    If you had to pick between the two, which one would you side over to?

    Audacity - it's free and cross-platform

    I haven't done a whole lot with Audacity, but I don't think it really compares on the same level as something like Garage Band or Logic Pro X. I've heard Audacity can do multi-track recordings, I believe, but for one thing, I don't think Audacity has a library of virtual instruments that can be played with a MIDI keyboard/controller like Garage Band & similar programs have.

    GarageBand can even be played on the on screen keyboard as well on the iMac and on the iPad you touch the necessary notes or chords on the instruments themselves. Pretty neat I must say.

    Actually Logic Pro X has a multitrack mixing console similar to the ones in the studio.

    Fair point but most of my audio work tends to be editing rather than creating from whole cloth. The other point was that both options run solely in one OS.
