LMMS VS GarageBand
Is LMMS a good alternative to GarageBand?Comments about LMMS as an Alternative to GarageBand
TheBeastMore of a learning curve but a great program if you can take the time to learn it.
13It does not lag when there’s a ton of sounds playing
3Incredibly more complex, not recommended for beginners
19MacGuiniIt's the closest to Garage Band for Linux. But it's also far from being comparable. LMMS may be powerful, but it doesn't have the ease of use that Garage Band has. It's professional quality. Which is why this is a horrible alternative to Garage Band.
