QuickTime and GarageBand

I'm trying to find a workaround for viewing a QuickTime movie while
recording in GarageBand. I thought about an applescript that told
both applications to play and record (respectively) at the same time.

Unfortunately, I have two things going against me....

1. I'm a total applescript newbie

2. GarageBand isn't applescriptable

Pressing the "R" key starts GarageBand recording, so I was hoping there
was a way for applescript to trigger that key. I

All I've been able to muster is....

tell application "GarageBand"
activate

tell application "QuickTime Player"
activate
play movie "kingjohn.mov"

end tell
end tell


I know, just go buy Soundtrack.... but I'm working on a tutorial for
teachers and I can safely assume that none of them will have money for
soundtrack.

I appreciate any help you might be able to give me.
