  1. Well, Garageband is a cheap version of Logic (with a bit of Soundtrack and other features thrown in for good measure): http://www.apple.com/logicexpress/garageband-to-l

    I really like its guitar effects, built-in instruments, Soundtrack-style loop composition, and ability to host any AU plug-in (add Crystal, Alpha CM, etc. and you're in synthesizer business for cheap!)

    IPad connectivity is awesome for Garageband or any music software since it gives you multitouch mixing and fader (and control) automation.
