Hi I want to play around making electronic music. I've had a sampler before so I'm familiar with the concept, but it seems like people aren't using as many keyboards synths anymore as much as just software. For example, what's the difference between Logic Pro and a synthesizer? I have a mac, do I need just software or do I need at least one keyboard for the recording. If I'm not ready to buy LP unseen, can I demo it, or better yet it and other software? I really don't know where to start to know what I need.
I need a sequencer, and synth, and effects, as far as I can tell. Eventually vocals, and multitrack but I think GarageBand is a multitrack. What's the cheapest and easiest way to get started with some synth sounds until I know what I need want? Thanks in advance. donWolf |

Peak is not a multitrack DAW, it's used mostly for audio file editing and preparation for mastering.
Logic Pro and it's little brother Logic express are full featured recording and composition apps. With Logic you can record and edit midi performances and record and mix the audio from live or midi performances. Logic contains a slew of intergrated virtual instruments, and effects. you can check out the video tours here... http://www.apple.com/logicpro/quicktours/ http://www.apple.com/logicexpress/quicktour/index.html All new macs come loaded with Garage Band an entry level DAW based on Logic, that contains simplified versions of the Logic instruments and effects. It is a good place to start, and for some the only app needed.
