Joseph Gelinas writes "Speaking out for the first time on life after AOL/Nullsoft, Winamp creator Justin Frankel sat down with BetaNews to discuss his new endeavors. Starting a new company called Cockos, Frankel is leaving behind the mass market for his musical roots, but hints at revolutionary -- and presumably controversial -- things to come."

    GarageBand is supposed to do on-the-fly filters. And I know Soundtrack does. Apple has been very staunch about on-the-fly effects not only in Audio, but video as well. GarageBand comes with iLife for $50. Soundtrack is $199. Neither of them will lighten your wallet too much.

    I guess Jesusonic might be easier to control on-the-road than having a point and click computer to process your effects, but that is the only bonus I see to having it rather than a computer. But since it has a keyboard, I'm skeptical. If this was meant for the studio, I'd rather have a computer.
