Garageband, Just received Garageband Options

Hi. Just received Garageband as a part of iLife.

The Grand Piano has string resonance and has been wonderfully sampled.

There's only a little midi latency. Though midi worked right away, with out changing any settings.

It's amazingly good stuff for beginners and children with a little talent will be able to make impressing things with it.

I wish it had been there when I was 15.

And it's really easy to make simple demos with it.

It's the kind of thing that has some restrictions (to keep it simple) that could evoke a lot of creativity.

I got Garage Band a week ago and absolutely love it. Sure, it's missing a few things, but it's a very high quality program that is an inspiration to use. Previously I was using MicroLogic AV and Pro Tools Free under OS 9.

Most of the sounds in GB are great. I wish there were a clarinet, oboe and a few more string choices. Also it would be great if there was a little more MIDI features.

I am having one problems, however. Whenever I export a file, the iTunes in OS 9 automatically opens rather than my Panther version. I moved the Garage Band document folder to my backup drive for space reasons. I wonder if that's the reason?

But way to go Apple!
