Very impressed by Garage Band 2008
I didn't realize how awesome the experiment was to play with Garage Band '08 on my Lenovo until today. There are several things that really impressed me:
* The latency of audio playback from my laptop's SoundMax sound chip is very low. I can totally foresee myself cranking some simply music out using just the laptop itself (with musical keyboard).
* The user interface is so intuitive. Everything just make sense when I use it to record music.
* There's not much learning curve on the application. Within today I already cranked out a few okay short tracks.
* The sampling and loops that comes with the application is very professional. Standard Apple quality.
* The application is powerful enough to create a decent work, yet not overwhelmed by features.
* I can use my MidiMan 2x2 with a cheesy MIDI keyboard to create some real work.
Bottomline: awesome.
