GarageBand?

• bartread 9y ago
  Assuming that comment isn't simply trolling... GarageBand is certainly powerful, especially given it's deliberate limitation, and both myself and friends have used it to great effect, but Ableton Live it is not. If you look at Logic - which GarageBand is really a cut down version of - you see a similar degree of complexity to that in other professional level DAWs. Not everyone needs a professional level DAW, and even those who do wouldn't necessarily use one all the time: as I've said, I still use Audacity, and GarageBand on the iPad or iPhone is a super-handy tool. The parent was commenting on people who ridiculously bleat on about the the UX of complex professional level audio tools, not suggesting there isn't a place for tools that are simpler.

    I should have made myself clearer: I was not proposing GarageBand as an alternative to professional-grade DAWs, but rather as the "Instagram for music" GP refered to in its last sentence.

      Fair shout, and my bad for misinterpreting. Thanks for the clarification.
