Hi. at the moment, we've got garage band and pro tools. Hopefully logic will be following at some point in the future.

"This software is not compatible with your computer." It knows! I just went ahead and purchased a copy, it seemed like a good enough starting place, but I remain open to any and all suggestions.

We feel empathy when we hear of the death of a fellow Mac user. Because of this, I first wanted to pass on the sad news that a long-time Mac user and professional musician has passed away. Peter "Sleazy" Christopherson helped found such legendary industrial bands as Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV, and Coil. He died in his sleep on November 24th. >> >> While reflecting and self-reflecting upon these reflections, I decided that this marked the time to finally get into making music on my beautiful iMac. I've started using Amadeus Pro at the excellent recommendation of list members. That does multi-track editing. Now I guess I need a sequencer. I don't even know exactly what I want. I created .mod files as a teen-ager, if anyone remembers those. I also toyed with some Windows sequencing before my installation crashed fabulously for the final time. >> >> I've heard about the new Garage Band, supposedly with improved accessibility. One guy told me he didn't find it so, but others seem to like it. I've also seen some other music programs in the Apple store and elsewhere. I want something I can easily learn, something with which I can start making trance music as soon as possible, and something that will give me room to grow, with a shallow learning curve. I also plan to do strange and wonderful things with instruments, including using sacred mathematical scales, as researched by Hans Cousto.http://akashaproject.degives examples of this. I'd appreciate any recommendations anyone may have. No doubt others have asked similar questions, so I apologize in advance. >> >> - Austin >> >> PS: I have iLife 11 on my MacBook Air. I would rather have it on my iMac. I wonder if I could just transfer it from one machine to another? If not I guess I'd have to pay the $49 if I want to go that route. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group. > To post to this group, send email to macvisionar...@googlegroups.com. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to macvisionaries+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/macvisionaries?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
