Hi everyone.
Newbie with the Mac here. I recently bought the 24" iMac and Macbook Pro since I'm told that for multimedia, Apple's the way to go.
I am trying to learn how to capture audio to be able to edit it on my computers. Here's the gist of it.
I have music files that my friends have in mp3 format. It's music that they have written and waiting for me to add lyrics and vocals to. I don't have a recording studio or anything but do have a decent set up for vocals. Is there a way that I can connect my mixer/amp to my computer to capture the vocals as a separate audio file, bring it into a multi-layer software like Garage Band to edit it along with the musical file? Then make it as a complete song?
What kind of software, hardware, etc.. would i need to do this?
Long story short, I want to have a low budget recording studio so to speak.
