Garage+Band

Garage Band is an audio recording program that comes free with most Apple computers. It is a simple program that works with tracks that you can add and layer. It comes with multiple instruments and effects. To record, you may use the built-in microphone or you can switch to a built-in input.

I have used this a lot for any personal music project or for other audio purposes. I have only begun to scrape the surface of what it can do. It is actually quite extensive for being a fairly cheap recording program.
