Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Great for Free

    By haloinfinite (Pcmac user)

    i have used it for about a year now and have been very pleased. Granted, I am brand new at this recording and DAW stuff but as a starter it is great! Two reasons why: it is free and easy to navigate. I picked it up very quickly and to me everything is in a very convinient spot. Now looking at some of these reviews, allot of people are saying that they miss stuff from the old versions, specifically sound loops and the sound library. I can understand someone being frustrated that apple took away some stuff but for me, I wanna sit down and make music out of scratch, so I do not care about the loops at all because I like to compose my own stuff. And plus, the selection of instruments is really good. In addition, there are multiple effects and numerous amounts of musical elements you can add to the recordings of each instrument and each one varies by what they have, showing the difference in each instrument. This alone proves that a good amount of time and effort was put into making this (FREE) music DAW. So in reality, to those people that are rating this at 1 or 2 stars, you need to stop complaining about this free music app that you only had to download!!! If you really want something so spectacular, than get logic x or switch to pro tools. Just stop crapping on garage band when all it did was show up.
  • Arpeggiator?

    By Raffercm (Pcmac user)

    I’ve been using this app for 7 years now. Granted, this is a school laptop & I’m not any music pro, but I would say I’ve become pretty advanced with this app over the years. When my school reimages the Macs every school year, all of our purchased apps get automatically updated. When I was prepared to make more advanced music for college (I’m 16), I noticed something pretty off. #1, THE ARPEGGIATOR IS GONE FOR ANY KIND OF DRUM KIT. This helped me keep tempo with MANY of my projects & now it’s almost impossible to remake them in my own loop. Not to mention, some of the loops are gone too. Granted, I semi enjoy some of the new sounds like the clap & snapping, but I want my arpeggiator back. I can’t make music without it. I fell in love with this app, & I’d hate to not use it when I constantly have new tunes in my head I could make on here. I’d give this app 5 stars, but it’s now almost useless if you want to be able to produce good, on beat music. Looks like I'm going to have to save $200 to purchase Logic Pro if this doesn’t get fixed. I would really not like to have to do that because I have a lot of faith in this app when it comes to producing my music. Come on now Apple, you’re better than this.
  • I’m having mixed feelings…mostly negative ones.

    By Nin10doGirl (Pcmac user)

    I, myself, have been using this app going on 5 years now. I’ll be honest that when I first started out, I liked the accessibility I had to different kinds of pianos, drum kits, and other things. The same went for the Sound Effects library, which I REALLY liked along with the Apple Loops selection. The recording software was really good, too. And a few years later, I saw even more options on instruments, which I thought was amazing! ...But as we all know, there are times in which we see odd changes. The Sound Effects library is gone, most of my favorite loops are gone, the recording software has lost its high quality, and a lot of instruments that I liked (i.e. Grand Piano On Stage, Alto Saxophone, etc.) are also gone. And with the new update, the Beat bar has been changed, so I can’t see what position I’m at. Also, the Sounds background used to look really cool, and now I don’t particularly care for it much anymore. …I’m not sure what Apple has been thinking as of late, but I really wish they could change some of these things back to how they were. I want to keep using this app, but I don’t want to be using an application that I am slowly starting to dislike.
  • Garage Band is dead. Why? Why?

    By morty the mortified (Pcmac user)

    Everything is gone. Everything. No Bass (I mean NO BASS?!?!?!), no loops, no strings, no woodwinds, no FX…I mean, i was just using Garage Band a year ago and it had EVERYthing and it made me feel like a genius in less than ten minutes. Now, everything is gone and it’s HARD to use. All you have is a couple guitars, some drums, and keyboards and a bunch of dead ends in setting up your tracks. I mean, if you want to do ALL the work, you can play your own instruments into a microphone. Whoopie! What are you guys selling instruments now? Well excuse me for not owning a bass and, oh yes, an ENTIRE FREAKING Orchestra…so that I can record all the samples that used to be included. Please, just sell all the other stuff you took out as “Pro” or something. I’ll pay. I want these things back. Please bring them back. I want Garage Band back! Now, I will have to spend a year learning Logic to even come close to having the fun I used to have with Garage Band. What is wrong with you people? It’s sick. What, did the music industry bribe you to hobble the average person’s ability to make music? I literally can think of no other explanation. Just so, so, so, disappointing. Deleting from computer. Worthless.
