Hi everyone, i recently stumbled accross this forum when I was looking for stuff to make music with on my mac. I've read a few of the other "newbie" posts of people asking how to get started, but these people either had other equipment or previous musical knowledge. Let me say that I know nothing about music
 I own a acoustic guitar though, still learning to play after a year and a half (got a few chords down). I have a tibook running OS X (OS 9 is on there if needed) and I wanted to make/record some music with it. I've mostly been thinking about making some synth pop'y type stuff. Can someone help me get started. I figured at the least I would need a drum machine type program, synth program and something to lay down some tracks with. I don't have any musical training or anything, but I always have songs in my head  Also, I'm a student, so I'm *really* low on cash, so if these program suggestions could be reasonably priced or free that would help Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Hi im 13 years old too. I used Pro Tools free for months before upgrading to Cubase. You can find Pro Tools free at http://www.digidesign.com/ It's good for audio and ok for MIDI. You will have to get some harware to plug in your guitar however.
Korektphool PS im a rapper and made some songs using Pro Tools Free |
