hi guys... i was wondering if you could help me out here....

i work for the support department of a religious association and the association is looking to upgrade their daw to improve the quality of their products and productivity....

in our media department, my collegue records the live preacing into his pc and processes the audio... to finally burn the end product for backup...

my boss has asked me to do some research on daws and what actually goes on inside of it.... so that we might take a technical approach to either upgrading our present daw or getting something completely new...

being a pc user, i've found a lot of info about how to tweak my pc for optimum performance and what actually goes on inside of it.... the same goes for linux (although i'm not a linus user)...

but now, my boss wants to look at mac as an option too.... but i know absolutely nothing about it.... i've heard that this is what the pros use for daws... but i would like to know why???

n other words, why is mac so powerful, are the softwares that it offers good and user friendly.... what are the recommendations for a mac daw for simple speech editing and mutlitrack analogue recording in terms of HW and SW and why...

do you guys think you could help me out or at least direct me to a place where my quezies could be answered...

thanx a lot......

ok Jan Erik...

you mentioned about recording using garageband... but what about speech processing, like applying denoisers and what not??? is garageband good enough???

GarageBand is very basic - also on vocal processing. There are only different reverbs. You would have to preprocess in hardware or postprocess in a different program. Or even better: Use Logic Express.

Logic Express is inexpensive and has a lot of inserts: High-pass filter, Low-pass filter, high and low cut filters, equalisers, compressors, noise-gate, denoiser and more.
