second attempt got me a silent file again: I'm getting bandleader to play his processed version back to himself NOT via Cubase and tell me what works to give actual playback you can HEAR, dammit: this is frustrating as Hell and ridiculous and it's wasting my life just getting a dub.

It depends what kind of music you want to make... do you want to do lots of recording? Like vocals or guitar or drums?

Or do you want to make electronic music?

If it's electronic I'd recommend Reason just because it's such an expansive program.

And if you want to do lots of live recording I'd recommend Protools.

You must have been through some unbelievable abuse as a kid; even the best pro bands run into issues like this and keep at it and keep talking: we have a gig tomoorow night, not a deadline to satisfy you.

It's a .rared .mp3 file ~2 Meg opened up done at studio from an audio cassette of my DX-7 in 1984.
It was digitized to Cubase and runs well and hot at the studio on iTunes or Win media but is VERY quiet and UNhot on my system.
It may be just fine on a real person's computer.
File was renamed to "DX7Epitaph.mp3" today (illegal noodlings :eek: on King Crimson "Epitaph" ) , BUT, still shows named as something else in Windows Mediaplayer, dunno why.
OY.
It's ready to upload.

"...Back in the basement, the rehearsal begins. Kozmeniuk, Olak and Robertson layer guitar lines for the incendiary first single “ Same Old Song” and by the time Kaufman comes in with the relentlessly driving beat, the air feels asterix-laden. Next comes the hard-edged, anthemic “People Come On,” followed by the awash-in-guitars title track. Then it’s the boozy jukebox r&b of “Black Cat,” the big sky feel and tasteful twang of the poignant “A Line to Stand Behind,” the Pink Floyd “Breathe” vibe of lone instrumental “The New #2,” and finally the scruffy, sneering “Up in This Town,” with its indelible “guitorgan” hook. Each track rears and swipes and claws at the rehearsal space walls. The door’s hinges strain and bulge as the little room fights to contain these towering conflagrations in waiting– songs that know only to spread and consume. In “The Shells” Kozmeniuk sings of “taking back the stars from the night.” Taken out of this dungeon and given room to breathe, these songs could at least shake a few loose.

All writerly flourish and synergistic hyperbole aside, go get this album. Love the shit out of every glorious second of it, let the melodies bake themselves to the base of your brain like bottom-of-the-pot rice, let all those big beautiful chords swirl around and rough you up a bit, then be sure to check out the live spectacle, where you will be left arms akimbo, mouth agog, and with a little dirt in your smile lines.'
