Apple's "Garageband"

Apple's "Garageband"

2011-09-16 by Nick Hewitt

Ladies, Gentlemen, others...

At the prompting of my missus, I've signed up for Evening Classes, organised by my local council. One of the courses is entitled "Computers: Digital Music". Apparently, the course is wrapped round Apple's 'Garageband' application. I've had a look at Apple's blurb on the subject, but it doesn't compare to someone actually using it. Have a look at...

http://www.apple.com/ilife/garageband/

A couple of questions...

1) What's it like, and...

2) Is it possible to get a version of Garageband that can run on Windows?

Thanks

Garageband is Mac only. The only way to get it on Windows is to install a hacked version of the Mac OS for Intel-processors. Otherwise, the closet thing I can think of that is similar to Garageband is Vegas Pro Audio Tools by Sony Creative Software.
