[QUOTE="dc2bluelight, post: 1812764, member: 399729"] The reason I didn't recommend Garage Band is simple. I'm an audio professional. I find the Garage Band interface completely confusing, clearly designed to take someone who has never done anything in audio before and lead them by the hand in a direction Apple thinks they should go. It's so highly irritating, and different that any other audio software, I never use it. Never. And deleted it's bloated 1gb of program and 2+gb of samples and loops. But, just as a sanity check, I downloaded a fresh copy today and tried to just open an mp3 file and do something...anything...with it. I gave it 5 minutes, and this old audio pro gave up. So, if you're going to suggest Garage Band, you'd better also post a detailed step-by-step, with a fresh start new project, because even drag/drop an .mp3 doesn't work. My policy is to never recommend something I wouldn't use myself, and even then with caution. [/QUOTE]
