Even though I have used Ableton in the past and have created a few tracks with it, I have decided to start off using the GarageBand software which comes with OSX . I know Ableton has all the bells and whistles anyone could want, but I’m not sure I need something so involved at this stage.
Maybe once I feel I have reached my creative limit with GarageBand I will move back up to Ableton, but this time around, seeing as I haven’t even managed to record anything I like the sound of yet, that is definitely a long way off.
GarageBand comes with loads of sounds, seems simple to use and works with the USB XioSynth without any problems.
Currently, the Mac is downloading updates and sound-banks for OSX and GarageBand which total over 1.3GB, so its going to be going for a while.
