Hi, whats the best software for creating sounds in Mac OS?

What kind of sounds do you want to create?

Hmm, I think this might be another bot user - no downloads, no uploads, only a link to a travel insurance site, rather generic question (often copy and pasted from somewhere else).

If not, then apologies!

Oh..
I didn't check.
Sorry.

Once in the past I wrote out a detailed post answering someone's question only to find out it was a spam account just hoping to increase their SEO rank and traffic for their site. Since then, I always check when a new account is posting so I don't waste my time again.

Maybe bot question but I think some people want answer. I use this:
Editor: Audacity
DAW: Garageband (but need Jam Packs), LMMS (but no VST)
Get sound from old software: HexFiend, Vmac Mini Emulator (with ResEdit for Class MacOS), Rezilla
Sound Programing: LLVM and GCC (C compilers for create sound programs)

Bot or not, people will read this thread anyway.

Audacity? Garage Band? Although these are nice for starting out and experimenting, I really, really suggest REAPER.

http://reaper.fm/download.php

It's a professional DAW, that can do anything and you can "test" it for free FOREVER. I have been doing it for 5 years since I was a teenager and only paid for it when I turned 23 and started making money off of my sounds. It's an amazing software with an even more amazing community. The amount of community-made scripts (that really speed up workflow), presets, helpful forum content is amazing.

And it's 60$ when you buy it... A bargain for an amazing "underdog" DAW that's being recognized more and more in the Pro Market.

Used to love Bias Peak or TC Spark...gone... now using DSP Quattro, nice software and great price, the programer was part of the TC Spark team.

+1 for REAPER

Why not use fl studio? There are also a bunch of libraries and a very convenient interface. Plus, because of its popularity, there are so many lessons for both beginners and advanced users.

Hi All,

I am the developer of The Storyteller. An application that uses Artificial Intelligence to power voice actors. Check out my app on https://storyteller.tools or on the App Store

Here is a demo video:

Garageband:
Garageband offers the same music recording for beginners and seekers and it comes free with every Mac. The app is still a great way to learn piano or guitar on a computer and allows our editors to choose.

The convenience of use: The elegant layout of the garage band and the lack of many control options make it an ideal location for those working in a digital environment. The instruments are slowed down to a graphical presentation and the menu is arranged in such a way that you will never be intimidated.

It doesn’t lack some useful editing capabilities like cross-fades, and podcasters are unhappy with the cuts in marked features over the years, but there’s a lot here to help you create great-sounding songs.
