I have both a mac (panther) and a pc with windows xp.

I am a singer-songwriter-producer who's always used engineers.
Now i find myself traveling and want to create songs on either a mac or a pc.

I have the garageband installed on the mac and it sounds a bit amateurish.

I want to get digi and learn how to use it myself but for now the price range is a bit steep.

What kind of affordable software could I get to start making some decent-sounding songs?

Thanks

I agree, Tracktion 3 is great. It's powerful, professional, easy to use, and affordable. Since it's a recent release there are still a few bug fixes they're working on, but I've been using it with no problems on my Intel iMac.

Also note that Logic Express 8 has just been released and Apple has reduced the price and redesigned the UI so that it's similar to Tracktion's 1-window approach. I just got it a couple of days ago. Installation, set-up, and some quick recording tests went very smoothly. I've always heard that Logic had a steep learning curve, but this update seems very intuitive to me. Also, it's in the same price range as Tracktion and comes with loads of plug-ins.

Unfortunately, Logic and Tracktion require OSX 10.4.9 and 10.4.8 respectively, but the pc version of Tracktion will run on WindowsXP.
