Some people can make garage band behave. On my system, most commands would work perhaps 25% of the time and even when they did, it was necessary to save the project almost 100% of the time before a new function would work. Combine this with virtually no undo and definitely no non-destructive und

Hi Danny and welcome to the list, I've only been at the Mac coming from the windows world for a few months now, and I too am a musician of sorts. Actually, I'm finding GarageBand to be quite usable for both audio and to some extent, MIDI as well. I find I can do some fairly precise audio editti

Quite correct Danny: it was indeed Vagus LA that was the multitrack offering. I do not ever recall that it was or could be made accessible with JAWS via clunky crashy windows-note the small w that is on purpose. I understand that most of the basic functions can be done with Sound Forge on the

Thanks for the info. I do own AmpKit but haven't exported yet. That's my next step. Problem is I'm having to much fun finding all the things it can do. I'd strongly recommend any Guitarists/Bassists to check it out. There is a free demo that lets you do a lot. Always a good idea when an app cost

Hi Danny, welcome. Ray here. I have been considering Sound Forge for the Mac. Yep, it's out now. Quite accessible to from what I hear. There remain a few issues: but, I'm hoping Sony clears those up. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray Still a very proud and happy Mac and Iphone us

That brings up a good question. I tried Audacity on windows and on hearing it was now more VO friendly on mac, just installed it the other day. I'm having the same issue with it on Mac as I did on Windows though. My interface is a Saffire Pro14 and although I can find the device in Audacity, I

I'm glad to see you made it here (you know me from the blind-guitarist list). I use Audacity for music - export your Ampkit tracks, then import them into Audacity. I don't have the full Ampkit for Mac yet so have not tried this exact thing, but I have used Audacity and I get along with it well enou
