Wanting to make decent multi-track recordings at home with my own music equipment and software and computer. I have an iMac 600 MHz with 512 MB of RAM and I'm running OS 10.2.8. I have the Audiophile USB sound interface. Would want to record music with vocals or without sometimes. Would like to be able to burn to standard CD format (AIFF). Thanks for voting, and thanks for any additional comments!

Thanks for your reply garzita and your input. Your findings on Intuem and Tracktion are similar to mine. I have found Intuem to be buggy and slow. Tracktion is simply to use and has many features for the money. I don't mind the interface, and yes the balloon help is annoying (you can turn it off though!) but helpful as you learn it. It's nice to work all in one window for the modest things that I would like to do. Metro SE I have not downloaded, but would like to try it and confirm if it's for me or not.

Cacophony I have not used. Will check it out!
