hello~*
i'm an acoustic guitarist/singer/songwriter. i want to make a very basic live recording onto my iMac, which runs OSX. i don't need tracks or editing or effects....i just want to be able to make a rough demo of a song or two so a friend can hear what i've been up to. do i need special equipment or software, or is there a way to do it with what my computer came with or some freeware? i do have a standard (non-computer) mic. help? and thanks.. -LE |

i have a powermac 64 w/ os10.2.6 and i have downloaded audacity. i will check out spark, too.
i haven't tried running the guitar directly into the g4. i was trying to run a mic into the g4 and just place the mic in front of the amp. that doesn't seem to work, though i understand that the old apple mic i have does not work with the g4 input? i can't make any chagnes in audio midi, it seems. its just set to the default settings and it gives me no other menu options. looks like i have to buy an imic . . . |
