Hello! Been looking to get in to some recording at home - nothing serious yet, just being able to record and listen, maybe be able to record a couple of tracks on top of each other. I've been looking around a little bit at what is out there but figured I would also check in here.

I'm looking for something to hook up to a computer. I have a newer Dell laptop, and an older MacBook with GarageBand. Currently I'm using a first-gen Apogee Jam into GarageBand, and it's ok. There's the smallest bit of delay between when I play and GarageBand registers the sound, but it's enough to throw me off if I try to record more than one track, for instance a backing track and then trying to jam over it. I'm hoping it's just outdated equipment.

So I'm looking for a go-between for the guitar and computer, and if there is any software out there besides GarageBand that does the same sort of thing.

Thanks in advance for any insight!
