to say specifically when the game idea was born. At one point we were trying to figure out how to make a different kind of endless runner – we had all kinds of ideas, like what kind of controls could you have, should there be attacking – and at one point we started to wonder "What if it was more like a platformer?"
Of course with platformers you're thinking about Super Mario Brothers, and one of the key aspects of that game is that you can get these power-ups that really change the way that you play the game; for example, when you get the fire flower you play totally differently than when you get the star. We wanted to create something like that with Monsu's cards. And of course we went overboard and now we have around 40 of them.
148Apps: Did you learn anything from the development of Angry Birds or Noble Nutlings that helped with the development of Monsu?
AS: Simplistic UI is always something that we want to have – let users get straight to the game, and not have too many screens to handle. And of course there's the graphical style, which we've carried over from previous games.
148Apps: I imagine the climate of the App Store has changed a bit since releasing Angry Birds and even Noble Nutlings. Do you think that may have changed the way you approached Monsu?
AS: Yeah, I guess that one of the things that really has changed for us is that now we require much more depth. We wouldn't want to publish a game with just like one mechanic and X amount of challenges or levels, so there has to be some kind of progression – something to fiddle with. That's one of the things that's going to be very different from Noble Nutlings.
148Apps: Have there been any trends or reactions you've seen in the App Store lately that have you concerned about how Monsu will be received?
AS: The genre itself – really casual, easy to play games – there aren't many that have been all that successful. If you look in the App Store, the Top Grossing games based on revenue are usually like casino, resource management, and licensed games, which Monsu is not. But Monsu is a fun game, and there's always been room for these types of games!
Thanks to Antti Sten for his time. Monsu is available to download on the App Store now, for free.
