RE: Best sequencer for Macs
if she's just writing guitars or keyboard/pop songs and production isn't a huge requirement,
then tbh garageband is fine... you get loops for drums and other things, a palette of sampler
instruments, audio tracks, easy editing, fx. I mate of mine used garageband for writing for
signed artists.. admittedly he was a beginner to pc's, but he praised it's ease of use.
bonus is if you upgrade to logic u can afaik open garageband songs and re-tweak them. put
some money to start with in a good mic, monitors, midi keyboard.
up from that logic has more loops than ever, enuff to make backing for all sorts of music, tons
of sounds and isnt that hard to learn on a 'get some songs done' level, but honestly
garageband might be enuff
checkout the tutorial videos, it's so easy, but decent results
http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/#garagebandcheckout the s/w instrument video = very easy, and tbh thats the exact same protocol as in
Logic.. create s/w instrument track, list appears at right, browse, select, play.. easy
software instruments
