Curious about the program.

aflunky	Date: August 22, 2005 @ 5:17 AM I have a Mac That I use for Editing Video, but it also has this software on it. I'm not too fimiliar with it. I've been using Acid for my music. In your guys opinion, should I use garage band for some of my samples, or should I not even waste my time?
monkvolcano	Date: August 25, 2005 @ 5:29 AM garage band sucks.. it lacks sooooooo many features. i wouldn't waste my time.. as far as mac software goes.. you got, logic, cubase, and reason.. they're all good, but garage band ain't so great.
Funky-Foo-Ni...	Date: August 31, 2005 @ 12:56 AM Monk, as far as advanced goes, Garageband isn't. But it isn't nearly as bad as you make it seem. Yeah logic and that is great if you have the money to shell out for it. I'd take logic pro over garageband any day, but as a sixteen year old with next to no income, Logic is pretty much unattainable. Regardless, I'm still finding new features about garaageband everytime I use it. I think it's good to start out with. I'm a music production noob, the only songs I've made are the ones on this site and they were all done in gargeband. But, as I get more experienced I can almost guaranteee that garageband won't be enough. All in all, Garageband is good for beginners. Wow that was long.
hate9wicket	Date: September 1, 2005 @ 12:24 AM I agree with everything Funky foo nikkel says about Garageband... I use it, I'm new here too. I love it, sure I'd like to upgrade, but I'd also want 300 gig hard drive and a Ernie Ball Stingray and E-drums and a Korg and a Stratocaster and the moon and everything else I can't afford. I really am digging the drum loops, I often incorporate 4 or 5 tracks of different elements strategically mapped out, best example of that so far of mine is "Sweet Ride", it might be a little too busy, but I like it, and it's all Garageband I'm using.
Alexsy	Date: September 6, 2005 @ 4:12 PM i just got an extension pack with like 2000 loops, that you can also use with logic etc. in all, a very useful purchase. garageband is better than my current alternative, which is, no recording software at all.

monkvolcano	Date: September 23, 2005 @ 2:05 AM you make good points.. sorry i was an ass!
