MIDI remote control only works with Apogee Gio control hardware. Real-time feedback hits a few sour notes.
Overall, there’s a lot to like about GarageBand ’11—it easily represents the best value in the musical-software world, and the moment you hit its creative ceiling, it’s easy to take your projects directly into Logic Express, the next step up in power...

Crashes some older Macs; In app purchase may cost in spite of being a prior user; Interface not as user-friendly as it should be
