Although GarageBand rules, I have to say I was extremely disappointed that there was no option to map the keys on its floating keyboard to your Mac’s keyboard for those of us who don’t own / wish to buy a USB/MIDI keyboard. I mean, how about the number keys 1-8 for all 8 notes per octave with shift for flats and fn for sharps? In any case, for now microSynth can be used as a $20 solution for this missing feature of GarageBand.
Personally, I think I am going to hold off spending $20, and instead use it for when I can upgrade my guitar to one of Gibson’s midi-capable axes!
UPDATE: Thanks to Christopher for pointing out that MidiKeys also works for this and is FREE! Thanks, Christopher!
