If you have ever used a modern mac you know they have a program call garageband built in.

Garageband (for those of you who don't know) is a very powerful music creation program and is very close to the best in the business for the price range.

I'v been looking for a program like it but for the PC and couldn't find one... till now that is!  I hope those of you who like to create music like this link!

What is this program used for "specifically?"
Can we make MIDI files for our projects by using this program??

Really? I find that hard to swallow. I happen to have GarageBand, which I don't actually like all that much ('course, i'm not a great musician). It is way better than searching around for a crappy PC/Linux alternative.

I'm on a Mac, and I can't dual-boot. No WinStuff for me.

But I got the *actual* GarageBand free with my Mac.... I don't see how I lose, other than being a white nerd who has nothing better to do most of the time than to play Warcraft and read Orwell...

I found some MP3 resources that I am going to use in my game...I guess MP3's are really the better thing to use, it's just that to actually make your own (solely for the purpose of your game); you would need your own god damn philharmonic, Lol...

MP3s have superior quality, but suck at filesize compared to MIDI.  A game's worth of mp3's can easily be 30-60 MB.

Not when zip'd!

average mp3 is about 3MB.  Average MIDI is about 12 KB.  No amount of zipping can close that gap.

Nah. Mac is what rich people use. I can't afford a Mac book, but I can afford a normal laptop. :/

True, that... *shakes fist*
I guess pro-ness coincides with paying for pro-ness. Or something like that. :<_<:

MIDI size (or lack therof) really pwns. <3 :haha:
