I'm assuming that Garageband only does real-time notation of your loops? It would be *astonisingly cool* if it notated your recorded tracks too, but I'm not sure this is technically possible?
Apple's pages on Garageband are not terribly clear about this.
If there are any iLife '05 owners out there, I would LOVE it if you can check this out for me.

Are you talking about recorded AUDIO tracks or MIDI tracks?
MIDI tracks - should be no problem whatsoever. If notation support is in the program, it would be utterly pointless to do the live notation part (which is mostly just a gimmick, really) and then throw it out for existing tracks.
Audio tracks - only Melodyne can do this, and (so far) only on single-note lines. Automatic transcription from polyphonic (more-than-one-note) lines may likely never be possible reliably or sensibly at all.

I was talking about audio tracks...
Can you tell me more about Melodyne? Is it commercial software? Hardware?

Ganesha, that is actually a midi (software instrument) track that it is turning into notation for you. I think what they were asking is if it provided notation for a recorded guitar or vocals or something to that effect.

Two atoms were talking one day. One atom said to the other "you know, I think I've lost some electrons." The other atom said "are you sure?" The atom said "yeah, I'm positive." www.thisoldpodcast.com

It is commercial software, not cheap, and to my knowledge absolutely unique in its ability to handle audio as if it were MIDI data.
Single-note melody line sources only.
It is unlikely that MIDI-like manipulation - including automatic notation - of polyphonic audio will ever be possible.
