The update also brings support for Apple’s Force Touch trackpad, allowing users to vary the strength of some tools based on pressure changes from their presses on the trackpad on the new MacBook, and the latest Retina MacBook Pro models. There’s plenty more besides, including a ton of new content for EDM and Hip Hop artists: 20 new electronic drum kits, plus 100 new synthesizer patches for that type of music, and 1,000 new loops across genres and a range of instruments.

The goal with this update was to make it a lot easier for even novice and hobbyist EDM artists to get the most out of Apple’s free Garage Band software, which ships on every new Mac the company makes. The new Transform Pad Smart Control is the most interesting part of the whole thing, with an interface divided into eight sections that you can drag your cursor across to change the sound you’re creating.

How far across each you move your pointer affects the sound, and the effects of your manipulation occur live on the track, and can be recorded directly as an adjustment layer for later playback. The new version of GarageBand on iOS also allows for direct sharing to Apple Music Connect for artists who’ve enabled their account there, and that functionality is also going to arrive on the Mac app, albeit at a slightly later date.
