- ajchavar, on 01/05/2008, -0/+8garageband is a damn good audio editor. before i did a lot of audio editing, and was on PC i used audacity, which is a good program in its own right, but garageband is a great consumer, and even prosumer application, it can do some things in one click that takes some digging to do in soundtrack pro!

- VFRick, on 01/06/2008, -0/+3I've been using GarageBand for two years now to create my award winning podcast. It is a fantastic program. I really don't understand people that trash it. I've tried Audacity. It is OK, but I far prefer GarageBand. Sure, Audacity is free, but free doesn't mean better.
Don't like GarageBand? Fine don't use it. For me, it works great. - seinman, on 01/05/2008, -1/+3Yes, but other things the article mentions (such as keeping organized, proper panning and levels, and using compression and EQ) apply regardless of which OS you're using
- ozydingo, on 01/05/2008, -1/+3If you have CoolEdit and ProTools, what are you using Audacity for?
- windyridge, on 01/05/2008, -2/+3This useful since my kids have a garage band. I just got done editing one of their performances.
- mentorwarrior, on 03/08/2009, -0/+1This is a cool instructional. Podcasting is so obviously the new frontier in broadcasting. The catch is that even if you have something interesting to say, you need to say it in an interesting way. If you are interested in a career in voice-over or online radio check out the Radio Connection. They match you with a mentor which specializes in your area of interest, whether is is electronica, Djing, hip hop, or talk radio. http://www.radioconnection.com for more info !
- bradkovach, on 01/06/2008, -1/+211. Don't use GarageBand. It's buggy and proprietary.
try Audacity. It's free, and it works. - roguescout, on 01/06/2008, -1/+2Attention half-ass, terrible-sounding netcasters!

That is a good starting point. Don't stop there.
Please attempt to learn at least the basics of recording before throwing your audible feces against the ears of the world.
Good content would also be a big plus.
Thank you,

Sorry. Added a, "l" to the link. ;) - MuppetMeat, on 01/05/2008, -3/+2yes
- neodorian, on 01/05/2008, -3/+2Pretty cool but I'm not buying a $1200 computer to run this so it's still Audacity, CoolEdit, and ProTools for me. Garage Band is a pretty cool program but it's not an option for most computer users nor should you have to buy expensive hardware just to get the bundled software. We need more good apps like Audacity that will run on a Windows, OSX, or Linux PC, not just OSX.
- suave1, on 01/05/2008, -8/+4Umm.... how exactly is this useful for both PC and a Mac?? Isn't garage band a Mac only software?
