Mac Computer Recording Resources/Software

[Patrick]

Some freeware audio porduction tools that are written for Mac OSX.  I am definitely not the first guy to ask when it comes to Apples but I thought that it would be nice to have all these links in the archive...

--xACT - Decode/encode flacs, aiff, shn, wav, ape.  Also fix SBE, create flac tags, ffp's, md5s; all in one or two steps.

--xNJB - the osx driver for Creative Nomad Jukebox's of all models (including the ubiquitous JB3).  For now you are restricted to USB transfer.

--Audacity - a cross platform, very simple audio production software.  pretty simple interface, easy to use, but not as powerful as other programs.

And for remastering (add bass, treble and such) there's only Cubase?

Apologies if this is a dumb question....

Do any of the above mentions burn discs? I am looking for a good freeware for burning, and of course any other recommends.

Thanks

Toast will work, but IME iTunes does just fine with burning audio cd's.  Just make sure you have the gapless burning feature on (it's under preferences)

See I have used iTunes to rip my discs and with the importing bit rate set to 16bit they show up in iTunes at 14111, is there something I'm missing?

BTW +T for the recommends.
