installed with no problem- only wish it had solo strings for violin, and a slide trombone- other than that lots of stuff and fun!

With Garage Band's standard-issue synth patches and loops, it was hard to make new music without using the same sounds more than once. With these Jam Packs, I can get lost just finding loops to use - which is a really good thing! Definitely worth the money!
A Great Addition June 7, 2007

After taking the time to get serious with garage band, I quickly found the need to get more instument voices for my uses. I play the music into garage band (record) with a M-Audio 66ES keystation (which I highly recommend) and found that there just weren't enough instruments to meet my needs for all of the tracks that I like to record. This product more than meets those needs, as it has a ton of instruments to use. I especially like how much more realistic they sound than the pre-loaded instruments in the original garage band. If you are more into using the loops, they are spectacular! They would work well as soundtracks for movies or slideshows, or as accompaniments to anything you want. This product is well worth the money and I don't feel as if I need to get any of the other Jam Packs. But that's just me........
Terrific instruments for Logic or Garageband with some reservations May 10, 2007

I've installed this on my Mac to use with Logic Pro and the instruments are terrific - great orchestral sounds along with a really good Steinway and some lovely organ sounds as well. While I don't use the loops they are very interesting as well and well done.
The instrumental sounds on these are really sensitive to velocity. For example, the brass sounds are wonderful at low velocities but the higher velocities are not good - too brash and the attacks are ragged. I'm a trombone player and if I played like that I'd not be happy.
Also, the strings seem to have a cresc built into the sample - not sure what that's about but it's disconcerting.
Having said all of that I'm still happy - the price is right.
Excellent April 18, 2007
