Hi there.

I have seen on Apple.com that you can now get iLife '05 including GarageBand for £50!

Now, I use Reason 2.5 but I want a simple audio recording package to compliment my Reason and Live set-up so that I can record little bass lines and guitar riffs and the odd mix (I is a DJ as well init!)

I have 2 questions:

Firstly has anyone out there used GarageBand and is it any good for the above uses (for £50 I'm not expecting Logic quality but is it worth the cash)

Second, and most important: do I need an audio interface or can I use the line in on my G4?

Any help advice would be appretiated...

Thanks,

Angryman

My birthday is coming up, and i've already asked my wife for iLife 05. 3 reasons, iDVD 2, iMovie 2 (with HD support), but mostly, Garageband 2. All that and more for $79!

I currently use protools LE for my big projects, but i do almost all of my "rough drafts" on Garage band. It is an incredible tool for assembling ideas, and mapping out demos. You can patch your usb line in (whatever it is you use), using the soundflower back door. Most people use this for ipodding audio blogs and such.

My advice, get iLife 05. You'll need one of the other applications at some point anyways.
