I'm getting an Imac, plenty of power. I have logic express. I sing and play guitar and want to record songs.

I know nothing about what else I need to plug mic and guitar into computer.

I know I know, I'm clueless! Can someone tell me very simply what I need to get going

eg microphone, and.....?

Thanks,

Ditto, What Mac Daddy said, he's been very gracious (and I hope), friend of mine!

You haven't told us anything about budget, nor your existing equipment... but please do? I also sing and play guitar, so I do believe that I understand a little about your options...

So if I may ask, what kind of guitar? Acoustic, or, electric? And! I will "give it up" to Rode microphones,... Their is no better, but if you're on a budget,...

The Shure SM 58 is the classic standby... warm, responsive, rich,... It does my voice very well!
If you've two channels to record,.. guitar & vocal,... the options are many.

Welcome, and rest easy,... YOUR music will come. There are many options to getting it into your iMac

What will you do with the recordings?

Don't take any noise for granted. With a little rythym, it could be music.
