Top Mac apps that I use regularly, or just what I think the top are? I do like a lot of the utilities people have mentioned, but I think the top ones for me are:
- GarageBand - this is a criminally underpriced (free) lightweight yet very powerful DAW
- Mainstage - Again, for $30, you can have amazing instruments and put on amazing concerts
- iMove - Allowed me to be able to easily edit video and be creative
- Loopback - The ability to route sound around inside a computer is a life saver when trying to combine sounds and make interesting music/audio workflows
- Numbers - I didn’t realize that spreadsheets could be lightweight and beautiful at the same time
- Messages - I know this is cross platform, but it is so nice to have that form of communication on screen
Those are a few I didn’t see. A lot of love for Drafts, Hazel, Text Expander, 1Password, Readdle Apps. But audio was a draw into the Mac, and it has a huge soft spot still.
