so I've been producing music since i got my first mac back in 2008. my setup is what it is and i rely on midi sounds heavily even though i have tons of live instruments (i enjoy making new age jazz, hardcore, and i love rap as well). i love using my yamaha portasound keyboard from 1989 as my midi controller and i love using garageband because of its ease and with every update it gets better and better.

i just bought a new macbook pro a few months ago (model and specs in my signature). i bought the GB '10 sounds, effects, loops, and midi for the $5 charge or whatever and was SO happy with everything that came with. i also acquired the legacy apple loops add on packages, the remix, the percussion, etc, a good 10GB dent into my hard drive.

my problem is i want to customized my own midi tracks and i have studied this issue and it seems the best and (almost) only way to do this is through the garageband "radio sounds" functions.

unfortunately, from all of the loops, midi, effects, everything I've acquired, because i didn't upgrade from my old garageband on my old macbook air (which is trash now, the screen FELL off and i was lucky enough to take off all my key data before wiping the god damned thing) i don't have the ORIGINAL garageband loops and sounds. therefore, no "radio sounds" software instrument track.

i've tried searching google. no help.

does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried asking my friends but most of them are mac-tarded and are unable to help. is it something as simple as finding SOMEONE with the "radio sounds" on theirs and copying/pasting/installing the file onto my computer? and if so, is there anyone who can give me a nice installation instruction + maybe the singular file itself? please? thanks guys.
