What's Hot

The introduction of multi-take recording, supports 24-bit recording and export

What's Not

You're stuck with only nine musical styles, doesn't support lyrics

The Final Word

Magic GarageBand is the flashiest, but certainly not the richest new feature in GarageBand '08. Multi-take recording, arrangements, expanded effects, and automation make this version a more capable tool for musicians. While we found little kinks in some of these features, overall they're quite useful. Though not specifically intended for podcasters, those producing podcasts benefit from such new GarageBand features as enhanced and expanded effects and automation.
