Recording Studio

This app does a very good job at recording tracks, but it lacks the ability to choose different inputs and outputs for tracks (virtual patch bay). If you're looking for a pro suite, you would be better to go with Cubase, Cakewalk, or Pro Tools HD.

A joke. The free version has 2 tracks and won't export. The interface is clumsy and limited. Get Audacity instead.

Recorded an acapella track and tried to combine it with an imported music track but it will not save as a combined track to play outside of the app. The version I'm using is the paid version. Absolutely no help.

Folks just need to be clear that this thing will do two tracks and won't export. It's really just a good way to try out the interface and see if the paid, Pro version will be to your liking. It took me a few minutes to sort out how to navigate, but once I did I was quite pleased and it convinced me the Pro version may well be worthwhile. Helpful hint: the "Settings"- looking icon in the upper left let's you toggle among the File (which includes "import" options), Song, and Track settings. Clicking the mixer let's you pan and adjust relative volumes. Tracks can be easily dragged left and right, and clicking on them yields editing options (allowing you to snip and remove audio). Certain features like Normalize are not available in the free version, but glad to see they're there in the Pro.

Most people are confused on how to use this, I think. It works the way you imagine. The free version can use up to two tracks, and to the best of my knowledge, it saves your music to listen to outside of the app. Basically its works great.

This app is great as long as you only plan on recording piano, drums or guitar. Editing is a pain and you can't move clips around easily. There is no tutorial and overall, garageband is monumentally better than this. I wish windows supported it in the shop. Definitely not worth paying money for.
