Occasionally I’ll re-amp an organ or synth or something but otherwise I just plug in and record with as little fuss as possible I’ve never bothered with any of the drum samples or virtual instruments in Garageband but only because I play drums anyway and I’ve got all the keyboards I need. Had Logic and rarely used it as it was way more feature packed than I need, and found a lot of it got in the way when all I wanted to record some drums and guitars and bass, etc. I’ll admit I’m biased as I’ve used Garageband since 2018 to make records with and put radio shows together with and I’ve earned actual money from it, despite it being supposedly super basic.

I don't think this will happen until the new year, with everything else going on, so sit tight and I'll report back. With that in mind, I may have a go with Reaper, as there is the trial version and see how I get on. I think that is why I was attracted to GB, as all I knew who had tried it, said it was pretty easy to get on with. ![]() I had forgotten this but I had Cakewalk YEARS ago, running on Windows 95 or 98 and struggled with that.įrom memory (it was a very long time ago) it certainly was not straightforward and certainly not intuitive. ![]()
