set the cycle region in the track time ruler, cycle needs to be on using key c
to turn on or off. in the cycle region interact with the left and right
locators to set the bars you want to cycle, it should tell you how many are
selected, you can do this while playing to confirm you have what you want, you
should not hear any extra bars. holding down shifg will give you smaller
increments.
under the record menu you can select how many bars you want as a count in.
i suggest recording a few takes with your bass then check the track contents
that the takes have been recorded in the take folder for that track.
it will be useful to turn the metronome on while you get used to this so you
are sure you are only hearing the number of bars you want to cycle.

Thanks, playing around with it. First step is to figure out how to adjust the
cycle region. I selected a region and hit cycle, when I played it it nicely
repeated itself so I could practice, but it gave me an extra measure. It gave
me my two measures that the region consisted of, but then the cycle gave me
measure 3 before going back to measure 1. Is this normal?

yes, though logic is clearer than gb regarding this.
in gb preferences under general select to create take s with each pass
rather than merge. you have options for this when cycle is on or off and
refers to software instruments, it should show similar for audio instruments.
each cycle should create a new take then in the track contents under each
track you are presented with a take folder from which you can select which
take to hear and you can delete those you don't want.
gb gives far less options
see what happens

Ok, Garage Band Gurus, I could use some help figuring out cycling regions.
I kind of understand that cycling a region makes it repeat, how does this
effect recording? If I have an 8 measure drum region and I want to repeat
it while I record my bass part, if I cycle the region can I play the part
over and over again until I get it the way I like it?
