Garage Band to Join iLife Line Up

Another thing that Apple announced earlier today at MacWorld Expo is an addition to the updated iLife '04 software suite called Garage Band. This is a digital music editing tool which allows you to integrate royalty-free music clips called "Apple Loops" , synthetic instruments playing parts of a musical score, and physical instruments connected to the computer through USB or MIDI.

Whether you are a musician or not, this looks like a powerful edition to the iLife '04 media creation environment. The impact of Garage Band on video entertainment produced with tools like iMovie and iDVD should be large. Also, Garage Band will probably be added to the repertoire of people who create business presentations with tools like PowerPoint or Keynote.
