I love to play live more than anything, but my location makes it hard to find like-minded musicians to gig out with. I have found that I am enjoying learning how to record at home and love the challenge. I am using both Reaper and Cubase SX3 for software.

I prefer to work with a click track as a reference. I find that I can still give it a good feel with the click, and it makes filesharing easier if everyone is using the same tempo map. I haven't learned the black art of Quantizing yet, so the tracks are what they were played as...............
I pretty much have my evenings free 7 days a week, and really only work 1-3 days a week during the day.
