Overall Satisfaction with GarageBand
I use Garage Band both for my Voice podcast and for recording music that I can sell. It lets me put together my bi-weekly podcast with ease. Plus, when I need to record vocals or piano, I can do it right here at home using Garage Band as my software.
- It is easy to edit in the way that you can highlight something and simply delete a part of what you are working on.
- I love that I can drag two or more tracks together to keep them in sync when editing.
- It's not difficult to add a click track when you need it.
- I think the whole process of highlighting, cutting out parts and the basic editing doesn't take huge amounts of time because it seems intuitive.
- I think it's a little confusing as to tweaking the EQ of a track. I don't find it intuitive and sometimes can't re-find it.
- The ability to edit the EQ or the entire project also doesn't seem easy to find or make consistent.
- I also wish it was easier to find the set up for midi
- It's came free with my computer--huge plus!
- The ability to record talking or music is also a game changer.
- It can record in minutes or measures, depending on whether you are doing music or speaking.
- Positive in that was able to record vocals for a recording project that I was paid for.
- Positive in that I'm able to put out a podcast so that I have listeners all around the world that can potentially become clients
- Positive in that I can record audio for some of my online courses.
Way more user friendly. Audacity was clunky in the editing part and Garage Band is not. I love that everything is laid out in an eye friendly fashion. Audacity had too many tools laid out in a busy way where it's actually hard to find things. Also, since Garage Band is free to Mac users, it was kind of a no brainer switch because it's also good training for you if you eventually want to use LOGIC.
