I know that there are a lot of DAW's out there that are used for professional-level production and recording. I just wanted to know if it was possible to use garageband itself in the industry. If I wanted to producer or write music for artists or movies, could Garageband be sufficient? What else would I possibly need?
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7)
A couple of years ago Oasis recorded an entire album in Garage Band. They said it freed up their creative process (or something similar). Probably something worth googling.
Also, a few years ago Trent Reznor released his song The Hand That Feeds in garageband format for anyone with a Mac to remix as they please. I had a lot of fun with that one.
Sounds sufficient to me ; )
Oasis didn't record the album with GB, but the demo tracks, which makes a big difference:

And while some bands have put out those remix tracks in GB format, I doubt that they mixed the whole album in GB.
I stand corrected. Thank you sir!
A while back I heard an NPR story about a ukelele (IIRC) player that recorded an album with GB. He step-recorded the bass and drum parts and then recorded his uke.
